I had heard good things about this and decided to buy a big bottle as a treat. I'm glad I did!
If it wasn't for the price I would give this full marks as it deserves it.
When you slather onto your skin it's a clear oil. As soon as water touches it is clouds up and fills the senses with the most delightful smell ever.
A nice tip is to rub it onto dry skin and leave to soak in for about 5 minutes before jumping into the shower for full effect.
A pleasure to use and worth every penny. However if you love it as much as me and want to use it for every shower the price can certainly be an issue.
