I have not yet used this for the designed purpose as a nipple balm. However, I used it on my lips because I was curious to see if the taste would be neutral for baby since some of the ingredients naturally have a taste/scent such as olive oil, cocoa, etc. It has a neutral taste. It is also smooth and very moisturizing. It does have a very mildly detectable scent from the natural, nourishing ingredients. I love that it will be a clean, safe product for our baby and that you do not have to wash it off before nursing.
