When I have my morning shower and squeeze this shower gel on to my puff, I'm transported to an invigorating tropical waterfall, surrounded by trees of fruit and coconut. I've never experienced a coconut fragrance that was so refreshing and clean.

I follow my shower with the body creme and it leaves my skin delightfully scented all day--even without the body spray, which I keep in my purse in case of sweaty bike rides.

I will cry when they discontinue this one.

This is perfect for a vacation on the Jamaican North Coast. Very sweet and sexy scent. One whiff and I'm in paradise, walking on a white, warm sandy beach, sipping on a tropical drink. Truly exotic. However, if you're not a lover of very sweet scents this might not be for you.

Ouuu if there was "summer in a bottle" this would be it. I really love anything coconut scented all year long so i picked up 2 of these lotions when they had a sale. It's a very fruity coconut scent. Not as warm and creamy as some others I've smelled (Body Shop Coconut Body Butter for example). It apparently has musk in it but I don't smell that at all. I smell more of a tropical fruit like mango with a bit of grape mixed in with coconut.
This is wonderful layered with the body spray. As for moisturizing, it moisturizes quite well. I prefer it more in the summer as I find it's not something meant for really dry skin. It may work more for someone with a normal-dry skin type. It's not greasy at all and it will linger on your skin for hours. It absorbs really well on the skin also.
It reminds me of sun soaked days, laying on the beach, sipping girly drinks and having fun. Perfect as a mid winter pick me up, too!

I didn't like this one at all on me. I just got a couple of the trial sizes when this first came out and it smelled nice in the bottle but when I put it on it was way too strong and I couldn't stand it so I tried to wash it off. First you smell the coconut, which is nice, but then it starts to smell almost floral and I don't like floral scents so this was not for me.

I wish this wasn't limited edition! It's the most awesome sugary sweet coconut scent. I purchased the lotion when it first came out, and I loved it so much that I stocked up at the semi annual sale. It was 75 percent off, so I got all the products in this fabulous beachy scent. The cream is the most moisturizing on me. The scent lingers for hours.

I really liked this scent. It's very summery and tropical, and I love coconut. It works well as a moisturizer, but not the best ever. I would give it 4 stars, but I had it on at work one day and a customer asked if I was wearing sunscreen because of the smell.....wasn't supper happy about that so it kind of turned me off of the scent. Still like it a lot, but wouldn't buy it again, I don't want my lotion to remind people of sunscreen.

I'm not normally a B&BW fan, but I had to exchange something that I got as a present, so I got this instead.

I was attracted by the lagoon-blue packaging, I admit. The smell of the body creme is a light coconut, tinged with just enough lychee so that its not too one dimensional, with just a slight hint of maybe, white musk to keep the whole thing from turning into a cocktail.

Its harmless enough and light enough that to smell clean, yet inviting, refreshing. Its got a faint B&BW sort of aura, so one lippie off. continued >>
