Review (3/5): Is processing creating the sour odor?
According to many sources, the scent of Argan oil should be nutty, almost like popcorn. The product I received smells sour. Available information trends toward inferior results if not processed correctly. It does absorb quickly and seems to be hydrating well, but the smell is off-putting. I have used it on my hair but the enthusiastically stated "high shine" that was expected wasn't there. If I use too much (I used 10 drops the first time), my hair felt slightly gummy or powdered. I have used it on my cuticles and it is hydrating and absorbing well. I've used the product for 2 days and am still deliberating on whether to return it, if that's even possible. The odor does dissipate after about an hour, but working through that time, well....getting close to my significant other while the odor dissipates, causes me some anxiety.
