Summary: A MUST READ!
Review: Every woman worries about getting breast cancer because there is such a high incidence rate in this country: NINE out of TEN women will get breast cancer. One has to wonder why; certainly, our doctors can't (or maybe "won't") tell us. After reading this book, it makes perfect "scents." I never knew perfume, cologne and products that have "fragrance" in them contain deadly carcinogens (in fact, the very same ones found in tobacco smoke). This book contains convincing and legitimate scientific and medical data confirming that fragrance chemicals are also composed of neurotoxins and teratogens (which cause birth defects).

I also was educated as to why so many people have asthma, RADS and migraine headaches.

The unequivocal evidence presented in this book reveals the fragrance industry has been testing its chemical products on US -- the unsuspecting consumer -- and, despite the industry's mass fortune, the results of their "roll of the dice" have been debilitating illness, disability and death to millions of innocent, unaware people. The fragrance industry has violated every federal law, including the Toxic Substances Control Act, and, as usual, our government has done NOTHING to protect the public.

Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down. I read the entire book in one day because it captured my attention 100%. Immediately after reading this book, I threw away every bottle of perfume and all products that had "fragrance" listed on the label. Folks, we're talking about pure POISON -- far worse than pesticides -- and we're putting it right on our skin which makes it go directly into our bloodstream, and then we are forced to inhale it in the same manner as second-hand smoke. At least tobacco smoke can be avoided in the majority of public places, but perfume vapors are ubiquitous and completely unavoidable, especially in places where they should be banned, such as hospitals and medical facilities.

I encourage every woman and man to read this book in order to protect your health and that of your children and loved ones, then share it with everyone you know who wears fragrances. After reading this book, I guarantee you will be OUTRAGED ... Contact your local and state representatives and, most importantly, the FDA and DEMAND that the FDA punish this unscrupulous industry for its heinous crimes against mankind. We are human beings, not guinea pigs.

AND, FOR GOD'S SAKE, WHATEVER YOU DO -- DON'T BUY THE PERSON YOU LOVE A BOTTLE OF PERFUME OR COLOGNE FOR CHRISTMAS!!!

Summary: FANTASTIC & POIGNANT--A MUST READ BOOK!!!!!!!
Review: This book is a "must read" for anyone who cares about protecting their health and that of their loved ones. This book will tell you some shocking information about the toxicity of fragrances of all types including perfume, body lotion, etc. Just like it took years for people to realize how harmful cigarette smoking is, in the same way, it is also taking time for the American public to get educated on the fact that fragrances can cause debilitating health problems to those who wear them and those who breathe them "second hand". If you'd like to know the truth about how dangerous perfume is, I highly recommend this book! After reading this book, it makes me think laws need to be passed to make public places "fragrance free" to protect the health of all of us, and especially children whose immune systems are especially vulnerable to the toxic chemicals found in fragrances. The info. in this book could save you from experiencing health problems down the road. I can guarantee you that the perfume industry will not want you to read this book to find out the truth as they stand to lose considerable profits once people know the truth. I hope you find this book as informative and helpful as I did!

Summary: A MUST READ!
Review: This book is scarier than a Stephen King Novel, as it contains TRUE FACTS. It astounds me that our government doesn't do something about this atrocity. All people are at risk, and it's no wonder that people are being diagnosed with Alzheimers, breast cancers, and all kinds of neurological diseases at earlier ages, and it will keep getting worse. Also, I had no idea that millions of people live lives like hermits due to hazardous perfume chemical exposures. This is a book that all people should read. I found the information very disturbing, especially when I think of children and unborn children.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Real Eye-Opener!
Review: Until I read this book I had no idea as to how fragrances and chemicals have so severely affected the health of so many, nor did I realize that we are ALL being poisoned unknowingly. This book "tells it like it is" including the author's own testimony as to how her life has changed, how confined she is by not being able to be out in public places due to all the fragrances and other chemicals everywhere. There also is documentation and research done on the subject to verify and stress this seemingly unknown growing problem. Hopefully people will read this, as I have, and change their habits before they too suffer the drastic consequences experienced by so many.
