Feminine Washes

I have a question about the feminine washes that are coming out right now.

I had seen a commercial for the Summer's Eve one awhile ago [link to website] and a commercial for a Vagisil one as well today [link to website].

Just wondering if anyone has tried any of these products and if they really worked. I would like to get one and probably will test them out but I'm curious if anyone has tried them.

**replies about not needing to change our scent, etc are unnecessary :) I personally don't enjoy my scent and would like to lessen it** -without lifestyle changes

All and any feedback is appreciated. Thank you!

Well, I will probably be pounced on, but... Frankly I like to suds-up my vulva, I feel cleaner afterwards, and I like feeling clean. I've used the Summer's Eve feminine wash (I opted for the sensitive skin version just in case), and had no problems with it at all. No itching, no burning, no infections. I only suds-up my mons, labia majora, and the area between my majora and minora (I have rather long minora, so that might not work for everybody). I leave everything inside the minora alone.

Oh, and I didn't notice an increase in smell, either. I didn't notice if it actually decreased my au du vagina, but that wasn't really why I used Summer's Eve anyway, so I didn't pay attention.

Maybe be a stupid question, but I was just wondering if it's sented & if so, what kind of sents? I just imagine most of these things having those fun floral & sents & other things that just don't smell good at all. That why I stick with dove soap usually.

Hmm...ya know, I honestly don't remember! Money's been tight, so I haven't used Summer's Eve in a while, I just use the bubbles from my shea/cocoa butter shower gel. If there was any scent, it was very subtle and mild -- I would have remembered if it was an obnoxious scent.
