I think that's just the smell of that Johnson's baby soap that everyone uses :P


That soap is the worst! It gets rid of the 'new baby' smell. Who would want that?!?


I like brand new baby smell. But as soon as it stops smelling like it was assembled in China the novelty wears off.


Literally never used any of that stuff on our baby, any baby wash we use for the bath is very specifically fragrance free, and yes, there is a very distinctive "baby smell" anyway.


Don't spoil the trade secret!
