I love these sheets and you can't be this price for a belgian linen set. So glad I bought these instead of paying double the price at other retailers. I don't know why some other reviewers thought these were scratchy- they aren't at all! They feel like soft linen. I 100% prefer these to cotton percale sheets. 

Right out of the package, they do have an odd chemical smell. I just sprayed a nice scent all over and the next day after sleeping in them, the smell was completely gone. Also, these seem to be getting softer each night I sleep on them. Happy sleeper!
