PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The Portland City Council approved a new policy Wednesday to make all city offices fragrance-free.

KPTV reports the policy aims to protect workers with conditions such as asthma.

All employees are asked not to wear perfume, cologne or after shave and to avoid strongly scented deodorant.

Violators with too much scent could be disciplined.
