Does this smell like witch hazel?

Hi, The Ordinary Salicylic is made of witch hazel , So maybe there is a slight smell, and that is maybe sweetie , thank you. Combat acne with the Salicylic Acid 2% Solution from The Ordinary; a clarifying, blemish-fighting solution that gently sheds dead cells from the skin’s surface and calm redness and inflammation. Enriched with exfoliant Salicylic Acid, the solution penetrates the interior walls of congested pores to unclog and clear impurities, increases circulation and helps clear excess sebum and regulate production. Key ingredient Witch Hazel is a natural astringent and anti-inflammatory that aids in killing acne-causing bacteria and effectively protects the skin from oxidative stress and environmental aggressors such as smoke, pollution and UV light. Free from alcohol, oil, silicone, nuts, gluten and soy.

It works!!!

I’ve been using this product for about 6 months now, and it WORKS!! I had started noticing bumps, blackheads, and excess oil on and around my nose, so i did some research, and took a chance. At first i put on the serum every morning and every night, which was working well, but it had started to dry me out and cause the area to be flaky. Then i actually read the back of the bottle and realized it’s a once-a-day type of thing! 6 months in i haven’t noticed any blackheads, bumps, and significantly less cystic acne as well! If you have texture and blackheads on your nose, give this product a chance. Maybe don’t use it on anywhere other than your T-zone, but i highly recommend this product!
