I have to agree with the other reviewer. The fragrance of this product made me feel sick to my stomach. There is the cherry almond but also a very strong musk with a synthetic incense-y element. The only thing I could think this would be useful for is if you're trying to lose weight as it might prevent you from putting your hands near your mouth. Pretty packaging though.

First of all, the scent is way too strong, sickeningly so. It is almond OD, with no added depth, not so different from Jergens minus the fake cherry scent, which actually makes the super artificial almond semi-palatable, in retrospect. This artificial almond is overloaded with angelica, which just takes it to a whole new level of sweet-fake-artificial in your face "ALMOND HAND CREAM" scent that just screams... any perfume I was wearing at the time turns to nothing, forget the blending or subtlety. If you want TONS of almond, and I mean sillage as if you're wearing a lot of sprayed perfume, here it is.

It gives you that fancy hand cream, very high society kind of smell, without any depth. Also, the pump broke off after a few months, so I have to just sort of squeeze it out, that is, when I can stand to smell it. Can't use it too often though, or it actually dries out my hands and gives them allergic dermatitis. Awesome, glad I paid nearly 50 bucks for this review.
