Most natural scents I can take easily. However, I have one iris, very heavily scented, that gives me headaches when it's in bloom. Cannot do the laundry aisle at all, candle areas, perfume counters and the like. Deodorants, hand creams, shampoos, etc., all bother me too. My daughters know this and do not wear scented stuff around me. To get around the laundry issue, I make my own homemade laundry soap.
