After having trialed this over the week I can say that this is definitely a family favourite now, and I will be looking out for it at the supermarket. The body wash comes in a generously sized bottle which will last a family a fair while. It's also got a pump application which makes it easy for everyone to use and makes it hygienic. The Manuka Sensitive body wash comes out as a clear liquid and quickly lathers up to a nice, gentle foam. It has a sweet and luxurious smelling body wash and makes shower time an experience. I love that it's made in NZ and doesn't contain anything nasty. Ideal for kids and something that they can use on themselves at shower or bath time.

Reviews
This is a lovely body wash with an easy pump that lets you get just the right amount of clear gel from the pretty brown bottle. I think the colouring is well done to have the brand in gold to stand out and the suttle white writting tells more with the bold colour on the bottom if your in a hurry to pick.
I wouldn't have picked it by the name or by the smell either but it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I'm normally not a fan of anything floral it puts me off.
The scent wasn't to over whelming and didn't hang around to long either. It made my skin feel soft and bubbled up well.
Looking forward to trying the other ones when this runs out
Tips: A little goes a long way
I was lucky enough to get onto a Beauty Review trial team, and was sent a bottle of Essano Adore Body Wash with Jasmine & Fig.
It's a full sized, generous 445ml bottle with a pump applicator that makes it really easy to dispense the perfect amount of body wash onto a shower pouf, without wasting any product, although the dark brown plastic bottle does make it a little bit hard to see how much product is left if the bottle, unless you hold it up to a window or light.
The smell of Adore body wash is not what I was expecting. I did expect Jasmine & Fig, so I was thinking that it would be quite a sweetly scented body wash with maybe the heady undertones of Jasmine that you tend to smell on a hot summer's night, but boy, was I wrong! I find the scent of this to be quite masculine, it has a very musky, almost smokey smell that isn't bad, it just took a little while to get used to, as it was completely opposite to what I expected.
I find that the scent of Essano Adore Body Wash tends to linger on my skin for hours after rinsing it off and I even get little whiffs of it the next morning. I find that a few pumps onto my shower pouf provides a nice lather, but I wouldn't describe the lather as rich or luxurious, it does foam nicely and is very gentle on my skin.
The best thing about this body wash is that it's free from parabens, sulphates, silicones, phthalates, ethoxylates, PEGs, PPGs, GMOs, mineral oils, and animal testing. So, there's no nasty stuff that goes into Essano's body washes. It's also contains certified organic Rosehip Oil, along with active mountain botanicals, which are then infused with the scent of Jasmine & Fig.
I doubt that I'd buy a bottle of Adore Body Wash with Jasmine & Fig, purely because the scent wasn't what I was expecting, but I am keen to try "Bliss" with Frangipani & Paw Paw, once I run out of this one, just to see what that scent is like.
Tips: Use it on a shower pouf to get a nice lather.
Update - 24/05/2017: I've been using this body wash for a week and now the pump has stopped working properly. It's so frustrating! I can still get the body wash out the bottle, as the pump does depress, the problem is that it then gets stuck and won't come up again. I have to try juggling the bottle in one hand, shower pouf in the other, and try to manually pull up the pump while dispensing product. Not easy when I'm standing in a shower.
I've had to take points off my inital Review for this, as this is not the first time an Essano product has had a faulty pump. I bought their gentle foaming face wash and had a faulty pump in that bottle, too.
I doubt I'll be purchasing a bottle of their "Bliss" variant, as it seems like there is definitely a problem with Essano's pump bottle packaging.
Second update - 15/06/2017: After contacting Essano's marketing team about their faulty packaging, Essano have sent me a replacement bottle of the "Adore" Body Wash and asked me to send the faulty bottle back to them, so that they can test the packaging and try to find out what the problem is. Essano paid for and arranged courier pick-up of the faulty bottle, all I had to do was sit around waiting for the courier to arrive. Thanks for the replacement body wash, Essano, and for being willing to take back and test the faulty product to find a solution. It shows that customer feedback is valued and is important to you.
