I was worried the smell would be too strong, but it leaves my skin feeling soft and leaves a delicate scent of rose, which is perfect. I didn't want it to be overpowering. I have already ordered and received my second bottle. I go through it quickly since I normally go through bottles of baby oil for post shower hydration. I prefer this as it rinses off easily and doesn't leave a slippery residue on the bathroom tub floor.
