Amazing for the hair
The unpleasant smell people are referring to is the actual smell of argan oil. If an argan oil does not smell like the ordinary argan oil smell then its not pure argan oil. This oil made my hair soo beautiful and amazing especially my ends. I colour my hair and bleach has messed it up however since using this oil it has made my hair softer and more manageable. It’s the holy grail of all oils

There’s a reason it smells..
Ok, so it smells bad. But that shows me it’s 100% natural. The tiniest bit on your face topped with a serum primer gives the best make up base ever. Skin feels so soft too. Get past the smell of you can :) promise it’s worth it

Unpleasant smell
The oil has an extremely unpleasant smell, which has really put me off. Because of this I definitely won't use it on my face. The oil isn't a typically oily texture either. It's a lot harder to spread through my hair than other Argan oils (not sure whether this is a good or bad thing). I haven't really seen a difference since using it, and won't be repurchasing it.

Great for hair
استخدمته لشعري بعد الاستحمام ترطيبه طبيعي ما يبين مزيت ويرطب ويصفف الشعر بشكل جميل
ماله رائحة أصلًا عشان تكون سيئة
I used it on my hair after showering. It is naturally moisturizing which allows me to style my hair beautifully.
It doesn't smell bad at all.

Amazing for hair
Got this to help with my dry frizzy hair and it’s amazing. Less is definitely more with this so use sparingly on mid-ends of hair. I found it to work best when using as an overnight treatment the night before hair wash day so that you can apply generously and not worry about how greasy it is. There is a scent to this but it’s not as bad as people have said, to me it’s like an “earthy” smell which fades overtime. Such a bargain since it’ll last a long time.

Love love love
Yes this has a smell to it but I trust it more to be 100% cold pressed and organic because I was using Timeless argan oil and it hasnt got a smell and is thinner. This one is thick in consistency and applies so nice to the skin. Just a few drops on top of my moisturiser. Thank you The Ordinary for another great product.

Worst smell ever!
I try it for my hair the smell is so bad,, and so hard to wash off! i showered 3 times to get the smell out of my hair.

Dreadful for hair
My hair now resembles an oil slick. Awful. Not tried it on skin yet. Followed instructions and amount recommended. Don't bother.

Sub Par
I wasn't impressed with this product for use on the hair. It didn't seem to nourish my hair at all. The scent is also very reminiscent of a farm or fertilizer. Truly awful smell and not what you want to put on after bathing. I don't know if I just got a faulty batch, but I'm not happy at all.

Dianasedunova
NOT for hair use
Heavy for your hair, don't use. For body skin is ok. But if it's for body skin, then it's small bottle.
As an oil, nothing special, just argan oil, no expectations.

The ordinary moroccan argan oil
I am very satisfied with this product. It is very rich so I am adding it to my face cream and applying it that way. Don't need to use much so is good value for money.

Looknam
Smell very bad
I felt shock with smell but I try hard to use it in two week! Not help me for soft skin at all and scratch my skin (my skin sensitive) i got big complain about smell from husband he’s don’t wanna kiss me anymore lol so in the end I stop it.
And I can’t put on hair too because smell so strong .not buy it anymore .what I review it’s true

Kiki
Wouldn't be without it
I like this oil mainly because it's 100% Argan and you don't always get that. I use it in mornings occasionally evenings. When I've ran out my skin missed it badly and lost its luminosity. I'm prone to spots/blackheads and it does not make it worse. Although I do use other products from The Ordinary to combat this. Price is tremendous.

Great for the hair.
I was looking for an oil that I could apply in my hair to protect and soften it because I curl my hair every other day. I saw that this was for your face and hair, and for the price, you can't beat it. I purchased and have been using it for my hair on days that I don't wash it. It does have a slight scent, but I would still recommend it.
4
LAZ
Really nice product
I use this product for the ends of my hair as its prone to being super dry due to the length. I wash my hair as normal and then use a tiny amount that I rub into my palms and then apply to the ends of my hair. As a result, the bottle seems to be lasting.

