This product had so much hype when it was first released, and many people seem to enjoy it tremendously.
I have used up 2 bottles of this concentrate, so I wanted to record down my thoughts on it. Maybe it'll help me to refresh my memories later down the road.
Kiehls claims that this product is able to " restores skin’s healthy appearance overnight, resulting in smoother, more radiant complexion by morning". I too, agreed that the oil performs an outstanding job at providing moisturization and radiance to the skin without being too oily.

Texture - Oil
Function - Smooths out skin and pores, while providing radiant glow to the skin
Smell - Subtle and soft (the lavender scent is supposed to make you fall asleep easier, but this never worked on me)
Price - $48 from Kiehls stores
You are suppose to use this concentrate after applying toner and before putting on moisturizer. Warm up the product between the palm and gently press it on the face. The heat from the hands allow the oil to absorb better to the skin. All you need is 3-4(max) drops of the concentrate and the key is to not over use it. There were times where I wanted to just use this concentrate alone (due to laziness) and used 5 drops for my entire face. It ended up feeling too greasy and I had to wash it off.
After the oil is applied to the face, let is sit for a while and then put on face cream. I find this very effective in removing the 'oiliness' feeling on the face. The first week after using my first bottle, I noticed a significant change to the look on my face. It really provides a 'glow within' look when you wake up. I didn't find any puffiness or dullness on the skin. However, as good as this product is to giving a smoother canvas to the skin, I don't think it does much in preventing breakouts or reducing the appearance of pores.
As much as I liked the product, I didn't find this product work as well on the second bottle. Maybe my skin has gotten used to the chemicals?
Bottom line, I would recommend this product to those that want to improve the texture of their skin. But I personally wouldn't use it consecutively because your skin might get too comfortable with the oil.
