I agree 100% with this advice about not spraying them with fragrances. It's an issue for me because that stuff really lingers and is unpleasant. I am experiencing this issue with Amazon deliveries in Canada. When covid happened, they started using fragranced air fresheners in their warehouse. What this means is that all items now arrive reeking. For items that are shrink wrapped or boxed well it's not that bad because you can just quickly remove the covering to the trash and the interior is ok, but items that intentionally have a hole in the plastic bag to prevent humidity, etc. from building up, the inside fills up with the fragrance and your cables, etc. will reek. Some materials will absorb it more than others.. steel is not porous and you can wipe it with alcohol or soapy water but something like plastic, it will cling tenaciously. You shouldn't have to wash a new item though..
I did try to raise this as a complaint with Amazon. The rep agreed this is an issue, and then nothing ever came of it.
It's too bad too because if you look at the cannisters, they have warning labels with the toxic symbol on them warning that exposure to them can sensitize people and cause reactions so their employees are experiencing the brunt of that.
