I have used Peel and Seal as well, never encountered an odor and it did seem to cut down on some noise, even though I only did the front doors and slider.  Then again after doing any extensive work I think you're inclined to think it worked.  I also have the jigsaw puzzle exercise mat squares over the engine compartment which I think helps alot and doubles as a ground cover for emergency repairs.  Of course I got that biggest decrease in cabin noise by fixing the exhaust and slowing down.
