This is a nice body mist that feels light-weight and acts as a dry oil so it doesn't leave an oily feeling or leave a sheen on my skin. The product does have an added parfum, and it has a surprisingly strong, long-lasting fragrance that might some might find objectionable. I like it, at least at first but I have to admit it does seem to change on my skin and it becomes rather cloying after a while. Although it is labeled as a body oil, the product description as well as the packaging suggest that it is also suitable for the face and touts the purported anti-aging effects of bakuchiol. However, I prefer to use it only as a body oil.I have very dry skin and I like using this on my arms and legs, which are the most problematic for me. Despite the claims that this mist is intensely moisturizing, I find it only moderately hydrating. This was surprising to me considering the blend of oils in the formulation, several of which I already use on my skin. The mist does help my hands feels smoother and softer, but is less effective on my forearms, elbows and lower legs. Using more than 1 or 2 sprays, or reapplying after a short time doesn't seem to make much of a difference. This might just be me, though. It would likely work better for those with normal skin or only slight dryness.The mist is not as fine as I expected either, and if I followed the directions to hold the bottle 8-12" away, not very much of it would land on my skin. I hold the bottle closer to 4-5" away and that works well for me.I like that this is made in the USA. As someone with sensitive skin, I also appreciate that the full list of ingredients is shown in the product description. While not much of the product is needed per application, the bottle only contains four ounces. I can't really justify the high price as I have tried several similar dry oils that work just as well and cost far less. The presentation is nice, but not as luxe as one might expect at this price point. The mist is housed in a rigid black plastic bottle with a twist-off cap. The sprayer is just so-so. The mist is nicely boxed, but I was disappointed to find that it was not sealed when it arrived.
