Etiquette of The Week

SMELL GOOD Tango involves being in very close contact with another person and that person deserves to smell a clean you. Be showered, wear deodorant, wear clean clothes, and have gum or mints on hand. Perfume or cologne are not always a good idea. If you plan to wear some, apply only a light dab or small squirt.
