This product was my first introduction to shower oils. At first, I really didn't like it. As others have mentioned, the lather was ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ, barely there, which felt strange. I was so perplexed that I decided to look it up. Shower oils are not used the same way as regular body washes. You have to work up a lather with your hands and then rinse it off. So I tried it that way. 1. Lather Even when used properly, the lather isn't as abundant as with regular body washes. For someone who's used to body washes their whole life, it felt very unfamiliar, confusing, and disconcerting. I understand that it's an oil, but the lack of lather when having to manually create it was disappointing. 2. Convenience However, it is more convenient. It may seem minor, but not having to use a shower puff or towel to create and rinse off the lather shortens the shower time, which I appreciated. 3. Moisturization My skin has been extremely dry lately, and I did feel it was less drying than regular body washes. It's definitely not as intensely moisturizing, but after showering without applying anything else, there's a very subtle, barely-there soft, oily feel (maybe a 2 out of 100 in terms of oiliness). At least the tight, itchy dryness has been significantly reduced. And a bit TMI, but on the days I don't shower for a day or two, there's a velvety, soft body cream-like feel (maybe a 12 or 15 out of 100 in oiliness) - a completely different type of moisture than regular. That made me realize it does have some moisturizing benefits. However, for me, it's still not enough moisture on its own, so I still apply a body cream afterwards.
Cons
4. Fragrance When I first smelled the fragrance of the product itself, it wasn't too bad. It had a blend of coconut and almond, and while neither is really my preference, I didn't dislike it either. However, the fragrance after use... it's like the smell of an eraser 😭 I feel like my body has turned into an eraser 😂😂😭 5. Ingredients Personally, I don't react well to linalool and limonene ingredients, and I think that's the reason why it's itchy for me. I don't feel overly dry after using it, but the itchiness makes me wonder what's going on. It's probably due to those ingredients 😢
Tip
It's not bad. For people with very dry skin or those who need to shower twice a day (once with body wash and once with shower oil), this product could be helpful. However, I'm not necessarily recommending this specific product, but rather the idea of using a "shower oil" product for those individuals. There's no real need to get this particular product. I would give this product a rating of around 3.4.

I received a gift from an acquaintance and it was a large size, which I liked, and the spreadability also seems not bad.
Cons
The fragrance was not to my liking, which was quite disappointing. However, in terms of moisturizing performance, it seems to be satisfactory.

I was amazed that the moisturizer maintained a soft and supple feel on my dry skin without the need for body lotion, when I first used it after receiving it as a gift. Since then, I have continued to purchase and use it.
Cons
Compared to the previous product I used, this one is a bit more expensive.

This product was a gift from a friend who visited L'Occitane and received it as a sample. I tried it and loved it so much that I decided to purchase it and use it. The first thing is that the fragrance is really lovely. In the summer, I use Jo Malone Lime Basil & Mandarin Body Wash or Biotherm, but the fragrance is just too refreshing. In the cold winter like these days, the warm fragrance of this product is much more preferable than a cool one. I'm not sure about the cleansing power, but it seems to have good moisturizing properties. So from now on, I will definitely use this product every winter.
Cons
The downside is, of course, that since it is sold at a department store, the price is a bit high. Next, since this product focuses on moisturization, the cleansing power is a bit weak. And as the name suggests, it is a shower oil, so while it is a wash, the lather does not come out very well, and you have to pump it several times, which ends up using a lot of product. ㅠㅠ
Tip
This product has great moisturizing power, so these days in the winter, I have to apply body lotion after showering. But in the summer, it leaves my skin so moisturized after using this product that I can even skip the body lotion, which is great.

The fragrance is truly high-end and the value for money is great. I tried other shower oil products, but I came back to L'Occitane.
Cons
There is not a single flaw, and it seems to be the best shower oil product.

It's not as oily as I expected and washes off smoothly. The scent is particularly appealing. The smooth application makes it suitable for various skin types, but it would be especially beneficial for those with dry skin. Those with oily skin may find it more useful during seasonal changes.
Cons
I prefer a more refreshing product, so this worked well for me during the transitional seasons.

My body skin tends to be dry! I don't really like the feeling of my skin being completely parched after showering. Even when using a rough towel to wash, my skin still feels soft and moisturized, so when I apply body lotion, it spreads on more smoothly!
Cons
I usually find the body wash scent refreshing, but it's not too strong. It has a subtle, not entirely invigorating aroma, which doesn't quite suit my preference. 🙁 But if I received it as a gift, I'd still feel happy about the body wash!
Tip
I feel like this body wash doesn't lather up as much as others. But even though it's a bit of a hassle, if you wet your hands a bit and lather it up a few times, the foam comes out quite nicely on the rough towel! For those who find lathering up annoying, using a shower puff would probably be a good idea.

The fragrance doesn't seem too artificially sweet or overpowering. It's more suitable for winter than summer. The fragrance lasts reasonably well after showering.
Cons
As an oil wash, it is very drying. Since I have dry skin, I'm not sure if it's because my skin's oil is being stripped too much. I would have been better off with the Bioderma Sensibio Gel Moussant - that product was a bit better. As an atopic dermatitis sufferer, I had high hopes but this product disappoints. If you don't like strong fragrances like Avène or Bioderma, I wouldn't recommend this.

The fragrance is pleasant... It's savory, soft, and has a sweet aroma. Even after washing, it remains moisturizing and hydrating for a long time. It produces a lot of lather, so it rinses off well and feels great.
Cons
In the middle of summer, it can feel stuffy, so I'd avoid using it then. Other than that, I think I could use it all the time... The sweet, savory scent might make it feel too heavy, so it might be difficult to use during the hot season.
Tip
It's good to use it on your hands, but it's even better to use it with a loofah to create a lot of lather and rinse it off thoroughly. Using it with an oil would also be beneficial.

As soon as I opened it, I could smell the almond scent, and an oil-like texture came out, but the foam forms quite richly as expected. After showering, there is an overall moisturizing feeling, as if I had lightly oiled my skin. It seems good to use when the seasons change and my skin starts to get a bit dry.
Cons
The almond scent might be divisive. If you smell it for too long, it might give you a headache..
Tip
I feel a bit reluctant to use it since I bought it with my own money, but it seems like a good gift option for others.