GG
It works
I use this as a body oil before bed. It doesn't leave any sort of residue on the sheets, and I wake up with lovely smooth skin. I would describe the smell as a very strong olive oil - not unpleasant but not something I would choose as a perfume. But as I said, I apply it before bed, and by the time I wake up the smell has faded, so the smell isn't a problem for me.

gayathri
Good product
It makes my skin stay hydrated throughout the day. My skin feels so smooth and my hair appears shinier after the application. I have a oily skin but it didn't make it worse. Smells bad.

Oolong
Smell is too much
The oil works fine enough, it seemed to make my hair softer when I tried it. But I couldn't stand it being in my hair more than one. I honestly thought people were exaggerating when they said it smelled like farm animals/manure but this really does. I've never had a skin/hair item stink so bad it made me wretch before, but there's a first time for everything. If you're sensitive to smells stay well away.

Sandra
Not sure
It obviously depends what you are buying it for. I found it unpleasant to apply on my face, but it is perfect for my hair. I can't complain much for this price.

Jo
Not for everyday use
My hair type is thick but prone to oiliness.
I've found this oil heavier than what I've used previously on a daily basis - although there is no doubt that this is of higher quality.
I started out using a couple of drops every day but found it left my hair looking heavy and greasy. I've now started using it every 2-3 days, applying more on a weekend (when I'm staying in!) as a hair treatment. I've found this works much better for me and my hair is feeling thick, looks glossy and feels in better condition than before. It also means that I don't have to apply hair oil for my hair to be manageable, as I did before.
All in all, I'm pleased with this product - its high quality, affordable and very nourishing.

Organic waste
It smells like organic waste...I can't use it. I hope my one was a bad one and not all the products smell like this. But I opened it because of that I can not return it. Very disappointing. I'd never buy this again although I'm really into the other the ordinary products. Save your money guys and don't buy this!!

Geji
Does exactly what it says
The products which I purchased from Cult Beauty do exactly what it was meant to do. My face and skin feels 10 times amazing and all the stress pimples I once have disappeared within a week....definitely a returning customer; complements and questions about how amazing my skin looks and it's all down to Cult Beauty.

Gabi
Amazing
Aside from the olive-y type smell, which takes some getting used to, this oil is wonderful. I use it on my face and wake up to soft, plump skin. I have also used this on an area of stubborn dermatitis on my hand, which is now clearing up after nothing else worked. Thank you! I recommend this to all.

Mara
Love it
Pleasant, unobtrusive scent.
Perfectly hydrates the skin.
Well suited for facial massage. I enjoy using it.

Sana
Superb
I love this product. It works for both skin and hair. I always wanted to get pure argan oil but the price tag always keeps me at a bay. But this is great for the price and quality.

Marta
My to-go oil
Love it so much, it helps me with my fizzy curly hair. Helps the skin a lot to, I'll buy it again. Low cost, but high quality.

GREAT PRODUCT
Great product makes a real difference.

Amy
Amazing
At first, I was sceptical about putting this on my face as I’ve always struggled with easily agitated skin, but this mixed with the squalane and rosehip seed oil has done absolute wonders for my skin!! I couldn’t recommend it enough, many people have said how glowing and clear my skin has been ever since I added this to the mix.
5
Shen
Good!
Smells good and very good to use, it's happy shopping experience.
Always trust Cult Beauty; best goods, best services and never disappoint.
I will always choose and support Cult Beauty, will come to shopping again and again.

