Do you get bubble bath gift sets for men?

Comments

  • Have you tried department stores? I'm wondering if some of the big name brands might do them, although I've only ever noticed shower gels.

    It's interesting that there are none/so few available, although it's not something my husband has ever used. And to answer an earlier question, he does take baths, but only when ill or very tired, so 1-2/year. He's also not a 'toiletries' kind of man. The girls in our house use the 'male' Radox items as we prefer those scents, although again baths are rare due to time pressures. Showers prevail here.

    I'm not saying no guys like them, but they're definitely the minority. If these started creeping into most guys Christmas stockings I think there would be a good few !!!!!! thoughts.

    Or lots and lots of happier men and more fulfilled relationships.

    When we both worked and lived together dh and i used to end most working days with a bath and a glass of wine, while supper cooked often. It was a great place to unwind, Catch up withee arch other's day at work, and discuss any 'joint business' often lead to the oven being turned off for a couple of hours.

    While I don't think it cures all ills there is no doubt an appropriate scented bath product or shower gel can help wake one up or relax one, or just be pleasurable and give a bit of pleasure to the user, and anyone who sniffs him.

    DH was a "bath" man who really enjoyed letting out his inner kid with a long, hot soak while delicious Lush Bath Bomb fumes floated round the house.. (Nice for me at bedtime too :D ).

    Though he didn't like the ones with very girly names. :o

    My husband loves the stuff from Molton Brown.

    They smell gorgeous, look very classy and also quite masculine.

    I was looking at sets today for my OH and my two boys and I think if I do get them smelly stuff, I will buy it individually - I think they over price these sets just because they're held together by cardboard!

    Molton Brown Black Pepper Recharge is lovely. Sold as a male fragrance, but I always ask for a bottle at Christmas/birthday.

    Love it!
