does it have an odor?

It smells like menthol. I personally like the scent. It does completely go away once it's fully absorbed.

The active ingredient is menthol so it has a menthol aroma that dissipates as it evaporates.

Slightly mint but the scent dissipates rapidly. It's nowhere as aromatic as BenGay for example

Biofreeze has a mild menthol odor when applying but the odor disappears quickly and becomes unnoticeable.

Yes, Bio Freeze does have a fragrance, but it is not as strong and long lasting as products such as Ben Gay-I do not find it unpleasant.

Yes, it has a menthol odor but is absorbed quickly and doesn't have a greasy feel like BenGay.

We have used this for a long, long time, and I have not noticed an odor. I have been very pleased with it. Great size!

When I first recieved the foam pad and lad it out in a Spare room., Yes it did have an odor. After after about 24-48 hours the odor dissappears. I absolutely love my foam and have had it for about a yr.

No, I didn't detect an odor. I am very sensitive to scents and I did not have that problem

I don't recall it having a strong odor. If it had a smell at all it was very minimal. I'll check again this evening when I'm home and reply back for certain.

I don't recall it having much of an odor. The salmon formula doesn't even have a strong odor.

I didn't notice any odors. It does come in plastic packaging that may have some odor at first.

No, there is no odor. It is recommended that you wash it before you use it though. Mostly that is just because it is vacuum sealed so washing it will loosen the fibers and release any possible odors that are left over from the packaging process. I washed, dried, and put it on my mattress the day it came and have no issues.

It does not have a strong odor at all. It may have a slight scent, but it is pleasant not at all bad.

Yes, it does have an odor for a few days. I laid it out in my guest room to relax after unpacking it, and after the 3rd day, most of the odor was gone. Once it's on the bed and it's made, there is NO odor noticeable at all. I'm very sensitive to odors, and this was a big concern of mine. But, it worked out so well in our camper, I just ordered one for our bed at home too.

We didn't notice any odor, but we did let it air out for 2 days before we put it on the bed. It is the BEST mattress topper we've ever had!

I have not noticed any odors or smells but this isn't my primary device so I don't use it a lot. I will deliberately check it and if there is any strange odor I will comment back. :)

Not at all--and I'm very sensitive to those kinds of odors. It's in my finished basement with limited ventilation, and I sit near it when I knit and there is no odor.

I'm not sure how helpful this is, but we also bought one 6 months ago, I can't remember if it had an odor but if it did it doesn't now. I'd wipe it down if you haven't and leave it in an open space to air out and see how it does.

No, I can't say it's had any odor since I opened the pkge and put it in my small closet. I would have noticed pretty quickly if there was any kind of smell. Hope this helps!
