Aesop Coriander Seed Body Cleanser 500 mL — Low-Foaming Hydrating Shower Gel

Aesop Coriander Seed Body Cleanser is a low-foaming, aromatic shower gel that gently cleanses and invigorates skin with coriander, black pepper and patchouli.

This 500 mL body cleanser pairs a warm, spicy fragrance with a mild, hydrating formulation designed for everyday use. The low-foaming gel removes surface impurities without stripping, leaving skin feeling stimulated and comforted rather than tight or overly dry. Bottled in Aesop’s recycled-plastic container, it reflects the brand’s sustainable approach while delivering a distinct scent profile that blends herbal and spicy notes.

What does the cleanser smell like and how will it affect your shower routine?

The scent is an assertive, warming mix of coriander seed and black pepper, rounded by earthy patchouli. It creates a sensory experience that can make an ordinary shower feel more intentional and enlivening. Because it foams lightly, the fragrance is noticeable without overwhelming small spaces.

• Primary aroma: spicy-citrus coriander with peppery warmth
• Base notes: earthy, resinous patchouli for depth
• Low-foam formula means less suds and a quicker rinse
• Great for those who prefer aromatic, non-cloying shower gels

How does the formula clean and hydrate without heavy foaming?

The cleanser uses mild surfactants that lift oil and dirt while preserving surface moisture. Its composition focuses on gentle cleansing rather than aggressive lather, reducing the risk of post-shower tightness. The result is skin that feels refreshed, subtly conditioned, and pleasantly scented.

• Low-foaming surfactants for efficient, gentle cleansing
• Formulated to avoid stripping natural oils
• Leaves skin feeling clean and slightly nourished
• Suitable for daily use on body skin

Which ingredients stand out and why are they included?

Coriander seed and black pepper essential oils are the signature aromatic components, chosen for fragrance and sensory impact rather than therapeutic claims. Patchouli provides grounding, long-lasting base notes. Aesop prioritises ingredients with safety and sustainability records and the formula is vegan and free from parabens and animal testing.

• Coriander seed: bright, warming aromatic note
• Black pepper: spicy top note adding clarity and warmth
• Patchouli: earthy base for scent longevity and balance
• Vegan, paraben-free, cruelty-free formulation and recycled packaging
