[quote=Anonymous]OP, I would tell them that you have developed a sensitivity/allergy to certain smells. Say you haven't figured out the specific cause, but the sensitivity causes you to feel ill if people who you are around for extended periods use laundry detergent that isn't fragrance free and hyperallergic. Ask if they would mind terribly if they washed their clothes with (insert name of detergent like draft) before the came or you'd be happy to do it for them when they get to your house. I have a strong sensitivity to smells and I'm clear with family members not to wear perfume when they visit me. This way you are saying you are the problem and asking them to help. Say you're asking all overnight visitors to do this an apologize profusely for the inconvenience. I think it's their clothes. Also mention that you only have fragrance free body washes in the house.
