Office neighbor's Body Odor

March 2006

My office moved to a new location and I have new cubicle neighbors. My cubicle neighbors don't bathe often and their body odor permeates my cubicle. I did a Web search and this topic is discussed everywhere but I could not find solutions. I don't want to move desks, and I don't expect them to change how often they choose to bathe just for me. I acknowledge that there are many different reasons people don't bathe everyday. So is there anything I can use to neutralize the odor but not perfume up the air too much? I don't want to trigger anyone's allergies, so I was thinking of a drop of lavendar oil on a tissue? Some lightly scented potpourri? Any ideas?


Speak to your boss! You are not the only one affected by this odor I am sure. Have no other co-workers mentioned it? Just as if someone were smoking, wearing too much cologne or perfume, or had bad breath, body odor needs to be addressed and corrected. Regardless of the person's bathing habits/beliefs/needs - they are now out in the world and need to be aware that they impact others negetively!
Sensitive nose knows!
