Previously had the beard of oil Calanis, this smelled quite musty - just like oil. The Beard Tonic by Dr. K, however, smells deliciously of mint, in combination with my Suavecito Bay Rum aftershave, so you smell like a Mojito ;-) Unfortunately the smell dissipates after a few hours, but the oil still maintains very well and keeps the beard beautifully supple ... strong buy recommendation !!!!
