I received a sample of this in a beauty box. 30ml lasted me around 3 full body uses, so not enough for a fully comprehensive review, but enough to know I'm underwhelmed!
As a body moisturiser, this is OK enough, but if I pay a premium price for something, I'd like better results than I can achieve at a lower pricepoint and this fails to impress. My skin feels hydrated enough and has an ok-ish glow, but if I'm spending the $$$, I'd go for Kiehl's creme de corps over this every time. Otherwise, there are any number of brands that deliver similar results for a lower price (Aveeno, Soap & Glory, Nivea, Palmers etc)

Runny and smells like Elmer's glue. I do like glycerin as the first ingredient. Inoffensive but I can do better.

Overall, I do like this lotion. It is expensive, and for something non-miracle inducing I don't think it was worth it. However, it was more moisturizing than the average lotion and I personally enjoyed the scent. My biggest problem with this was that I felt the lotion never fully absorbed into my skin and rather sat there and was a little sticky.

This is the best paraben free moisturiser I have found so far but it isn't really thick enough for heavy duty Winter moisturising. My main gripe is the packaging in that I love the pump dispenser but I don't love the fact that you can't get at the cream at the bottom of the bottle using the pump dispenser as it stops working about 5/6ths of the way down. The smell is nice and fresh but nothing exciting.

This by far is my favorite body lotion. It's natural and I like the scent just wish that this lotion wasn't expensive. So, I normally will by the full size lotion in a gift set. I find it to be cheaper this way.

I got a sample size of this in a Caudalie gift set. Absolutely smells wonderful and feels very moisturizing. Seems to be filled with anti-oxidants and ingrediants that are good for dry skin. Im lovin' it.

Smell is such a personal thing and I have seen in the reviews that it was a big turnoff for some people. I love this stuff, especially the smell. It's a bit pricey but it has a nice consistency and my bottle has lasted for a good while and I use it daily.

This moisturizing cream was a GWP from NM's a while back. It has a nice scent - kind of a "fresh" smell - although it is a little strong, as others have noticed. I can't really use this for my body, as it doesn't sink in quickly enough (most rich body creams and butters don't work for me), so I've been using it up on my feet. I was watching "stripped" on the Style Network, and the Caudalie rep said that their research tem managed to find a way to stabilize the polyphenols...but do you believe everything you see on TV? ;)

I buy a body lotion to effectively hydrate my skin--Caudalie failed this simple task.
At 35 USD for 8 ounces, I expect results. This offered no superior moisturization. The product touts its antioxidant properties, yet "antioxidents" are notoriously unstable and require stable packaging, usually darkened or opaque bottles or tubes . Caudalie Soin Nourrissant comes in a semi-transparent white bottle. Hummmm.
It left my skin moisturized for a few minutes, than disappeared. Burt's Bees (at 10 USD) lasts longer for suppleness and hydration.
The smell isn't bad, but if I want fragrance I have shelves of EDP and parfume, I don't need a moisturizer to smell good (or bad).
Very unimpressed. This might be nice at the Caudalie spa if one is being pampered for a few days, but for everyday use I need a work horse that does its job without fail. I have over forty skin, and I need a product to provide hydration which lasts.
This is not that product.

This body lotion smells absolutely gorgeous. It has nice and light texture that could be nicely spreaded over my body. Like other reviewers have mentioned, it's not suitable for drier winter period, just not moisturising enough. I only apply it after using a body scrub during summer. It's a bit expensive (AU$38), but the big pump bottle would last for ages, I need only 1.5 pump each time for my whole body.
By the way, here's the description for this product from the pamphlet that the SA gave me, 'This wonderful body-care product leaves the skin soft and firm. Soothes and protects the skin from premature ageing.'

Hmmmmm....$35 for a 8.8oz body lotion? It was very light and nice smelling, but I didn't find it anything special, and can't justify the price tag to purchase this again. If you are interested, I suggest trying a sample first.

This body moisturizer left my skin nice and soft, but it was fairly light so it may not be for those with very dry skin. The scent is typical of Caudalie - a very pleasant light greeny scent. However, I can't let go of all my foody and fruit scented body lotions so I never use this one!

I like this! It has a nice texture that works into skin quickly- though I don't find it particularly moisturizing. as for the fragrance, that is probably what I like the best about this product. A bit expensive though..

I received a GWP at NM and I adore this body lotion. It is very moisturizing and has a nice scent. I can see how some would find it rather overbearing but it fades quickly. It is a floral, grape leave scent. I cannot attest to its antioxidant properties but it has intrigued me enough to seek out a full-size bottle. $35.00 US for 8.8 oz. at Aedes.

A trial size of this was included in the NM beauty bag. All I have to say is the smell is horrible. But, my regular hand lotion (B&BW Glove Potion #9) has been MIA for the past week and I was desperate to moisturize my hands. So I can deal with wearing it overnight, when I am sleeping and oblivious to the yucky smell. It does perform well but I could never spend money on something that stinky, there are better things out there.

I was not very impressed with this body lotion. The scent was a little strong but not offensive. However, this doesn't sink into the skin very quickly and it actually leaves me feeling somewhat sticky. It also doesn't do a great job of moisturizing. I would not recommend or repurchase this item.
