The fragrance is the best among all the hand creams I've tried so far! I received it as a gift, used it once and liked it so much that I bought a second one plus the body lotion.. Many fragrance brand hand creams have overpowering scents, but this one is not too strong, which I like. The fragrance is not artificial and not too deep! I like the package design (but I'll mention the package itself as a drawback..ㅎ)
ConsThe package is rigid and + when folded too hard, it can create cracks and the outer packaging shell can peel off. You know the aluminum package, right? That's the one. But the first time I used it, I was flustered because of these issues, so for the second one, I wrapped it tightly with tape from the beginning, and while the design was funny, it worked well. The cost-effectiveness... The brand itself, 'Nonfiksheon', has a design+name+fragrance value, so the cost-effectiveness is on the lower side. For those focused on functionality, and those who prefer good moisturizing, this is not recommended! The moisturizing power is relatively low. There are many more affordable products with better moisturizing properties. As I mentioned in the pros, I personally don't like overly moisturizing products, so this actually worked well for me.
TipStart using it by wrapping the outer surface with transparent tape from the beginning! Otherwise, there will be issues with package shell powder + holes later. It doesn't really damage the aesthetics that much either (photo attached).

It also has a subtle hint of yuzu and rose, which gives it a gender-neutral quality, so it can be used by anyone. It has a creamy texture that spreads easily and absorbs quickly, leaving no residue for a clean, smooth application.
ConsThe moisturizing effect does not last very long, and the aluminum packaging means it can potentially leak when carried around.

When I applied it, a luxurious woody scent and a damp forest aroma came out, and it remained fragrant. Many people also commented that it smells like Chinese herbal medicine when using this hand cream. And I liked that the scent was strong and long-lasting, not fading away quickly. Also, when applied, it spreads smoothly like butter. It has the right amount of oiliness, and there is no sticky feeling after application. When I apply it right after washing my hands, it feels soft and smooth.
ConsSome people say that after using this hand cream, something strange appeared on their skin. Even after examining the ingredients, it doesn't seem to be very good. And the fragrance is also quite divisive, so it's fine to smell it yourself before purchasing, but I wouldn't recommend it as a gift.
TipSince it's an aluminum container, please use it from the bottom up. My container's lid got damaged from rough handling, so please be careful. ㅠㅠ

Then, the subtle scent of hinoki cypress gently rises up. I recommend this to those who enjoy the fragrance of hinoki.
ConsThe moisturizing power is not bad. However, for a perfumed hand cream, the fragrance seems to have relatively weak longevity.

It has a pleasant floral scent like a hotel diffuser.
ConsThe lid is a bit too small, which is slightly inconvenient. I'm using it as a gift, but I'm not sure if it's great value for the price.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is a solid, long-lasting hand cream. After using it, you'll get a lot of comments about the scent. It has a kind of Diptyque perfume vibe, but a unique, natural? fragrance. It's a scent that might be polarizing, so I'd recommend sniffing it first. I've heard it described as 'incense-like', 'deep and rich', and 'earthy'. So if you don't like the smell of incense or Diptyque, you might not like this. The fragrance is more masculine than feminine. I personally don't really prefer this type of scent, so I don't end up using it very often.
ConsIt's too lightweight and has zero moisturizing power. For the price point of a hand cream, the lack of benefits doesn't justify it. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone looking for a nourishing hand cream. It's really just a pretty package.
TipI definitely won't be buying this with my own money again. But it could work as a gift.

The grassy, earthy scent is just so lovely!~ My friend said it smells like men's cologne, but I liked the grassy aroma. * The design is also pretty ㅎ
Cons* For those looking for a highly moisturizing hand cream, the moisturizing power may be insufficient.
Tip* Since this is a scented hand cream, please keep that in mind when using it.

ConsㆍIt's not overly oily, but when applied to the palms, it feels a bit slippery, so the oiliness is bothersome. That's why it's better to apply it only on the backs of the hands

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI really agonized a lot when choosing the fragrance, but it's really good. It's not too much, just a sophisticated man's skin + earthy + forest scent, so when I smell it, I feel refreshed without a headache. Even though I'm a woman, it has a unisex feel, so it's personally very much my style🥰 However, after washing my hands, I have to apply it generously several times.
ConsSince the container doesn't spread evenly and hardens, if you start applying it from the front, it will be difficult to squeeze it out later?If you accidentally put it in your bag and it gets dented, you can't undo it... And honestly, it's not just for dry skin. I have very dry hands, and at first I thought it was fine, but after using it for a while, no matter how much I apply, it feels as dry as not applying anything at all when my hands are very dry..the moisturizing power is quite disappointing.ㅠㅠ On dry days, it feels quite drying. But since the scent is good, I just apply it to my wrists.
TipFor those who dislike strong fragrances or perfume-like scents!, This is a fragrance recommended for those who are not averse to the natural phytoncide scent of plants+soil and the scent of men's skin.

The fragrance is also pleasant.
ConsThis is a hand cream with moderate moisturizing power, so it may not be suitable for those looking for a highly moisturizing hand cream.
