The biggest and more recent phenomena is the (at least in Sydney, Australia), the popularity of ambroxan(?) laced perfume. You can't walk into a lunchroom or walk down the street without being literally assaulted by the stuff.

I don't know what perfume makers are thinking, but this stuff makes my day unbearable at times.

I guess a chemical with super strength sillage works in the market...
