So I’m in the gym and a woman has just walked past me a few times, nothing in it at all…but she smells amazing, we have barely looked at each other but her perfume is all I can smell.
My question is…can I tell her that or is that seen as “gym creepy”??

I always comment if people smell good, male or female. Same as if someone is wear a cool pair of glasses I will ask where they are from. It’s a good thing to make positive comments to someone, they maybe having a shit day, you saying something positive may turn their day round . |

Absolutely this...why not give someone a genuine compliment, it's a kind thing to do. |

I ask because I’m same, I’m there to wrk and I ignore most people when I’m there and it’s rare that I notice people.
In any other setting I wouldn’t hesitate to tell her she smelt good….but I said nothing. |

As a lady who’s had guys come up to her in the gym please don’t say anything. It’s creepy and makes us not want to go back to the gym (I actually stopped going) we are there to work out not get hit on.

I think it's less horrible when people realise their right to comment on how someone looks or smells isn't always welcome or appropriate |

Granted, but since when has it been a bad thing to compliment people, if we’re working out and someone passing by compliment by saying something like “looking good bud keep up the good work” it would probs make my day. Nothing in my head would automatically think ohh there being a creep and after me.. |

Can you see how, at the very least, it might make someone uncomfortable and put them in a position where they feel they'd need to reply when they'd really rather be left alone to go about their business? |

That's probably because you haven't experienced the 'compliments ' some of us women have. It tends to make you wary especially if you're somewhere where you want to just get on with whatever you're doing e.g. work, gym, reading a book on public transport. |

I'll be honest, I would probably find it creepy from a man I wasn't speaking to but wouldn't from a woman if she approached in the same way.
Just a perception thing. Maybe see if you can get her attention with a smile first. |

See the thing is there is ways of approaching girls in the gym and ways of not doing it and telling her how nice she smells is definitely a not if you really want to talk to her wait till she is having problems removing weight that the men have left on the leg press or she could do with a spotter plenty of girls ask for help in our gym you just have to pick the right time |

The fact you need to ask answers that question. You just need to look at social media to know what a hard time women can have at a gym, why make it any harder for her.
Saying she smells nice is effectively chatting her up.
If a women said you smelt nice, you'd not assume it was an innocent compliment. |

Honestly…it was never a way to hit on her.
She smelt good and that was it, I’m glad I didn’t say anything.
I shall continue to ignore all people in the gym. |
