This lip butter has the most amazing smell of sweet lemon, toasted vanilla, sugar, caramel and fresh cream but not a sweet taste that makes you want to lick it all off. It moisturizes really well and stays on quite well too. It gives a slight shine but nothing like that of a lip gloss. Great to use before bed or for in the winter. In a pinch I even used a bit on dry elbows and it worked perfectly.
