Love this thread. Now I really want the Camu Camu scent.

Understandable. I used to be big on the whole "i'm not going to bath in my own dirt and gunk" lol

Then again, I am a relatively clean person and usually take my bath for relaxation purposes. So I'll take my bath, then shower after to rinse off and wash my hair/body etc.

I just tried the Mangosteen Bath Milk. It is quite interesting. In the container it is fairly strong, but nothing like how I described in my Goji Berry bath milk review. It smells very close to the body polish in Mangosteen, but without that soapy smell. On top of that, it has a hint of creaminess to it because of the milk powder. The scent fills the bathroom and smells the same. Soaking in the tub with the bath milk it is very light on the mangosteen and smells more like a creaminess with a subtle mangosteen. I love it, quite relaxing.

I think I need to update all my thoughts on the scents and products after I have used them all and reviewed them.

I have both the pomegranate body wash and lotion and they just smell floral and perfumey to me. No hint of tartness or fruit at all. I was really surprised and a bit disappointed. =/

Strange. I haven't used either of those in the pomegranate so it's hard for me to put my take on it. However the more I smell the pomegranate the more I pick up on an undertone of green/plant/floral mix. To me it's like and mostly covered up.

Then again, the Goji Berry to me smells super-floral and some others said it smelt like a berry smoothie. Noses/brains are weird.

I dunno... I felt the same way too but then I tried the body butter. It smells like playdough and I'm not even joking. It's really light though. It doesn't bother me but I don't want to pick that scent out again. I guess the only way to really know what a scent smells like is to try it yourself because it seems like everyone has their own opinions and it smells different to everybody! That's what makes it tough for me to choose something.

Oh wow - I feel bad about that. Everyone that I've had smell it picks up on the berry / tartness...but I'm not a big fan of the body wash because the soapy smell interferes with the scent.

I'm liking me mangosteen polish a lot more. Like a sugared grapefruit with a bit of coffee (because of the ground beans).

I had a friend smell my pomegranate stuff and she thought it smelled citrus-y so I guess that's more like what it should be.

I do understand - I really do. I'm not a big fan of flowery fragrances so I am a bit nervous to try the blue lotus.
