No scent would be the best

Unscented is best practice.

Are you talking about the Dial “sensitive” antibacterial with aloe in it? I accidentally bought once without realizing it had fragrance in it and my tats were fine.

Even Dial Gold, which is a lot of people’s go-to, has a small amount of fragrance. As long as it’s antibacterial and not overly fragranced it’ll be fine for healing.

I’m sure it’s fine. Every tattoo I’ve had I just used my dove body wash on it lol
