Would you say something?
There's a salesman that comes in to see me every now and then. Thank God I don't do a lot of business with his company.
Anyway, the guy must bathe in cologne. He leaves a wake of Lagerfeld everywhere he goes. I smell it everywhere after he leaves. It's in my damn throat because of how much lingers in the air. I could taste it. YUK! I stay as far away from him as I can but I still smell it on my clothes and dread shaking his hand. I'm still gagging and I washed my hands 4 times since he left an hour ago. I've come very close to saying something to him but don't want to embarrass him. I don't know him very well. I can't imagine his employer has never said anything to him. It's bad and I'm not one of those hypersensitive types. Would you say something?

I would go to the employer. I don't know the nature of the relationship, but I'd say contacting the 'home office' over the individual would be the way to go.

 I would pave the way by giving the guy credit for all the good qualities he has. What a good salesman he is what a nice person he is, ect ect. Then say there is just one thing that concerns us and that is.....

Tell the guy whatever he is selling to charge $75 less and to go out and buy him some Chanel Allure for men. The Stetson starter kit isn't too appeal even if it's Tom Selleck wearing it.
Be bold he'll thank you in the end.

 Seriously, just ask the guy how much he weighs, then ask if that number is before or after he puts on his cologne. See what he says.

Avoid getting on any elevators with the guy. I don't know what's worse in an elevator, sweaty couriers or excessive cologne/perfume.
He probably isn't aware of his vapour trail. After a while his sense of smell gets dulled to the odour so he keeps putting on more to achieve the same apparent level.

When you see him coming, everyone in your office should put clothes pins on your noses and put of pictures of Pepe Le Peu. He'll get the hint.
 I would probably approach him in a friendly manner and ask him what fragrance he is wearing. Compliment him but tell him that a couple of people in the office are very sensitive to environmental things and that you have had to make accommodations for them and it's a PITA for you as their employer but you've had to do it and gently ask if he could tone down the cologne (aka "whore lure") when he calls on your business. It's not the whole truth but it's probably the nicest way to tell him to stop bathing in the stuff. Me, I'm a Brut man.  Do they even make Brut anymore?
