This is all pretty much junk science. Calling all fragrance "toxic" is just plain stupid. " Chemical fragrances" - guess what - we are all MADE of chemicals! Everything on earth is! And yes, some fragrances contain those "evil" substances mentioned, and some do not. And if you say, "Oh, I just meant artificial fragrances," that does eliminate anything! There are some perfectly natural things that will trigger my asthma - some of which smell good, and some which have barely any smell at all!

And that's just one of these.

And no, Catty1, I do not live in a remote area that necessitates bottled water, or in a drought=prone place - far from it! Living in a very old city with lead-lined pipes means lead leaches into the "tap" water at various steps on the way to my house. I value my brain cells, thank you! I use bottled water for drinking and cooking.
