I've tried several of the Korres shower gels, and have been generally pleased--Jasmine is my favorite, but Guava, Basil Lemon and Cedar are also quite good. The only issue--the spice scents don't ring as true as the other scents (Vanilla Cinnamon wasn't spicy enough, and Nutmeg smelled nothing like nutmeg). Overall good gentle lather, attractive minimalist packaging, and some emphasis on natural ingredients.

Daisy is my perfect scent for light-fragrance days. The violet, happily, comes across as the dominant note followed by a fresh greenness. The bottle's adorable design perfectly captures the Daisy aesthetic as well--clean, fresh, airy, sweet, yet still meant for a grown woman. I just love it!

I don't usually go for gardenia scents, as they tend to fall short of natural-scented. But this one is much more complex. It's elegant, exotic and modern at the same time, managing to work in both cold weather and on a sultry summer evening. Love it!

I've always hated the smell of Chanel No. 5; it simply smells "perfumey," not like any particular scent. To me, it's always smelled like "rich old lady"! I don't know why it's so revered as a classic favorite...

I bought this as a nighttime moisturizer for my moderately oily skin, because I like a lot of the Philosophy products. However, after applying it over a an anti-aging serum (part of my skincare routine), I noticed a a horrible formaldehyde-like smell. (I have a degree in biology, so I've spent time around formaldehyde. This smelled like the old laboratory.) After looking it up on TotalBeauty, I saw that it comes up as containing "formaldehyde-releasing preservatives." I wish I had read that sooner! Do not buy this product.
