I bought it because I saw the reviews and decided to try it. Initially, the scent is quite strong but not overly so, I would say. Something that is okay for me. Now, the scent is somewhat strange and I wouldn't say it is pleasant to smell. However, from what I saw in the other reviews, it takes a little time to get used to it, so we'll see. Additionally, its texture is very fluid and it doesn't remind me of a scrub but something like a cream with small pieces. However, it is very easy to use and it doesn't fill the whole bathroom with sugar like other scrubs I have tried. It leaves the skin very soft and smooth. My only issue is the scent, but since it does a good job, I don't mind so much because I can cover it up with the cocoa butter cream from the same line.
