I recently contacted the company after tossing in the towel on rogaine foam....cannot stand the smell . . . .

and did not bother to ring them up ...

My guess is unscented foam smells really bad and tested poorly in the trials for its scent alone. There is a reason we don't have it.

makes sense ...
hopefully the company revisits things if warranted.
surely $$$$$ are rolling in from foam sales though.

They could reduce the strength of the scent a bit though.

No doubt!

I don't even use the stuff anymore, but I sent an email anyway.

I love the smell of the stuff, but I don't like how it becomes the only smell I can have, and everyone around me can smell it and know from the smell that I use rogaine. What if your girlfriend wants you to try a new cologne? Just tell her it is minoxidil for hair loss and just another one of the things you can't do anything about?
