I’ve been using this butter for about a week now and I love it. I agree, that it can be whipped with just adding an oil of your choice…no heating or anything extra needed. I made a face cream with just this shea butter and tiny bit of sunflower oil, it’s so silky and just feels so creamy. The smell is very authentic and equates to the quality of the butter. It is very fresh, so that is how it smells….I love that! and will be ordering it again.
