Proraso White is my favorite cream, but it is hardly scent free. In fact, it has a pleasant scent
Van der Hagen Unscented Luxury Shaving soap which is Hypoallergenic.

TODD, I AM INTERESTED IN THE Catie's Bubble "Le Nude" especially plus the Reef Point soap. I have sent quite a few PM'S to you last night & hope 1 made it to you! I am close to posting my cell # up for you to call me if that is allowed? In this case, it sure would be alot easier. Write me back & let me know if you received a PM from me! Thank you! Scotty.
Is any type of scent the problem or is it specific ingredients? I dated a girl who was very sensitive to fragrances and artificial ingredients, even in deodorant. She was fine with all natural options like Weleda spray deodorant or an alum rock type of deodorant.
Even unscented soaps will still have a scent like the ingredients it's made with. Soap has a scent. So if you know which ingredients she's allergic to, there are plenty of all natural options out there from the artisan vendors others have mentioned.
And is she allergic to having the soaps in the bathroom, or having it on your face? Because you could try storing your soaps in a different place. As for your face, an unscented natural soap and then a good wash and then an unscented aftershave balm or witch hazel should leave you without much scent. Pure aloe vera gel is another good after shave option that I have used for many years. The fruit of the earth brand is unscented and has no colorings either.

Yup, but the green tea and oatmeal should be all natural and not bother someone's allergies. The soap would have a milder scent than the cream, and it will weaken over time.

It is the scent of aftershave, shave soaps, Dove for men spray dry anti-perspirant is really bad for her to smell or breathe! I hope to get some Captain's Choice unscented shave balm & some unscented shave soap like Catie's Bubbles unscented. I have read alot of good things about Catie's Bubbles shave soaps. The a/s seems worse with certain brands too. She has trouble breathing due to the perfume or scents; especially after me wearing one!!! Her mom has the same problem too. It must run in the family?

Don't post it in a public forum ... send your address via PM to any generous member who has offered to send you soaps.
Scotty, I just sent you a PM. See if you got it or not please.
It's a bit expensive but find some Midnight and two.
I have yet to try another soap that makes my face feel as good as this soap does.

Stirling has some options. Pretty clean ingredient list and they sell samples too.... that way you can figure out if it works. The also have a Beewax soap in case you are reacting to Lanolin. The performance of Sterling is top shelf.
Be aware that many soapmakers label their soaps as "Unscented" or "Fragrance Free."
These are not the same thing, and there is no clear definition of either term.
Sometimes it means that no additional fragrances have been added, but you can still smell the original soap aroma.
Other times it means that there is no scent whatsoever.
A key buzzword to look for is "Hypoallergenic."
Ask your dentist or other medical professional what kind of soaps they use.
They also must refrain from any type of fragrance,
since they get up close and personal with their patients.

I just sent you a PM to let you know I would ship tomorrow. My apologies for not responding sooner but I'm on the West Coast and work crazy hours.
Well this is a good thing. Do post a review and let us all know if the soap worked or not? And by worked I mean did it help your skin and was it unscented enough? Is it something that you would want to buy long term? Give it a couple days to be sure it works for you.
I was going to recommend Mike's Natural as well, and this is a nice offer especially since they are out of stock on the site.
I see Mike's Natural Unscented is back in stock..
Unscented - I add no fragrance or essential oils to this soap. It smells simply like the ingredients of which it is composed. $12.50
