It smells sooo good and it doesnt take much - a little roll on the wrists and behind the ears and you are good. The silver peice on the earbuds fell off after a day of using them and when I spoke on the phone while using the earbuds the person I was talking to said they couldnt hear me and I sounded like I was under water. So personally for me if I knew how hard is to get a shock mount then I wouldnt bought this. The spice jars are sealed for freshness. Not only that, the unit was hot to touch, as in nearly burning hot! There was also a post about those earpads on Cnets Audiophiliac blog. Very poor in quality and now in the trash. The third picture is of the semi-custom orthotics with a top cover. Love the noise cancelling and great volume control. 5 - 9 depending on the type of shoe.