Noor
Absolutely wonderful!
I went to Morocco and got argan oil made from a factory where you can actually experience it yourself watching them make it for you. And trust me, this argan oil is exactly the same thing, pure, smells the same and if you ladies wanna keep your skin looking young and fresh then use this wonderful oil by massaging it on your skin, especially face and neck every night.A nd for wonder on your hair, massage it couple hours before washing your hair and you will see the wonders your self :)

Erl
Hair-saving
I have long, blonde, super fine hair, never coloured. It tangles like crazy and the ends are dry (but scalp is oily).
Most oils/creams/sprays/detanglers I’ve tried tend to sit on the hair, not really helping and only making the problem worse in the long run. 2-3 drops of this oil in my damp hair before combing makes all the difference. It does make it a bit greasier as the day goes by than using no products but I don’t mind.
4
Tim
Good!
Really nice and soothing oil formula with a nutty scent. I sometimes used it as a night treatment when my skin felt very dry, but the product feels quite heavy and doesn't sink into my skin very well. I stopped using it for my face and use it as a body oil now and that's absolutely a great idea. My skin feels very soft and smooth.
4
LL
Good oil
I am using it as a hair serum because I have dry hair. It gives the moisture and keeps my hair shiny. I read so many people complaining about the smell of it but it not that bad. There is an odour but its tolerable. I give 4 out of 5.
5
Sonam
Amazing oil
Great investment has helped my skin and hair very much.
5
Kristy D
Improvement
I definitely noticed in improvements with softer skin, hyper-pigmentation decreased giving way to more even skin tone and blemishes/acne spots disappear within a few days.
5
NTneem
Great moisturizer
I have combo-oily dehydrated skin, and this oil works really well! Use sparingly and it will sink into the skin straight away, it also creates a really nice base for sunscreen/foundation on top! Would recommend especially for the price.
5
Laurie
Very good
Use once a week directly on my scalp and through the lengths. Great shine and softness and will continue to use
5
Sara
So good but the smell isn’t great
My skin has suffered over winter and had really dry patches that any other moisturiser wasn’t even touching! I used this once at night after the lactic acid and woke up with a lovely soft skin for the first time in months. The only downside of this oil is the smell.
5
Holly
Amazing oil under make up!
I love this!
I use one drop in the morning before I apply my make up. I have very dry skin and every foundation or concealer looks so dry on me but with this oil underneath it just looks flawless. I also use this oil before I go to bed.
5
Una
For dry skin
I use this on my skin almost every night, and as long as I use it, it blocks out all my dry spots and dry areas. I have had cracking skin in the winter time for many years and this is the only thing that does the job.
5
anonymous
Perfect product
I don’t agree with the other reviews saying that the smell is bad and this is not a good product. The smell is okay and the product is really good! Also, when you use it on your hair, you don’t notice the smell. Must buy!
5
Danah
LOVE!
Used this product for my hair & eyebrows before sleeping. My hair feels way stronger (not to mention the added inches!) As for my eyebrows, it filled in the bald spots :)

Mavka
Not for me
Maybe the oil is good, but I can’t try it because I hate the smell. It smells like very old stinky olive oil.

Safia
The ordinary Argan oil
I’m so surprised about the reviews saying it smells so bad, I use this product for my face every night and I don’t see any bad smell smells normal and so good u can tell it’s 100% organic cold pressed which I really appreciate cuz it’s hard to find and it’s pricey elsewhere , my skin loves this oil makes me glowing

