I live in a PV and can smell my neighbor’s, too, which doesn’t bother me — hers is pleasant and not overpowering. The way PVs are built/vented, the vent is directly across from the sliding glass door on the side of the patio. It’s unavoidable.

Our annoying fragrance smell is from the rental next door. The rental company used to do all their laundry at that rental. So we would have that smell all day long. I'll bet the owners of the rental don't know they have a big electric and water bill for some unknown reason!

It would be an additional cost but you might suggest running the vent pipe up the wall (assuming it just comes directly out the wall now from the dryer) and up to the roof line to move the smell up and away? It might also help move the noise up to be less noticeable. Just a thought and possibly a shared cost with the neighbor since it’s not necessarily going away with the next owner or the one after that so kinda your investment to?

Wow, does that mean if you keep the slider open, the smell will come into your house?

Have you already talked with your neighbor? If not approach them kindly and let them know that you have allergies to the dryer sheets they are using. Maybe they would consider changing to a different brand? Or, possibly dryer balls? Dryer balls are less toxic, save on drying time, are gentler to the earth (and in this instance more neighborly.) Good luck, I hope your neighbor is willing to work with you.
