Good product, I did not notice any particular odor. However I put only 3 stars because of the delivery. Indeed, I received this product the first time, the package was damaged which is not serious in itself because not fragile, but cardboard and pillow smelled of beer, this is the factor that told me to refuse the package. The cushion or the cover are wrapped in plastic. It is greener, but it's true hygiene side, suddenly ... Anyway, just over a week after I received the product again. Still wrapped in plastic but this time will not smell or tasks so deplore nothing to say. Go through Amazon it's still good!
