Byredo Vetyver Hand Wash
I alternate between the different scents of the Byredo Hand Wash, and the Vetyver is a really lovely scent. The fragrance is noticeable without being overpowering, it's a green, fresh, unisex scent, which I don't find too masculine. The product itself cleans hands well without being overly drying. Expensive but worth it to me especially, since a bottle lasts me a few months.

Not as Promised
I have purchased this soap from other retailers for many years. I received this and I immediately knew it was not right. Smelled old and expired. I believe another reviewer had similar experience. I returned immediately.

Best scent
All of the Byredo products are luxurious, this particular hand wash has the best scent that lingers once washed off. You only need to use a very small amount because it’s very thick and the bottle lasts for a very long time. I’ve also bought the hand lotion which is equally as beautiful as this so I would highly recommend both and will be purchasing again.

Nice
This is a really nice hand wash. Smells lovely and leaves your hands so soft. I normally buy Aesop but wanted to try something new.

The best scent
I love love love this hand wash the smell is amazing and lost for awhile after you’ve washed your hands. It’s not drying like some liquid soaps.. it is pricey but it’s luxurious and sometimes it’s worth treating yourself…
I would definitely buy this again.

Perfect Luxury Hand Soap
I've been wanting this soap for so long, after hearing so many great things about it. I love Ouai, Diptyque, Aesop etc and wanted to try Byredo's, specifically the Vetyver scent. Let me tell you this scent LINGERS on your hands for hours. I'm continuously smelling my hands because I'm so surprised how long it last. It smells good - more of a luxurious vibe. The pump of the soap is great where you can pump a lot at once or just a little bit (what I prefer to make it last). Also, the formula is smooth and lathers really nicely.
This might be my new favorite hand soap (next to Diptyque's). Definitely worth the splurge!
