I received a tube of this because a coworker purchased it and the scent of it gave her a migraine every time she tried to use it. I will agree this hand cream is strongly scented but it doesn't give me a headache, thankfully. Every time I use this hand creme at work, someone in the office makes a comment about the smell. It smells good but it's just too strongly scented. I love the silky feeling of this cream as it penetrates into the dry skin on my hands. It leaves my hands feeling soft and smooth but not greasy. The tube that I was gifted is about gone--I've squeezed the heck out of it. I'll even cut it open soon so that I get every little bit of this luscious cream out of the tube--it's that good. However, $10 is a bit too pricey for a 2.5 fl. oz. tube of hand cream. I doubt that I will be buying this in the future but I'd use it if someone gave it to me. Botton line: Nice scent but strong, provides good moisturization without feeling greasy and long lasting smoothing characteristics but it's too expensive for my budget.

I loathe fake sweet smells (vanilla, cupcake, sugar cookie, birthday cake). I prefer natural, earthy scents like patchouli, clove, sandlewood, and sage. However, I actually like this hand cream. It really smells like those sugar cookie candles (gag), but it tends not to completely overpower me when I apply it. I much prefer the sister cream "Shea Cashmere & Silk" because the fragrance isn't so nauseating.
This line has very little long term moisturizing effects that I can see, and I've been using this for years. I use it because I like the smooth, silky feeling I get within moments of rubbing it in. It absorbs very quickly with no residual. continued >>

I bought this yesterday and will be exchanging it today.


It smelled ok in the store but now it's very overpowering. And someone else said it before but I'll reiterate - it softens your hands but it doesn't moisturize. My cuticles are flaking within seconds of rubbing it in and my hands still feel dry. It's like you're just coating them with a dry, velvety texture. This also leaves a light shimmer on your hands and nails which I don't like at all.


I had great results with L'occtiane hand cream but didn't care for the smell or price but it's the only thing I can find that actually keeps my cuticles and hands moisturized. Guess I'll go back to that.

The only hand cream I use. Absorbs very quickly, and is not greasy at all. Watch out for deals, and you can get 2 if not 3 for the price of 1...... And then you get backups :) Oh and smell......amazing!

I love this product. It is so soft. My aunt buys it for me every Christmas and my hands are so soft and smells good. It has no long term affect but it still feels good on my hands

Gag! This stuff smells way too sugary sweet. I love sweet and warm scents, but this was overload. I also think it's overpriced. This scent really lingers on your hands, which I didn't like, from this scent particularly. I had to scrub my hands to get it off. I may as well have sprayed perfume on my hands, that is how defined the smell was. I couldn't even tell if it was soft and moisturizing on my skin because the scent overwhelmed me and caused me to forget about all of it's other qualities (if there were any).

I love this! It goes on so smoothly and moisturizing. It goes on sale all the time and it's so inexpensive. I usually buy the small sizes and keep in my purse. I like the smell but my husband thinks it stinks. Oh well I am the one using it, not him...LOL. Love love!

This is one of the best hand creams I've tried. Doesn't make my hands feel oily/greasy afterward at all. It has a nice smell to it (I cannot figure out what it reminds me of though). I did get this during a sale, so it was only $5 instead of 10, but full price is a bit much for a small container. I also wish the cap was attached instead of the twist off because it's a little hard to screw back on once you've put the product on. I keep this next to my bed for when my hands get dry at night.

I love this hand cream! It has a warm comforting scent, absorbs nicely without feeling greasy, and makes your skin so soft and smooth. At $10 I do wish it was a bit cheaper though.

OK, this stuff is the stuff if you know what I mean, but it's WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!! I absolutely love everything about it except the price. That's why I'm afraid it won't be around too long because people won't pay $10 for a small bottle you can put in your purse! Other than that, it feels like silk on your hands (and feet for me) Plus I LOVE the way it smells as well. The smell is probably not for everyone and may be a little strong, but I love it. I think it smells like frosting on a cake or something. So, this is great--if you can get someone to buy it for you as a gift! (lol)
