My grandma in Tulsa said Palmolive's green apple scent is just dish soap perfume, and now I'm rethinking my whole counter
Last month my grandma in Tulsa was visiting and she picked up my bottle of green apple Palmolive and said, "Honey, that's just perfume for your plates." She uses plain unscented soap because she says strong smells give her a headache. I laughed it off at first, but then I noticed how the apple smell lingered on my coffee mug after rinsing. It made me wonder if I'm masking old food smells instead of actually cleaning. She also said her hands don't crack anymore since she switched to unscented. I tried a bottle of plain blue Dawn for a few days and my hands felt less dry, but honestly I miss the apple smell. So now I'm torn between wanting a nice scent and worrying it's just covering up something. Has anyone else had a relative call out their soap choice like that?
Grandmas really do have zero filter when it comes to our life choices, mine once told me my laundry detergent smelled like a candle store. Guess we're both out here catching soap reviews from the older generation.
