I have really looked forward to using this EO it's medicainal properities are only outdone by the historical values of this oil. The scent IS nice but I must say that my first impression of it while smelling it inside the bottle was that it smells like green beans! On the skin however it smells much different! A bit fruity a bit floral even citrus! A very nice scent!
