I have a sensitivity to strong perfumes and perfumed products as well. Some people at work wear strong perfumes and too much of them. I can tell if such a person has walked by my cubicle earlier in the day because the smell still lingers. These strong perfumes make my airways constrict a little, making it harder to breathe. Thank goodness I am not allergic to them but I do have to leave my cubicle for a while sometimes for a few minutes if someone like that has walked by.

As for shampoos, in the past I had a sensitivity to Head and Shoulders and switched to baby shampoo. Even Johnson's still bothered me at that time, but Baby Magic was wonderful - - however, I don't think Baby Magic shampoo is still made. I still have an unopened bottle of it that I tucked away years ago. Meanwhile, my sensitivities have receded and I have gone back to "non-baby" shampoos, specifically Sauve Natural in the coconut scent.

I was surprised to see that both Baby Magic products and Sauve Natural shampoos rated so high at that website. Most shampoos that rated low looked like they would be hard to find in middle America, and expensive.

I use Tide Free detergent for my laundry. Why throw another scent into the mix?
