Steinemann A (2019c) International prevalence of chemical sensitivity, co-prevalences with asthma and autism, and effects from fragranced consumer products. Air Qual Atmos Health 12(5):519–527 Fragrance-free environments receive a majority of support (see Table 4). Among the general population, 47.8% would support a fragrance-free policy in the workplace (compared to 20.4% that would not); 51.4% would prefer that health care facilities and professionals were fragrance-free (compared to 22.1% that would not); 60.7% would choose a hotel without fragranced air (compared to 22.1% with fragranced air); and 64.8% would choose an airplane without fragranced air (compared to 16.1% with fragranced air). Thus, in all categories, more than twice as many people would prefer fragrance-free environments and policies as not.

Toward this goal, a practical approach would be to use products without fragrance (such as fragrance-free products) or to obviate the use of fragranced products (such as air fresheners) (e.g., Steinemann 2017b). Another step would be the listing of “fragrance” on the label for all types of consumer products (not only for foods, drugs, and cosmetics) so that consumers know whether a product contains fragrance. A further step would be a more complete disclosure and understanding of the specific ingredients in a product’s “fragrance.” Weinberg JL, Flattery J, Harrison R (2017) Fragrances and work-related asthma–California surveillance data, 1993–2012. J Asthma:1–10 Study of 42 fragranced baby products: shampoos, lotions, hair sprays, and fragrance. The GC/MS analyses found 684 VOC occurrences, representing 228 VOC identities. Among these VOCs, 207 VOC occurrences, representing 43 VOC identities, are classified as potentially hazardous. Notwithstanding the regulatory protections on full ingredient disclosure, products can be chemically analyzed to determine their constituents. A set of studies analyzed volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from common consumer products, both fragranced and fragrance-free versions, and green and regular versions (Steinemann 2015; Nematollahi et al. 2018a, b, 2019; Steinemann et al. 2020). Products were randomly selected from stores in the US and AU, although the same or similar products are also available internationally. Product definitions for these studies are as follows:Steinemann A, Goodman N (2019) Fragranced consumer products and effects on asthmatics: an international population-based study.

Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) in section 3.2 will also contain details of the main hazardous components. Among the general population in four countries, 32.2% of adults (34.7%, 33.0%, 27.8%, and 33.1%, respectively) report health problems when exposed to fragranced consumer products.

Fragrance has been used for thousands of years, with the intent to create a more aesthetically pleasing environment and more popular consumer products. However, in recent years, fragrance in products has been associated with adverse effects on air quality and health, despite extensive tests for safety (IFRA 2020a). What is perplexing is why products designed to be positive may be creating unintended effects.

Green products” are considered products with the claim of “green” or a related term such as “organic,” “natural,” “no petrochemicals,” “certified green,” “certified organic,” or “essential oils” for the entire product or specific ingredients. “Regular products” are the products other than those in the “green” category. Fragranced product exposures, with associated frequencies of reports of health problems, include but are not limited to the following: IFRA (International Fragrance Association) (2020a) About the IFRA standards. https://ifrafragrance.org/safe-use/introduction-enjoy-confidence. Accessed 27 August 2020 What are possible differences in effects between different forms (enantiomeric compositions) and different sources (natural, synthesized) of chiral terpenes as found in products? Health effects from exposure to fragranced products can be considered disabling, according to legislative criteria that define disability in each country (ADAAA 2008; DDA 1992; EA 2010; DA 2008). Across the four countries, 9.5% of the general population, representing 29.1% of fragrance sensitive individuals (49.5% US, 17.1% AU, 25.5% UK, 24.2% SE), report health effects that can be considered disabling (Table 3).

For vulnerable sub-populations, the exposures and associated frequencies of reports of health problems (% relative to each sub-population) include the following: Steinemann A (2018d) Exposures and effects from fragranced consumer products in Sweden. Air Qual Atmos Health 11(5):485–491 The most common fragranced product VOCs (> 80% of products) were limonene and beta-pinene. The most common fragrance-free product VOC (100% of products) was ethanol, which was also in fragranced products. The most common potentially hazardous VOCs (> 75% of products) were ethanol and limonene. No significant difference was found in the emissions of hazardous air pollutants between green fragranced products and regular fragranced products.Lunny S, Nelson R, Steinemann A (2017) Something in the air but not on the label: a call for increased regulatory ingredient disclosure for fragranced consumer products.

Accessed 18 April 2019 For fragrance sensitivity, the survey asked, “Do you experience any health problems when exposed to (specific fragranced product or exposure context)?” If the respondent answered yes, the survey then asked the respondent to specify which health problem(s) they experienced. An individual was considered to characterize fragrance sensitivity if they reported one or more types of health problems from exposure to one or more types of fragranced consumer products or exposure contexts.
