A purifying scent to pop in your purse

I’ve been a fan of Fruits & Passion ever since my nose grazed the brand’s bubble bath when I was ten. However, when I saw this Purifying Waterless Hand Soap ($7, fruits-passion.com) images of soapy dry hands crept into my mind as I mentally processed the word combination of “waterless” and “hand soap.” Still, the tube promised an orange-cantaloup scent, so I was eager to try it. The “soap” is actually mostly alcohol, which is the first thing that hit my nose as I rubbed it into my hands. Luckily, that didn’t last long and all that was left was the intended fragrance. (It also comes in peach, berry, pear-peony and grapefruit-guava.) More pluses: my sticky hands horror turned out to be for nothing and the small tube makes it easy to carry around. I’m still faithfully yours F&P.
