I like the smell, I like the texture, and I like that it doesnt dry out my skin. I cant really describe the smell, but I did see one review describe it as "medicinal" which I disagree with. The texture is slimy because of the high glycerin content, but not in a gross way. I use it primarily on my body when Im in the shower, so I cant comment on it as a face wash.
Ill probably continue to alternate between using Pears and Dove beauty bars as body soap for the foreseeable future. Added bonus: Im Indian, and this is all anyone used in India for years and years(like, my grandma uses this stuff) so its kind of a pleasantly nostalgic product for me as well!
