Hi Kaz,
Well, I struggled with these things to and basically ended up going from one product to another until they became intolerable. Washing powder was a huge problem and still brings back those memories now. (Although I actually did little washing whilst hging).
I think the 'simple' range has little odour (although with a hg nose you can detect strong smells in everything!). However, I remember finding fruit smells ie apple soap or strawberry shower gel etc, much more tolerable than perfume fragrances. Also, on this topic, I found childrens' fruit flavoured toothpaste worked better for me than mint when I could brush.
Really, though, I could smell everything so it was swapping things that kept me going, when they became too much IYKWIM.
