Seeing some allergies can be deadly, I favor reasonable accomodations.
The definition of reasonable is up for grabs.

For example, accomodating a peanut allergy on an airplane is more reasonable to me than going overboard at a school. On an airplane, even with an epi-pen, you dont have immediate access to emergency services. Thus, an accommodation seems reasonable. Then again, you cant stop people from bringing there own peanut butter crackers or trail mix on board.

If a kid at a school has such a sensitivity that all peanuts and peanut vapors in a 10 mile radius (exaggeration here)need to be eliminated, it is reasonable for your child to be tutored at home or attend school via teleconferencing. That seems to be a reasonable compromise.

On the other hand, there is a big difference between a true severe allergy and something that may trigger an annoying reaction. For example, flowery perfumes can trigger an allergic response in me but it wont kill me. I usually remove myself from the environment and problem is solved.

For someone in an apartment building to request everyone stop using anything scented is unreasonable to me.

Common sense, when it comes to adults, seems warranted. Marinating in your favorite scent may not be pleasing to others, or appropriate in an enclosed space....use your judgement.
