Does all neem oil smell like cat sh\*t? Or do I need to return this?! 😂😅 This was the first time I’ve tried neem oil. I literally gagged and threw out the glove with spray on it because I didn’t even want to deal with it 🤢

I got 100% neem oil to make my own mixes. I swear it smells like if a roided up everything bagel hit the gym for 8 hours straight 🤣 Idk it’s just like oniony, yeasty, and musky but all in a very unpleasant way
