Do these have any sort of odor or fragrance?

They smell like citronella and lemongrass oil. They may smell strong initially when you unwrap them, but the odor soon starts to fade.

They have a very mild scent initially, i'm very sensitive to smells but these did not irritate me, and they worked very well in the Amazon of Peru!

A slight citronella-like odor. Not too bad, only noticeable right at first and occasionally later when near your face.

They say fragrance free...but everyone who has tried them have said they smell gross.

No, ours didn't have any smell to them. My mother in law would notice that kind of thing too. Maybe you got a wrong batch? :o( That's terrible though.

I really dont know, however they do have a slight smell (more than likely just the paint).

I haven't noticed any particular odor. They are not plastic, they are silicon.

I certainly have not detected any odor and am entirely satisfied with them and think they are a particularly good buy.

Don't notice any odor, but that may be because I run them through the dishwasher. Sometime microwave them. Love them.

I noticed no smell at all, and I purchased them several months ago. Hope this helps.

They are made of wood, and no they do not smell funny. I did have 2 pair warp on me but that may have been due to poor usage on my part.

although I read on some of the reviews that they did have an odor, I personally did not experience this. Mine smelled just fine. In fact, I bought these to replace some that I had washed and caused to develop an odor.

I haven't noticed a smell in mine. But I never smelled them right out of the bag or anything.

No they did not have any plastic odor upon opening them in my opinion. I was impressed with the quality of them, they feel more like fabric than plastic to me.

Not one that I've ever noticed. They are definitely not "scented" like some trash bags out there, if that's what you mean.

They look and feel like polished wood. As far as I can tell, they don't smell. If you really sniff them, however, they do have a faint paint smell but thats because the ends are painted and have a finish on them.

We've never noticed an odor. We use them in our home wood burner, handle them without gloves and have never had any problems. They're easy to light and burn for quite a while. I won't use anything else since finding these. We can buy them locally at our Tractor Supply Co. store, but Amazon is much cheaper, even with Shipping!

The set that I purchased is unscented. They give off no fragrance whatsoever.
