Doesn't smell like for -- overpowered by sugar scent
A Christmas tree is supposed to smell like fir. This smells nothing like it. I was thinking maybe the steep price tag per volume was to compensate for the technical difficulty in extracting the pine scent. Nope. It's simply marketing ploy.<br /><br />The packaging and label were designed in such way to think that it is a real deal of homemade organic stuff. It looks so rustic. Heck, there's even traces of pine needle when I open the packaging.<br /><br />But there is little to almost no trace of fir scent, if at all. Instead it's dominated by sweet sugar scent, bringing it into the area of gourmand.<br /><br />Now I appreciate creative liberty in interpreting scents of the nature, or a particular theme. Maybe the nose of the maker was intending to evoke the Christmas as an experience instead, where there's candy cane, gingerbread, etc, but this is nothing like the smell of Christmas tree.<br /><br />Save the 25 bucks you're intending to spend on this, visit Home Depot's tree section instead.
