I had very high hopes for this hand soap but I ended up being disappointed. Vanilla is the only scent my fiance and I can agree on and I really do love the scent, no problems there. After about two weeks of use my hands started getting itchy and cracked. I believe this is due to the anti-bacterial ingredient, triclosan/: Although my fiance and his mother (she has it in Market Apple) did not run into this problem. If you are an avid hand washer I suggest alternating with a moisturizing hand soap and following up with a hand creme. :D

I love this hand soap and always have some on hand. I love vanilla anything and this scent is so perfect though it may be too sweet for some. Every time I have people over they always make a comment about how great this soap is after using it. The scent stays on your hands for a while too which is great but might bother some. Great price if you get it on sale!

Had this with me on a weekend trip to the mountain. Weather was dry but it works very well in dry weather. The scent is ok though. A little bit too sweet.

I absolutely adore this soap, even though I normally do not like the scent and would never buy the lotions or scents in Warm Vanilla Sugar.

But it is such a universal scent and I have it in all of the bathrooms in our house because I love how clean your hands get with this and are left with just a slight scent without drying out my skin

I have mine in the foaming hand soap because I find it is gentler on my very dry winter hands. Just one pump gives you enough to wash your hands thoroughly. The Warm Vanilla Sugar scent lingers on my hands. Perfect for winter.

I love all of BBWs antibacterial products, especially the gels. You can always get really good deals on them and stock up. The Vanilla line is my favorite over all though. Its not too sweet, its more of a warm, vanilla.

I love sweet smells and this smells scrumptious. You don't need much to get a good lather so the product lasts quite a while. Cleans very well. Also makes a great gift. I recommend trying this for yourself. They have many other wonderful scents. :)

Made a mistake and bought this scent once in the soap. I remember a long time ago, Bath and Body Works had a scent called Natural Vanilla. That was the BEST vanilla scent on the market. Pure, clean vanilla without all the nasty, sickly sweet undertones that this Warm Vanilla Sugar has (even the name is icky). I like quite a number of the Bath and Body Works scents, but this one just misses, even as a soap that washes off your hands.

O I HATE the smell of this it is so sweet it really makes me feel sick. Other than that, it is a great product, but I cant use it because the scent lingers on my hands for hours.

Most agree that this smells great, but I would like to say since I've been using this, the skin on my hands doesn't get so dry or painfully crack anymore. I've been using this foaming handwash for about one year now, and my hands have never felt or looked better. In the past, I needed to slather on hand moisturizer like crazy, but not so much now. This formula is the one I prefer over the others that BBW makes. I'm also very senstive to most scents, however warm vanilla sugar doesn't give me a migraine.

Yum, yum, yum! I'm so glad I read the reviews here before I went to B&BW when I was in the States just recently. I LOVE this soap! Every time I use it, I almost want to eat my own hands. Lol. I would wash my hands 100 times a day if the weather here in Sweden wasn't so cold and dry. They should make a hand cream with this scent, or the Vanilla Bean scent! Or maybe it's been done? I didn't see it in any of the stores I went to, though...

This smells soooo good! -And that is coming from a person who normally is ridiculously sensitive to smells. And my Mom likes the smell as well and she has severe allergies to fragrances. I really like that it works into a lather so fast and easily. I also like that the bottles are pretty enough to have out, it gets so messy having to transfer soap into a nice looking soap pump. The price seems very reasonable for such a nice product! I will defiantly be checking out other scents!

I always stock up on the moisturizing versions of these anti-bacterial hand soaps when there is a sale, and tend to hoard this fragrance more than any others. I love that it leaves my dry hands softly scented and pretty soft actually. I love the home fragrance oil and scented candle in this scent as well. I find warm vanilla sugar too cloying (for my taste) in the lotions and sprays, however.

My other current fave scents in this hand wash are kitchen lemon, moonlight path, and cherry blossom. They always discontinue my fave fresh scents (like white tea and ginger), but I enjoy that there are many options to choose from.

I just love this scent. I have a lot of stuff in the warm vanilla sugar. It is a nice wash overall. There isn't too much you can say about hand soap though. I always stock up on them when they are 5 for $10 so I never run out.

This leaves the hands throroughly cleansed and refreshed with a soft,silky, supple, hydrated feeling. The scent is the same warm, sweet, slightly smokey and spicy fragrance lots of us know and love as Warm Vanilla Sugar by Bath and Body works. The smell is not overpowering just nice. It is not overly girly or feminine either so the men and boys in your family can feel free to use this hand soap without the fear of smelling like a woman/girl! LOL!

My husband and son like this as much as I do. I first bought the moisturizing version last winter to put at the kitchen sink, where I'm constantly washing my hands. It only takes a little bit to do a good job. It's creamy, like a lotion. It made a world of difference in the dryness of my hands -- no more cracked skin after a couple days of cooking or baking during the cold, dry holiday months. It seems to always be available at three for $10, and I just bought four for $10, so the price really isn't bad. I've now got BBW moisturing anti-bacterial soap (in a variety of scents) at every sink in the house.

This is one of my favorite scents. The Warm Vanilla Sugar lotion is a bit overpowering, because the vanilla scent is a bit too strong, but in a hand soap it's perfect. It left my hands very subtly scented with the great scent of vanilla-ness. Love, love, love! Would definitely repurchase! (Especially when they have their 3-for-10 sales! =P)

this is my fav soap to keep in my bathroom. the scent is to die for! it really is a warm scent. i love how the scent lingers on my hands but isn't too overpowering. such a bathroom staple and moisturizing too. i also keep one in my boyfriend's bathroom b/c i'm addicted to anti-bacterial stuff as of late. the coconut lime verbena soap is great too...but this is my first choice hand soap! not a bad price either, esp. when B&BW has the 3 for $10 sales which is like all the time. =)
