From the scent point of view, I can say that it is one of the best I have smelled in a shower gel! As for the duration of the scent after the shower, I cannot be precise because it is a subjective matter that is different for everyone! Personally, as soon as I get out of the shower and for 1-2 hours after, I can still smell it on my skin, but later it fades away. A small amount is enough on the sponge to have enough lather so that you can enjoy your bath and also enjoy its wonderful scent! As for the price I bought it for, I believe it is worth every penny!
