Yes, it took till a quarter to June before I had to keep the windows open, and now how I miss the 15C highs of a week ago (currently to be our lows for the foreseeable future, if we're lucky.) Because nothing is more nauseating than the smell of lilacs mingling with my neighbour's strongly scented fabric softener, blowing in on the faint evening breeze.

Is it a case of one or the other alone would be tolerable, but together they just clash?

No, alas. It's that the fabric softener stinks to high heaven always, and the heavy smell of lilacs (always a little overdone, even if pleasant) gets mixed up with it and makes it worse.
