Aubrey Organics White Camelia smell

[Grand Prix]

When I first bought this product I hated the smell, I didn't even want to use it.

But later I discovered WC was the best conditioner in the world. I'm so in love with it that I even like the smell.

For those that can't stand it, I usually dilute AO conditioners because they're so expensive with coconut cream/milk or another conditioner, and find that the smell isn't that strong but gives (nearly) the same results.

I think AOWC has a minty smell. I could see where some people might think it smells like Bengay, but it doesn't bother me. I'm DCing with it right now for the first time - overnight/baggy. Now AOHSR took some getting used to with its incense smell but I've grown to like it.

I've always thought it smelled like pine needles and mint. I like it.

It smells good to me...its just TOO STRONG! I wish they'd tone it down a bit, cause I love the conditioner.

It smells like sage and earthy something or other. I hate the smell and I'm still on the fence about the performance. The smell lingers around too. After this one is done I'm going back to AOHSR.

It does smell like an old lady or something...In my last bottle, I've added peppermint EO tone down the smell.

I don't like the WC smell either. I forced myself to use that bottle up with the quickness. GPB doesn't smell all that great either, but I can deal with that one better than the WC.

The smell doesn't bother me! I use hsr and wc and gob. They are good alone but when I mix the hsr and wc and add 2 tablespoons each of avj and hemp seed oil. My hair is soo soft! I love the combo more than anything.

UGH!!! Yes, I hate the smell. I bought it because they were out of Honey Suckle Rose, but the smell was making me nauseous so I had to return it. I couldn't take it. I love me some Honey Suckle Rose though, the smell is wonderful.

I don't particularly care for the smell, but it's not nauseating or anything, and it fades away when my hair dries. I use it because it works very well as a DC that I leave in.

aohsr smells good to me but its really strong and lingers...aogpb smells like mens cologne or aftershave...but its better than the strong scent of oranges i get from ors replenishing, and those are the only 2 protein condishes my hair will accept...i havent tried aowc...but im pretty sure it has a strong smell too...i kinda wish they didnt have those protective seals so i could smell before i buy lol

I want to try this. Is it really that good? I don't mind earthy smells but very loud florals/musky scents bother me.

I liked it better than the Honeysuckle Rose, but I would describe it as a loud floral/musky scent. I liked it enough it made me want to write to Aubrey Organics asking that they cut down on the scent.

I'm not a fan of any of their scents, but the conditioners work well

AO products in general tend to smell like a grandma .. not bad at all just very floral and "perfumy". OP maybe you could try adding some essential oil to mask the smell?
