Anyone else love the smell of baby powder? And have a similar experience that brings back memories?

For me when I use baby powder I absolutely love the smell of it just brings back times when everything was much simpler and I was being cared for everything done when I was baby/toddler. Just being look after and everything when I needed a diaper change or if I was sick always had my rectal temperature taken in the diaper changing position. After that always had a fresh clean Huggies or Pampers baby diaper put on with baby powder put on afterwards. Anyone else have a similar experience when they were young and always getting a diaper change? Nowadays when I where diapers I put on a nice amount of baby powder so that’s at the aroma fills the air every time I walk and poof baby powder seeps out.

Not really with the powder for me butt , the smell of Baby Oil turns me on

Yes, I like the smell of baby powder. Just smelling it reminds me of being in a fresh diaper. However I have no memories as being a toddler wearing diapers.

We've used it - nice smell but doesn't bring back memories for me or when we used it on our kids.

Yup

Reminds me of when my kids were little

Always smell clean and fresh

In college, I had two roomies and both were dancers. So the house we lived in always smelled like baby powder. I still like the smell.

Agree. Baby powder has a unique and captivating fragrance. Though I hears it clogs up the ability of disposables to wick away wetness. Anyone know anything else about that?

Love the smell of baby powder! I use occasionally on the pads I use for urge incontinence. It does make a difference. Although I am a male I currently use the Tena brand Intimates 6 drop pads that give me the coverage I need. They are much better than the Depend Gaurds I used to use. As I told my wife when trying the Tena pads - she said those are for women. I responded - pads are pads!

Absolutely! I use it when in cloth diapers. I'm honestly not sure how much it helps but I haven't ever gotten a rash.

The smell has always thrown me right back into my diaper days as a kid. Lying on the changing pad with my butt up getting cleaned, powdered and diapered. It goes along with a good feeling of getting ready for bed as a kid...and some embarrassing feelings of wearing diapers in the day and getting changed like a baby.

I've been using baby powder for as long as I've worn diapers. Love the odor, as well as the mist that forms when I shake the baby powder out. All of my plastic pants smell of baby powder too. Some things never change because it can't be improved, and baby power under my cloth diapers and plastic panties is one,

I use baby powder and a moisture barrier for every diaper change. Wearing diapers 24/7 comes with risk of chaffing and diaper rash.

I only use premium plastic backing disposable diapers which can and do get hot in the summer especially. Normally I can get around 10 hours before a need change.

For the hot summer season I use a heavy dusting of baby powder otherwise a lite dusting. It definitely helps with absorbing diaper sweat which makes it far more comfortable wearing diapers.

I don't agree with baby powder affects the ability of the diaper absorbing wetness. There's been times I used to much which resulted in the powder clumping.

I don't believe it affected the diapers ability to absorbing wetness. I guess using a large abundance amount could cause a barrier preventing absorbing capability.

Over using baby powder is just a waste of money and makes harder to clean up is my opinion. It also makes it more noticeable with the stronger powder odor if your trying to be discreet.

I love the smell of baby powder it is a big part of the baby experience for me. I use bay lotion on my nappy area as it helps prevent nappy rash. I then use baby powder on my body for that true baby smell

I like the smell of baby powder. I grew up in the era of Love's Baby Soft perfume. But it doesn't really bring up any thoughts or memories. It just smells good.

Now Downy fabric softener does bring up fond memories from the past. Times of playing in the blue plastic wader pool with my sister. We poured water on ourselves with an empty Downy bottle.

The smell of Ponds Cold Cream brings back high school plays. One has to get that makeup off after the show.

I like the smell of baby powder and baby oil, but this is just from my love of diapers as a teen / adult. I don't remember those smells from when I was in diapers as a baby. I do remember that my mother used a product called "Zincofax" which is still available (I just did a web search and, voila!). I don't remember what it smelled like--probably like Desitin or one of the other diaper rash creams--I just remember her mentioning a long time ago that this is what she used. Actually I think the story she was telling was of one time when, as a baby, I tried to eat some of it. LOL.

