Indian Woman Highlights 'Smell Harassment' Awareness in Japan

Imagine you're in a public place, and someone's perfume is really strong.

In Japan, people are very considerate of others, and strong smells can bother people.

This is called 'sumehara,' or smell harassment.

An Indian woman shared her experience in Japan, where she learned that strong perfumes are often seen as inconsiderate.

In Japan, it's common to use lighter, more subtle fragrances to respect others in public spaces.

It's about being mindful of how your actions affect those around you.
