Stinks out of the box but well worth the time it took to scrub the bristles clean!
Great little brush to keep in the shower for the daily trimming routine. One thing though is it came with a musty smell that took about a week worth of washing and rinsing and drying to get rid of. Unusual in my experience because I have boar bristle hair brushes, shaving brushes and body brushes and never notice that before. Excellent now that the odor has faded away.
