He doesn’t wear cologne, either
October 28th, 2008
Once upon a time Troy and I were at Target doing some household shopping. Troy was almost out of shaving gel, so it was on our list. I was standing in the aisle waiting while Troy opened various cans and sniffed the contents. “I really like the scent of the one I have at home, but I don’t remember what it’s called,” he explained.
“Do you remember what brand it was? The color of the can?” I asked.
“Mmm…not really, they all kinda look alike,” Troy replied. He went on with his task and smelled a couple more shaving gels. Then he hit paydirt.
“This is it! I found it!” He tossed the can into the cart.
“Well, what scent is it? Tell me and I’ll remember,” I said.
Troy grabbed the shaving gel out of the cart and twisted it around so he could read the label. “Let’s see, it’s…unscented?! Oh, man.”
I still tease him about that.

Ha ha ha! That’s my favorite scent too. :)

That is an absolute classic.
Unscented does smell good though.

That is hysterical! Jeff used to do cologne, but after my pregnancy with Meredith something shifted in the atmosphere (or perhaps my nasal cavities) and I don’t ‘do’ fragrance well anymore.
THAT is a funny story though!
Brenda sent me shots of the tea set - oh my, sooooo pretty. I love how soft and airy the blue turned out!

My husband doesn’t wear “scents”. He usually picks sensitive skin varieties in most products (although he hates the word “sensitive”). But we have similar discussions at the store, he’ll need to replace a product that he’s been using and likes, but doesn’t remember the brand or specifics. I always say the same thing, “Tell me, so I can remember.” :-)

My favorite scent too! Seems like a lot of us like unscented. :)

I love it! I’d never let him live it down either. :)

Ah, the smell of “Un”. A classic.

The “Oh man.” response made me laugh the most, haha.
