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.

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.
