    Too heavily scented!

    I’ve heard so many amazing things about this product so I decided to give it a try.

    The first thing I noticed was the scent and it was alright at first if you get a quick whiff of it (hints of almond and pistachio with a mix of B&BW;vanilla bean noel IMO), but after a while the scent became a little sickening and I felt nauseous. I tried to wash it off but it’s so heavily fragranced that the smell just lingers. If you’re into scents and fragrances, especially those that are quite strong you’ll definitely love this, but for me personally, it’s not my cup of tea.

    The texture of the cream is really nice though, its a whipped cream texture, thick and rich which glides on like butter. As for the benefit of tightening skin I haven’t noticed results, but to be fair I’ve only used it a couple times only as I’ve been put off by the scent.

    'Bum Bum' is actually pronounced 'Boom Boom'!

    I was excited to try this product given the excellent reviews and 'promises' of the efficacy of this cream, including the claims that it "helps visibly smooth and tighten the appearance of your skin," in addition to claims that it can "prevent environmental damage on your skin." They make a number of claims, however after trying it, I'm still not 'sold.' Their products are wonderfully scented and luxurious, but after trying these for some time, they did not produce any noticeable effects that were long-lasting. The cost is also quite $$$. Try at your own risk!

    Incredible smell. Not a game changing moisturizer

    This product smells as incredible as everyone says. A really warm, gourmand scent. As a moisturizer, I will say I don't find it does much. It absorbs quickly, but that's about it. My advice would be skip out on the cream as it's super expensive, and buy the body spray.

    Still smells good

    I smelled this in store last year and I thought it smelled so delicious that the Rep gave me a sample to try it was so moisturizing.
    Then this year I received this from sephora for my free birthday gift, but I feel like it's not as strong as when a smelled before and not enough moisture for me. Don't get me wrong it still smells delicious, I just probably wouldn't purchase it.
