Forest Essentials Luxury Butter Soap Sandalwood & Vetiver Review

by Sone

I have a new love. Its sandalwood. I don’t know what is it about the fragrance, but it really makes me calm and rooted! The reason for my new found love is this soap that I am reviewing today.

When I say sandalwood, we all think of that particularly strong fragrance that is in the Mysore sandal soap and talks.

What if I tell you, this stuff here is the “real sandalwood” scent, with a musky, petricor undertone!!

My Experience with Forest Essentials Luxury Butter Soap Sandalwood & Vetiver

This soap comes in a luxurious double packaging. Here you can see the amount of butter in the soap the way it has reeked out on the inner cover :)

Now this soap is really good and sturdy despite being butter based. The fragrance is the killer amazing point. Muddy, woody sandalwood…if you like woody and petricor like fragrances, you will quickly get obsessed with this one. The fragrance lingers for a long time on the skin and your bathroom becomes a literal petricor heaven :)

One thing though, don’t sniff the soap itself. It is great smelling when used, but otherwise smells of stale white butter. That’s a eww factor, but I guess that’s coz it’s all natural. The smell of butter does not transfer on skin or anywhere.

Being a butter soap, it is not drying. But neither is it very moisturizing. I suggest you use a good moisturizer for supple and soft skin.

Forest Essentials products are awesome but also have an exorbitant price tag attached!
