I chose this conditioning bar because I am looking for healthy products with little or no smell. I ordered the coconut scent. It did smell like coconut, but mostly I smelled what I believe is the shea butter. It isn't a bad smell, but I am super sensitive to many things. I started sneezing immediately after opening the box. I took it out to wash my hair but the scent was so strong I could not. It was all over my hands and I couldn't get the smell off, so I was afraid to put it in my hair. It is probably perfectly nice on your hair, but I am still sneezing and it is not for me. Was super nicely packaged and it IS expensive, but healthy bars usually are, especially hair bars.
