Be careful if you have dry skin,as it may dry your skin and hair out even more. However,the scent itself is phenomenal. I would buy it again only since it comes in a package with the body souffle lotion which I adore.

For this price I would expect something lasting...and thicker. Creme brulee scent is okay, but just okay. Not worth the money.

The smell is okay, but doesn't last once you use it. I have only used this as bubble bath and it's is okay. Way to much money for a product like this. I prefer my LUSH bubble bars.

If you want a shower gel with no scent-get this one. Very disappointed in Philosophy-I love Amazing Grace-nicely scented etc. But this one is practically scentless. I bought it to have the same (or close to) Laura Mercier Creme Brulee scrub, wow-not even close. Very Blah.

This is my new favorite 3 in 1. It smells exactly like creme brulee. Not fake or plastic. Just perfect and good. It performs well as a body wash. It lathers well. I don't mind it as a shampoo either but I need a good conditioner afterwards. As a bubblebath, it's not that great though. My only real complaint is that the smell could be stronger. It doesn't leave scent on my skin, which it's not supposed to, but I'd like to smell it during my whole shower.

I tried this in the store and it smelled great, but when I actually used it in the shower it was totally off - a plastic-y, fake vanilla scent. Not sure if I got a bad bottle or what, but this was terrible to my nose. Like all 3 in 1s it lathers well which is why I gave this 2 out of 5 instead of 1.

I love love love Creme Brulee for dessert as well as a discontinued Yankee Candle in these scent I recently bought.I was lemming this one for sometime.Wow what a craptacular product! Smells delicious but just like BBW Brown Sugar Vanilla, which you can get for half the price. So not worth the $, not so effective as a bubble bath (Bubbles? I didn't see any bubbles) and man it made my skin dry. Gah I bought this as well as 2 other scents.My conclusion my friends... in the words of PE "Don't Believe The Hype"

I admit I'm a bit surprised by all the positive reviews. This product has hardly any scent to it! I had to rub it in my hands and hold it up to my nose to smell anything. And what I did smell smelled plasticky and artificial. And let's be honest, without the fragrance, it's just another body wash, and you can pick up body washes for a lot less money at a drug store.
I'm normally a fan of Philosophy's 3-in-1's for the great scents. I've owned several. But I'm afraid I can't recommend this one.

This is one of the first Philosophy shower gels in the longest time that I thought to myself this is actually worth $16 for a shower gel, I'll think I'll buy it! It smells delicious and not all synthetic-y like alot of them do.

I only use this as a shower gel, and I really enjoy it! It lathers well with a loofah and the smell is strong and delicious. The smell does not last outside of the shower though, but that's fine with me.

This stuff has a nice smell -- it kind of reminds me of the Slice of Heaven scent by Victoria's Secret. Now while I really do enjoy this scent, I think it could be a lot sweeter and stronger. Bubble bath/shower gel usually doesn't give you a lasting scent after you get out of the tub, so it needs to be somewhat potent to begin with. Once this stuff hits the water, it pretty much loses its scent, so you can bet you won't be able to smell it on your skin once you dry off. I did get a lot of bubbles from it, however, so I'm not TOO disappointed. I'm still searching for that perfect dessert scent...might try the birthday cake lotion from the Dylan's Candy Bar line next time I shop at sephora.com.

This smells amazing!! I got a full size as a gift for my birthday and I'd definitely buy one to replace it when it runs out. It lathers up well and smells so sweet, but not TOO sweet. If you like Creme Brulee - try this because you will love it!

When I saw this at Sephora yesterday, I knew I had to try it being that I love creme brulee! This doesn't smell EXACTLY like the real thing, but it does come close. It has such a nice, sweet scent to it that's perfect after a long day. I have never tried any of Philosophy's 3-in-1's before this one, and I'm glad I got this. I love sweet scented things, so I probably would have love this being a little more scented. It smells great in the shower, but after your hair has dried, you can't smell it anymore which bums me out. My hubby couldn't even smell the difference lol. That's probably the only thing I would change, well I'd maybe add a pump to this too, being that the bottle is so big to squeeze every bit of it.
Also, most of the reviews here just talk about the scent. It's delicious, but what about it being a shampoo- Well, let me tell you that I have NEVER used only a shampoo because my hair just dries out like crazy. If I don't use conditioner after shampoo, I literally can't even comb my hair, much less want to even touch it because it feels worse than synthetic hair. This 3-in-1 has been the ONLY shampoo I have used and didn't need to use conditioner! It's super foamy and really conditions your hair. I would have liked the scent being a little stronger, but all in all I liked the product and think I'm going to start a little collection of the different 3-in-1's :)
