This shampoo is reminiscent of a Malin + Goetz shampoo (<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Malin-Goetz-Peppermint-Shampoo/dp/B000VXUTFM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">(Malin + Goetz) Peppermint Shampoo</a>), only not as strong.  (Personally, I prefer the stronger mint smell of the Malin + Goetz version, but to each his own.)  Nevertheless, the Baxter shampoo works well.  It doesn't lather up overmuch, but gives my scalp a nice tingle.
