This smells amazing.
I am a bit wary of the cyclo* and cross-polymer ingredients in general and this cream is a concoction of chemicals.
Works okay but I would not be buying this again.
Somehow, Boots products are not for me.

I found this on sale at a Target for $2.00 on sale.
I also found this on Drugstore.com, where you can get all the products, the body wash, body butter, and body scrub as a gift set for $19.99.
Check it out... great gifts.

This is not super strong, its softening, and fantastic. I actually love all of them. The body wash is fantastic, the exfolliant is amazing, and the body butter is amazing. They smell great, soften the skin, and not overpowering in scent. Close to the perfect product and scent.

I got this product for free working for Boots. I love this product because it has the perfect smell to it. Not too strong but just right, guys love it because it is just the right scent for everyone. It is now on sale, for two dollars cheaper. Go to the FREMONT TARGET shopping center in FREMONT HUB in CA.

P.S. I am not just saying this because I work for Boots Retail USA I really mean it!!! HONEST!!!

I was searching for a cheap body butter to wear under my L'Occitane Almond Blossom Dew fragrance and happened upon this at my local Boots store. Mmmmmmm dreamy almond scent, thick and moisturising. I will definitely repurchase this one over and over!

I got hooked on this product (as well as the Olive Bergamot Walnut body scrub) and was so excited to see CVS carry it! The price is pretty reasonable compared to the outstanding moisturizing power it provides! And the smell is divine! Every night after my bath or shower I smother this on, and in the morning I can still get a nice whiff of the fragrance. I love that it's not greasy, but absorbs into the skin beautifully.

The only negative is that the manufacturer could seal it so no one can tamper with it during import. I always feel like the lid has been opened and there's some missing.

I never go back to the same product twice because I like to "play the field" with moisturizers but I recently went back to Target after scooping out the last bit of this product and almost crying. This has a good smell (I like "foodie" smells), feels thick but not greasy, and is great for the patches of dry skin I get every winter. Before this I was a Body Shop Body Butter girl, but since I got this my body butters have been sitting under my sink getting no love. This is too thick for summer but once fall hits it is my one and only.

Edit: I forgot to mention the best part- I swear this firms up my jiggly thighs and butt. Really, it doesn't claim to do that or anything, but that's the effect I get. Maybe it's the result of the skin plumping up or the fact that you really have to massage it in, but it definitely makes my less firm parts feel better. Check it out for yourself.

I enjoy using this product. I bought a smaller pot, 1,69 fl.oz and I use it as a handcream. It smells great.

I really liked the texture of this body butter. It is rich enough to feel moisturizing, but is not too heavy and sinks in well. My skin is not especially dry and I greatly prefer this Boots butter to the ones I have tried from Bath and Body Works.
The scent is very nice - pleasant and calm.
I only have used a sample size that came with a set, but as soon as I use up my Bath and Body Works' butters I plan on purchasing a full size of this.
This may seem expensive compared to other drugstore products, but the price is comparable to similar quality body butters.

Eh, for a few bucks more I could have had the absolute best body butter (that'd be Bodyworks' Olive Oil, IMHO). The only plus is that the local Target is a mile away and the nearest Bodyworks is 20 minutes away!

This is by far one of my favorite butters. I love the body shop's brazil nut one and by all accounts, this one is fairly similar but i do find it to have better moisturising properties.

Another Boots product that failed for me...at first, I liked the smell, but it quickly gave me headaches...also, for a body butter, never really moisturized...would never repurchase.

I want to love this... but it just doesn't moisturise well enough for me.

I adore the smell, and carry it around with me just so I can whip the lid off and have a sniff every so often! But, when push comes to shove, it doesn't do much to save my poor dry cracked elbows :(

As long as your skin isn't too dry I'm sure this would work well enough, but I think mine is perhaps too dry for it. Oh.... I love the slightly 'bouncy' texture of this stuff too

This leaves my skin incredibly soft. It smoothes into my skin easily and leaves it silky soft- longer than any other body moisturiser I've used. I bought the travel size (50ml/ 1.69oz for £2) because I didn't want to buy the full size version just in case I didn't like it. But this is great! The scent is very lovely too. From the pot, it scent seems fairly strong- almond, milk and nutty. On skin, it smells lighter, less nutty but you can still smell light almond- it's more a milky scent. Smells gorgeous. It's a little greasy if you put too much on at once but after you know how much to put on, it's fine. Perfect for dry skin and dry patches. (£6.50 for full size 200ml at Boots)
UPDATE: This butter seems slightly too heavy for my skin now. Will not repurchase.

I love using this product all over but especially on my knees,elbows and soles of feet before I go to bed.It's a really comforting fragrance,however the fragrance is such that I woudn't want to use the product incessantly.By that I mean that I like using the product when I do but I also like to rotate the product with other moisturisers as I feel I would become weary of the smell if I used it non-stop.The smell,consistency and organic ingredients of this product was what persuaded me to purchase.Also,when I bought it it was on special offer which made it extra good value.I don't think you can go wrong with the product yet it won'y change your life either.It's benefits are the smell and immediate moisturisation to your skin,you won't see any long term benefits or firming qualities.
I would LOVE it if they made this product as a lip-balm!The scent would be divine on lips and I think it would do a really good job of moisturing lips.(well,thats if I wouldn't keep licking it off!)

I was in search for a body butter. After reading reviews of this product on MUA, I went to Target and got one. Well, I'm in love with this. The butter smells really good. I tried it on my hand, and my hand felt so smooth afterwards.

I want to fall in love with this product. I love the smell so much. I love how it feel on my skin. But too bad, that it leave my skin itchy. I think this product is nice, but it also too harsh for a sensitive skin person like me.

I am in love with this stuff. The smell!! Oh the smell!!! I usually hate anything that has a fragrance, but this stuff is heavenly!! It is thick and creamy, but does not leave your skin over-moisturized. I am on my 4th tub of it. HIGHLY recommended!! I just wish they had matching soap, etc.

Now *this* Boots Mediterranean Body butter smell I LOVE (I don't like the olive-based one). This Body Butter is everything I want and more. It goes on smoothly, I love the jar so I can get every last drop out of it, and my legs/arms/whatever feel smooth for hours after I put it on.

Honestly though, I think they had me at first sniff. What a wonderful smelling body butter!!

I love this, the scent is wonderful. It smells kind of powdery in the tub, but smells nice on (almondish). Makes your skin soft and silky, without being greasy, sticky, or oily. It contains organic almond oil, pistachio oil, and milk extract (among other things). It's about $9.99 for 6.6 fl oz. , which I think is a bit expensive for being a drugstore brand (especially since the tub is just cheap old plastic), but the product itself is worth it.
