This is hands down my absolute favourite Bath and Body Works scent! Pink Grapefruit is the quintessential summer scent: a luscious blend of yup, you guessed it, pink grapefruit, sweet valencia orange, clementine, white woods and musk. Fun and flirtatious with a little sophisticated edge, just breathtaking! This scent has captivated me so much that I own it in body cream, body splash and EDT forms. I get heaps of compliment when I wear this cream layered with the splash or EDT, and the scents lasts for hours and hours after application! Talk about good value for money!
Because I live outside of the US, I buy most of my BBW products in bulk off Ebay so I can't really attest to how cost-effective a single tube of this cream is. But in terms of quality, it really can't be beat! All BBW creams I've tried are uncomparable in terms of their moisturizing properties and how soft and glowing they leave my skin, not to mention deliciously fragranced! This product contains skin-pampering oils of avocado and sweet almond for intensive nourishing benefit while fruit enzymes of pineapple and papaya help smooth and soften rough patches. My knees and elbows just soak up this cream and are left silky-soft to the touch afterwards. Thick and luscious, this cream provides just the right amount of greaseless moisture to my skin, leaving it supple and healthy.
My only gripe with the packaging of these creams is that I have to cut the tube in half as it nears it finish to get the remaining product out. This way, I manage to salvage at least 5-6 days more use out of the cream that remains. A 8 fl oz tube of this cream lasts me about a month on average, taking into account AM and PM use. Nothing perks me up more than slathering on this divine stuff after a warm soothing shower. Morning or night, Pink Grapefruit always puts a smile on my face and a bounce in my step. Just love it :)
Have already repurchased several times and in all likelihood will continue to do so for as long as Ebay sellers stock it. Highly recommended to anyone who appreciates bright, vibrant scents with decent staying power!

I hear that it has been discontinued.
I love this scent! The scent of citrus doesn't last very long for me, but I find other people can still smell it a while after I've put some on. I have yet to find another grapefruit-scented lotion that smells as great as this one without the synthetic/chemical-ly notes.

I love this! It's the perfect summer day smell. This is my all time favorite BBW scent to wear all summer long. HG BBW lotion during the spring and summer months for sure. I hope to always own a bottle of this!

All I can say is that this seriously smells like real grapefruits- nothing synthetic here. If you want a natural smelling citrus fragrance try this out, and really, the price can't be beat

I just love Bath and Body Works' body creams, because I get dry skin easily so the moisturizing lotion isn't heavy enough for me, and this is the perfect thickness, because the body butters are a bit too rich in my opinion.
Pink Grapefruit is no exception! This is a very citrusy scent, but I love it. I am usually not fond of citrusy scents that are too orangey, so I decided to give Pink Grapefruit a try and it smells delicous! It is very juicy smelling, and I think it is fabbbulous! :) would definitely repurchase.

Picked this up at the semi-annual sale. I usually use Sweet Pea, but this is an instant change, similar to the Mango mandarin! Whereas Sweet Pea is sweet and flowery, this one is tart, tangy, and an instant eye-opener! I love it!

This is a great lotion, and it smells super amazing! it's perfect for summer, and it adds a nice scent to you. The scent does stay for awhile, but I doubt people would notice. Still, its worth the buy.

This smelled like the body wash (straight up grapefruit) and EDT in the tube, but on my skin smelled much more like sweet oranges. The musk note is much more prominent in the lotion, too. It's OK. It's not really what I was looking for, so I wouldn't rebuy.

Hate to be the dissenter here, but... I bought the body butter and used it for the first time today. I'm a big fan of citrus-y bath & body products that have a true citrus scent. (Think Bliss Lemon & Sage or Korres Basil Lemon: lemon, verbena, tangerine, mandarin, grapefruit, you name it -- it's a mild addiction & the only bath product scent I buy/use). The Pink Grapefruit smelled yummy and grapefruity at the store, but when I used it it was gaggy-sweet, like cotton candy. I nearly got back in the shower to wash it off. I do like the quality of the B&BW body butters (kind of dry on the application, but moisturize really nicely), I just object (HIGHLY) to the scent. I should add that I often have this problem, where lotion smells good in the container, but I get an off and unexpected scent when I apply it. HTH

After all the snow and ice this is the perfect pure sunshine scent to make me think happy thoughts and get me through until spring is finally here. I got the body cream and the shower gel and both smell realllly nice , the scent lasts a decent amount of time too, I may have to get the perfume or the body splash. They have shampoo and conditioner as well but I haven't gotten that far yet.

This smells amazing and contains shea butter to moisturize. I bought this on sale for 8 dollars and was really happy. Its a nice summery scent that isn't over-whelming and lasts for a decent time. I wore it before going to bed and could still smell it the next morning. I think I'll purchase the body splash soon to accompany it.

For some reason, this smelled better than the Pink Grapefruit body splash, so I gave this a 5 instead of a 4 like the splash. They're both still very nice, though.

I love this BBW scent!! It's so juicy and smells great! I have gotten tons on compliments whenever I wear this.. I need to get the body splash next! Paid $10 which is not bad considering how much you get in the 8 oz. tube. Also has notes of valencia orange, clementine, white woods and soft musk. It smells sooo amazing!! I love keeping the tube of cream around so I can apply it to my hands when they are dry. I will most definitely repurchase this product!!
