With this discussion about perfumes, seems like an appropriate place to offer a PSA about phthalates. Perfumes often contain phthalates, which are endocrine disruptors. Exposure can be very harmful to a developing fetus and young children. It can create problems for adults too.

Phthalates are pervasive too in soaps and shampoos, where it's hidden within the ambiguous "fragrance" item.

There are phthalate-free options for soap and shampoo, and a quick google search indicates the perfume industry is starting to offer more products without phthalates. Phthalates aren't the only nasty chemical used for scents. Parabens are another, and maybe more I'm unaware of.
