Palmolive Orchidea

Palmolive Orchidea is a simple floral body-wash product, aimed at people who want an orchid-scented shower gel without a lot of fuss. By our assessment, the flower note is the main draw, and that is where it does its best work: it gives a clean, familiar floral wash rather than anything complicated. The downside is predictable for this category, because floral body washes can feel generic once the scent settles and the formula is judged on daily use. In practice it is the kind of thing that disappears into the routine, which is either exactly right or a little boring depending on taste. Compared with richer shower creams, it sits on the lighter, more straightforward side. Palmolive Orchidea is for a user who wants a basic floral wash and does not need the shower to feel like a fragrance experiment.
