What the gurus are saying

One guru loves the fragrance and finds it effective for cleansing with pleasant scent payoff, though notes the appeal is personal. However, dermatologists who weighed in flag that the heavy fragrance makes this drying, especially risky for anyone with eczema, atopic dermatitis, or already-sensitive skin, since the scent can strip natural oils further. That means those with dry or reactive skin may want to skip it in favor of fragrance-free options.

"I keep repurchasing it largely because of nostalgia and I used to use this back in secondary school. I think that it is so good. One thing I like about Irish Spring is the fresh fragrance that you get with it. It smells like heavenly in my opinion. It smells really good. And if you're someone who is looking for something to cleanse the body and also have a very nice fragrance linger afterwards, then consider Irish Spring."

"Irish Spring is a very drying Bar Soap, but it's on sale $9.49. Albeit, it does deodorize spaces. Well, it's kind of like an alternative to a candle, especially good in a closet to put a bar of Irish Spring."
