What a fascinating inconsistency. I am familiar with the experience of allergic reactions to purportedly scent-free or sensitive products, but I've never had it split by country. What were you reacting to?

I believe it was a derivative of urea, which gets used in a variety of surprising products. I compared the two bottles after the dermatologist correctly diagnosed the issue, and I believe that was the differing ingredient, but it was more than 10 years ago, so I could be remembering incorrectly.

I was genuinely worried the ersatz strawberry was going to set off my allergies.

I get that. I sometimes react in the shower to strongly scented products, particularly for some reason, mango, even though I don't have a problem with the actual fruit.
