  • A perfume allergy occurs when the body has a hypersensitivity reaction to certain chemicals within a perfume or fragrance. Perfume and fragrances are not just found in colognes, they can also be in numerous household products such as cosmetics, soap, and deodorants. Everyone’s bodies react differently, due to this there is no way of knowing how one’s body will react to certain perfumes or fragrances. Certain people with the allergy receive various rashes or skin irritations, whereas others can develop much more severe symptoms such as anaphylactic shock. The treatments differ depending on the reaction. Some may only need a simple medicated lotion to calm down the rash, whereas others may need to be hospitalized and given medication to cure their symptoms . Avoiding this allergy can be very difficult because even if someone doesn’t put on the perfume on themselves, they can still have a reaction by walking by someone or something that has perfume on. It is also a tricky process to find out what it is exactly that a particular individual is allergic too. All perfumes are made with different chemicals, as well as different combinations of chemicals which can make it tough when trying to pin point the allergy. Some common chemicals to look out for are acetone, cinnamyl alcohol, and benzyl.
