Does the scent of the oils you buy smell weird?

Hi guys

For those of you who buy pure oils, for example almond oil, jojoba oil, etc etc.

Do you guys always go for cold-pressed, organic ones, or do you just grab any bottle off the shelf??

Why I am asking is because, I have noticed that after I apply the oil mixture I use (wheatgerm, jojoba, EPO), the next day my clothes have this very funny smell to them.

I thought it may just be the lingering scent of wheatgerm (which can be quite 'offensive' to some). But then I grew more and more suspicious as to if the company I bought them from, was supplying me with cold-pressed oils... I feared it may be some sort of lingering scent of hexane (is that even possible if it's solvent extraction?)

So the big question is, if you guys do use just a normal oil for moisturising, do you guys also get this smell afterwards?
