Matthew said in an interview, the actress begged him to wear the product, and even bought him some.

He said: “She always brings a salt rock, which is some natural deodorant, and says, ‘Would you please put this on?’ I just never wore it. No cologne, no deodorant.”

He went on: “The women in my life, including my mother, have all said, ‘Hey, your natural smell smells, one, like a man, and, two, smells like you.”

Matthew has said he doesn’t “like to smell like someone or something else”.

Although the actor has impressed upon the public that he still takes hygiene seriously.

Matthew has claimed to have multiple showers a day.
