I wouldn't like my kids to smell perfume too much as I am scents sensitive and odor for me is a big thing. But I would have never thought of asking this question!! Should definitely have though!

I got a few visits from really nice smelling parents and kids, but smelling too strong. It bothers my nose! lol!!! So I never called them back.

To answer you question, I would tell her, the way you told us. Tell her you do not want to lose her, tell her you didn't think about asking this perfume question but now that you are faced with the nice smell but too strong for you, you sure would appreciate if she wore less or none.
