Scentsy makes me cough
My co worker has a Scentsy warmer and she keeps it going all day....my office is in the room beside hers with no door closed between us...I smell the warmer. I cough sometimes throughout the day and my nose is all stuffy, but if I walk in her office nearer the Scentsy burner...I start coughing like crazy.
She has observed this...but still uses the warmer every day all day long. It sends me into coughing fits and I have to step outside to breathe.
It's worse when she adds a new bar...but it doesn't improve alot even after they have been burned for a day or so, it is still irritates my sinus.
Reason of review: Bad quality.
Location: El Dorado, Arkansas

a) its a warmer, not burner
b) ask her to stop using if she doesnt go to hr. your health is more important!
Yes! My neighbor give me one as a housewarming gift.
I turned it on before having some guests over, and was sitting about 10 ft away. I started coughing and gagging and couldn't figure out. (I used to smoke, so the coughing didn't bother me at first, until I realized...) but I turned the scentsy off and went outside.
My breathing cleared up immediately.
I'm wondering if there is some compound that some people are more sensitive to when this thing burns.
There are many different scents available. If one is bothering you you might try a fruit scent - citrus
Really ? -_- That's not a complaint about Scentsy it's just unfortunate you react to it. Maybe ask your co worker to turn it off, that's probably the first step explain to her you react and ask her if having it at home is enough or address the boss/HR of the company and get them to deal with it, your a grown up right I'm sure your capable !
Sounds like a workplace issue, not a Scentsy issue. Talk to her.
Have you asked her in a kind way not to use it in the office? Have you shared with her that it irritates your sinuses?
She may not realize your cough is the result of the fragrance Scentsy puts off. Personally, I love it but it doesn't irritate my sinuses as it does yours.
That should not be a complaint against Scentsy. People have the same reaction to flowers... Do you have a complaint against nature here as well?
