Cherry Vanilla Soda is an amazing scent that smells exactly like Cherry 7 Up to my nose! In other words, there's less vanilla and a lot more cherry. It's got a very zingy, fresh quality to it, almost as if it has a burst of citrus (hence the 7 Up reference), so it's very much like a soda may smell. It's definitely not one of those warm, almond-cherry type scents. The scent is exquisite and unique - I normally don't find myself too keen on the scent of cherries, but this particular lotion really has caught my attention. The scent is very strong and really seems to last the day! I love the way this lotion makes my skin feel, too. Delightful!
