Odors can cause tension headaches or trigger migraines. The type of smell that causes the problem is all individual to the person.

Some migraineurs can be triggered by any strong smell. This includes strong deodorants, hair or body sprays, candles, strongly scented detergent/fabric softener, certain foods being cooked, etc..
