I was having some bad reaction to a new exfoliating products and my face was very very irritated (I have very sensitive skin and or can get red and raw very very easily). I am so glad that I had this toner handy. The smell was very tea, like those really dark black tea, which I don't mind since it reminds me of when I go dim sum with my parents when they ordered those really dark tea.
And when apply on face, it very hydrating while soothing. My face instantly feel the coolness from the toner and it calms right down.
Love it!
