This chamois cream is pretty runny compared to other brands I use (Docs, Muc Off, Morgan Blue solid, DZ Nutz), which can make application difficult. Otherwise, it holds up ok on medium distance rides, anything longer than 3 hours I prefer a thicker cream. The scent-slightly herbal and citrusy-is pleasant if you're down with embro aroma. Overall, this is decent chamois cream and a decent value if you can get it on sale.
