Japanese solve "old man smell" problem


Troubled by kareishu? As if hard-working "salarymen" don't already have enough worries, now they have to deal with "old man smell". The phenomenon has even been given a name: kareishu.
All sorts of products are rolling out to improve the scent of Japanese seniors: gums, soaps, sprays, even (can you believe it?) deodorant suits.

  1. I'm sure those deodorant suits and whatnot smell worse. And when they mix with other smells? Yuk.

  2. I don't know and I don't intend to find out.
