It had a beautifully sweet scent that lasted for days even after numerous hand washes and showers! Please note that this top coat is scented with fragrance oils which can cause smearing of the nail art and stamping. In order to avoid smearing, always float your top coat when applying this product. This means to never let the actual brush touch your nails. (you can see me achieve this in the video below)
