DOES NOT SMELL!  Used Hundreds of times.  Great Gift!
LOVE LOVE LOVE these.  I was gifted one during my wedding planning time as a little relaxation/de-stress gift.  I ended up using it frequently either just to drape over my shoulders or to heat up and put on my chest for warmth.  I've also used it for cramps and I've put it in my bed when it's cold before I get in there and its SO nice and cozy.<br /><br />Best part is that I've heated mine up hundreds of times and it doesn't smell.  I used to hate the smell of the other filling in these types of products--after a while it would smell like beans or corn or whatever the filling is inside.  Also love that the outer part of this is easy to remove and wash!<br /><br />Got these two particular ones for gifts.  The lavender smell was nice and not at all overwhelming.  The colors were perfect for law enforcement family Christmas gifts.
