I have been buying method hand soap for several years. Lately, the pumps have not been working. The quality has definitely gone downhill. I won’t recommend buying until they address this problem.

This soap has a mild sent. It’s not too strong or over powering. Most of all, it works for my kids sensitive skin.
Good when the pump actually works..

I buy these from time to time to use when we rent a vacation place. Unfortunately the pumps are surprisingly frequently broken/inoperable on receipt. If you buy any check the pumps work right away so you can make a claim if necessary. Other than that, I like the minimalist clear look of these, and the scent is fresh and not too strong.
My favorite hand soap!

I am so disappointed in this soap! My husband and I buy a different scent in this same soap and love it just fine. Due to them being out of our usual scent, we got this one instead. Since it’s the exact same product, you’d think they’d be exactly the same but the consistency of this one is SO thin and watery. It smells good but had to throw it away because it was squirting everywhere during use!

I LOVE this soap! I have very dry skin and this is the only soap that doesn’t make it worse. Plus the smell is AMAZING! I wish they made this in shampoo and conditioner!

Great for pregnant women! Im 5 months pregnant and needed a hand soap that wouldnt make my stomach turn or my skin itch. So far this soap has done me wonders! It has a Very very light scent that just smells like clean fresh air or soft clean laundry being hung to dry at a distance. It also doesnt dry out the skin like bath and body works foaming hand soap does. If your pregnant and sensitive to scents or chemicals I would highly reccomend this soap for you.
DON'T BUY if you are sensitive to EXCESSIVELY STRONG ODORS!

OMG, the STENCH!!! I suppose the product might not agree with chemical makeup & could have soured, but... It turned from a lovely scent to a CLINGING vomitous stench that would NOT GO AWAY after repeated rewashing, dousing with alcohol, using a disinfectant wipe, rewash... It's been over an hour & the putrid odor is still lingering. Next step will be bleach which despite the guaranteed migraine that always accompanies the use, will be MUCH preferable to this stuff!!!

Product has gotten much worse over the years. First bought it probably back in 2015. Smelled amazing like an expensive cologne. Now it has little smell. Originally you barely needed even a drop to wash your hands. now it is like water, and you need a full pump. overall the quality has declined dramatically and the price has increased. If it was just one or the other, it would be tolerable, but not both. I no longer buy Method products.

The clean and simple packaging is perfection however I cannot repurchase because I do not like the scent whatsoever. It's a mothball meets old sweet cloying perfume scent.

Curvy Girl - 2 years ago
I'd like to give 1 star, but Target.com isn't letting me give anything other 5 stars. I had to ask my roommate to not purchase this soap again. It has an awful fragrance that hangs around forever. Headache inducing, sickly sweet odor I can't stand from 20 ft away.
