As a part-timer, my hands were constantly exposed to water, leaving them terribly dry. I knew it was time to invest in a good hand cream. As soon as I walked into Olive Young, the Type Number caught my eye. Drawn in, I sampled the scent and was immediately captivated by its rich musk fragrance with hints of wood - absolutely divine! While it might not be everyone's cup of tea, I fell in love with this scent and had to buy it. After applying it, my friends noticed the pleasant aroma and asked what I was wearing. When I showed them the hand cream, they found the direct scent a bit heavy, but my coworkers were sold and wanted to purchase it themselves. Scent preferences aside, the hydration is phenomenal. I adore this fragrance so much that I carry it with me to work and apply it religiously, even after quick bathroom breaks. I actually own the #12 as well! The scent is just too good! This is hands down my favorite hand cream... In my 22 years, I've often found hand creams uncomfortable and avoided using them, but this one has completely changed my mind. It's a game-changer!
ConsThere's not really anything disappointing about using this product, but if I had to mention one thing, it would be that the packaging is similar to an ointment tube. This makes me a bit nervous about it tearing in the middle while using it. However, it hasn't torn or leaked yet, so it's not really a concern.

But as I used it, I realized the lingering scent is really lovely! It's not too sweet and leaves a woody aroma, so I'd recommend it to wood scent enthusiasts! I have very dry skin, but I'm quite satisfied with the hydration it provides, except during the depths of winter. The packaging is also beautiful, making it great for gifting!
ConsHmm, I can't really think of anything. There's nothing disappointing about it! It's great!

It's the epitome of a woody fragrance! 💙Where to Buy💙 #MyOwnPurchase I bought it for 10,200 won through KakaoTalk Gift Shop. It comes in an adorable pink box with a ribbon, making it perfect for gifting! 💙Product Details💙 The expiration date is February 21, 2027, which gives it about a 3-year shelf life from the purchase date in April 2024. You'll notice the fragrance composition notes listed on the product, which I absolutely love! It's so helpful to see at a glance how the scent is composed when making a purchase. Top note - Sandalwood Middle note - Cypress Base note - Musk This is the fragrance structure of Soul Water. I'm a huge fan of woody scents with sandalwood, so I immediately grabbed this product when I spotted it at Olive Young!
ConsWhile those who love woody scents like me will adore this, it's worth noting that fragrances can be quite personal. It might be a good idea to test it out before purchasing to make sure it suits your taste!
Tip💙Affordable Alternative to a Luxury Scent💙 Have you heard of Diptyque's Tam Dao fragrance? I'm a huge fan of Tam Dao, and this hand cream smells incredibly similar! If Tam Dao's price tag is a bit steep for you, I highly recommend trying this hand cream as an alternative. It's a great way to enjoy a similar scent without breaking the bank!

The scent is absolutely my style - it's not an artificial woody fragrance, but just the perfect woody scent that's pleasant to smell!
ConsThe packaging is really disappointing. It bursts and tears easily, causing everything to leak...

It has a pleasantly neutral, well-executed woody aroma that's not overwhelmingly heavy. It's suitable for winter but won't feel too intense even in summer. Unlike some woody scents that mix in moss, earth, rain, leather, or musk notes, this one is more refreshing. With a hint of floral notes blended with wood, it reminds me of a morning forest. While I have very dry skin and the hydration is just okay (not unusable though), the lovely scent makes up for any shortcomings. I'll likely use it to the last drop and have about an 80% chance of repurchasing.
ConsThe lid is frustratingly small and doesn't screw on easily, often requiring multiple attempts to close properly. It's quite annoying! They should really switch to a flip-cap design for easier opening and closing.
TipFor those craving a heavier woody scent, try mixing this half-and-half with Flovea's Hinoki Leather hand cream. The Hinoki Leather has an intensely heavy woody fragrance, so blending the two creates a perfect balance.

I was always the type to use gifted ones or unfinished ones from others, but this one I purchased myself and used it to the last drop. I love woody scents, and this is exactly the kind I adore - forest, trees, earth. I'm really into these neutral fragrances. If you're a fan of Aesop or Le Labo, you'll likely enjoy this scent too. The application is smooth, it absorbs well, and doesn't feel sticky at all. It's just great.
ConsThese days, it seems like all the trendy brands are using aluminum packaging for that 'aesthetic' appeal. Honestly, I wish they'd all just stick to the classic tube format.

The fragrance lingers on your hands for quite a while too. I bought all three in this series, and each one has excellent scent projection. The hydration isn't bad either. It's not too light, but it doesn't feel sticky either. I love that it's not too big, making it the perfect size to slip into your handbag!
ConsTry as I might, I can't think of any downsides... The only thing might be that the name 'Soul Water' doesn't hint at its woody nature at all.
