I guess I'll start by saying that I'm a sweets kind of girl, and if I can smell like a bakery then that's even better. There is no doubt about it, this lotion is STRONG scented. The fragrance also has some good staying power so if you are the faint of nose or don't want to smell like you've been bathing in a vat of vanilla all day, this is not for you. I've had this forever, but use it frequently. It's my go to for freshly shaven legs because it is very smooth but moisturizing and not sticky. My favorite thing about this lotion? I've been to the gym with this on, just because I've had it on all day, and I've had people ask me not once but twice if I smelled "brownies baking"? I guess it gets really fragrant when it heats up! Alright, end rant, but I do love the stuff.
PROS: yummy goodness, thick and creamy, not sticky, the big glass jar is nice
CONS: may be too strong for some

Wow, this brings back nostalgia. I've had a jar of this laying around for a very LONG time at my mother's house. I actually wonder if it's still there b/c a part of me truly wants to use it again, just because I LOVE the texture and it is very moisturizing. I can't say I ever really loved the smell of this stuff though , but it wasn't THAT bad. I mean the smell is kind of weird (even when I first bought it), and it's just not something I want to smell like. I mean it smells a little sour on the skin, and I've never had this happen with a souffle or lotion before. If they ever do bring this back, I probably will NOT repurchase.

Horrible smell. I can't stand it when my sister applies this. Smells like sickey-sweet candy. Dreams of getting toothaches, love handles, and hunger pangs strike me whenever i smell it. Also, the packaging is not attractive at all. A bland yellow with pink writing? Something I would never want within ten miles of my future apartment. If only I didn't love my sister so, I would have thrown it in the trash by now. Ah well.

I bought this in a set with the Honey Bath. I love the luxurious glass jars they both came in. I really love the caramel, vanilla and sugar scent of this. The texture of this souffle is perfect. I always smell scrumptious, and my skin is left soft and moisturized after using this.

I rarely come across a Tutti Dolci product that disappoints but Creme Brulee far surpasses 'disappointing' and is just plain horrid. I don't get any hints of vanilla, cake batter or caramelized sugar that the other reviewers do. To my nose, Creme Brulee has an awful cloying medicinal undertone, almost like crushed aspirin coated in tooth-achingly sweet syrup. When I heard BBW was discontinuing their entire Tutti Dolci stock, I panicked and started stocking up on as many body souffles as was humanly possible. I thank my lucky stars that Creme Brulee was almost impossible to find (though I lamented this fact bitterly at the time) and only managed to obtain one full-sized jar of the product. The quality of the cream is comparable to Tutti Dolci's other more luscious scents, as a delectable blend of sweet almond oil and a host of other skin-loving goodies smoothe, soften and leave skin feeling luxuriously pampered and cared-for. The texture and consistency are perfect: thick, whipped, and oh so lush. The cream absorbs very well without leaving any greasy residue behind. I have taken to using this product solely on my legs as I can't bear to have the horrid chemical smell too close to my face. I'll finish up the jar I have but will be giving the entire range of Creme Brulee products a wide berth in the future. Overall, though this product is of superb quality, and if not for the odious smell, I'd be weeping buckets over it having been discontinued.

All of the Bath and Body Works' Tutti Dolci souffles are super-moisturizing and makes skin so soft, so I would recommend anyone to try one. However, I ended up throwing this scent out half way through using it up. It smelled too sickening sweet and just wasn't the scent for me. Great quality, but I'm just not fond of the actual scent. It's okay though, because I enjoy some other Tutti Dolci souffles, especially Amaretti, Sugar Wafer, and Lemon Meringue.

This was a v-day gift from my hubby a few years back, it's a shame it's taken me this long to review it ;) and I hate that B&BW has discontinued it! The smell is absolutely yummy and it is super moisturizing without being too greasy. Perfect for those extra dry spots...elbows, knees, or anywhere you need extra moisture. I am an addict so I use it all over!

Got this today at TJ Maxx for $4.99. I was going to buy the other bottle, but decided to hold off. Mistake! I took a back with Aquolina Choco-whatever bath foam, and then used this when I got out. Now I smell kind of like diluted hot cocoa, but in a grown up way...make sense? This is really "comforting"--perfect before bed and not too overpowering. My skin feels soft, but not greasy. I'm going back to TJ Maxx tomorrow and buying the other bottle.

This is a line that is discontinued at Bath and Body Works. I purchased mine on Ebay express and stocked up on 3 of these as well as the matching body wash and edt. If I want a scent that is comforting, I use this. The souffle is thick but not greasy. The scent seems to become less potent after you have opened and re-opened the jar. I literally went through one jar in about a month and by the time it was done, I felt the scent wasn't as strong. Perhaps it was because my nose became more accustomed to the fragrance as I learned often happens. At any rate, I've had my second jar open for at least a month and am not using it everyday as before. I still enjoy the scent and would like to try others. Does anyone know if this is going to be sold somewhere other than B&BW or is it that once the stock is out, Tutti Dolci is no longer making it?

