This scent to me is a musty, almond-y sweet scent with a tad of cinnamon thrown in. Not enough though to irritate my cinnamon-sensitive skin. It's nice skin, but not my favorite from AZW so i probably won't re-purchase.

The scent smelled like a mild cinnamon toast or a snickerdoodle.

I think this was mis-named. To my nose, it's an almond/vanilla with a touch of cinammon. Very much a baking type scent. Similar to the "cake bake" types of scents sold by other e-tailers.
I like it quite a bit, but to me, it is more of a fall/winter scent.

I can understand why this scent has received so many raves. If you love almond scents, you will truly adore this. It's a classic almond scent with loads of sugary sweetness added. I don't smell things like caramel or vanilla, but this does smell strongly like my favorite almond flavored pound cake, which is sweet, soft, chewy, and luscious. Same thing on my skin, minus the chewy factor!

This was just OK to me. It smelled a bit almondy and I can't stand almond lotions.. it was also quite sugary, but I didn't find that a problem. I did like the texture of the lotion though, and it was moisturizing on my skin.

I didnt like this at first but after I let time pass and sniffed again, I really liked it. For some reason, all the vanilla sugar, drops, etc. scents start to smell musty to me. I would repurchase.

This smells like a strong version of Jergens original scent lotion. A little spicier. Like amaretto. I dig it.

This smells really good. It reminds me of Angel food cake batter-yum! I like the consistency of the product as well.

I got this as a sample with my last order. The texture is very nice, like lotion, sinks right in without the watery texture like their old formulation and is very moisturizing.

I can't decide if I like the scent though. Sugar Drops starts out very almondy, like marzipan, smells just like Burt's Bees hand cream in the tub which I love. The almond very quickly fades and is replaced by a predominantly sweet cinnamon with an undertone of vanilla. It's very nice but not what I expected. I think A Zaftig Woman changed their base because this is how my Vanilla Apricot shea souffle ends up smelling like after the apricot/peach fades. I like cinnomon but I probably won't purchase again since they all end up smelling alike.
