I’ve never seen that SpongeBob gag either. But Mr Bean is a real person and people do have perfume sensitivities and allergic reactions. (My father had an ugly clash at work with one woman who apparently wore a lot of perfume and he was convinced was causing him headaches and other problems.)
I mean, it’s a joke for a reason. SpongeBob had its “daring escape through the perfume department” gag, too.

Sorry, yes, this is what I was also getting at, that the joke has basis in reality. My comment was not worded very well.
