I was very excited when I first received the leggings (yesterday), but all I had to do was open the package and the awful smell hit me full force. I removed the leggings thinking it may be the packaging itself, but to my disappointment and disbelief, it was the leggings producing the obnoxious, strong gasoline smell! I immediately put them back in the package and prepared them for return (which I did today). I would only recommend this product to someone who doesn't have a sense of smell.
