Almond oil...what does it smell like?

Just wondering if almond oil has a scent? I currently use jojoba oil for various things and that has no scent. Wanting to try almond oil.

Thanks!

Yes it does have a scent. Sort of like you would expect from almonds, but maybe sweeter in some way. I use the oil mainly on my fingers and it is really good for overnight. The scent does go away pretty fast.

It's a very subtle scent. It's barely noticeable and it dissipates quickly.

Very light cherry fragrance. Jafra used to make the best almond oil, IMO.

I use the L'Occitane almond shower oil & supple oil after showering sometimes. It smells really good. Has a light scent. Only thing I don't like about almond oil now is that I just read the other day they say almond oil just sits on the skin & does not absorb.
