Do these smell, is there substantial ventilation needed?

I have only lit these to make sure they worked for a few minutes but did not notice any odor. The flame was pretty high and burns more brightly than a regular candle.

No smell, and only the usual precautions regarding open flame. These are very clean.

No smell, and you just need to take care like with any other candle or open flame.

It nothing but a candle so check the Dollar tree store because I paid a buck each and 7% sales taxFor indors in an emergency consider the very hyper white LEDS Amazon has.The only thing the LED's give of is bright light BOB LECH

No, they have no scent at all, since they use oil instead of waxed candles I have written them stating they are candles is an inappropriate way to advertise their product with no reply from them. There is no odor, and whatever ventilation you have in your home should be more than sufficient. Just understand these are oil lamps, not candles made with wax.

I bought them for my sons and have not given them to them yet so I don't know. Sorry.... but you ask a good question, and now I want to know also.

I have them inside my linen closet to organize the shelves in the bathroom but my bathroom does not get that steamy. Good ventilation, etc. They have been working fine so far. So I really can't speak to them being exposed to moisture.

I have not noticed any smell. I encased them in a housing. The backing is a peel off 3M tape. I've used it in a cabinet without a housing and have had no problems.

Yes. Slight odor which dissipates within a few weeks in well ventilated space.

I haven't noticed any smell. I wear them in the water so much it seems unlikely an odor would persist.

I have used them on pillows in the guest bedroom, and have not noticed any odor, and have not had guests comment, so I would say no.

Yes, we had 2 and both did smell when they first arrived, kind of mixed things in a warehouse. We left them out in the garage for a month or two prior to use them. Later, we did not experience any smell. Or perhaps we were used to it??? Now we do not need them but keep them just for camping. Good luck!

Yes! It took me a little while to air out the kitchen and I was kind of sorry I put them in my new oven. They didn't smell afterward though, but you still can't eat out of them, and I wouldn't wash them.

ours did not have an odor. Maybe febreeze and leave the door open to air out?

Hi CatGirl; I have not noticed any lingering smells at all. These are far superior than any house I've bought before .

I would recommend leaving them out overnight in dry weather to "air out" or add a small dose of freshener. The sacks do indeed have a scent.

No, no smell at all! These are heavy duty too! I could not be more happy with my purchase.

Not at all. I do not believe they smell at least I do not have an issue with them I would by these over and over again.

Yes, just let them sit outside for a few days, I use them in the winter, don't have a problem with the smell at all.

I didn't have odors in my closet so I couldn't say. But the sent isn't strong enough to smell unless you use a lot of them. Also depends on size of closet. But I have used them for years and they do protect wool from moths and other bugs that like wool!

To be honest, I never noticed a strong smell when I purchased them a few months ago. I definitely don't smell anything on them now.
