Since I have to use it so often I want it to smell gorgeous! DH brought some home from work which smells so vile I can’t use it. Please recommend the nicest one you’ve found.

I don't know what it is, but the one they use in our M&S smells gorgeous and doesn't feel remotely sticky. If anyone knows what it is, I'm very interested!

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 14/01/2021 17:37

I was going to say the one M&S had around Christmas! We thought it was a ruse to get you to buy more Christmas things. Grin

The Carex aloe vera one is surprisingly nice. Not sticky either.

Molten brown rhubarb and rose!

L'occitane verveine. Nice and fresh, non-sticky and you can eat your butty afterwards without feeling sick.

Aesop Resurrection rinse-free hand wash. It’s pricey but a little goes a long way and it smells divine.

Couchto5ktowine · 14/01/2021 18:07

Agree on Aesop. Also take a look at Purdy & Figg (especially citrus): lovely smell, a spray rather than a gel and no sticky residue. It’s ace.

I wish I could get hold of that M&S one. The one they have (or had) on the doors before Christmas. It doesn't seem to be any of the ones they sell. Sad

Muddledupme · 14/01/2021 18:11

The body shop coconut is lovely

allmycats · 14/01/2021 18:16

I asked M and S if they sold the one they had at the door before Christmas and they said no.

Sniv · 14/01/2021 18:18

Less upmarket than a lot of these suggestions, but Superdrug has a range of 'So...? Sorry not sorry' spray hand sanitisers and the fake watermelon scent of the 'Clean Freak' one is mouthwatering.

There is a company called palm safe that do some really nice smells once the alcohol smell has gone. Their coconut one is lovely. I loved their Christmas ones jingle berries and candy cane.

They missed a trick there! DH used some and I thought I could smell after shave it was sooo nice.

This Works, it’s lovely ☺️

This one!

Fatface do a nice one!

cherrypie790 · 14/01/2021 18:28

I've got This Works, and it's gorgeous. Leaves your hands all soft, and it's a very natural oils smell.

H1978 · 14/01/2021 18:29

I recently got the sanctuary spa one, best one I’ve smelt and I’ve tried a few 😳

hilariousnamehere · 14/01/2021 18:30

Enliven - got it in homebase and it's cucumbery and non-sticky!

LateToTheParty · 14/01/2021 18:31

Mia Tui sell this one - full size and handbag size and it smells gorgeous

It a bit pricey (£16.50) but L'occitane's Verberna hand sanitizer smells lush

BigSkyLife · 14/01/2021 18:41

Yes, that M&S one was gorgeous.
I’ve treated myself to The White Company Seychelles one... it smells amazing!

QueenOfTheDoubleWide · 14/01/2021 18:44

Aesop is always lovely but I also got ESPA bergamot and jasmine no rinse hand cleanser for Christmas and that is very pleasant too

PickAChew · 14/01/2021 18:52

The M&S one is disgusting and gives me a splitting headache. I'd rather my hands smelt of nothing.

Findahouse21 · 14/01/2021 18:53

Body shop lemon one is lovely but the mango is even nicer. It so keen on the coconut
