We limit the fragrances in our house due to toxicity concerns. Does anyone know what fragrance/chemical this company uses to make the baby smell?

I don't know the chemical or company but we have extreme allergies and are sensitive to smells in our home and the doll has caused no problems whatsoever. In fact, my grandchildren love these dolls so much that this is the 5th one I have ordered.

This doll smells like baby powder. Not a heavy smell. It's a very light fragrance.

I never did! And when it's time for a washing take it to an organic dry cleaner. I made the mistake of washing it at home on a gentle cycle and it made it have a very strange smell for two or so months. I finally got rid of the smell by laying flat in the sun about every day! My baby loves his lamby!!! Fits in the b.o.b stroller as well. I also use it in the grocery cart underneath the baby cart cover for added comfort for him!!!

I just purchased this. When it arrived it was the ADVANCED formula with FRAGRANCE. I called the sending company and they said that GOJO-PURELL has discontinued the ORIGINAL (unscented) but has used the same item numbers. The selling company is going to contact Amazon to request this item picture be changed. I am very disappointed with this switch. Why do companies give "new and improved" when we like the old product better?!Another clarification note: Upon use, it has a strong rubbing alcohol odor (like the original)--when that dissipates the scent is very, very mild, nearly unscented...but there is some scent included.

It is not fragrance free. The bottle itself makes no claims of "fragrance free", however in the short paragraph description above it says fragrance free. It's not. The scent is similar to baby powder.

I don't know if I ever knew that, when my son is done we just rinsed them with cold water and let them air dry. They've never smelled. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.

I returned and refunded it. It's toxic. Why poison the kid? I did air it out and even washed it but it made no difference. Get rid of it!

Based on the answers given here, I decided to purchase this product. I am extremely allergic/sensitive to fragrances. I was shocked by the very strong synthetic fragrance of the spray! Don't buy this if you want a fragrance free product.

There are some instructions on the label for the use of XO Plus. I use it for many things in our house, and it works very well. This is a concentrate so you do not have to use a large quantity to eliminate odors.

I had the same problem, poor kitty would dig and dig trying to cover it up, and tracked like crazy. Then the last fragrance free box I got at petsmart smelled like febreze, super strong smell that gave me a migraine. A friend and I went to the store and checked all the boxes they had and they all had a strong scent. The store just said 'it happens, complain to arm & hammer', though they did offer to refund me if I still had the receipt. I went with Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat also, so much better. Clumps much better, hardly any dust, doesn't track as much and zero smell.

Using the mixed scents are a great way to get more baby for your buck. Especially if they are being used for medicinal purposes. They work wonderfully in the bath or as an aromatherapy treatment without having to do the extra work.

I don't remember if did had a smell. My baby still uses his and I bought a toddler one as well! Love it!!!

An item called "De-Slov-it" and it will leave a Citrus smell...sold on Amazon even :) Use Goof -Off if you want to catch a buzz (it smells toxic) and want to use overkill (Goof-off does Rock).

I unfortunately disagree with the other opinions about the smell being tolerable. I found it to be rather strong and it lingered both on the carpet and in the (rinsed) unit the next day. I am hesitant to try it again, but would opt for a less-fragranced cleaner like Folex.

1tbls concentrate to 1/2 cup witch hazel or distilled water for spray bottle. Use a few drops in water or try baby bath/ water mixture. Your smell preference really

I've used Allen's Detergent & Charlie's Soap, but I think any biodegradable soap would do. The phosphates in other soaps leave residue preventing the diaper's absorbancy, and ultimately irritating baby's skin. You also need to use a stripping detergent like Sensi-Clean or Sports-Wash every two months to keep them from build up and bad smells.

I did not find it to smell like baby powder. It is a very soft, subtle rose scent. Not offensive at all.

Not at all! I was 5 mos pregnant when we got it and had a nose on me that would put boodhounds out of business and I did not detect any scent on it, bad or good :)
