From the lighter side:
In Peru, it is often illegal to smell many things. Peruvians are
very particular about who gets to smell what and will not allow
anyone with suspicious motives smell certain things. It is often
dangerous to attempt to smell something so if you are at all
unsure, then consult your nearest Peruvian authority to confirm.
Crimes of this magnitude include but are not limited to; listening
to hispanic music, eating overly spicy foods, being eaten by wild
tigers or being stripped of your clothes and left in the Amazon to
fend for yourself.
