Do 'low odor' dry erase markers really have no smell?

Not quite. Across the reviewers we read, low-odor formulas are noticeably milder than older alcohol-based markers, and r/Professors threads describe them as classroom-safe, but verified-purchase reviewers on Walmart and Staples still mention a faint chemical smell, especially with a fresh marker. If true scent sensitivity is the concern, low-odor is an improvement but not odorless.
