Details & care

What it is: Containing a concentrated blend of botanicals and emollient ingredients, including sweet almond oil and macadamia nut oil, this readily absorbed balm effectively moisturizes the hands and cuticles to leave them feeling soft and supple.

What it does: The nongreasy after-feel makes it ideal for frequent use on dry or parched skin. It's the brand's first ever product for the skin: a hydrating hand cream with an evocative citrus aroma. Skin is left nourished, supple and with a greaseless finish.

Style: Woody, herbaceous, citrus.

How to use: Apply to clean hands as often as desired, paying close attention to cuticles. Also suitable for allover body use.

Beautiful product!

This is by far the most amazing hand balm I've ever tried! I am in love! I've gotten multiple compliments from friends, and strangers on how lovely it smells. The best way I could describe it is that it smells like a spa. This balm is not too thick or greasy. It will leave you with angel soft hands. I just wish Nordstrom would carry it permanently. I am in love with these products.

Not impressive

I was looking forward for this hand cream to a arrive as an indulgent treat. It was far from it! The scent is a little funky, lasts only few seconds then dissipates. This hand cream is not nourishing or moisturizing or creamy. It has no purpose at all. Overpriced and a big disappointment! Jergen's would work better.

Get this for the smell, not the lotion function.

This lotion does not absorb into my hands. Many times I have applied it, went about the house doing other things for up to 45 minutes, then washed my hands, and the lotion comes right back off in the sink. At this high price point, it’s disappointing that the lotion material doesn’t actually do its stated job of moisturizing. However, I don’t regret the purchase overall because it smells so stinkin’ good.

pretty esthetic, bad quality/smell

The reviews on this hand cream were mostly good and the esthetic of it was beautiful but the smell isn’t a comforting smell. Sent is very strong like rosemary and cedre de l’atlas. Doesn’t keep my hand moisturized for longer then a few min and then they go back to being even more dry then before. For the price point I expected better. I recommend Fresh Seaberry hand cream because the quality and results are a thousand times better

hand cream convert

Normally I hate the feeling of creams and lotions on my hands but this stuff feels like heaven! It's lightweight and sinks in perfectly leaving my hands soft and conditioned. This is my favorite scent for the hand creams and is the one I keep in my bag. The other one is on my bedside table and I use it every night before bed. Thanks to this stuff, my normally scaly hands are soft and perfectly hydrated.

Aromatic bliss and nice care

The energizing vetiver smell gives me sense of abundance and wellness. And my palm skin and cuticles are soft a protected from dryness. This is so far my favorite hand cream!

Save your money overrated

I bought it because of all those positive reviews. Used half of it didn’t impress me at all and it seems like overrated. The smell is very strong it feels like not making your hand moisturized. Just a layer of something after you washed your hand that layer are gone. you can buy any hand cream from CVS do better job than this one and you pay less. But the most annoying part is the packaging. The caps are so small very single time after i used trying to put the cap back on it always fall! Also the cap split in half. I don’t know how it happened? Because of that makes my hand cream all dry out! Worst hand cream i have ever used.

Pricey but worth it!

I fell in love with this hand balm when I first tried it, years ago. I have been using it ever since. It leaves my hands soft and nourished without a greasy feel. I've even gifted to friends who have, like me, become addicted to this hand cream. I use it every night before going to bed and throughout the day as needed after washing my hands. WARNING: Don't buy unless you want soft, velvety moisturized young looking hands!

Was hoping for better

I like this brand and the design of their products. Because of the ingredients listed, I thought this would have more of a scent that smelled spa-like and more aromatic. It's okay, but to me it's not amazing. The cream itself works very well, but I love things that smell fabulous and to me this wasn't one of them. Sorry Aesop. I hope to try different products in the future!

A Cult Favorite That Did Not Convert Me

I truly do not understand the hype around Aesop's Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm. While I know it has a loyal following, it simply did not work for me. The scent came across as medicinal, and unfortunately not in a pleasant or comforting way. I found myself reaching for other hand creams instead. In terms of performance, I much prefer the L'Occitane hand creams. They feel more effective at moisturizing the skin and leave my hands feeling softer for longer. Over time, I have also noticed they do a better job of improving my skin's overall texture and condition. While I can appreciate the aesthetic and popularity of this product, it was not something I would repurchase. There are other hand creams on the market that perform better and offer a more enjoyable user experience.

bad smell, no moisture

I'm a little confused. Is this really hand cream? Or this is a mosquito repellent. The smell is just terrible, no moisturizing. I had to wash off the cream because it stank and caused itching. This is the first time I have had such a reaction, this cream is not worth the money, it’s just a brand.
