I am in love love love with this product! It's as lovely and luxurious as the Trish body cream, but it's $38 cheaper and doesn't have those damn sparkles in it (which ruin the Trish cream, IMHO). Unlike the Trish cream, it has a hint of lemon when first applied which quickly dissipates, leaving the closest scent to Trish #9 I've smelled, but slightly fresher. It's lovely, and the staying power is great. Oh, and it moisturizes like crazy, too. Outstanding. I've just ordered my second tub in a month. I just can't get enough of this cream and this scent!

great smell, but I really was not a fan of the cream formulation; it really IS like spreading water on your skin (had to actually try it to understand this concept.) I am glad I tried it, though, because it has casued me to purchase the scent (which I may not have chosen on my own) from other etailers in better formulations.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? :-) I can't stop smelling my arm when I wear this; when I don't wear it I love to take the lid of the jar and take a big whiff! It's great for year-round wear too--not too fruity for winter, not too musky for summer. Pretty darn close to perfection.

As I purchased this sight unsmelled, I was totally relying on my fellow MUA's feedback to help me out. You did not fail me! This is a wonderful product, the smell is heavenly. This is very similar to mure et musc which is my fav in the warmer months, w/o the high price. This is an amazeing body cream, it glides on rich and sinks into the skin w/o being greasey. I will buy this again.

I'm gonna jump on the bandwagon. I read all the great reviews and it seemed this was the one of the most popular scents of AZW. I usually avoid fruity smells. I was pleasantly surprised. I have to preface this by saying that my sense of smell is usually VERY weak and I tend to pick up top notes or base notes, and not necessarily what other people are smelling.

Having said that, I liked this scent. It's a very interesting combination that is *sweet* but also refreshing. I haven't smelled anything like it and I'll definitely use up my tub of lotion.

WOW! I love this scent! Very romantic and delish! I smell blackberry and I smell musk- not to fruity and overall very very intoxicating! I love this! The shea souffle is very whipped and when applied to skin sinks in quickly and lasts and lasts all day long! I love this and will continue to buy!

I love AZW so much....this scent is nice. Blackberry with zest of lemon plus musk. It's nice but not my fave scent. My fave scent so far is Strawberry lemonade and Vanilla Crunch. Shea souffle has cool feeling on skin and absorb well.

A gorgeous, gorgeous scent, very similar to Philosophy's Falling In Love. Nice, creamy moisturizing lotion, though a bit greasier that what I like. Will be trying this fragrance in other products because it is pure heaven! Very fast shipping and nice added sample with order. Lovely.

This stuff is just heavenly. Fresh juicy blackberry with a zing of lemon, which is then softened by sexy musk. The cream is nice and thick, yet melts right into your skin and disappears. I was worried it would not be moisturizing enough, but I have stayed nice and soft through the winter with this. I layer this with Serendipitous, a fragrance with chocolate, musk, white flowers and vanilla and the combination is such a man magnet :) Lots of compliments from both sexes.

Another I can't believe I haven't raved about before =). This is most definitely a staple for me. The cream itself is nice, but the scent is GORGEOUS! It's the closest dupe I've found for Trish #9, and layers so beautifully with it. This is just a sexy, sexy, feel good scent, and I have it in everything!!!

I love L'Artisans Exteme Mure et Musc, but didn't want to spend the $$$ for the expensive body lotion. This blackberry musk is perfect to layer under the L'Artisan and increases the staying power 10 fold. I'm going to try the same scent in other forms.

Hi there. As another person wrote ...I would never have found this product without this board. I am so happy that I did. I still LOVE my Trish # 9 however, this stuff lasts LONGER and I think it may be deeper. I can smell this on my clothes the next day and even until they are washed they pleasantly scent the air around them. Try the OIL in this scent...wonderful! So economical too. The customer service is the best too. Another good thing about this product line is they have room sprays and car deodorizers and tart warmers etc. in your favorite perfume scent so that your entire life can be scented with your fave! Thanks for letting me know about this scent and these products. This will save me lots of money as I don't really wear anything else very often! giggle!

I love this so much that it's now my aim to get this scent in every single product that they make it in. It's the *perfect* balance of sweet blackberry and sexy musk understone...quite gorgeous. There's also a bit of a green note somewhere in there - probably part of the blackberry - that makes this a standout. I've heard that this is as close as it gets to Trish #9, which is at the top of my wishlist thanks to this :) The souffle itself is wonderful...very moisturizing and thick. Hold the scent very well too, so I wake up in the morning with skin still softly scented of Blackberry Musk. Mmmmm...sexy!

Love this one! Very rich and moisturizing yet light weight and absorbs beautifully. Scent is wonderful,the blackberry is very true and the musk cuts the sweetness just enough.

I'm a huge fan of most every musk and (insert berry here) type scent, such as CSP Fruit Sauvage and Trish #9. After hearing about how wonderful the A Zaftig Woman Blackberry Musk was, I'd been dying to try it, but, without an income for the summer, I was unable to order anything. Thankfully, an incredibly sweet and generous swapper sent me a sample pot of this and I have to rave, as I'm so in love with it! Perfectly blended with the fruity and musky notes neither clashing or becoming overbearing, I will most definately be buying a little of everything in this scent as soon as humanly possible.

Just as Chatekt wrote, this really does smell like Philosophy's "Falling in Love" fragrance! It's a nice blackberry scent that's not overly musky, yet not sweet either. I just wish the scent lasted longer on my skin!

This is an incredibly beautiful scent that reminds me of something much more expensive than AZW! I normally don't like musk scents at all, but this one is a definite exception. The slight hint of blueberry makes this lighter and a bit creamier than it would be otherwise, and though it's not a fruity scent, it still manages to smell fresh and summery. Pairs wonderfully with my favorite Trish #9 and blends into the skin evenly, leaving it soft and fragrant for hours.

AZW Shea Souffles are amazing in texture, light and moisturizing!
The Blackberry Musk scent is wonderful, and Sexy :)
It reminds me of a perfume of mine, "Falling In Love", by Philosophy, except it is not as sweet as FIL, which is a good thing, in an all over body cream.
Try this scent! Pretty and fun, with a definite feminine edge :)

I received a sample of this in my latest order, and wow, was I ever surprised! Normally I cower in fear from all things "musk"...but this is an exception. The scent is tart, sweet blackberries and perhaps a hint of vanilla--sweet, and yet very fresh at the same time. I love the scent, as well as the texture and moisturizing properties of the Shea Souffles.

I concur with the previous reviewer- THANKS to all here for helping me find A Zaftig Woman!! And my family thanks you, too, since I now give tons of this stuff away as gifts.
This does smell just like Trish #9-hooray! Perfect and fresh.
I do find the balmy texture of the Souffle a bit difficult to work with some mornings, but ultimately, the softness and scent are worth it!
