    Like most other reviewers, I received a bottle of this as a birthday gift from Sephora. I have quite a few of Philosophy's other 3-in-1's, and the scent of this one is my least favorite of the lot...

    I don't know how you ladies can give this a bad review. Ok it is the crappiest bubble bath ever and gives off about 5 bubbles max! I have not tried to use it as a shampoo as i am a lady who is in...

    I thought i just got a bad bottle until I read the other reviews. Mine has no smell. It's so disappointing because I love the other 3-in-1's. all I can smell is a faint plastic smell. No vanilla or...

    You really don't want to drop these bottles- the cap breaks every time I buy them within a month. This time I happened to have one on hand that fit- last time I had to use the cap of a champagne...

    I dont know why I bought this, after loving lemon custard 3 in 1, I bought this on a complete whim when I had some spare money a few weeks ago. £14.50 on a shower gel? i must be mad that could have...

    I bought this a few days before my birthday. I thought it would be a cute reminder. It was. I think it does smell like vanilla birthday cake. The smell doesn't linger but then I really don't expect...

    I thought this would smell so good, but it was kind of weak. Not really vanilla birthday cake-like, more like watered down synthetic vanilla. It just seems off the mark. It WAS very rich and...

    I love this shower gel!!! I love the scent so much that I wish it would linger after my shower. Unfortunately it's not as strong as I'd like it, but I'll deal!

    The fragrance is so weak it's not worth trying. Out of all the Philosopy gels I've smelled this is by far the weakest. Total waste of money.

    Very disappointed with this purchase. I am usually a big fan of the Philosophy 3 in 1s, but this one just isn't doing it for me. As others have said, the fragrance is pretty weak with this one -...

    While this does smell like vanilla cake, the scent is very weak. I have to use quite a bit in order to smell anything. Plus I prefer my cake scents to have a frosting note, which this 3 in 1...

    I also got this as a freebie from the Sephora Beauty Insider thing. I am still not impressed with these Philosophy 3-in-1s. They seem overpriced and over-hyped to me. This one in particular is...

    This was a free birthday gift from Sephora, which was nice enough in itself. I love the Vanilla Birthday Cake scent, too. It smells like buttercream frosting and isn't overpowering. I love the...

    I got this free from Sephora and while I love the smell, lather, etc., I have to give it a 3 because the scent is so weak. It really smells like delicious cake batter, but only weakly for about 30...

    At first when I got this, I loved it. Smelled exactly like a yummy birthday cake with icing. However, as I kept going through the bottle, it seemed that the smell, (which I think is weak compared...

    This is a very nice cake batter and vanilla extract scent. The philosophy formula is nice and non-drying, and this is a wonderful kitchen smell. I would not use this on my hair, but overall, a very...

    I find Vanilla Birthday Cake the least offensive of all the philosophy scents. The other food scents made me gag, but then again, I was never into food scents. I personally don't think this...
