The scent seemed to be pretty mild in the tub, but goes on strong after applying. There is a strong vanilla smell and a hint of spice. Quite Yum!!!
Pros :
- Moisturizes really well.
- Priced reasonably.
- Absorbs really very well and keeps skin moisturized for a very long time.
- The fragrance lingers on for quite sometime.
Cons:
- People with sensitive noses might want to avoid this. Some may find the fragrance to be too strong. I like it a lot, but I know I'll get bored of the smell after a while.
- The tub-packaging.
- Limited-edition.
It's worth checking out, imo. At least the small tub of body butter. The body scrub seems delish but, I am not sure if I'll get it since I have a ton of other scrubs waiting to be finished.
Have you tried anything from The Body Shop's holiday collection? Spiced Vanilla anyone?
mmmm, spiced vanilla sounds like a perfect warm yummy scent for fall!!

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Natasha :) This is such a wonderful gift :) I am sure your friend would love it!
ReplyDeleteIf the "spice" is anything buy Cinnamon I'll love it Appu!
ReplyDeleteNot feeling the Cinnamon Devie ;) This leans more towards the sweeter side...more of vanilla, quite strong actually!
ReplyDeleteI always get the cranberry one during this time of the year... it's one of my faves! It's a shame they are only around this time of the year
ReplyDeleteI somehow felt that this year's cranberry was not as exotic smelling as last year's...maybe that's just me! Even I wish they were around for longer :)
ReplyDeleteyou've created a few neccesities in my life xDD

lol! glad I could help out in some way ;);)
ReplyDeleteI have, Spiced Vanilla smells wonderful. I just bought the lotion and lipbalm as well. I love all of it! I don't have to wear perfume since the scent of vanilla clings strongly onto my skin.
ReplyDelete@Anon - Glad you like it :) I haven;t tried the lip balm though. Thanks for the update :)
ReplyDeleteI got the vanilla body scrub at sale this time...din find the body butter but loving the scrub...used it just once tho!!it smells just too awesom!!!
ReplyDeleteOoh..I love TBS Body Scrubs! Glad you got to try something from this LE range :)
ReplyDeleteHi, I was gifted the Body shop spiced vanilla hand cream. I want to know if it can be substitutable for body butter, since I don't really need it for my hands...
ReplyDeleteHi Pearl,
ReplyDeleteI always switch my hand and body creams as long as they are not really thick and difficult to spread.I think it's fine as long as they're used only on the body and kept away from the face. Hope that helps! :)
Yeah it sure did ! I haven't opened this one yet ... so what u r saying is that if it is thick and diff to spread, then I shld keep it for hands... else i can use for body, rite ?
ReplyDeleteYep, that's what I would do since, hand creams are always formulated to be thick and they might leave a film sometimes!
ReplyDeleteOk.. I got ur point. Its not very thick, but kinda thick but it spreads evenly and easily.. so i guess i can extend its use to body too !
ReplyDeleteSure, you can :D
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
