I agree with this. In the past, it used to be that older women using Estee brand perfumes (which all seemed to have an extreme floral scent, similar to that experienced next to the casket in an overheated funeral home environment) were the worst offenders.
I used to work in an office where an older gal (unknowingly) used too much of the stuff, and there was a "gray zone" around her where no one wanted to sit. She toned it down a lot when asked by the supervisor, and probably did not know that she was doing it in the first place, as she was a heavy smoker to boot.
However, as of late, it seems to be the young men who do this to extremes. I also have coached youth hockey, and I noted that the older kids ("midgets", for those who know the various classifications) who had discovered girls were wont to douse themselves with "after bath" concoctions that are every bit as strong as those prepared by Estee, only in "non-floral" form. Thankfully, by that point in the day, I was through with them.
When my own son started in on this phase, I had no end of arguments about the intensity of the stuff (and the amount that he was applying). In the end, we compromised by having him put it on in his car rather than in the house.