These days I love Baby Magic lotion, the original scent, in the pink bottles. The lotion also originally was pink but lately it's white, I think they must have decided to no longer dye it as that maybe was a skin irritant.

As for bringing back memories, the thing that does that for me is the smell of wet cloth diapers--on me or in the diaper pail!

I've grown fond of the scent of baby powder and a wet diaper. My plastic pants sometimes puff out when you move. When that happens, I'll catch a brief moment of baby powder and peed diaper. It reminds me of years ago when I was young with many years of brothers and sisters in diapers.

The odor from the mix of my pee and baby powder is permanently etched in my plastic panties. It seems I can never have enough of that smell, I even dream of it at times. Just opening my dresser drawers where my panties are stored gets me off.

Like the smell but nothing special for me, use it on hot days to help with diaper sweat.

I’ve always enjoyed the smell of baby powder. I usually have three or four unopened ones for backup.

I recently picked up some Baby Magic lotion to use before powdering. I gotta say whatever that scent is, it’s intoxicating. I think I’ve found a new addition to my diaper experiences!

I use a lot of it! We use it to quiet serpentine belts and supercharger belts they go quiet and last much longer. It seems to allow the blower belt teeth to slip into the pulley grooves better and in the boating world that's a good thing!

Or tummypro, maybe those belts just live that powder as much as we do and quit complaining …

Just rediscovered baby powder for summer perspiration issues around boy bits! Do love the fragrance too!

During the diaper change routine by my wife she uses baby powder. I mostly enjoy this part with the smell . It provides a level of comfort

I loove the smell, i even use it for my deodorant scent!

We use a lot of it on boats it stops serpentine belts from squeaking

Love me some baby powder! I've noticed that different brands have quite different scents. I like the lavender ones. Some just smell like soap to me. But I prefer the traditional "baby powder" scent. I've also occasionally gotten oil blends off eBay with that fragrance. Nice to put a drop or two in the diapers in the stack and let it sit for a few days. Now the whole diaper is powder fresh!

Anyone have an opinion about talc vs. corn starch? I prefer the talc-based, but it doesn't seem like anyone makes it anymore after the cervical cancer lawsuits were decided.

Talc is also a naturally occurring silicate mineral. Talc and asbestos are minerals that naturally form close to one another. As a result Talc is often contaminated with asbestos. Unlike talc, however, asbestos is a known carcinogen.

So if you are a company that makes Talc for personal use.

Where do you find pure uncontaminated Talc formations.

What is the value of that formation

How do you convince everyone that your talc is safe when someone else used that same line in a lie.

Who is going to defend them is a "Unfounded" Lawsuit.

Why would they even try to sell Talc.

When they could make more money doing something else.

So yes Talc is going to be hard to find.

and

Hell no would I be using that stuff because any company that sells they stuff don't care about the risks involved in sell the stuff.

If they don't care about the risk to them they sure as hell don't care about the risks to you.

I don't really have any memories that are brought to mind by the smell of baby powder, but I do admit that I love its scent! I guess it just goes along with wearing a diaper, in my case cloth and plastic pants. It enhances the experience, and the fun part is that if you put enough on, the scent will follow you, and make those around you wonder " his pants are bulgy, there's a noise when he walks, and it smells like baby powder around him. Could he be wearing...?" Thrilling stuff!

While I have no interest at all in diaper fetishism or AB play (no offense intended at all, it's just not my thing), I do love to smell of baby talc or talcum powder in general and have at times used it for dry masturbation.

I have always loved the smell of J&J Baby Powder and I’m deeply upset that the original smell has gone. The smell always makes me feel like little boy and transports me back to my nappy changes as a young boy.

I LOVE the smell of baby powder. In truth I don't remember it from my early years so much, I have more powerful memories of the smell of Pears and Lifebuoy soap from those times but it was used on and indeed still is used by my son. He's 10 now but still likes to liberally douse himself in it after a bath. I doubt he will want to do that much longer and then there will be no further need to have it in the house. Our bathroom always smells a little of it. Hmmm nice!
