That's how much it burns when I use it. This is my first time using it, and I figured that I'd give it a week or two before posting a review about it. Even though it says alcohol free, every time I use it, I use the 60 or 1,000 seconds (it's all the same when your mouth is on fire) of swishing this product around in my mouth to reflect on my life's decisions, and how I got to the point where I'm voluntarily rinsing my mouth with liquid fire. Crest seriously needs to re-evaluate what is in the ingredients of this mouthwash (which by the way, is not listed on the bottle, so who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), because they are straight up lying when it says that there's no burn of alcohol.
And don't even get me started on the aftertaste. After you're done rinsing with it, my mouth has the distinct flavor which I can only describe as what I think nail polish remover and rubbing alcohol would taste like if you mixed them together and then tried to use that as mouthwash.
The one positive thing that I will say about this mouthwash is that it does not leave that weird filmy slimy substance in your mouth that I've experienced when I used certain Listerine products in the past.
I saw so many positive reviews on this, and I wanted to believe in this product, I really did, but I generally take pain as an indicator that I should stop using something. So alas, I'll say, it was fun while it lasted (lol j/k). I'll be searching for greener pastures and less fiery mouthwashes. Fare thee well. I'm off to find something cold to soothe the stinging in my mouth that I feel right now.
