I just started using this & it smells so good. Exactly like fresh baked muffins, & it has the perfect touch of spiciness without being too overpowering. This reminds me so much of fall!

This is the perfect shower gel for fall of the year! I got this for $11.00 at Sephora's Philosophy Christmas in July sale. This scent is so spot on that one sniff made me want to see the leaves changing and make cider. This is one I would recommend for pumpkin lovers or people who love the crisp days of autumn. Lovely!

I think I had higher hopes for this 3-in-1 scent. I purchased a full-size in the fall- which is the PERFECT time to try this one!! I thought it smelled like Oatmeal Raisin with some cinnamon added. I don't think I would repurchase this one in a full-size.

I love love love Pumpkin Spiced Muffin! The first time I used this in the bath, I couldn't stop smelling myself and exclaming "ooohh" and "yuuumm". This is going to sound stupid, but I actually had to stop myself from tasting the gel. This is how delicious this smells. What's great about it is that you can smell the pumpkin definitely but then you can smell the cake too. It's definitely not moisturizing out of the bath but I'm feeling my skin right now (four-five hours after I took a bath) and my skin feels silky smooth and I didn't even put lotion on.

It is a bit sad as well that the scent on your skin fades in time but I actually use this as a shampoo and that makes the scent last deliciously longer.

I'm definitely going to buy back ups as soon as I'm able to and would definitely gift this to any girl I know with a sweet tooth like me :)

Smells great, just like pumpkin bread. Overall I think the Philosophy body washes are not as moisturizing as I'd like and fairly expensive. However, I just keep buying them anyway because I love the way they smell. This one does not disappoint. I do wish they would make these in smaller sizes though because I tend to get bored of the scent LONG before I run out of the product.

My whole family loves this stuff! It really is a well-crafted scent; it really smells like spicy pumpkin muffins coming out of the oven: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, pumpkin, vanilla, and cake. So nice for autumn!

I'm a huge fan of Philosophy's autumn/winter 3-in-1s. The more summery ones tend to disappoint me. This one may be the best one I have ever tried. I tend to always have a chill in the cooler months and this really helps me to feel warmed up and alive. I love pumpkin muffins and do my share of baking them, and I have to say that this really smells just like the real thing. The spices, the pumpkin, the creamy notes, even the cake comes through. I love it!

I love this fragrance especially now that it's Autumn as it's so warm smelling especially the cinnamon and ginger that I can detect in there. I bought this from QVC UK ages ago and they haven't sold it since so I'm hoping desperately that they get it back in Stock soon.

Yes! Yes I will buy this again! Of course I will because it smells exactly like sweet pumpkins. And now I do! I did taste this though and it is not delicious whatsoever so don't do that. I want the perfume of this! I don't think there is one but there should be and I would wear it 24/7 no matter what.

Heaven in a bottle. I thought the pumpkin pie 3-in-1 smelled nice but I got tired of it quickly. This is far superior, IMO. There are more layers to the scent. I smell the cake, I smell the spices and I smell the pumpkin. I get a whiff of carrot cake at times, but that's fine because I love the smell of carrot cake too!

I've been trying to wean myself off of philosophy's 3-in-1s (too pricey and I'm trying to go sulphate-free), but these scents keep bringing me back. I have no doubt I will be stocking up on this scent. One of my absolute favorites.

It's a very pricey body wash, but smells amazing. I only use it as a body wash so I can't attest to its ability as a 3-in-1.


All I can say is that it smells divine - like a fresh pumpkin pie loaded with cinnamon and other warm spices. What a great smell to wake up to in the morning! Makes me feel like I'm at home, and makes me hungry for pie :)


And the smell doesn't linger on my skin after the shower, which I rather like because then I can put on perfume or other perfumed moisturizer. If you're looking for a lingering sent on the skin though, look elsewhere. Also, it's not the most moisturizing shower gel - it's not drying, but not moisturizing. But I would buy it again just for the amazing scent!

This is scrumptious! It smells exactly like the real thing - I can even smell the cake note underneath the pumpkin and spice notes. As for the spice notes, I normally don't like overly spicy pumpkin scents, but the spices in this meld perfectly with the pumpkin and cake and aren't overpowering at all. If you like to eat pumpkin muffins or cake, you will love this.

