I wish you could try stuff beforehand in a quiet place to see if it's gonna bother you with annoying quiet noises. Unfortunately that's not really a thing. Luckily electronics has gotten better over time but a lot of stuff still does it, just usually less.

I get this with pretty much all perfumes, scented candles, tobacco smoke (oh god the tobacco smoke) and extinguished matches and candles.
With some people I wonder how they can exist with so much perfume poured over themselves that I can't breathe while walking behind them. I just don't understand.
An upside of being smell sensitive is that it helps with debugging electronics. Burnt parts smell very obvious, and I can even smell hot stuff like heatsinks.
