But Unilever, which makes Lynx, also warns on the cans against over-spraying and says it must be used in well-ventilated places.

A coroner said people should read the warnings and be aware of the dangers of the products they are using.

Dr Andrew Hitchcock, who performed the autopsy, said: "There is a very reasonable assumption that the passive inhalation of the solvent almost certainly led to his death." The Derby and South Derbyshire coroner, Robert Hunter, recorded a verdict of accidental death, saying he was satisfied Unilever gave enough warning.

But he said: "I do not know how many people read the warnings about exposure awareness. People need to know about the risks that these products have on the cardiovascular system."
