The smell!!
I just tried it once and believe me, if you are sensitive to smells don't get near to this product. I don't care how good it might be but I will never use it again the smell is awful!

Works but STINKS
It's a lovely product and it worked on my dryness, spots, etc but honestly, it absolutely STINKS. It smells like gone off cooking sausages. I'm going to see if I can add some essential oil to it to mask the smell.

A great oil
The smell didn't bother me at all. I mean, it's a seed oil so I don't mind it actually smells like it. It doesn't congest my pores and a little goes a long way!

Amazing
This product is amazing for my cystic acne and calms any redness down. The smell isn’t awful, it just takes some time to get used to.

Stinky
I'm sure this product works wonders if you can get over the scent, but holy moly this stuff smells BAD. I am very sensitive to smells, particularly fishy smells and I just hate this stuff. After applying, I could smell it on myself for the rest of the day. I could smell it on everything I touched, even after washing my hands, and everything my face touched. So gross. If you have a bad sense of smell, go for it, but I would even be able to smell this on someone else and it would make me wretch. Fishy. Nasty.

Instantly moisturising
Upon application, this is the densest, most fatty-acid-packed oil I’ve ever used. My skin instantly looked moisturised - but not greasy - very dewy and glowy. The smell is a bit odd, but passes after about 5 minutes and is certainly a more than favourable trade-off for the oil’s moisturising properties. I have acne prone and extremely dry skin, especially around my nostrils, and this oil improved my skin’s texture and bounce from first application. Extremely underrated and for such a good price!

Great but stinks!
Thought I’d try this oil as the rosehip is so good and it’s supposed to be good at getting rid of redness from rosacea! Brilliant, had calmed my skin down and is full of moisture but the reason I’ve knocked a star off is because it smells like chicken stew or wet dog! The ordinary have stated this is how the seed smells and they don’t believe in adding perfume but just hold your nose when using! I will carry on as kind of used to it now!

Amazing
Love this product, the smell isn't even bad at all it smells like any other face product made from natural ingredients, using this for only a week twice a day has made a huge improvement to my skin it feels so nourished and glowy!! And an absolute bargain for less than £5, would recommend this entirely if you have dry dull looking skin you will notice a difference!

Love the product but not the scent
I love it, and use it for everything -- I even mix it with foundation but the scent is really a put off. :(