I really loved the creme brulee scent. It smells foody and yummy and sexy with a little spice in it. The texture of the "souffle" was really great too. It's so light but moisturizing. I didn't like that it came in a glass jar because I broke mine when it slipped out of my hands in the bathroom :( But it really does look nice on your vanity, and it is a fantastic cream with a gorgeous scent, so I still gave it 5 lippies!

This smells very sweet and sugary and the scent lasts a long time on my skin. The texture is very nice (whipped and light) and leaves my skin super soft. I would say this is a warm scent and very "foody". I love it after the creme brulee shower gel. I smell like cake.

See, this smells WAY too much like food to me. Don't get me wrong, I am the biggest fan of sweet foody scents, such as Pink Sugar, et cetera. However, while the afrementioned make you smell like a cupcake that men want to eat (heheh), the Tutti Dolci line just smells like you've been working all day as the dishwasher at a bakery. That's my opinion, anyway. But the souffles are nice. Soft, moisturizing, absorbs well. I'll use up this tub I got as a gift but by no means would I purchase it myself. I really do love the Mega Butter body butter though, from BBW's True Blue Spa line. UPDATE:: I did repurchase the souffle, but not in this scent. Instead I got the chocolate one, and it is wonderful! I also wish to correct myself that it isn't the whole line that smells exactly like food, just the Creme Brulee.

I bought this online so I didn't have a chance to smell it in the first place. If I had a chance,I wouldn't get this tho because at first I thought it smells nice but then I think it's sickly-really heavy,even heavier than the real creme brulee itself.The jar is huge but I mean HUGE!This means there's no way that I can swap it.It's sitting on my beauty closet for months.I hope there'll be a time in my life that I start liking the smell and actually use it.

I think this is one of the best body butter type products I have ever used. The texture is just like a dessert and it smells nice and warm, toasted golden sugar...the smell was perfect for me, and I intend to get all of Tutti Dolci's body souffle products in time, but this was my favorite scent. WOULD BUY TEN TIMES OVER <3<3<3<3<3

I liked this scent at first, but after while it got gaggy on me. I didn't really think it smelt much like creme brulee and will not buy this again, I did like the texture and moisture part of it so that is why it got 3 lippies. Other than that this is a thumbs down for me.

Ughhh, the Creme Brulee is way too strong for me. I smelled it in the store and thought it was nice at first, but after wearing it for about a week, it started to turn on me like a bad friend. It literally made me sick to my stomach after putting it on. I had to hurry and take a shower, and was still haunted by the scent. I had to take Pepto-Bismol and lie on my side. No joking. I honestly can't understand how someone could like this scent, but maybe that's just me.
Aside from the repulsive scent, this souffle really is nice and creamy. It is very moisturizing. If you can find a scent that mixes well with your skin, then by all means, indulge! With me, Tutti Dolci scents are either great or a complete miss. I cannot stress enough the importance of trying testers in the stores and wearing the scent for a whole day to see how it works out for you. I also took off some points for the price. $19 is a lot for souffle, but honestly, it does last a long time. Unfortunately, it may last long enough for you to get sick of the scent that you purchased. I stocked up on Apple Torta and swapped most of it away because I didn't want to get sick of it. The packaging is also not perfect. The glass containers are heavy and I'm always afraid that I'll drop and break them. Scooping the souffle out after it's running low can be a challenge sometimes.
Overall, great product, but bad packaging. High price. Some of the scents are stomach-wrenching, some are mouth-watering. Heed my warning: TRY THE TESTERS BEFORE SPLURGING!

This is one great alternative to your usual body creams. I was tired of the usual fruity-flowery body butters so I decided to finally get one from Tutti Dolci. It moisturizes well but still easy to apply as it is very creamy. It's not greasy at all. It lives up to its dessert-smell concept, I usually use this for night and I can still smell it when I wake up. I absolutely love Creme Brulee and this smells like the real thing. If you like sweet scents try anything from Tutti Dolci then but I recommend Creme Brulee. :)

this is ok, I loved how the lipgloss smelled but this is too strong for my taste UPDATE: ok, I've broken in the scent and this really softens and smooths out my skin so I am bumping the score from 2 to 5 :D

i have this in the tiramisu veneziano....normally i dont go for body care things that smell like food, but this one is wonderful. it moisturizes so well, and the scent isnt too strong, but still lets you know that it is there. and it smells almost like the real thing :o) fantastic for wintertime!
