The smell alone I can't stand to finish this product. There is nothing rose-like in the scent. I can't even figure out what it smells like. It reminds me of something Chises food related. Just horrible. The colour is a very very yellowish oil. Almost pee-like. Also disgusting. Once I get past the smell and appearance. I'm not that impressed the effects. Teh sales girl swore this was the holy grail product she used. I used it twice a week instead of moisturizer at night. It didn't absorb into my skin quick, like other facial oils. So I couldn't apply it before bed....had to remember about 1.5 hours before. Didn't see any help with the redness in my skin either.
