I purchased a 32 oz. bottle of unscented baby-mild pure-castile soap. I was hoping for it to be truely unscented but it smells like peppermint. ??

If you ordered unscented then it should be unscented. I would return the bottle and let them know of your complaint.

Go to Target and sniff a bottle of the peppermint and you will see it's not the same - the peppermint Dr. Bronner's is very strong. The unscented has a very, very slight "smell" (to me), but I think it's just the oils, etc they use in the making of it. Once I actually use it on me and my family there is no residual smell. I guess it's possible you might have received peppermint in an unscented bottle (if you still think so then return it) but highly unlikely - I have been ordering them for years and never had a problem. Hope this helps you.

My husband finished his bars a while ago and it did seem like the scent was rather weak in comparison to others (like Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap) I also found these same bars for less money at lots of local health/natural food stores.

No, it can be used straight out of the bottle. You can also buy or make unscented castile liquid soap and add clove, orange, cinamon bark, eucalyptus, and rosemary essential oils and save some money!

I would say it has a light, pleasant fragrance. Smells like baby powder. Not overpowering in my opinion.

Mine too. It is because it is a fake product. Diluted or even totally replaced by cheap carrier oil and mostly peppermint. I had a DoTerra rep look at mine, and it is definitely NOT their true product. the protective seal was broken on mine when it arrived as well. I will only purchase from a direct rep next time.

No it does not smell like pine Sol...I hate that smell! It is a soft smell sort of like a mild eucalyptus scent . I really like this as it is the only soap I buy now for my dishes (not dishwasher) and any other cleaning things. Did a great job on my shower too! It got rid of the mildew as my shower is large and enclosed fully. It also goes a really long way!

Initially, mine seemed to smell like it was alcohol at first. But after sometime when the smell settlesdin, you would get the real sweet scent of the perfume. Except perhaps you didn't perceive the great scent few seconds after sprayIng . Only then would u be concerned that perhaps it's a fake. In all mine was fine.

Scented? Unscented? The best way to determine that answer is to look at the ingredients list to determine if "FRAGRANCE" has been added. If you don't know what some of the ingredients are, look them up in a dictionary or on line. All substances have an odor or scent that I can detect, so I would find some "scents" strong that other could barely detect. Even the white packaged wipes have a distinct odor to me, so I have started making my own. Good luck!

It has a very, very gentle, mild fragrance. You can hardly notice it. I find it quite pleasant, and I am very particular about scents. I do not like scented soaps, shampoos or lotions and I love this product. Try it. If you are unsure, try a smaller size first. I think you will be pleased.

Sarah, I was looking for a product comparable to Good Mews when I came across what Amazon had to offer. I have never used it and still continuing to use Good Mews and yes it is unscented.

I notice a light scent. Almost a nutty scent. However, it's not near enough for me to notice once I've used it to moisturize my face (just a drop is plenty) and scrunch in the ends of my hair to control frizzies. The last bottle I ordered had a strong scent, though. Reminded me of toasted sesame oil. I'm getting ready to order again, hoping that the next bottle will be back to normal. I have an extremely strong sense of smell, though. I notice scents and smells that other people don't.

not that I have noticed and I am fairly sensitive to 'smell' that is out of place.I used to wash hands and face this morning, it's light and refreshing. If you give it a try, will you please let me know what YOU think of this soap? :)

I just checked my bottle of 800 which I opened two moths ago. There is a smell, but it's not that strong. Are you sensitive to some odours? Maybe you should contact the provider.

There are several different types of Dr. Bronner Castile Soap, one of which I believe is unscented, others contain natural scents and not chemical replications.

There is a light soapy smell that doesn't interfere with added scents. Peppermint essential oil would be a wonderful scent!

Mine doesn't really have much of a scent, or taste either. It better be Almond Oil... because that's what I paid for. I'd send an inquiry to Essential Depot if you are still unconvinced.

I did not find it to smell like baby powder. It is a very soft, subtle rose scent. Not offensive at all.
