This product does have a very mild scent but we love it!  We've had total strangers comment on how sweet our children smell. 

A little bit will go a long way with this product.  I'd estimate that our family uses three or four bottles per year.  I put the oil into a pump-top container so we can control each application a little better.

My children have sensitive skin, and we've used this product for over five years with excellent results. We use this Apricot Oil by Burt's Bees year-round.  In the winter, we like to apply this oil (mixed 50/50 with Burt's Bees Baby Bee Skin Creme) as soon as we pop out of the shower to seal in moisture.  It works like a charm!  It's great by itself as an after-shower oil in the summertime as well.

Burt's Bees focuses on providing all-natural products, and they provide a full list of ingredients on their site so you can check it out before you buy. I would not hesitate to recommend the Apricot Baby Oil to anyone - and I love it as much as my kids do!

Criticism:  I love the fact that this oil comes in a glass bottle but would appreciate some kind of built-in dispenser to help prevent spills. You can purchase Baby Bee Apricot Oil on Amazon.com

Another reviewer, Kaiya of Atlantic County, NJ, said this about Burt's Bees Baby Bee Apricot Oil:

"I have used this on my son since he was a newborn.  I brought it to the hospital to put on his bum to prevent the sticky newborn poo from sticking to his skin.  At home, an after-bath baby massage with this oil became part of our bedtime routine.  Now that he is older, I still use it as an after-bath moisturizer on occasion.

This product is "98% natural" and does not contain mineral oil which is the main ingredient in most baby oils.  Instead it has a base of apricot oil with vitamin E and lanolin blended in. I love the smell of this.  It smells sweet and babyish, without being overpowering or perfumey.

The only thing I dislike is that the bottle does not make it easy to dispense the oil and it is a little expensive."
