While I had high hopes for handling the scent, I could not use this product more than once due to overwhelming sweet smell. The time I did use it, I laid out for about 30 minutes and did not achieve any significant improvement compared to other products and got a sun rash which is abnormal for me. For some back ground info, I have eczema, I tend to tan easily, don't burn often, and have experienced sun rashes in the past but not in recent years.
