This essence smells really good. I don't know how to describe it but it has a very pleasant scent that I love.

I do think that my skin looks a lot brighter after I use it in the morning. I use this in my morning routine and a different essence at night. This comes with the 60 cotton pads but I don't use the pads. I apply the essence directly to the skin, so that I'm not wasting any drops. The cotton pads are good quality ones and I will be using them for something else instead. Perhaps soak up any leftover essence from a sheet mask pack and apply like a mask the next day =)

It's expensive but I think it's worth the investment for my skin.
