This is a very nice body wash and shampoo. It comes out of the bottle rather thin, but lathers quite well even with a washcloth (as opposed to a of a pouf). The wash doesn't appear to be too harsh as it hasn't negatively affected my skin- which most highly perfumed products tend to do. I've used this as a shampoo as well and have been rather pleased. The shampoo leaves my hair quite shiny with some body. However, I would not use this as a shampoo on my hair more than twice a week since I can see how this could be drying to hair if used daily. Although the scent is rather strong in the shower, it does not linger much on my skin or hair. Any lotion I apply after a shower completely covers up whatever scent was left on my skin. My hair smells very slightly of buttery vanilla when it first dries, but that scent fades quickly as well. Overall, this is a very nice product.

Maybe my bottle is flawed but I think this stuff smells awful! My sister tried this also ( I let her have it) and she thought it smelled funky too. Not for me. Smells like rotten pumpkin pie. EWW!

I love this stuff. I used it today as shower gel and shampoo. It smells great, and it seems to work really well. I wouldn't use it as an everyday item, but it does smell really good.

Loved this body wash so much, I went and bought the body cream. Another great holiday scent, why aren't there more products with this fragrance?

I just bought this product yesterday and I love it! It smells like gingerbread and I think it is yummy! I will buy this product again. I just use it as a body wash.

Smells really good but I don't know if it smells exactly like gingerbread. Smell fades the fastest out of these that I've tried.

This was given to me as a gift in the 3 piece set, with Hot Chocolate and Eggnog. This is by far my favorite scent of the three. It smells like fresh, homemade Gingerbread complete with cinnamin, brown sugar and nutmeg. I love using it in the morning as a "wake-up call." I'm taking off one lippie for the shampoo use. It's really to drying for my hair. Can't wait to see this come back this winter.

I am so in love with this!! It smells just like freshly baked gingerbread; sooo delicious. At $14 for 16oz, it is two bucks cheaper than Philosophy, and does just as well of a job. Why oh why can't BBW carry this year round?!?!

Totally delicious and true gingerbread scent, not too sweet and not too spicy. The consistency is identical to Philosophy's 3 in 1s so it lathers just as well, and it's actually cheaper ($14 for 16 oz.). The scent doesn't linger but I never expect shower gel scents not to fade, so that's fine. I only wish BBW would make these available year-round and come out with matching body butters!

This is a great body wash! I think it's even better than Philosophy's versions. The gingerbread smell is right on target, and it's priced well too. I like the push down cap better than Philosophy's flip caps. I really hope Bath & Body Works comes out with more of these in the future!

This has the best, most authentic gingerbread scent I have smelled in a 3-in-1 product. You smell lots of clove and molasses in this. It's a hit since I got the next to last one in the store tonight. Another store was sold out last week. The wash itself is nice and creamy with a consistency much like their TBS Better Lather Than Never shower cream. A 16 oz. bottle retails for $14.

Bath and Body Works took Philosophy's 3-in-1s and ran with them!
Holiday Sweets are definitely the best dessert-scented hair and body washes I have come across. They make my hair softer and shinier than any high-end shampoo and I love the true foody scents. Comfort beauty at its best! *UPDATE* Went back to BBW today to stock up on these, but they only had Eggnog left - lots, but no Gingerbread or Hot Chocolate. I was told they won't be getting any more Holiday Sweets, but there is a possibility that they will have more 3-in1s in the future. BBW and VS do not test on animals.

Yum! This is what I wanted Philosophy's Gingerbread Man to be (I ended up loving that one, but it does not smell like gingerbread--it's gingerale). Anyway, this one smells just like the real thing! It's so delicious--imagine a pan of warm gingerbread straight from the oven. That's what this smells like. Love the cute packaging too. Big thumbs up.
