Eucalyptus and clove oils will cover just about any other smell. Well,
very nearly cover it...olive oil of any sort smells rank to me after 4
hours. Japanese have a word that refers to Americans as "stinking of
cheese". They don't eat cheese, so they smell it on us. I don't use
olive oil often, thus can smell it on other people. No one can smell
their own scent, but it's recognizable to everyone else.

What's your fav henna? It sounds unlike anything I've bumped into.
It's also possible that you have a very acid ph to your own skin and
sweat, and that would affect the henna. The same henna takes very
differently on different skins....we've all got a little different
chemistry. My fav henna goes deep bittersweet to rust and walnut on
myself, but it's occasionally different on students and clients.
