'Feminists like me are physically suffering because perfumes permeate our environment uncontrollably.'
Humans have been perfuming themselves since ancient times, but the nineteenth century production of synthetic compounds is what really created the industry—and which poses a massive problem. Recent scholarship documents that there are three types of neurotoxins—phthalates, synthetic musks and sensitizers—and that perfume and cologne contain them.
If synthetic musks are in the water supplies of cities that make up the majority of sites for manufacturing—for example, Coty cosmetics manufacture in Phoenix, Jovan has been manufacturing in Chicago since the 1960s and Perfumes of the World, based in Dallas, Texas, makes Dior and Calvin Klein fragrances—that means that we don’t just have contact with these neurotoxins when we smell them or apply them.
Multiple chemical sensitivities , which manifests with the very symptoms I described earlier, is defined as a “[s]yndrome where individuals experience adverse, often debilitating, acute and chronic health effects when exposed to any amount of an offending substance.
