<![CDATA[My jeans have a certain scent to them]]>This is after washing. I've done about 4 washes in a washing machine as per this post. There seems to be a scent to them still ( I wasn't sure if I noticed it at the start ) sort of an earthy scent? Post wash. Not sure what it is, can anyone help?

This is the IH-888s-18

I’ve had some heavily dyed indigo shirts have a similar scent first few washes

I've found these thicker/ heavier fabrics need a bit more water and time compared to more regular stuff.
