Do you like Fougere Scents? Shower Gel Review

[sniffman]

I've always been partial to fougere scents, and I mean the original concept of fougere , not its metamorphosis over the years. I know there are fougere soaps by Penhaligons and Valobra (can't get any more Roger & Gallet Fougere soap as I believe they are out of production), but I've gotten away from soaps a while back and switched to shower gels. That's why I was excited to receive Penhaligon's English Fern Shower Gel. It has the exact same fragrance as the EDT. A little goes a long way and it lathers luxuriantly. It's rather pricey but it can last a long time if used judiciously. The fragrance lasts after the shower for a long time, so I really think this is a great investment as there seem to be very high quality ingredients.

I am not a particular fan of English Fern, but kudos to Penhaligon for doing bath products of most of their scents. I like bath oils and P is one of the few brands that produces them. A jicky or mouchoir de monsieur bath oil would be really fantastic.

Yup, I like the fougère scent in shower gel. My personal favourite is Trumper's Wild Fern, although it tends to stay a while on my skin which I don't like as it interferes with my perfumes.
