When the weather gets cold and dry I get chapped hands, sometimes to the point of painful, so with winter on the way I decide it's time to lay in a little bit of hand lotion. Usually I use Cornhusker's lotion. It's cheap, it's very, very good, you can find it in most drug stores if you look in the darkest corner of the lowest shelf, and it smells like rose water. Or at least I've been told it smells like rose water. All I know for sure is rose water apparently smells like Cornhusker's lotion. And smelling like rose water, it seems, is old-fashioned to the max.
Whatever. This year, I decide, I don't want to smell like rose water or, for that matter, anything at all. So I buy some stuff labeled "fragrance-free."
Now I smell like some kind of flower.
What, maybe they meant to say "free fragrance"?
Also, just for the record, PS, "non-greasy" doesn't seem to mean much either. Fortunately I only bought a little bit of the stuff. Maybe next year I can go back to Cornhusker's. It's cheap, it's very, very good, and it really is non-greasy. Also - did I mention this? - it smells like rose water.
