Aesop Citrus Melange Body Cleanser — 500 mL low-foaming shower gel with jasmine & citrus, vegan, recycled-plastic bottle

Aesop Citrus Melange Body Cleanser is a low-foaming shower gel that gently cleanses while uplifting skin and senses with a jasmine-accented citrus essential oil blend.

Designed to remove impurities without stripping, this formula balances gentle surfactants with a botanical citrus trio—petitgrain, lemon rind and grapefruit rind—and touches of jasmine to deliver a fresh, vivifying scent. Packaged in Aesop’s recycled-plastic bottle and formulated vegan and paraben-free, the cleanser suits daily use and pairs well with other Aesop bodycare routines.

How will this cleanser feel on my skin?

The low-foaming texture rinses clean and leaves skin feeling refreshed rather than tight. Lightweight botanical extracts help preserve moisture balance while the surfactants cleanse effectively.

• Low-foaming gel that rinses without residue
• Leaves skin feeling clean and refreshed, not dry
• Botanical extracts support skin comfort after washing

What does it smell like and how strong is the fragrance?

The scent profile centers on citrus brightness—lemon and grapefruit rind—with green petitgrain notes and a soft jasmine finish for subtle floral warmth. Fragrance is designed to be noticeable but not overpowering, suitable for daily showers.

• Top notes: grapefruit and lemon rind for fresh citrus
• Mid notes: petitgrain for an aromatic green depth
• Base accents: jasmine adds a gentle floral roundness

What are the key ingredients and sustainability credentials?
