Does anybody make  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
a men's liquid shower gel/soap that doesn't reek to high heaven?

I'm trying to convert my dh from that God-awful Dial that stinks up the whole house. He thinks he needs a deodorant soap, and I can't find anything that doesn't stink so bad it turns my stomach.

Is there a natural product that isn't girly smelling or strong smelling?

I tried thinning his dial with unscented Dr. Bronners to make it less potent, but the DR. Bronners was too watery and made it too thin.

Oh, gosh, I feel for you. My teen is in the reeking stage right now with his "Axe" products, lol. I cannot use the bathroom after his grooming rituals. At least he doesn't have BO.

Does he think the fragrance is what makes it a "deodorant" soap? Or is he ok with less scent? There are unscented liquid soap bases available online. Maybe you could buy a gallon and dilute the Dial with it. It would last a long time.

scroll down, the third product from the bottom is an Extra Thick Shower Gel - unscented.

I think that's the route I'm going to have to take. He swore the unscented Dr. Bronners had a smell to it. Everything bothers me, but the one thing that didn't, he said had a smell to it.

We went to the store and smelled every men's shower soap there was, and they all were nasty. All the Axe ones make me physically ill. All the Dial ones would be ok except for one, if they were just about 1/4 as much scent.

I don't know why manufacturers think you need to be able to smell their stuff across the room. :
