Cons: Scent may affect cooking?
I’m not an expert when it comes to seasoning cast iron but I do notice the difference for the better.
I used to just put cooking oil on my cast iron pan and it did protect the pan. However, when I start cooking it seemed to stick to food easily. Additionally, when you leave it on for a long time it seems to make it even more sticky because of all the dust and whatnot it picked up.
Read reviews about this product and everyone seems to agree this is good. I use it and it doesn’t take much to coat the pan. It also has a scent which is welcoming but when you cook it smells like you’re cooking off scent. Annoying but not a big deal.
When I cook with this it does do a better job at coating the pan. So I’m a believer in not using cooking oil to protect your pan. My next I purchase is going to be the cleaner as it supposedly help not remove the seasoning.
I thought the price was high but as I mention it doesn’t take much to season so it should last a while.
Overall, happy with the value and quality.

Everything was given a good scrub and then we used this oil to re-season them. Wow, what a difference a good oil makes. Once done in the oven, the cast iron looked brand new. There wasn't any off or burning oil smell, no greasy residue - just a set of great looking cast iron cookware. Since their cleaning and re-seasoning with this Caron & Doucet oil, these cast iron pots and skillets get constant use. We haven't run across any problems with aftertaste, odors, or abnormal food stickage. All it takes is a very small amount to fully coat a cleaned skillet or pot. We've been using this little bottle for almost a month now and still have 3/4 of it left.
Gotta admit I am impressed with this product now that I'm over the sticker shock. One improvement I wish they would make would be to include a spray top. After misjudging how much oil to use on the first couple items, I found a empty metal spray bottle that was purchased empty for some craft project but never used and luckily the spray cap fit this bottle perfectly. Being able to simply spritz the cast iron surface then wipe it down is quicker and easier and can help the oil last longer since it is a lot easier to control how much you use.
If I had realized how small this bottle was before clicking the "Buy it Now" button, I probably wouldn't have purchased it thinking It was too expensive and would have then wasted time looking at similar products on Amazon and other sellers as well as instructions on doing this with other oils. It IS pricey, but some of the other DIY methods we've tried on our cast iron cookware haven't had results as good as we got with this product or the smell was awful when the oil used went rancid on the cookware. But, I am glad I wasn't paying attention as this turned out to be a pretty darn good product. I did deduct a start for not having a spray top and for the price which could come down a couple bucks.
Until finding the Caron & Soucet Cast Iron Oil I was unable to get a satisfactory seasoning (why do they call it seasoning, when you don't want it to season your foods??) on my cast iron pans. In fact, after I bought a lot of cast iron pans when I got an induction range, I ended up not using them because I just couldn't get the whole seasoning process to work for me.
This year I decided I would get serious about using my pans as the large non-cast iron saute pan I bought was not working out well.Here's what I do and what role the Caron & Doucet oil plays.
Assuming the pan is already seasoned...
1. I pour some water in the pan after I use it, while I'm doing other dishes, just to soften up any food in the pan.
2. When my sink is clear, I put the pan in the sink and run hot water into it and pour off what comes out easily - often that's everything.
3. Any pits and pieces left, I either use my little piece of what looks like steel chain mail, or a toss in a large pinch of kosher salt. Either way I scrape off the bits and pieces.
4. Rinse and dry... and here comes what made the difference to me
5. Instead of turning on the oven, I put the pan on the range top. I set it at a low heat (remember I have induction so it heats up faster and probably hotter than another range) for 10 minutes. I check that the whole pan is warm by QUICKLY touching the handle. It should be toasty but not blister level with a quick touch.
6. I then put in just a few drops of the Caron & Doucet oil and wipe it all around the bottom and sides of the pan with a paper towel.
7. Turn off the range and it's done. ALthough once maybe every 2-3 weeks or 10-12 uses I use a little more oil, leave the pan on the range another 10 minutes after wiping the oil all over and then re-rub the oil around.
The Caron & Doucet oil has no smell, leaves no aftertaste (I do cook some delicately flavored things in my cast iron pans - so I would know), doesn't turn rancid and WORKS.
Top reviews from other countries
Secondly, product is great for maintaining cast iron pans. Esspecially ones you don't use every day. It gives the pan a tremendous clean and oily shine. You really don't need much, and it's not super runny, you can spread it around quite well. I wouldn't say its the best for seasoning your pan, i would still use Grapeseed oil, or Peanut oil or something similair. I use mine every day, so once its properly seasoned, this works well to maintain it.
It smells really fresh, a bit citrussy. I do reccommend, but not for high heat seasoning of your pan. It smokes up quick.
