Smell off-putting to some

What the gurus are saying

The scent is the standout divider here: some pick up rotting fruit while others detect pleasant fruity notes, so fragrance sensitivity absolutely matters before committing to purchase. Despite that split, the gentle formula and the brightening ingredients like tomato and strawberry earn solid praise for their mild, effective cleansing action overall. Those unbothered by scent variation will find it worthwhile.

"I bought the Indie Lee Brightening Cleanser a long time ago and I hated it, I could not get past the smell. I still really do not like the smell of it. As a cleanser it's actually really nice, super gentle, but I wish I smelled the nice fruit smell other people say they smell, because I smell rotting fruit."

"If you are looking for a product that utilizes the benefits of tomato, I would recommend the Indie Lee Brightening Cleanser. It has ingredients like tomato, strawberry, and I believe wheat as well, good ingredients to help with hyperpigmentation in the skin, but in a really gentle cleanser formula."
