From the website:

My thoughts:
 
I bought the 2 oz unscented version and I LOVE it.  It's thick and creamy goodness, I only need a little to turn my hair into soft moisturize clouds, which is great since I have very thick thirsty hair.  Once I get home I will definitely buy the full 8 oz to include in my moisture regimen.
