I was disappointed with this product, I had the repellent and moisturing cream with repellent in it and did not work. It is more expensive than most. As I react badly to bites this spoilt my holiday to some degree. As I was in Europe I certainly would not use it in Afica or Central America or other countries with a mosquito problem.

I have just returned from a 3 week trip to Trinidad and Tobago, last year i was eaten alive by the mosquitos ( as usual ) so this year i was determined and did alot of research before buying the Incognito spray, soap, soap with loofah and after sun cream.
I loved the soaps and cream, however the mosquito spray was of no use at all as a deterrant and i once again have scars from the itching...... oh well back to the drawing board!

Good points: Smells nice, no deet
Bad points: Doesn't stop mossies biting
I am one of those people that mossies love to bite, if there's one in the room you can be sure it'll find me. I'm also widely travelled. Even the lower deet repellants don't work for me - it needs to be 50% (Expedition 50+ is brilliant but full of deet). Can't use deet at present as 5+ months pregnant.
I tried Incognito out on a trip to China; there were few mossies but I didn't seem to get bitten much and I was delighted. However, just back from Mauritius and will have the remaining bites for some time to come - at least 20 still going strong despite plastering Incognito on day and evening. There were quite a lot of rains, so lots of mossies, but to be honest I might as well have sprayed on water; i witnessed one of the little beasties munching my arm just 5 mins after spraying in that very spot!!
So maybe it works if you're not very prone to being bitten, or if not many around. Didn't work for me which was really disappointing after all the research I did to choose the best non-deet spray out there. Going to try Mosiguard next time and keep my fingers crossed.
