What perfume were you wearing? I'm asking that seriously. I'm curious.

Is it really possible to be isolated from other Blacks to the point that you would honestly have no clue what the NPHC is before you pledge somewhere else? I mean, even if you are living in the middle of Whiteyland, I'd guess you'd have some extended family that isn't.

Yes, just as there are Blacks who spend 24/7 with (usually lower income and socially isolated) Blacks and have never heard of the NPHC until they go to college.

Pretty sure it was a Bath & Body spray of some sort.
