Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it
It's small and easy to keep in a pocket or gym bag. The menthol blend feels energizing without being harsh.
Skip it if
You're sensitive to menthol or strong essential oils.
The catch
$24.95 for three sticks is pricey for an aromatic. It's a sensory boost, not a fix for congestion.
