Yes!!! Thank God I'm not the only one. I thought the one I bought first had gone 'off' so got another and it just smelt WRONG. To me it was like very stale make it yourself play dough.

I know exactly what you mean, with a sort of chemically undertone.

It's also horrifically expensive, so I've been sticking to drops.

Yes I've got some drops now and yes the sprays are a horrendous price!

I know what you mean. I really dislike the sprays. I started using wipes and drops instead. The ones from this company
Eyekonic
are my favourite. I ended up buying the baby ones once by mistake Blush They are so gentle, smell nice, and my eyes feel much less gritty and itchy afterwards.
Has anyone ever had their itchy eyes stop being itchy permanently? I'm trying to work out if I'm going to be using wipes and drops for the rest of my life Grin
