★★★★★
This a staple in my routine and very multifunctional! I use on my skin and hair, you can also easily mix it with a facial oil or moisturizer, even a body lotion. It has Phaedra Botanicals signature scent which you can’t find anywhere else! I can’t live without Eratō’s [Essence]!

★★★★★
Before trying this one, I used Ex Prunis for a long time, but this essence is fantastic for dry skin. My skin drinks it up instantly and the smell is unforgettable. It is my new absolute favorite!

I absolutely love Eratō’s Essence. I have established a ritual when I leave the essence on the heating to warm up and treat myself to some proper skin treatment. The scent is one in a million and my skin becomes so soft with it. Absolute love!

This is the one product that goes everywhere with me, it’s perfectly adequate as a stand alone moisturiser but becomes next level skin care when paired with the Transcendent lotion.

I absolutely love this one. I use a small amount daily before sleep and wake up with beautiful hydrated and soft skin—big fan.

I think Phaedra Botanicals is a master creator of wonderfully smelling products without the use of essential oils. That is what I love about their products.

This one is truly extraordinary. This essence tends to crystalize, but I actually love the tiny bits of mango melting in the palm of my hand.

It is a very nourishing product.

Eratō’s Essence is my favorite product from Phaedra Botanicals. I have been using it for more than six months now. It is so nutritious to my skin, body, and hair. I use it all over, with the 50ml version lasting me about 6-8 weeks. I literally cannot say enough good things about it. It nourishes, hydrates profoundly, and protects the skin against cold weather better than anything else I have ever tried without making me look greasy. And the smell is simply amazing without the use of essential oils. Perfect product! I recommend it.

I always switch to Eratō’s Essence in winter. I live in Colorado, and my skin can get extremely dry during winter with minor eczema. This essence helps me prevent both.

★★★★★

Amazing. It delivers perfect hydration. I use it every night and morning on my face and body. When applied to damp skin, a tiny amount is absolutely sufficient. I used to have extremely dry skin on my body and around my lips, but Erato’s Essence fixed it. Plus, it smells divine!

★★★★★

Toller Duft und angenehm auf der Haut, da macht die Abendroutine noch mehr Spaß. Auch als ‘Sensibelchen’ vertrage ich die Essence sehr gut.

Karmen B. | Germany | 8/2/21 Skin type: Dry Verified buyer ✓

★★★★★

Ich mag das Serum sehr. Der Duft ist wirklich sehr lecker (Marzipan, leicht fruchtig-sÌß). Ich nutze es morgens nach einem Toner. Es zieht schnell ein und meine leicht trockene Haut wird gut gepflegt.

Sina W. | Germany | 22/1/21 Skin type: Mostly very dry, with some hormonal breakouts Verified buyer ✓

★★★★★

It is amazing! Very nourishing, but still lightweight on the skin. Love the fruity scent of it and that it doesn’t contain any essential oils. I sometimes layer it with a few extra drops of Ex Prunis applied before, when my skin is feeling very dry – magic 🙂

Delphine D. | Belgium | 8/2/21 Skin type: Mixed, sensitive, dehydrated Verified buyer ✓

★★★★★

My skin was not in the best shape: pimples from the mask (used during Covid epidemic), redness and dehydration from perimenopause, very dry skin, so I waited for Erato’s like a miracle because my bottle of EX-PRUNIS was empty. I try some other products but with no result. It’s been around 2 weeks now that I use Erato’s, my skin is back to normal, love the texture, the smell, the application is one happy moment and with the Covid, every little pleasure counts. So I wait with great impatience for the new batch. My routine will be Erato’s in the morning and Ex-Prunis at night.

I love the Eratō’s Multipurpose Essence. I am Ex Prūnīs user for a very long time, but this rich, beautiful texture with a unique scent is my absolute new favorite. It is so rich, smells fantastic, and my skin is just so balanced and healthy since I started using it. I am in love with this most recent addition! Bravo!

★★★★★

Amazing! I put it every day on my dry skin; it nourishes my skin perfectly; you can feel that it was well sectioned, the very good quality of the multipurpose is sensational, the scent is perfect.

Jessica S. | Germany | 13/4/21 Skin type: Combination Verified buyer ✓

★★★★★

I really love this Essence, the smell is extraordinary and the skin feels protected. I love the texture and I use it daily in my routine.

Silke | Germany | 6/4/21 Skin type: Unspecified Verified buyer ✓

★★★★★

I have tried many facial oils, so I wasn’t expecting to be as blown away as I am with this oil. Although it’s ‘simple’ compared to other ingredient lists, don’t be fooled! This one works like a charm. The texture is very silky, and the smell is gorgeous (like almonds). It never causes any irritation. I can use it on its own or how I prefer it – mixed with a hydration serum. I also use it during the day if my skin feels dryer, and I have never had such soft skin as with this facial oil – big love!

I have been using Ex Prūnīs for about one and a half years now, applying it every night, and this is an excellent addition to it. It is slightly heavier, and the skin feels protected with this essence even during colder months. Most recently, I tried their mask as well and used the essence after washing it off. I can honestly say that I love all Phaedra Botanicals’ products and definitely would recommend them to those who haven’t tried them yet.
