Review title is I wanted to love these, but the smells.... [SEP] I love a relaxing bath in fall and winter, and I purchased these bath salts about six months ago. Some pros are that I like the milky options, they make the bath feel a little more luxurious, and the placebo effect of the milkiness makes me think the salts are actually doing something significant (I dont really think they are, but that's not really the reason I use them anyway). The colors are kind of fun, although the yellow looks a little too similar to dehydrated urine. The huge con for me is the smells are so overtly chemical. They smell like bad laundry detergent. The smell is heavily concentrated when you first pour, as it fills the air of your bathroom with its harsh chemical smell. This subsides a little after a while, but the fake synthetic chemical smell doesn't really relax me. I was looking for something to smell gentle and natural, like the descriptions evoke (I used the camera feature on Google Translate to decipher them). I wouldn't buy these again--I think I'm looking for something a bit more sophisticated in scent.
