How do I tell a coworker that her perfume is too strong?

That is a tricky question! I think it would be easier to say that perfume is too strong if you knew that the person was sensitive to perfume and had this sort of reaction in the past.  But maybe there is a better way to handle this? I don’t know how to advise here.

What? I'm the one who is sensitive to it.
user
Yes, but if you’re allergic to perfume or have a “no perfume” policy at your workplace, then it would be reasonable to gently warn your coworker.  Can you tell me a bit more about your company’s policy on perfume?
assistant
There is no official policy.
