best “expensive smelling” body wash

• The reviewer has been on a quest to improve the way they smell, their home smells, and to provide a nicer overall environment and experience for guests and visitors.
• The quest has included body washes, hand soaps, and hand lotions.
• Molton Brown’s product range includes a variety of bath and shower gels with different fragrances.
• The Molton Brown products reviewed by the author mostly all have good fragrances.
• The author states that all the Molton Brown fragrances reviewed are pretty safe, meaning they do exactly what Molton Brown positions themselves to do and they do it really well.
• Coastal Cypress & Sea Fennel has a crisp, citrus-and-light-herbs aroma and is pleasant. It smells like upscale slightly-generic “clean” in the best way. There’s some salinity and minerality that gives you that coastal sea breeze vibe without tilting into soap-y tang.
• Dark Leather smells very earthy, loamy, and a little smoky. Their notes say pine, but the author did not get any of that - it reads to the author more like “high school hippies.”
• Delicious Rhubarb and Rose smells like grapefruit, rhubarb, citrus, with a little rose on the breeze (kept fresh rather than cloying). It’s bright and lilting, and the author expected to hate it, but it might be one of their favorites.
• Fiery Pink Pepper smells fresh, juicy, and refreshing. The author gets ginger, a little spice, a dash of florals, and some fruit.
• Flora Luminare smells like jasmine and rose. It is rich but not overly heavy, and it is actually a little refreshing.
• Geranium Nefertum has a fresh, slightly vegetal top note that smooths into a creamy, slightly vanilla-like base.
• Heavenly Gingerlily is their current limited release. It’s fresh and light, but not interesting.
• Infusing Eucalyptus smells exactly like every single other mint/eucalyptus/tea tree oil product the author has ever sniffed.
• Orange and Bergamot is not as citrusy as was expected. It’s more of a creamy floral with neroli and ylang-ylang heart and musk base.
• Re-charge Black Pepper smells like black pepper opening, coriander heart, and vetiver base. It’s a nicely fragrant slightly earthy slightly spicy mix. Leans masculine but not aggressively “dude-y
