Yvette Nicole Brown says Matthew McConaughey, who doesn't wear deodorant, 'smells like granola and good living'

• Yvette Nicole Brown said Matthew McConaughey smells "delicious" despite not wearing deodorant.
• Brown got "as close" as possible to him while shooting "Tropic Thunder" to investigate his scent.
• "He smells like granola and good living," she shared on SiriusXM's "The Jess Cagle Show."

After Matthew McConaughey shared that he's odorless and, ergo, doesn't use deodorant, Yvette Nicole Brown decided to covertly look into the matter herself.

More than a decade later, she still remembers his "delicious" smell.

On Friday's episode of SiriusXM's "The Jess Cagle Show," Brown reflected on her experience working with McConaughey on the 2008 comedy "Tropic Thunder." Ahead of production, she recalled being curious about McConaughey's personal hygiene, as he publicly said during a 2005 interview with People that he hadn't worn deodorant for 20 years at that point.

"I remember that Matthew McConaughey said that he did not use deodorant and that he did not have an odor. My first thought was: 'I'm going to get as close as I can to him to see if he's right,'" she said.

Brown went on to confirm that McConaughey is odor-free.

"He smells like granola and good living, that's all I can say," she added. "He has a sweet, sweet scent that is just him and it's not musty or crazy."

Brown also took an opportunity to praise McConaughey's character, saying he was always "very kind" to her even though she had a much more minor role in "Tropic Thunder."

"I'd been a fan since 'A Time To Kill,' so the idea that I got to be in scenes with him and be directed by Ben Stiller and be in a film that was that funny - it was a great experience," Brown said.

Brown's comments about McConaughey arrive as an increasing number of celebrities have spoken about their own bathing habits and personal hygiene.

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis said they refrain from using soap on their bodies every day and don't wash their kids until they spot dirt on them. Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell backed up the celebrity couple, saying they too wait to bathe their kids until they get "the stink." And Jake Gyllenhaal shared that he, personally, finds it "less necessary" to bathe at times, citing benefits for "skin maintenance."

Despite McConaughey's aversion to deodorant, Brown said she doesn't put him in the same camp as the aforementioned stars.

"He smelled delicious. He just didn't have deodorant on," she explained. "Those that don't bathe, I don't understand."

Not all of McConaughey's costars have been so fond of the actor's natural scent, however.

Kate Hudson, who appeared in "Fool's Gold" (2008) with the Texan, brought salt rock, a natural deodorant, to set and asked McConaughey to put it on to curb the smell of his body odor, according to Elite Daily. He refused.

"I just never wore it. No cologne, no deodorant," he reportedly said in 2014, continuing, "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.'"

Per the outlet, McConaughey followed up to say that his lack of deodorant isn't a sign of poor hygiene, confirming that he showers multiple times and brushes his teeth up to five times each day.
