I don't get upset with people who don't use them. You can't warn for every possible trigger. One of my worse triggers is this specific type of cologne. Can you imagine if you had to go around shouting out how you smell so as not to trigger anyone? But when people do add the trigger warnings, I always appreciate the effort. Even if it's not something that specifically bothers me. It's just nice to know that people care.
According to the bottle I smell like David Beckham. I'm sure he actually uses a better quality aftershave though.
