Review of Aesop Aesop A Rose by Any Other Name Body Oil by nutsaboutmakeup

I dont really like this oil. If you want a good body oil smelling of roses, check out Jurlique’s (see my reviews).


1st. this doesn’t smell like roses, more of a spicy smell - probably the combination of pepper & cardamom. 2nd. oil is very thick & leaves a film on skin like it isn’t absorbed. I so want to shower after using this! 3rd. Troublesome. You gotta leave some water on skin so the oil can mix with the water to add moisture on your skin (no kidding, instructions of SA). 4th. even leaving water on skin which is crap cos you never know how much to leave on skin. I find myself using a lot of this on my damp skin. 5. utterly not spreadable. 6. I don’t know if it’s the pepper or what. But using this as a massage oil just about killed me. It actually made my skin hot (like it was burning) & it turned all red! I looked like a lobster.


wont repurhcase this