Pig farm
The ordinary Argan oil
I bought this for my dry damaged frizzy hair. It’s a good moisturiser for hair and skin but my word it smells so bad. It smells very much like a farmyard. It’s the only thing that would put me off buying this product again.
4
Han
Lovely but..
I love using this product for my hair, as I have very dry curly hair. It’s a good product, worth the price however for me the scent is quite rich.
4
J
Idk what I was thinking
I have no idea why I bought this or what use I thought I'd get out of it. As an oil and in comparison to its price, it's great. Does what it says. As described. But I just have no use for it besides using it as a mixing medium for the occasional hair mask.
5
Belle
The Ordinary Argan Oil
I have used this for a couple of years now. I use it as a moisturiser and it does not block my pores, my foundation glides on evenly over it and does not move all day, and I am also conditioning my nails at the same time. Anything left over on my hands I scrunch through the ends of my hair. I think this is such a great brand for offering affordable really high quality skin care to everyone. I also use their Vitamin C and Azelaic suspensions which are equally as impressive and better than anything I have tried at ten times the price.
4
Sam
Moroccan oil
Really like this oil and I feel like it’s great on both the hair and face but it is very heavy and has a strong scent.
5
sugarplumlizzie
Fab for skin and hair
I use this daily on my skin and once every few weeks on my hair. My skin tends to be dry, especially in the winter, but it’s really soft and hydrated. You only need a few drops so a little goes a long way. Great value for money.
5
Miracle in a bottle
1 oil to rule them all
Can be used to help revive dry make up, gloss hair and patch up dry skin. Only downside is the smell...
5
Chloe
The best serum for oily skin
I have oily combination skin, and some spots on my chin. It has not affected how many spots I get, and I think it stops my face getting oily throughout the day. I only use at night, as it does make my skin look greasy as it is soaking into my skin. Really helps with dryness around my nose as well.
4
Rain
Bad smell
It smells bad but it's nice. I have to use a few weeks more to understand how it works :)
5
N
AMAZING
Smells like a llama farm but is AMAZING! I suffer from psoriasis and eczema and this has worked wonders for my skin. The smell fades after being on your face for 10 minutes and that 10 minutes is more ham worth it. Would recommend to anyone.

юлия
Отличное масло
Хорошо питает и увлажняет кожу. Запаха почти не имеет. Использую по вечерам.
***It nourishes and moisturizes the skin. Has almost no smell. I use it in the evenings.***

Syaz
The best argan oil with the most affordable price
I used it on my hair and on my nails, around the cuticle. The oil work wonders. I could not care less about the smell because, for me, it is not actually that strong. I am on my way to buy my second bottle.
5
Amanda
The Ordinary
Amazing products. Work really well. Loved the silicone primer. Goes on well. Product stays well. Great price for an amazing product. Would definitely recommend.

Elin
Could not try it
The scent was too strong for me to try it for more than one time, too bad that I think that this could be a good product but the scent was too bad.
5
Alisa
Amazing
I use this oil on my hair once my hair is dry, it tames my frizz & gives amazing shine without looking greasy. A little goes along way.

kittykutz
The smell
I could not stand the smell - it smells like fertiliser from farms. My husband couldn’t stand the smell either and threw it in the bin - apparently, this is the worst smelling one out of all the other The Ordinary items. The other one I couldn’t stand the smell of was the Marine Hyaluronic - not as bad as this one but still bad - I’m rather sensitive to scents.
4
Valentina
Not sure
Cannot give 5 stars, but in overall good. The smell is weird, but you can always try to use some Batist to cover it. A couple of drops (and I have used oils a lot to know not to put much on hair) definitely make your hair greasier, so just be careful. It makes hair softer and healthier indeed, but if you're unhappy with greasiness just put a tiny drop on the tips. I prefer not to use this product as an overnight treatment, in the morning I need at least two showers to get rid of the oiliness. I have curly hair so I had to be extremely cautious with the oil, it kind of glues the curls and doesn't let them dry naturally. So my advice to curly ones, dry the hair and put a drop on the tips. The rest that's left on your hands - use for the rest of the hair. The skin loves it though. A dollop of the oil on your face overnight will make the difference.
5
Anna
Amazing!
Smells so nice and makes my hair feel so smooth. Also leaves my face feeling moisturised if I leave it on overnight. Now something I use everyday!
2
Leni
That smell though...
I have not tried it on my face or hair yet so I can't report on that, however, the smell of goat is definitely a huge turn-off. Put it on my hand earlier and it took about 10 minutes until the smell was gone, skin is soft but not sure yet if it's worth the smell.
5
Atiqah
Good product
Love it and it doesn't have that nutty smell.
5
Anna
The best oil for dry skin
Been using this for a week now and I totally can see the diff. Using it for my night routine.
5
Ann
Good face oil
I use it as my make up remover, hair oil and face oil. For the face, I mix it with rosehip seed oil. My friends are already complimenting. I mix it with glycerin and aloe vera gel too for using it as a face moisturizer. My hair became healthier too. Will repurchase for sure.
5
Hasya
Love it!
I love this product because it can be used in multiple ways! Both for skin and hair. Argan oil is perfect and makes my hair feel soft and healthy. I also love using oils on my skin at night (as I have oily skin) as it leaves my face feeling plump and moisturised! This is a great product.
5
Cherrelle1337
LOVELOVELOVE!!!
I adore this oil, I use it after shaving my legs, as a moisturiser for my face, neck and hair! On my second bottle now, its become a staple in my beauty routine.