Yum! This is the best smelling 3 in 1 yet, IMO. I love pumpkin spice scented things anyway, and this did not disappoint. It smells absolutely delicious. Like all Philosophy 3 in 1s it has a rich, luxurious lather that rinses away clean. After you leave the shower, the scent is gone so you can continue to wear your everyday fragrance. That's the best part of these to me, because I don't really want to smell like a muffin all day. My husband asked what was the point, and I told him you get a rich, soft shower gel and you get to enjoy the yummy scent in the meantime!

The one thing I look forward to most in the fall is all the harvesty and pumpkiny scented items that come out: candles, lotions, lattes, etc. I just received this Philosophy 3 in 1 Pumpkin Spice Muffin, and it smells exactly like a warm pumpkin muffin. There isn't an overwhelming or fake scent, it is a warm and natural fragrance that is perfect for this time of year. I absolutely love it, and would definitely recommend this for anyone that likes the smells of fall!

I received this as a gift as part of the Halloween set (which I love). I think this could possibly be the best smelling 3-in-1 I've tried yet. It really, really smells like the pumpkin spice bread I make around the holidays and my husband keeps following me around and sniffing me. He thinks it smells great and even wants me to run him a bath with the stuff. I think it's a great body wash and even shampoo if you have hair in good condition. As with all 3-in-1's it's not as strong as a bubble bath but it's still better than the others. Honestly the smell is amazing. It makes it feel like fall and that the holidays are already here. Love the smell!

Huh, unlike you guys, I'm a big fan of sharp spices (hello, Cinnabar) and find this 3-in-1 maybe just a little too far on the spicy side. It certainly smells nice, but I'd like a little more pumpkin/cream and a little less nutmeg. As with all of the Philosophy washes, it's great for cleansing. I can't speak of the shampoo qualities, because I'm of the opinion that only a crazy person would use these things on his or her hair. Complaints aside, I'm happy to use the Pumpkin Spice Muffin wash on fall mornings, but I'm already looking forward to the Eggnog Latte 3-in-1 after Thanksgiving.

Pumpkin goodness! Creamy dreamy pumpkin scent, I don't really like sharp spicy notes but this one is nice in balance, the right amount of Pumpkin, Nutmeg, and Cream. It lathers well too, and the scent does linger after shower. Must have !

I am a pumpkin junkie. I can't get enough. I have candles, room sprays, body care, and tons of pumpkin baking recipes.

I have tried some yummy smelling pumpkin body washes (B&BW 3-in-1 Pumpkin Pie was nice and spicy) and some not so great ones (B&BW Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin body wash smells too fruity to me, but I LOVE the candle and Wallflowers in that scent).

Philosophy's Pumpkin Pie 3-in-1 was just OK for me. But, given my obsession with all things pumpkin I had to give this new Philosophy scent a try. It is delicious! It is my favorite pumpkin scented body wash ever. It actually is tied with Philosophy's Cinnamon Buns for my favorite body wash now.

Pumpkin Spice Muffin is a warm, spicy pumpkin scent with a hint of buttery goodness. Philosophy washes all foam wonderfully and feel luxurious. This one is no exception. It makes showering a real treat. If you love warm comfort scents definitely give Pumpkin Spice Muffin a try!

I am in love with this. I bought this as an One Time Special Offer on QVC. One 32 oz. Pumpkin Spice Muffin and one 32 oz. Caramel Apple 3-in-1 for $39.00. What a deal! Out of the two, Pumpkin Spice Muffin is definitely my favorite. It is warm, but not too spicy. Perfect!

Pumpkin Spice Muffin came out in August/Sept. of 2008 for fall. I'm a huge Philosophy fan but I'm not always 100% impressed with their 3-in-1's. Most of them smell great but a lot of them can smell very artificial and plastic-y. I'm happy to say that this is not the case with Pumpkin Spice Muffin. This one's a winner! It smells EXACTLY like a pumpkin spice muffin so much so that when showering with it I started craving them and even read the recipe on the front of the bottle to see if I could make the muffins! The smell is very rich but not overpowering. I love the 3-in-1's a lot because they smell divine in the shower but they don't last very long afterwards which is a good thing because I doubt anyone wants to go around all day smelling like muffins. This is perfect for fall and I hope it's out for awhile because I feel like I may need a backup!

For the record, I only use the 3-in-1's as body wash since my hair is color-treated and very thick and I need something thicker and more geared toward my hair type when I wash my hair. So in saying that, I can't judge whether it would work good as a shampoo or conditioner. I love the way it works as a body wash though and I would repurchase!
