If you are looking to moisturize your hand. The marijuana is your best bet. I liked the rose scent and the lightness of the lotion. The marijuana smells pretty heavy.
I've read the few comments here on this hand cream and I have to say I disagree. I like the rose scent. It's not super strong like some you would get from the drug store and it does smell like roses. In fact, it reminds me of my mom's house and all of her rose bushes.
The lotion itself is very light and non greasy which was a huge plus for me. I tried it in the store and debated on whether to get it and did end up ordering it online at 50% off during Cyber Monday. It doesn't last the whole day, just a couple of hours, but that's perfect for me.
Initially, I was put off by the smell...but I guess it grew on me. What I hate about this hand cream is that it feels so good at first when you put it on, but it dries out my hands and makes them feel so horrible! And I got this because I wanted to help moisturize my hands...what a waste! continued >>

I have never been a fan of flowery scents but I find The Body Shop's Rose body lotion surprisingly pleasant, maybe because it lingers softly rather than packing a solid floral punch. Unlike the previous reviewer, I don't find this scent to be overwhelming in the least. Rather, it doesn't last more than three hours on me after application, something I don't mind since I don't usually wear floral-scented products. This is a sweet feminine smelling rose, not vibrant like TBS's Cassis Rose, but soft and fragile with an almost powder-like quality to it. I quite like it. As for a body moisturizer, TBS's lotions aren't the best if you're looking for superb moisturizing but using this product has left my skin feeling soft and supple and sufficiently hydrated in Malaysia's humid climate. I like how the lotion absorbs quickly leaving no greasy residue behind. Since the scent is so gentle, it won't interfere with any fragrance you choose to wear. What I like most about TBS lotions is the pump dispenser packaging, which makes it incredibly handy for both travel and everyday use. I've tried many TBS lotions over the years (favourites being Satsuma and Strawberry) and although Rose was a pleasant departure from my usual obnoxious fruity scents, I didn't enjoy it that much to consider a repurchase.
This is on sale right now at the Body Shop...and it is on sale for a reason...this stuff stinks. I used the tester to apply a little to my hand. Initially, it didn't have much of a scent at all but as I continued shopping it became very overpowering. So strong it gave me a headache. I have washed my hands 3 times and I can still detect traces of it. It is very perfume-y and not like roses at all. *gag* Dr.Hauschka and Jurlique make much nicer rose scented products.
