Though when new the pillow would have an unpleasant synthetic scent, but the odor would fade over time. The pillow circulates air so the face doesn't get hot and uncomfortable. Generally they cost around $50.00 though the prices may vary depending on the manufacturer and retailer.
Memory foam travel pillows can be firmer in winters and softer in summers depending on the chemicals used and the overall density of the foam. Always get a good density foam and never compromise on the price. A 4 lb memory foam is recommended. This is a high quality memory foam at an affordable price. Lower density memory foams just don't have the memory feel of a 4 lb foam, and higher density foams are more expensive and also have a stiffer feel.
