If any of you use this product, can you tell me if there is an odor to your lotion? Maybe mine is just old and I need to pitch it, but I don't remember it smelling like roses when I first opened it. It really just does not smell good! Anyone experience the same?

I don't use the product, but I have learned from experience that the best thing to do is to call the manufacturer. Sometimes there are production problems, etc. They can also tell you if it is too old as well.

I use this and it does have have a faintly unpleasant smell which I think comes from the acids or whatever the active ingredient is.

Is that the one with the SPF 15? If so, I think I tried it and didn't like the smell either. I've tried just about all of those "daily moisterizers" with SPF 15 and most of them seem to smell awful (even the "unscented" varities) - it must be the SPF. The only one I can manage is the Lubriderm one, it seems to smell the least of them.

I think that's what I use. It has a citrus-y smell to me - like the acid from oranges. It's not a strong smell, though.

I think the one I use is Healthy Skin Face Lotion. It does not smell very good.

I also use Nuetragena lotion for sensitive skin and it really does have an odd, unpleasant oder. But, every other lotion I've tried makes me either break out or gives me red, blotchy skin (how is that for attractive!!).

i use one called Neutrogena Moisture with SPF 15. i think it smells just fine, sort of like sunscreen. i tried using one of healthy skin ones once & thought it smelled weird too.

I use the Healthy Skin moisturizer, and it does have a light fragrance. It doesn't bother me, but some people are more sensitive to certain odors. Or maybe it's because I usually put it on BC or TTTC (before coffee or too tired to care).

I use Healthy Skin but I'm in the "doesn't smell very strong" club. It just smells sort of acidic to me, but not bad. Certainly does not smell like roses. I second the suggestion of calling the manufacturer.

Thanks for all of your replies. Mine is beyond smelly, it is just foul. I should call them to see if this is normal and is maybe just the suncreen and the aha's. Thanks!

I don't use the neutrogena product but I use the Oil of Olay with SPF15. No odor here or my sense of smell is gone!
