For anyone who loves sangria, this is a must have! Wearing this scent brings back memories of studying in Spain and going out to dinner/the bar with friends and enjoying this great drink.
I wore this to a mixer a few weeks ago and while I was at the bar, the bartender commented on how good something smelled. He thought it had been one of the drinks he made...that's how close this is.

What a wonderful scent! AZW describes Sangria as sweet, sugared citrus comprised of oranges, lemons and limes topped with sweet liquor. This is a definitely crisp, tart fragrance that is balanced by the very mild yet noticeable warmth of liquor notes. I didn't think I'd find this very wearable, but surprisingly it dries well and leaves behind a strong, summery scent that lingers for hours.

I received a sample of this in a swap and this was my first time being exposed to AZW. And now there's no turning back! I am very impressed with the quality of this product. I was skeptical because it was a body butter an immediately thought "greasy time". But it's not like that at all. It is a rather thick cream but it sinks in quickly and smells just like how the others described it. I had an outbreak of hives which left me with patches of dry skin. This shea body butter left my skin smooth as silk and took care of those unsightly dry patches! LOVE THIS STUFF! :D

Sangria has a really strong citrus scent to it - sweet and zingy all at the same time. It makes a wonderful summertime lotion IMHO and is *really* strongly scented so it lasts through most of the day without fading. The texture of this body cream is really nice - easy and smooth to apply and sinks into the skin quickly.

This is a great cream, but the scent just wasn't what I was hoping for...on me it went straight orange---like I had cut an orange in half and rubbed it on my skin. Great smell, just not something I'd probably wear too often =).

I received a sample of this and loved it so much I immediately ordered the full size and a roll-on fragrance. The scent is like extra-zingy fruit punch--sweet and very tangy, yet more complex than a plain "fruit punch" scent. I definitely smell orange and lime, and it has a bubbliness to it, like ginger ale. There's something more to the scent that I'm not sure how to describe (probably the "deep warming notes of sweet liquor" as the AZW website describes). The scent lasts, too (as does the scent from the roll-on). The body cream texture is a bit odd at first--almost has a slightly plasticky feel to it. But it sinks in immediately, and keeps me moisturized all day. Comes in a plastic bottle with a pump.
