The scent isn't for everyone. I' do like the scent and I'm glad I do because the lather generated is fantastic!I wanted to buy this soap, but when i smelled the puck of soap in the shop i really didnt like the scent.
Does it smell different when lathered?
I haven't noticed a difference although it's worth noting that since I purchased this in January, the scent has definitely faded since then. That might be common for all hard soaps.
