Delicious smell
Used it in a tropical country during the evening and it smells great. Especially when it reminds people of gingerbread and the train is full of hungry office workers rushing back home from work. Heads turn the moment I walked in/out of the train- with a pleasant face and not disgusted looks. Now I feel like I'm the walking gingerbread man. there can be only 1 gingerbread man walking around so I'm not going to recommand this to my friends hahaaa
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.
