It doesn't seem to fade as the day goes on, and if my hair gets wet at all the "fragrance" becomes extremely evident. I can't stand it, My girlfriend hates it, but the foam work so well that i just grit my teeth and put up with it. I just wish they would make an unscented version of the stuff. Anyone else feel this way?
Who else hates the way Rogaine Foam smells?

the smell doesnt effect me at all really. In fact, compared to using liquid, it could smell like a porta-potty at the state fair and I would still use it.

i actually like the smell and wish I could still smell it. I have been using it for months now so my senses have completely adapted to the smell whereas I don't notice it at all. So stick it out and your senses will adapt.

Did you guys know that they actually claim that the foam is unscented? There was a post on one of these forums where the guy emailed them about the smell and that's their story. (and they're stickin' to it) With that said, I don't mind the smell all that much. I have horrible sinus problems anyway so maybe it doesn't come across as strong to me as it does to someone with "normal" sinuses. To me it's kind of like their "Ocean Breeze" scented liquid stuff, only a bit stronger.

On rogainedirect.com there was a unscented version. I have no idea what happened to it nor have I ever seen it since that one time.
But ocean breeze is a good description. I would rather have a strong alcohol smell for a few moments than that crap.

uke:. Add the fact that my girlfriend cant stand the smell of it and you have a problem. Its so bad that i have to keep both forms of rogaine around. I use the foam normally but when i go out with her i have to switch to the liquid the night before so the scent is out of my hair.
