I love how highly scented the Exotic Fruits Bath and Shower Gel is, but I think I would have preferred the mint, as this one is almost sickeningly sweet.

Everytime I use this stuff, I break out into "Tutti Fruity!" :)
Upon arrival, EdenFantasys had taken care to place the Shunga Bath and Shower Gel in a plastic bag, which was tied tightly to prevent any mishaps with possible leakage.
The bottle did not leak at all, but I really appreciated the care that EdenFantasys took when packing up the order, just in case.
I ordered the Exotic Fruits, because the Mint was unavailable, but I really enjoy Shunga's products (at least, those I have tried thus far), so I wanted to check it out. The cost is a bit of a shock, but when I got the bottle I was surprised at how large it is. Definitely bigger/more product than your average body wash, a full 16 ounces.
I immediately opened up the bottle so I could smell! I'm a bit obsessed with scents. I have to smell everything when I'm out shopping and I'm trying to decide on a body wash (and don't get me started on laundry products! I could be in those aisles for hours!)... I was pleased that there was a safety seal.
To me, this smells like fruit punch (which one might expect, given the name of Exotic Fruits). The brightly-dark pink color, and the scent, remind me of a fruity drink, Hawaiian Punch perhaps. It's honestly a bit too sweet for my tastes.
And speaking of tastes, this bath and shower gel is actually flavored! I didn't realize that until after I'd purchased it, so it was a nice surprise (though it did make me a bit nervous to use on my lady bits, since it tastes sweet...I've stuck to only using this in the shower and following up in certain areas with my Sliquid Splash). I wouldn't eat this stuff with a spoon or anything, it definitely still tastes like soap, but it leaves a hint of sweetness on the skin which takes kissing and nibbling up a notch. My husband really like it.
I love the artwork depicted on Shunga's prodcuts. It's erotic and sensual, but tastefully so. I don't hesitate to leave this out in my bathroom, it blends right in with my other bath and body products.
Follow-up commentaryI still like it3 months after original review
I still like it, but it's still a bit too sweet for me so I only use it sparingly. It's going to last me forever at this point because the bottle is so big!
