Scent - The top notes are mandarin and orange, with a woody base. It's perfect if you enjoy hotel amenity scents like Jo Malone or Molton Brown. I'd love to try the matcha vanilla or other scents too. 2. Packaging - The bottle and cap feel like an upscaled hotel amenity. The container has a velvety soft texture, and new products have a plastic inner seal to open before use. 3. Application - I dislike stiff or overly rich emulsions, but the Dermatory Narrative body emulsion applies smoothly and absorbs quickly. The fragrance is subtly pleasant when applied. 4. Moisturizing - It provides ideal hydration for spring through fall. It's perfect for the current season and great for those who prefer a light, refreshing feel rather than heavy moisturizers. 5. Extra - The beautiful box makes it suitable as a gift. The product I received has a generous expiration date until 2025.
Cons> After dispensing the emulsion, some residue remains on the container's rim, which I wipe off and apply. I wonder if a pump bottle would dispense it completely, as it's not very sticky and might not pump well. However, the container is flexible enough to squeeze out the product easily, so it's not a major inconvenience. > I personally would have enjoyed more of the mandarin scent, but that probably wasn't the intended fragrance for this product. Otherwise, it would just be a mandarin body emulsion, right?
TipApplying it right after showering, while your skin is still slightly damp, enhances the moisturizing effect and fills the bathroom with a lovely scent.

I'm already using the shower gel from the same line, and I love how this body emulsion has a refreshing citrus scent with a hint of herbal notes - perfect for summer. The packaging design is sleek and attractive. I'd recommend this to anyone who dislikes sticky body lotions, as the formula is lightweight and absorbs well.
ConsAs it's a light emulsion, it doesn't feel very nourishing. While it's great for summer, I'm concerned it might not provide enough hydration for winter use. The container design is a bit inconvenient - a pump dispenser would have been more user-friendly. Also, the opaque packaging makes it difficult to see how much product is left.

Fragrance It's the orange blossom scent I've been searching for! The moment I smell it, I'm transported to the stepped streets of Croatia That neighborhood is famous for its orange trees I've tried various fragrances with 'mandarin' in the name, but none were quite right until now The blend of herbal, woody, and floral notes is truly artistic It's so natural and sophisticated that I'd buy it again for the scent alone 2. Hydration It might not be enough for those with dry skin in winter But for this season, it's perfect on its own without any tightness Very satisfying~ 3. Gentle formula Unlike many scented emulsions that are full of oil additives, this one feels clean It was comfortable to apply with no irritation
ConsAt 28,000 won for 300ml, it's not exactly cheap for a body emulsion The claim that the scent lasts 24 hours seems a bit exaggerated I've read in other blog reviews that white powder flakes off the packaging I haven't experienced this yet, but since it's not a pump bottle and you have to squeeze it, this might happen over time Also, the formula is a bit difficult to dispense
TipI think satisfaction would be even higher if used as a hand cream! The scent is really lovely, but the amount feels a bit small for full body use + I wrote this review as a Hwahae Tester winner

First impression: - A fresh, green nature scent (like verdant foliage?) emanates from the box Texture: - White, fluid cream texture Packaging: 3/5 (the lid needs improvement...) - The container has rigid top and bottom, but the body is soft and pliable - The flexible silicone container makes it easy to dispense without a pump, but it's challenging to keep the opening clean. Product tends to get stuck in the crevices Fragrance: 4.5/5 Personally, I prefer fresh, lively scents that aren't heavy for summer use, as heavier fragrances can unknowingly dampen my mood. This one hits the mark! - It has a sophisticated aroma ❤️Fragrance profile: Reminiscent of late spring or early summer, with lush green leaves, some trees bearing zesty fruit, and an abundance of verdant plants in a garden or forest setting. Upon application: A rich, fresh herbal scent (initially, I was surprised by the lack of zestiness, but as time passed, a refreshing note lingered) After a while: A hint of zest + a subtle floral note Much later: A refreshing scent 💜Note: Fragrance perception can vary from person to person! Moisturizing effect: 4.5/5 At first, I wondered if it would be enough, but it felt sufficiently hydrating for me now. It doesn't feel lacking in moisture. It might need more hydration for winter use. When applied before bed, the scent wasn't overpowering or headache-inducing. I enjoyed the subtle fragrance wafting up in bed. If you like fresh plant scents and zesty fruit aromas, you'll likely be satisfied. +] For those curious about its moisturizing properties: In May, I struggled with what seemed like keratosis pilaris on both upper arms. Finally, it subsided, but my skin was very rough and felt like it had a thin armor. After consistently using this product, my skin became much softer and improved significantly. So, I think the moisturizing effect is quite good. User experience: 5/5 - The fluid texture allows for easy application over large areas with just a small amount - It provides a suitable level of hydration for summer, not uncomfortably moist - The fragrance makes it suitable for both men and women!
Cons1. While it's great for summer use, it might not provide enough hydration for winter 2. The emulsion often gets stuck around the container opening, which is disappointing. Even after cleaning the rim before closing, residual product sometimes squirts out when opening the lid.
Tip💕 For those who want to apply a small amount, try applying it right after showering when your skin is still slightly damp - it spreads more easily with less product! 💕 It pairs perfectly with citrus-based perfumes!

