I don;t use a respirator, but I also use Ecoresins or water washable resins, and they have very low odors. I recommend AnyCubic Ecoresin.
Unfortunately odor level != poison/voc levels. Even though I am not following my own advice and don't use full on respirators while resin printing, it's still wise to use it at all times not depending on the train type.
Ecoresins definitely have much lower VOCs than most resins, so they are safer. And odor does strongly correlate with VOC level since there are very few VOCs that are odorless.
On a separate tangent for me, working in a chemistry lab I breathe in way worse shit, so I don't care about some resin, the long term damage is extremely minor.
