  I did, but it didn't smell like anything. But, I was overwhelmed by seasonal allergies the entire time I was at this place, so my sniffing abilities were impaired. Posted 6 years ago

    Awww! The lemony odor can be muted at times, so your allergies may have gotten in the way of its subtlety. Posted 6 years ago
