W DRESSROOM Moisturizing Perfume Hand Cream 514 May Rose

W.DRESSROOM built its name on scent, and this perfume hand cream is essentially a fragrance in a hand cream format. No.514 May Rose opens with lemon, settles into a soft pink rose, and finishes on amber and woody notes, so it reads fresh rather than heavy or old-fashioned.

The texture is the other half of the appeal. It is a light cream that sinks in quickly rather than sitting on the surface, which matters if you are going straight back to a keyboard or a phone screen. Shea butter and argan oil do the conditioning work, with madecassoside and Ceramide NP alongside them.

A 50 ml tube is small enough to keep in a bag, a desk drawer or a coat pocket, which is how most people use a scented hand cream: several times a day, in short moments. As a korean hand cream it sits at the more perfume-forward end of the category, so pick it if you want the scent to be the point.

W.DRESSROOM is a Korean fragrance house founded by designer Choi Bum-Seok, best known for its Dress and Living clear perfumes, which are used on clothes and fabrics as much as on skin. The numbered scent system runs across the whole range, so a fragrance you like as a perfume usually exists as a hand cream, body lotion or diffuser too.

C&C Cosmetics carries W.DRESSROOM hand creams alongside other Korean fragrance and body care, with shipping across Canada.
