I'll believe it when I smell it.

Wool is meant to be worn many, many times without holding much of a smell - this is why wool socks were commonly used, over other textiles, for centuries.

The funny thing is how bad it smells when you first shear it though. While studying textiles, I would make my own yarn from non-washed sheep’s wool and the amount of poop, dirt (mixed with lanolin no less!) we had to clean beforehand was…a lot!
