I would have to mix this with something heavier to moisturize my body, but the scent is creamy and rich lavender without that dirty powder tone I get a lot from many products said to be lavender scented. Even my scent averse family likes this. I put a quarter size dollup on my hands and it is pretty strong, so you do not need much at all.

Oh, what a divine scent...My husband bought the perfume and body wash for me on our first anniversary, and I have loved it since. It has always reminded me of a perfumed book-mark sent to me in high school from an Austrian pen-pal...I accidentally left it in the library's copy of Anna Karenina, and never saw/ smelled it again. (I've spent years trying to remember the name of, and find the perfume itself, which I've since re-named "Anna Karenina"). Anyway, the Thymes's Lavender scent is almost identical to that remembered perfume. It has a very old-world, stately quality that you just can't pin-point. The fragrance is not really that of lavender--though there are definitely lavender undertones. It has a crisp, peppery smell...almost like that of a floral wine infused with verbena, clary sage, and a tiny bit of cedar wood. This is without doubt the most complex (and difficult) fragrance I've attempted to describe--yet by far, one of the most wonderful.

Moisturizes very well without greasiness. I'm not that crazy about lavender scents, but this didn't bother me so much. Have no idea how much it costs or what the packaging is like since mine was a nifty sample packet that I got in a swap. Would definitely repurchase.

I generally like Thymes products but I really did not care for this one. Any drugstore body lotion would have better moisturizing results than this one. And it might also smell much better than this one where the lavender scent is hardly detectable.

Ridiculously overpriced-strong scent-
moisturizes only mediocre.
My advice-
Buy drugstore moisturizers and add a drop of lavender.
They work as good or better than these expensive lotions.

Smells nice! Not too overpowering for a floral. Lotion could be more emollient...
