Soap and Glory have released a new mini-collection themed around a fruity, cheeky new scent - and it's called Orangeasm. I'm not quite sure why Soap and Glory have decided that notes of green mandarin, Sicilian lemon and sweet orange peel are comparable to orgasms, but hey, this is Soap and Glory, and they can always be relied upon for a bit of irreverent fun.
Anyway, the products in the range include a body wash, body butter, and super tonic, which is a light fragrance mist. I've been using the body wash and super tonic for the past couple of weeks, and I've been impressed by the body wash - it foams up plentifully but doesn't feel drying at all on the skin, thanks in part to the use of Sodium Trideceth Sulfate, a more gentle cleansing agent than the traditional SLS included in most body washes. The scent is glorious - bright, zesty and bursting with citrus, it's very, very energising indeed. Not bad for just £6.50 for a giant 500ml bottle.
I've been less impressed by the Super Tonic - I like my fragrance to stay on my skin for as long as possible, and the tonic seems to fade within the hour. The scent is simple, but nice enough if you like citrus - it's very orangey, and I can't really detect many other notes in the mix. If you love the scent and are prepared to reapply every couple of hours, Super Tonic may work for you, but it's just too simplistic and fades too fast for me. At least it doesn't break the bank at £12 for 100ml.
