If I buy it again, it'll probably be because of the scent. It has a truly fresh and vibrant aroma that lifts my mood. The texture varies with the weather: on warmer days, it's like a light cream, while on colder days, it has a rich, buttery consistency.
ConsThe steep price is the first drawback, and the short shelf life is the second. I found myself using it for longer than expected, but the short expiration date made me feel uneasy once it passed. Nevertheless, I managed to use it all up by applying it to my neck! Occasionally, when my skin wasn't in the best condition, I felt a slight tingling sensation upon application. However, this didn't lead to any blemishes or other issues afterward.

However, as someone with dry skin, I felt it didn't quite absorb fully...
ConsSuddenly, I started getting blemishes. I think I might need to go back to my usual product...

The fragrance is pleasant.
ConsI was expecting a thick and rich texture since it's marketed as a firming cream, but as someone with very dry skin, I found it lighter than I had anticipated.

After application, it doesn't feel sticky at all and seems to provide great hydration.
ConsIt seems pretty good overall, except for the fact that it's a bit on the pricey side.

I purchased this product directly from a monastery in Italy, so it was more affordable than buying it in Korea. I believe it cost around 50,000 won.
ConsIt feels a bit heavy on my combination dehydrated and super sensitive skin. The oil and moisture balance could be better. I was surprised again when I looked at the ingredients. It's disappointing that they seem to raise the price almost every year because so many Korean tourists buy it. It makes me feel like we're being taken advantage of.

Since it was a regenerating cream, I bought it with high hopes. The scent was absolutely lovely. As I have oily skin, I only applied it at night. During the day, I prefer lighter products to avoid pilling, and my skin tends to get quite oily. I couldn't handle the rich texture of this cream during the day. In conclusion, my July duty-free purchase was a huge success. I used it sparingly until August when I had another trip, so I bought two more bottles - one for my grandmother and one for my mom and me to share. For oily skin, this cream provides enough richness in winter. Personally, I loved the scent, and my skin condition was really great the morning after using it. I'm just sad I can't buy it at duty-free anymore due to COVID... I hesitate to pay full price though.
ConsI think the full retail price is quite expensive. While the fragrance is nice, those sensitive to scents might find it a bit strong.
TipI'm sure I put the empty bottle somewhere, but I can't remember where. Only the boxes are left! I'll upload pictures of the boxes at least.

The fragrance is even better than Idealia. It's a regenerating cream, so I only used it at night, but I noticed it didn't absorb completely.
ConsI was shocked when I checked the ingredients... Seems like overseas products aren't as ingredient-conscious. This product pills when applied, coming off like dead skin cells. It's one of those disappointing products I paid a lot for without seeing results. When I inquired, they said it doesn't absorb well if there are dead skin cells, but even after exfoliating, it was the same story. Just not compatible with my skin.

ConsIt's quite pricey... I think it might be difficult to purchase unless you find it at duty-free shops.

Applying it feels like a therapeutic experience. I expected a thick texture since it's called a regenerating cream, but it's more like a soft butter consistency. It's not heavy, just average in weight.
ConsI'm satisfied that it doesn't cause any blemishes when applied. However, it's a bit lacking on its own during winter, so I'm layering it with something more hydrating.
