Korres shower gel

23 replies

Hi. Had a mini korres Santorini vine shower gel and loved it!.
Going to treat myself to a full size bottle and would like to try a new scent.
Any recommendations?

Nope, it's Santorini vine all the way for me, plus the body cream. Can't get enough..... Mind you the fig one is ok as well, as is the basil and lemon

NomDePlumeReloaded · 04/07/2017 20:36

My favourites are the Japanese Rose, Santorini Vine and the Vanilla Cinnamon. Gorgeous. I find the Rose and the Santorini both last on the skin, the vanilla cinnamon not so much.

Fig. It's heavenly

FrowningFlamingo · 04/07/2017 20:53

Santorini is the best. The rose is lovely too but not quite as nice IMO.

SoftBlocks · 04/07/2017 21:01

Fig is lovely but my fave is basil and lemon. We are on santorini vine at the moment as DH got some for fathers' day.

Theyhaveallbeenused2 · 04/07/2017 21:06

Think I'll stick with the Santorini vine as It seems popular and I did enjoy it.. thanks.

I'm currently using basil and lemon but don't find it very strong smelling. Should I order some of this santorini vine?

FrowningFlamingo · 05/07/2017 06:40

Yes, lynette! It's gorgeous. Order me one while you're there ;)

LadySpratt · 05/07/2017 06:47

Santorini every time. I stock up when the supermarket has an offer. Got 3 for 2 recently in Waitrose.

SerendipityFelix · 05/07/2017 06:50

I love the Jasmine and ?Pear and Bergamot? ones.

What type of scent is the Santorini vine one?

aniceearlynight · 05/07/2017 07:47

They have the two-for-one packs on Ocado too. Love Korres and have just bought Santorini Vine mini for my holiday.

NomDePlumeReloaded · 05/07/2017 08:13

Santorini Vine smells like refresher sweets to me (the hard ones). Sort of fruity and fizzy but not sickly, serendipity

cottagecheesequeen · 05/07/2017 08:17

They're all nice BUT santorini vine is the best. Not tried the body cream but will get in to buying some today. X

Gutted. Bought a bottle of Santorini Vine off the back of this thread and don't get the fuss at all.

The scent is so subtle it's barely perceptible. Leaves absolutely zero fragrance on the skin after your shower and while I was hoping for something Mediterranean and sophisticated it just smells like a synthetically sweet cheap body wash from superdrug Confused.

If anyone has Amazon prime the fig is £6 ATM as one of the prime day deals.

Truckingalong · 11/07/2017 22:29

Terf - you're wrong!!!!! It smells like sun kissed skin on a hot night on a Greek island.

Judydreamsofhorses · 12/07/2017 00:48

I switch between Basil-Lemon, Santorini and Fig at this time of year. In winter I like Bergamot Pear and Vanilla Cinnamon. Tbh, I mainly love them because they don't give me thrush.

ImYourWomanJonSnow · 12/07/2017 03:15

Jasmine and fig are my favourite and for summer I love vanilla and freesia (sp) one.

misskelly · 12/07/2017 03:26

Terf, I completely agree. I just don't get Korres stuff at all, it's expensive considering the scent doesn't last and most of their scents are horrible. The new imperial leather foamy stuff is much nicer.

misskelly · 12/07/2017 03:29

Sorry op it's very rude of me to come on to your thread and slate something you like, but I just can believe that there are people out there who actually like Korres. Each to their own I suppose.

HollyBollyBooBoo · 12/07/2017 04:29

Ocado currently have Korres 2 x 250ml shower gel for £8

LynetteScavo · 14/07/2017 21:56

Well I ordered the santorini vine...DH thinks it's a bit odd to have shower gel delivered by post, but what does he know....it is indeed very lovely. It just doesn't smell strong enough IMO.
