“When I first got the package I opened it up and it smelled medicinal, which wasn't bad just not what I expected. A few seconds later my husband was sniffing the air and asked what it was I told him it was my soap and apologized it smelled like medicine and he stopped me and said he never smelled anything like it before and he loved it. To him the smell was arousing (I hear Ylang-Ylang has that kind of effect but never thought it was true) the smell has grown on me and as I use it I do smell the rose more. This soap is wonderful when I know my husband and I will have a night alone and I want to indulge. I honestly love all Herb and Edens soaps; I haven't met one I don't like yet but this one is wonderful and romantic. If I could give it 10 stars I would.”
