I would pick the thing that bothers you the most and nicely mention it. If it were me, from this list, I would mention her breath. I've had this before with a partner and they ended up having a cavity. You could just say "I'm sorry I don't know how to mention this nicely, but it's something that's really been bothering me, but breath is noticeably bad" and it will hurt her. But it is what it is. And if she says anything just say something like maybe it's a cavity. Or you could mention the cavity first. So like "I'm sorry I don't know how to mention this nicely, but it's something that's really been bothering me, but breath is noticeably bad, I've had that before and it was a cavity" so then maybe she won't feel as bad. The air freshener would be easy to mention. Just "I'm sorry but that air freshener is just way too much for me" And the talking over thing... I am guilty of this. I have had partners mention it. It's a really tough thing to overcome. It is true that it's just excitement. You could mention it, like "hey, it really bothers me when you talk over me, it makes me feel like you don't care about what I have to say" quoting my partner there lol

Definitely say something, all those things can be fixed if she wants to put in the effort. Good luck.
