Smelled terrible
I tried to use this product. It smells awful, but I really wanted to try it. The smell was so foul that about three minutes after I applied this, I went back to the bathroom to wash this off, and even THEN I couldn't get all of the scent out! I usually love Philosophy's products but this one was not a winner.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
