My brother said this smells like a nice good fresh deodorant. That made me laugh, but he is kind of accurate. This candle has a nice fresh scent to it and is great for those who aren't fans of floral or sweet scents. It gives the room a nice fresh clean scent without being over powering, yet it also has a great staying power. The only down side to those candles are the price. I will never pay full price as they have so many great deals that it's hard not to take advantage of it.
