One of the reasons I still mask. An N95, while not perfect (an N100 with a carbon layer would be the real ticket), blocks a lot of the common scents. Things like those dangly air fresheners every ride share driver has about 5 of.

Sad how masking has become such a bugbear[1] that this eminently sensible and practical solution is somehow controversial.

You're right. Almost every Uber driver has one and I immediately worry about the sneezing, headaches, and wheezing.
