Scented fabric. What do you think?

available in apple, lemon zest, milk & honey, peach, pineapple coconut, pink sugar, strawberry, & watermelon. (nope...don't know what pink sugar actually smells like).
advertised as good for for quilting, aprons, & home décor.
just like scratch 'n sniff....sort of.

Would you try it? :shock:

FYI: I have never seen or smelled this. Just found it online.

I have asthma, so this would not be for me. Also, if you used it in something you'd want to gift someone, they might also have a reaction to smells. I like my fabric "plain," but if you think you'd enjoy this (it is a novel idea), go for it, and enjoy!

No thanks. There are so many fake scents that are just ....well....gag.

I have problems with scents triggering migraines, so I'm another that would not be interested.

I would not try it, or go anywhere near it. I would hope to not have someone make me a gift with it.
many people are very sensitive to fragrances, I think warnings would need to be printed all over it. :(

I , for one, think it might be fun. I can’t do parfumes either, I had to stop wearing them years ago, but I do like some scented soaps and things. My hubby said he thought it would be fun for doll clothes. Interesting thought.

No, never. Not only would I not buy it, I could not even shop in a quilt store that stocks it. Very bad idea.

not for me.

I wouldn't buy it. There are too many conficting scents in household products for my taste as it is. I wouldn't want to add any more.

I too would say "no thanks". Too many chemicals out there already.

Not for me. I use unscented detergent and dryer sheets because I dislike scented linens and clothes.

I’m another one who can’t tolerate scents... so no.

I like scents, but I don't like paying for something that doesn't last.

I’m trying to imagine what it would be like to work with... surely your hands would end up smelling in a very concentrated way (and maybe even your tools?) More than anything that’s what would put me off

I love fragrances and I love the smell of clean fabric however I’d like to be in control of how it’s scented on my end with detergents, softeners and ironing sprays.

I’m not averse to scented products usually, but I wouldn’t buy it. Fabric isn’t Kent to be scented. If I want it to smell, I’ll use fabric softener.

I can only wonder what the chemicals in the fabric would do to it over the years.

No way, no how.

No. Just no.

No, I'm sure that the "scents" are full of chemicals. I make all my own body and cleaning products using essential oils
and other natural products. I don't even buy laundry detergent.

Last time I bought stamps they offered me scented stamps, I think they were popsicle fragrances, orang lemon and lime. Regretted buying them......the poor postman having a bag full of those scents.

No thank you, I would not buy it.

I think it's a fun idea, but I probably would not purchase it either. Since I prefer to make scrappies, most of my fabrics sit around for a long time, so I doubt the scent would last until I used up every last scrap. Plus, I wouldn't want all the neighboring fabrics to end up scented.

I wouldn't buy it. The odors would possibly stay for some time and give the other fabrics the smell. Just my thoughts.

No way! I have fits of sneezing if I just stay in a quilt store for more than a few minutes.

You know how things first smell good....then after smellingit a while, it’s gross. It sounds like a headache for me.

I'd run away in the opposite direction and pity the LQS that decided to carry it as it could easily drive customers right out of the store. Many people have fragrance sensitivity and can't tolerate that kind of thing. I can't even use laundry detergent that is scented and can't remain in that aisle of the store for any length of time. Some scents I can tolerate ok like SusieQOH uses in essential oils. But the chemical fragrances and many perfumes I can't tolerate and become physically ill from them.

Not for me. I have so many allergies, I wouldn't want to risk a reaction.

No, some perfumes give me headaches.

Oh no!! I try to find things without scent or much of it. too many together make a terrible smell.

Wouldn't, couldn't do it. I have a terrible allergy to most fragrances, laundry aids, cleaning agents, candles, potpourri and especially Glade plug ins. Some will put me into a coughing fit that will take me to my knees. I don't go near the aisles in grocery store where they sell any of that stuff. And if I need something unscented that is in those aisles, I get an employee to get it for me. Multiple chemical sensitivity is becoming a major problem causing asthma in many and in all ages. Some fabric stores I can't even go into. So you can believe I'd skip this 'new' idea.

It might not be a bad thing for some batiks. They can really have a bad odor.

No, fragrance is one of my migraine triggers.

Sounds like a migraine to me.

No, would never buy it, I do have a problems with many scents, the artificial chemical ones and certainly wouldn't use that fabric for a child, too many chemicals.

Buying online and not able to pre-sniff. No thanks. The suggestion for an apron--well, maybe. Or for potholders but definitely not in a quilt or something pulled closely.

I would be concerned it would trigger reactions in others that came in contact with it. Nor would I want it in contact with other fabrics or surfaces in my sewing room.

I was thinking it might be nice for potpourri bowls.

Most of my quilting is for charity and scented fabric would not be appropriate. It might do very well for say a bridal shower/wedding gift IF one knew the recipients were not allergic.

I have stopped wearing my colognes and perfumes because there are so many people who have chemical sensitivities. If I want to add scent to something, I would use a natural product IF I knew the receiver would appreciate it. Personally, I have enough trouble finding fresh air to breathe these days.
