    It had a nice smell...It looks like I'm one of a few who think it did smell like gingerbread. I liked the texture--but you do have to use the scrub on a wet body.

    Once I got this to work for me I got great results. It smooths my skin without oily residue and doesn't slick the sides of the tub either. But I had to experiment to make it easier to use. The...

    As a lover of the Amazing Grace Salt scrub, I was really eager to try The Gingerbread Man. However, this particular scrub failed to "Wow" me on several points. The Gingerbread Man logo on the tub...

    You know when models have shiny limbs? Well I've got them now thanks to this scrub! Noone was more stunned than me. I'm a bit of a scrub fan and I have NEVER had such a dramatic result! I stand...

    I read all the glowing reviews at drugstore.com and here at MUA and just HAD to try this 'supposedly' wonderful product. Yes, the jar is BIG. BUT, it was SO dry and grainy that the stuff was VERY...

    The smell is a citrusy ginger smell which I didn't like the smell that much at first and didn't think smelt much like gingerbread men, but I've grown to love the smell and it lingers for a quite a...

    This is an "OK" scrub at best!. Nothing too special about this. It really doesn't smell anything like gingerbread at all.. more ginger than anything.. i agree. But nonetheless i like it, and the...

    I loved the consistency. But I HATED the smell. It seemed to last and last. I had to give it away because the smell grossed me out so much. For a better smelling alternative try Skin by...

    I LOVE this. I was wary about buying a body scrub because I'd heard most of them leave your tub coated with oil and/or "sand" from the granules. But I read the reviews saying it was oil-free and...

    The only disappointement I found was that it failed to heat up as the label promised. It smells fresh and gingery, but not overpoweringly so. Most important, it does not make the tub slippery...

    I didn't find the "warming" aspect it claims to have. I also don't smell the gingerbread either. It doesn't smell much like anything. Maybe I bought an old jar...I actually miss the oil in it, as...

    I'm not a huge fan of this scrub. It does soften and exfoliate, but where is the gingerbread smell?? It smells somewhat spicy, but not like real ginger as others have said and definitely not like...

    Great scrub! It's quite grainy but I love the smell and the way my skin feels after I use it. It is oil free which I like and leaves my skin so soft. Again, I love the smell! Much better than their...

    One of Philosophy's best. I have used both the Amazing Grace and Gingerbread man. Both my sister like this one better, it's got a warmer scent (not so floral). It is heavy duty scrubbing and leaves...