Application It applies smoothly. I absolutely hate sticky textures, but this doesn't have that feeling at all. 2. Hydration For someone like me with dry to normal skin, it's great for summer use. 3. Scent I love that the fragrance is unique. It's a citrus scent with an intriguing woody undertone. It's not just a light fragrance, but has some depth to it. When I apply it before bed, I wake up with a pleasant, subtle scent on my skin.
Cons1. Hydration While it has a nice scent and is easy to apply, the hydration is somewhat lacking. It doesn't really address deep dryness or help with dead skin cells. If you have extremely dry skin, you might want to consider a different hydrating line. 2. There's nothing else particularly negative to mention. It's generally decent to use.

It's truly become my holy grail body emulsion. When you first apply it, there's a strong citrusy orange blossom scent, but that's just momentary. The lingering fragrance is absolutely incredible! It smells like baby powder, completely different from the initial scent but equally charming. The scent lasts for 24 hours (amazing longevity). It's so uplifting when I catch a whiff of it while working out and sweating. It's perfect as a fragrance substitute. I love how it absorbs quickly and feels light on the skin. As someone with oily skin, I dislike products that feel greasy, but this body emulsion absorbs instantly, so I can put on clothes right away without feeling sticky. The packaging is unique - while some find it inconvenient, I think it's special. Unlike pump bottles where product can dry out at the nozzle, this design prevents that issue. It's also great for carrying to the gym!
ConsThe only downside is the price. I received this product through the Hwahae Testers program, but I'm strongly considering purchasing it with my own money when it runs out. While it's pricier than other options, I think the quality justifies the cost.
TipThe scent is at its best about an hour after application. I recommend applying it an hour before going out if you want to use it as a fragrance substitute. I wouldn't recommend this for those with dry skin. If fragrance is your priority, go for it, but it might not provide enough hydration for very dry skin types. (I showed a picture of my foot to highlight the driest part. While it's not intensely moisturizing, it was sufficient for me!)

The scent is incredibly natural and eco-friendly. Rather than an artificial fragrance, it's more like being in a forest...? There's a woody feel to it. It also has a unisex vibe. In any case, it's an uncommon scent. I usually use unscented products or ones with very subtle fragrances, but this wasn't overwhelming at all, so I'm personally satisfied. The lingering scent after application was also pleasant. 2. The absorption is excellent. It absorbs without any stickiness, and while it doesn't feel extremely rich in moisture, it's not drying either. After some time, your skin becomes smooth. It's not that there's a noticeable hydration the next month after application, but you know that residual moisture you feel the morning after using a mask...? Anyway, the hydration is good for the current season. 3. I loved the simple and modern design. These days, I pay attention to design too, and I was satisfied as soon as I received it because it looked so pretty.
Cons1. It was a bit inconvenient to dispense the product after showering. The container is soft, so it wasn't hard to squeeze out, but I think I found it awkward because I'm used to pump-style dispensers. 2. There's nothing majorly disappointing, but for someone with extremely dry skin like me, it might be difficult to use in fall and winter. It's perfect for the current season though. I was looking to buy a new body emulsion as mine was running out, and I'm glad I found a product that fits just right.
