I don't know if there really is a noticeable scent, which is okay because another brand stunk.
I might have sensitive skin, I'm not sure, but sometimes oils make my scalp itch once in a while.
I gave this 5 stars because not only is it great for massages and hair, it saved my sticky sappy hands. I couldn't get tree sap off my hands and decided to see what this oil would do. Just a little bit rubbed it right off!
