In the plastic bottle dealie: *sniffs* Smells ... sweet. Like ... something sweet?
Onto the wrist: Yup. Definitely sweet. Like, sweet stuff.
Onto the OTHER wrist: Still sweet. Uh-huh.
After it has dried on my wrists and neck and ankles and various other body parts I won't go into but I figured I'd try because what the hey: Oooo-la-la zee scent, she transports me to zee old days on La Rive Gauche, where Jean-Jacques-Michel and I would sit with zee Cafe Au Laits and Baguettes, wearing our saucy berets and stripey jumpers, summarizing Proust together, and the scent of ... I dunno ... some kind rilly French sweet stuff of some kind would come all wafting up from the Seine. Sacre bleu! Jean-Luc Picard!!
OK, I fail at life.
EDIT: Just a follow up: so, we went running, and I came back and showered and washed my hair.
And, I can still smell the sweet gunk on my wrists! In fact, it's stronger now!!!!
