Thomas threatens to cancel wedding to Paula over perfume and deodorant

Thomas, 31, and Paula, 41, are preparing to marry after Paula moved from São Paulo, Brazil, to Long Beach, California, following their meeting on a vacation. In the Season 12 episode of TLC’s reality series 90 Day Fiancé, the couple argues after Paula wears deodorant and perfume, which Thomas says trigger an intense sensitivity to artificial scents. He describes the smell as “the most pungent and obscene thing” he has ever encountered and insists it is a non‑negotiable boundary for their relationship.

During a cake‑testing segment, Paula reveals she plans to bring eight family members to stay in their apartment for the wedding, prompting Thomas to suggest arranging a separate hotel room. He remains upset, saying the arrangement does not respect his needs.
