This has a clean scent.

My overall experience/comments on the product:
Friends I have read about cordyceps before and I am so disturbed that they are in these products. Yes, says the hypocrite girl who uses snail products and reluctantly sucks it up with carmine in her lipsticks and tries not to think about the details of either. But just so you're informed, there is a type of cordyceps that doesn't need a host to grow... the type used here isn't the non-host type. Cordyceps are spore fungi that typically use caterpillars, worms, or ants as hosts, as the cordyceps grows into a physical mushroom it tears through the host body, effectively killing it. So... well... now you're informed. Overall this product isn't heavy and feels nice but given these weird mushrooms in it... I'm kind of disturbed to put it on my face... although I'll use it up because, again, it can't be any worse than snail filtrate or crushed carmine beetles.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
