E BK Avis 38

Switched my last bathroom product over EB with the Desert Bloom Cream and honestly it's as good than the Aesop version I was rationing. Love that's it's refillable too.

I've been refilling my Element Brooklyn dispensers for almost two years now and honestly the whole system just works for how I lives. Small apartment, limited storage, and I already have a whole thing going with my grocery bags and recycling so adding the pouches to my Terracycle drop wasn't even a second thought.

Did a side-by-side test with Mandarin Crush and actual Aesop Resurrection - the citrus opening on the Element version might fade slightly faster but we're talking marginal differences. Wild Pear is next on my list, curious how it holds up against Byredo Suede.

Perfect for our waiting room, patients actually comment on it now.

I was so excited to receive these as I have a beautiful candle holder to fill. After just half an hour it's melted everywhere and is nearly finished. A complete rip off - don't go near this as you will be very disappointed. Nothing like the burning time of a real candle and a real let down.

Total waste of money. Doesn’t smell anything like Aesop. It doesn’t smell like anything at all. Cheap ingredients and cheap plastic bottle. Rip off. Don’t waste your money.

Dont be fooled by the great marketing and social media they have - it comes NOTHING close to any of the Aesop hand soaps, either buy cheaper ones or spend more money as its nothing like it im afraid.

It's ok the only reason I'm giving 3 stars is because they let me return the products and offered a full refund but otherwise the products smell only just a little bit like the original, nothing exact, it's only a slight resemblence so it's not a good replica or replacement and it also dries out your skin

Doesn’t smell even remotely like Aesop like they claim. They also delete any negative comments from their instagram. Save your money and shop elsewhere!

I am sorry to give one star, but there are reasons: I recently purchased Desert Bloom Body soap, which should resemble Aesop Geranium Leaf. Not even close!
A fragment of foam got in to my eye, they must be using some harsh chemicals, my eye is still sore!

I use Aesop all the time so the idea of halving the cost by purchasing Dessert Bloom was an exciting one.
Unfortunately it’s been £25 literally down the drain. Not only does the smell not even come close to Aesop, it has a really cheap fragrance. It reminds me of service station hand wash.
Not wanting to waste money, I used it anyway and now I have come out in a very nasty rash.
Sadly I think this company is jumping on the dupe bandwagon but with no intention of trying to make a good product.
I’ve used Noted Aromas before and they do excellent dupe products. Sadly they don’t do Aesop though.

I loved the concept of bottle-free refills that have scents similar to famous brand products. Unfortunately, the quality of these items does not match that of the originals. The soaps tend to be too watery, and some only vaguely resemble the branded products. The selection that is advertised versus what is available online in the UK is disappointing; many items are sold out, and it seems like these products are rarely in stock. While the soaps work okay as hand washes, I found them too harsh for use as body washes, which left my skin feeling dry.

I wanted to like this - I dig the packaging and the idea is super neat because Aesop products are eye wateringly pricey but alas, the Desert Bloom, which I spent £50 on, and which touts itself as an Aesop like for like is literally nothing like Aesop - watery, less unctuous, and with a kind of nothing scent. Disappointed.

yes it does smell like my usual favourite australian brand of body soap. But the smell was very watered down and did not fill the bathroom as my usual. There was a lot of foam and definate dry skin after I got out of the shower.
You go cheaper and you get cheaper.... worth the money, yes! But I will reorder my more expensive, more luxury wash when is is done

I have purchased both a hand wash and hand moisturiser! Wow! The smell is exquisite!

I highly recommend this product! Great value for money and the customer service is to a high standard! I will be buying from here forever more.

Buyer beware - Aesop hand soap copy is not even close to the original. This is not say is bad, but in no world am I mistaking them for each other.

I did also buy the Kiso hand soap and the pear hand soap and I can say all three are pleasant and nice to use, but I can't speak to the comparison to the other brand name equivalents.

Hand cream is oily and does not even smell great, let alone close to the original Aesop soap. A LOT of false advertisements on the website (£19 on the listing but when you check out it's £24), and on socials claiming it's a dupe. It's a passable hand cream but not worth £24, save your money and buy the real thing.

The ads are total BS. I ordered the Aesop style soap and moisturizer. There is no comparison it doesn’t smell anything like the original whatsoever. After seeing the ads with people saying wow, smells just like the original I see they were clearly paid to say that. Very disappointing and a total waste of money

The company delivers all the promises Seep makes with their plant-based kitchen sponge, that Seep actually failed to deliver. It's a solid, long lasting sponge. We've been using the first one for months. Brilliant! It also feels awesome when you cut it up and put it into the composte. We'll definitely buy it again.

Got baited by Instagram ad, as I'm sure many have, and bought Mandarin Crush hand soap (Aesop Resurrection dupe) and Desert Bloom body soap (Aesop Geranium Leaf dupe).

They are passable soaps but far from the respective original in terms of scent, texture/feel and persistence - they smell different (and not in a good way), are far more watery and the scent lingers for significantly less than the original Aesop products.

Yes, they are much cheaper than Aesop but I don't think they are worth what they cost - you can definitely get better smelling/feeling soaps for less (e.g. Sukin).

I would rate them 3 stars on their own merit based on price but am deducting a star because their whole selling point / marketing is as dupe to expensive brands and, in that regard, they are not even close, based on the two samples I purchased. Will not be buying again.
