I am allergic to most perfume. It gives me headaches, makes it hard to breathe, etc. Do you think I can wear this without it bothering me?

I wish someone had been able to answer your question because I have the same problem. My preferred brand of stick deodorant is discontinued, so I'm considering the Lavanila Grapefruit one, but it's kind of pricey if I buy it only to discover that it triggers my asthma (which is what happened when I tried two new off-the-shelf brands). Since you asked your question several years ago, have you tried any of these products since then?

Just like all their products, it is a light, light scent. Does not interfere with other scents you wear.Even if you have problems with allergy perfume smells, this does not react that way.Hope this helps!

I never bought this device, but people in the office still continue to wear excessive amounts of perfume and cologne. I do wear a tiny amount of natural oil that does not cause me headaches. The offenders in my area are primarily men - two in particular. The cologne is so strong and there seems to be some particular ingredient in these colognes and perfumes that bothers me; not all scents give me headaches.

I'm sure you can use it both ways. I wear on my skin as perfume. Love it :)

Absolutely false. The fragrance was strong enough that I could not use it due to my allergies.

My smell is sensitive also. There is a very light smell but does not bother me. I would have thrown it away. Love the feel on my skin, it's great.

I don't smell it anymore, and I don't remember it being an issue for long. I have migraines, so I am sensitive to odors. It has not been a problem for me.

I am also sensitive to fragrance (in terms of smell and not skin irritation) and just opened the package---my first reaction was "darn, these are scented." The scent isn't horrible (I don't really like any perfume), a little more natural and I suspect it will lessen with wear and/or leaving it out of the packaging.

Whether the perfume "stays" or not has to do with your body chemistry. I have bought it here and I have bought it at Dillards several times and it does NOT stay on my skin. I have to spray my hair and clothing to get it to stay. Some medications also have an effect on that. I loved this bottle I bought as much as the one from Dillards

I am sensitive to smells and chemicals. I bought this to use on a relative and have had no problems with the smell or anything else. I like it a lot.

Thank you for this. I was wondering, as I have a chemical sensitivity that is not an allergy, and can have severe physical reactions if exposed.

Wow, thank you so much. I appreciate your input. I am suffering from near-daily headaches at work because of the amount of cologne and perfume in this place. I've tried to talk to HR, but nothing has worked. No one thinks their perfume is bothering anyone and people seem to take direct offense when I mention their perfume gives me a headache.I've been around some of those units that emit ozone and wow, they smell worse than the smell they're trying to cover up.Again, thanks for the input. I really appreciate it. :D

Extremely strong perfume smell. My boyfriend commented "you smell nice" after getting into bed with this on my face. I think it's way too much scent, but he liked it. I'm sensitive to perfumes, while it was annoying, it didn't make me get a runny nose of congested, and also didn't cause a rash, so all in all, annoying but not harmful.

Yes. I have been wearing this perfume for about a year now. I use to purchase it at the large retail chain and paid double the price for it. Great price, the real product, great size as well.
