It's not bad, but it definitely does have a subtle hint of what The Cut accurately described as hotdog water, which is a common scent in many vitamin C formulas (albeit, no one knows why). Due to constant product testing, my brain is now rewired to think that this scent is actually kind of pleasant, but do what you will with that information.