MS
Strong smell but amazing product!
Even though the product has an extremely strong smell, I love using it both on my skin and hair. For this product, people buying need to keep in mind that "a little goes a long way". I learned this the hard way. My first experience was not as good because I had used way too much and it resulted in a very sticky and messy application.
About 1/2 drops for the face and 2 drops for shoulder length hair is sufficient, it needs to be worked well as the consistency of the oil is very thick. It although is a heavy oil but did not break me out, I have an oily T-zone and the rest is dry plus sensitive.
With about a month's use I have noticed that it has left my skin more hydrated- doesn't stay as dry as it used to, my brittle ended hairs have become softer and healthier and it has also helped skin that was slightly blistered near my ankle joint heal, which was the result of only 1 application.
I use it twice a week as the last step in my PM regimen, on a daily basis, I use The Ordinary's Rose Hip Seed Oil which is a fantastic product too! On my hairs I use it twice/thrice a week and leave it overnight, washing it off in the morning and then just a drop for my ends.
Overall it is an amazing product and works as it promises with the exception of the strong smell.
I would definitely buy this product again.

Smell so bad
I put 1 drop in my hair after showering.. my boyfriend gave me a hug and said: “your hair smells like a farm”.
Haha! Maybe mine is a bad batch but I simply cannot bring myself to use this. Definitely wouldn’t use it on my face as it took a few washes to get the smell off my hands.

Ali
Saving my hair
My blonde hair has recently gone so dry and brittle after moving to the UK (hard water etc) and this is slowly saving it and bringing back the shine.
5
Eloise
Really nice
This oil makes my skin really really soft and it has a nice natural scent.
5
Oksana
Very nice!
I love this oil! After this oil, my skin is very soft. I always put some drops of it in gel douche during the shower. Also, mix it with my foundation, and the result is great: smooth luxury skin)))
5
M
Permanently replaced my moisturiser
I love this so much! The smell isn't great, but it makes my skin so soft and very moisturised without feeling heavy or causing breakouts. Obsessed.
5
Nishadi
Lovely
It is easy to use and absorbs quickly to the skin, a little bit goes a long way. A good night time moisturizer for my skin, love this. I will repurchase it..
5
Farida
Not the best
I have dry sensitive acne prone skin, I’m used to beauty oils like Farsali rose gold and Kiel’s midnight recovery, that I like to use when my skin is super dry especially in winter. This oil however really breaks me out every single time I use it, I can’t recommend it for acne-prone skin.
4
Mrspeachyreid
Ok for the price
If you like your skincare to smell nice, or not have a smell at all don't buy this. Smells really naff. Has a nice texture, easy to use a bottle, don't wake up greasy or oily and really does a good job moisturizing but I wish I'd spent the extra few quid on the rose hip one.
5
Aisha
Great!!!
Second time buying. And I love it! I prefer this over the rose hip oil which I feel is more oily and times longer time to absorb. This immediately sinks into the skin and you can’t even tell you applied an oil. It doesn’t feed pimples either I think. Overall really great moisturiser for oily/ combination skin.
