One thing about jasmine is, it's a very distinct and somewhat powerful scent. There is no mistaking it. However, I really can't pick up the jasmine in this. The scent, overall, is very light. But all I pick up is a unique minty scent. It does give a nice scent into the room. My recommendation for this would be smaller rooms, such as a bathroom, that the scent is going to stay more concentrated. It burns slowly and cleanly. It doesn't seem to put off much soot and no dark smoke. Obviously scents are a personal preference, this one isn't one of my favorites. But if you're a fan of light mint, you might like this.
It came very well packaged, with bubble wrap on the bottom of the box, and bubble wrap completely encasing the jar. Cute little cork type top.
