Is it scented?
This smells like lilacs to me.

My overall experience/comments on the product:
I appreciate that this, while it is oily, it rinses off cleanly without leaving too much of a residue behind; it feels oily but it rinses right off with water. It does a fantastic job of removing makeup - it took everything right off. That said I'm just all about a creamy cleanser and my makeup remover microfiber cloths and will most likely be sticking to those two for my makeup removal needs.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
