very rich, smells divine
Grown Alchemist Hand Wash: Cedarwood Atlas, Ylang Ylang, Tangerine - Aromatic Hand Cleanser Infused with Relaxing Scent - Natural Bioactive Botanicals Leave Skin Clean and Balanced - 500mL is the perfect hand wash if you need a wash which not only cleanses your hands but also leaves them feeling soft and conditioned.I fully understand it is a considered purchase due to the high price, but it is one you would buy for your own ensuite bathroom or for when you know you are going to have a special visitor and you want to impress or even spoil that special person in your life. Would make a perfect gift and one which would be well received.Happy to recommend.

Stinks and expensive
Bought this to replace our Aesop due to being cheaper. Unfortunately it stinks, smells synthetic and not in a good way. Avoid.

Expensive, plastic bottle
Ever since covid and we all being more aware of cleaning our hands regularly, I’ve had a penchant for high end hand wash, thus making regular hand washing feel a little treat! To be honest, when buying expensive hand wash, I go for looks first and when I saw this, I thought the bottle looked understated but classy. I WAS expecting a glass bottle but this is plastic and not too dissimilar in size, shape and material to cheap Baylis & Harding. The scent is a strange one… I can only describe it as musty zest. It’s definitely a more masculine fragrance. I only needed to use one pump to wash my hands so this will be long lasting. It not only looks but feels a slimy wash, it does lather up semi well and when washed off, my hands definitely feel squeaky clean and the strange scent lingers a while. I’ve got to admit, I’d never heard of grown alchemist before and therefore are not familiar with their products and based on this ignorance, I’m gobsmacked at the price for this hand wash. I am a bit of a sucker for luxury branded hand washes and if this was in a glass bottle with a delicious scent, I’d probably investigate this brand further but on my experiences with this hand wash, I won’t be buying into the brand. If this was the same price as Baylis, I’d probably choose Baylis and that’s coming from a self certified hand wash snob!

Expensive but aimed at anti ageing the skin
This is a very nice soap, in a premium looking dispenser. 500ml will last me a while as I find one pump of the dispenser is more than sufficient.It feels lovely and silky as I rub it in, no doubt because of the oils, and my skin feels very soft after using it so I don’t need to follow it up with hand cream. I love the scent which initially I could smell the zingy tangerine when I pumped it into my palm.I was interested to investigate the company behind Grown Alchemist and why it is a premium brand so I had a look at their website and it appears they aim to produce vegan, natural products with anti ageing properties.I generally don’t buy expensive creams and potions for anti ageing as I’m not convinced they work but I’m going to keep using it and see if it has any effect on my hands which are starting to age.

A gentle and hydrating handwash
This hand wash comes in a dark brown plastic bottle with a plastic pump dispenser.I have very sensitive, dry skin and tend to react badly to soaps - I'm very sensitive to SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) in particular. This soap is SLS-free and uses sodium lauroyl sarcosinate as a surfactant instead. It sounds similar, but sodium lauroyl sarcosinate is not at all related, it is derived from coconut oil and is far more gentle and natural and not known for causing irritation.I can confirm that this soap is very gentle on my skin and doesn't leave it feeling dry at all - it actually feels very soft. I usually use Dr Bronner's which is another quite expensive SLS-free soap, but I actually prefer this one as it leaves my skin feeling much softer and more hydrated.It doesn't foam up a lot, but since I always tend to use SLS-free soaps, I'm used to this and it isn't really an issue - it is quite easy to distribute and cleanse.The smell is actually much fruitier than I was expecting, you can definitely smell the tangerine. The cedar and ylang ylang add a subtle earthy, woodsiness - it is a really lovely smell, just a bit sweet.It may seem expensive, but if you're looking to take care of your skin or avoid adverse reactions to nasty chemicals, I'd 100% recommend this soap.

Grown Alchemist Hand Wash. Cedarwood Atlas, Yang, Yang, Tangerine.
This hand wash from Grown Alchemist is lovely. This is my second of these gorgeous hand washes and I love everything about them. Huge bottle - 500ml making this extremely good value for money. You only need two pumps for a lovely lather and the scent is gorgeous.This is a lovely hand wash which will make a thoughtful gift. The wash is very moisturising and since using this brand of hand wash I have not needed to apply hand cream. Very impressed and love the fact I can buy refills for these gorgeous bottles and cut down on buying more plastic. Five stars.

Wasteful and very odd smelling
This is an odd smelling hand soap (husband likened the smell to turps) it hasn’t made my hands feel any softer, quite the opposite, it’s like washing your hands with washing up liquid, and the fragrance lingers for a long time on the skin.On to the pump dispenser, even a small press dispenses a huge amount of soap which you’re left trying to rinse off your hands, a bit harder and you’ll overshoot the basin with the force of the soap - as my husband did when I asked him to try it. Given the high price I’d have expected a better quality bottle and pump.It’s vegan, cruelty free etc, I wouldn’t recommend it though, for this price I do want softer hands and a nice scent, maybe even a glass bottle.

Natural Herb Fregrance
Smell is natural herb, very relaxing. I can smell while I'm washing my hand, but it doesn't stay long. It's gone after 5-10min. So, it doesn't bother me to eat or drink after washing hands.

Too watery!!!
This soap is not at all like expected. It is VERY watery and made a mess all over my counter and is dripping out of my container. Very displeased with this and will not be re-ordering. Also the scent is not as I expected…it smells like woodsmoke and oranges.
