worked for me
To preface, I am a walking mosquito magnet. I am literally the first and only person bitten in many situations and routinely get massacred by mosquitoes with and without repellent. When I go backpacking it's 98% deet all the way for me.<br /><br />I recently spent a nice humid evening on a friend's porch in New Orleans, and she had a bottle of this stuff around so I put some on. After several hours outside, I had a few bites but only in places that I don't think I sprayed; I could see the mosquitoes going in for the attack and bouncing off my arms a few times before hovering at a distance.<br /><br />So, it works pretty well in the swamp and smells decently pleasant. I was surprised it worked like it did, so I bought some for myself. I don't think I'd trust it like some deep woods repellents, but for an evening outside without dousing myself with chemicals, it's not a bad option.
