This body lotion reminds me of Miller Harris Citron Citron. I remember years ago staying at a hotel and the Miller Harris line of shampoo, conditioner and body lotion Citron Citron was provided by the hotel. I became hooked on the product and even resorted to buying it on ebay since I was unable to find it here in Canada where I live. Bath and Body Work's White Citrus is a very similar scent and I feel it's a good substitution to the Miller Harris lotion.
White Citrus smells clean and fresh and it's one of my favourite body lotions in the Bath and Body Works line.

It is not a personal favorite, but it is a good scent for people starting out with fragrances. It is gender neutral and smells very fresh and pleasant.

Try not to apply too much though, because it IS a B&BW product and can easily become overpowering and annoying.

Not a smell that I personally will wear, but I love smelling it on other people. I like to give it as a gift to people I am not really sure of their preferences.

Easy to use as a gift. Not an extremely unique scent. Most people will be fine with it. It is not something that you either hate or love, and not something you have to get used to.

If unsure, just try smelling it in stores. The body spray smells a bit too artificial though, so if you mind those details, I would recommend the lotion.

I love this bright, clean and refreshing citrus scent! I have the body wash and body butter and love how I can enjoy the heavenly scent at night after my bath but by morning the scent has faded and doesn't clash with my perfume. If you like citrus scents, you will love this.

This is kinda of a love-hate lotion for me. It has a very strong citrus smell which I don't really like at first, but when it starts to fade as I work it in my skin, it smells very pleasant. I would like this lotion better if it was lighter without too much citrus tones.
It also very fresh and clean smelling when you first open the bottle, this aspect is what I adore in lotions and perfumes. It smells like I just took a shower....oh, now I want to try their shower gel...
Anyway, I would buy this again for my mom since she likes this scent, but for myself? I'm not quite sure. If I want to use it, I'll probably steal my mom's.

White Citrus is my favorite scent from Bath and Body Works. It is so citrusy, and it smells awesome! I have the mini lotion, travel-size fragrance mist, regular size fragrance mist, mini shower gel, and foaming hand soap! I love it sooo much! I would very much recommend it!

Mine is the body butter. The scent is not too bad. Not one of my favorites but I don't hate it either. Smells quiet fresh. The butter however fell below expectations. Not as moisturizing as I would have liked.

This scent is so fresh, light and citrusy. A nice summer scent for sure! I've only used the lotion, and I absolutely love it. Look around for sales and you can usually get these lotions super cheap.

I like this scent. It's very fresh and citrus-y and I find it is not too heavy. I have the body spray in this, and it's a very clean smell, and it is good if you like light, fruity smells. It's not my absolute favorite, but I probably will get this in an anti-bacterial hand gel as well.

I LOVE this smell!!! So fun and summery, it makes me happy. People comment on it a lot. I have the spray and the antibacterial gel, and I might get the EDT at some point. Highly recommend it if you want something light and summery that makes you feel like YOU are wearing the perfume and not the other way around!

I have the body wash and the body spray for this, and I really like it! The body wash foams nicely and leaves a really nice, refreshing scent. Definitely a mix of floral and citrus, and it smells very crisp and clean. I knocked off a lippy because I think the body spray is a bit too strong for me...but I'll most likely be buying the body wash & lotion again.

Love this.I love the scent "White Citrus" - which to me smells like a "geen" citrus - a light grassy/lemon-orange-grapefruit (general citrus) with a bamboo note and a soapy dry-down.


The lotionl is very good, but the body cream (butter) is even better - I like the thicker consistency.

To me, this smells clean and light. I'm very picky about fragrance and "perfumey" smells- I never really wear them anyway. Luckily, this one smells nice but the smell vanishes pretty quickly anyway, so I'm not worried about smelling strongly like "white citrus" all day. I woudlnt get it again, though, as the moisturizing-ness with this (as with all Bath and Body products, I've noticed) is unimpressive. I've used drugstore lotions that moisturize better at a cheaper price.

I find it funny how almost everybody says this is light or faint. My housemate uses this and I can smell it from another floor! In my experience, all bbw scents have this characteristic (or I may just be very sensitive) but I still use their other scents-- lightly.


Scent wise it is not my favorite. This may be because I am not a fan of citrus or that it really is a sharp scent. There are florals to round it out but it still kinda reminds me of household cleaners. As someone else said, I see this as a soap scent and not a whole body scent.

This is, much like the rest of BBW's line, a very simple fragrance. There's not much complexity here, but it's beautiful in its cleanliness, crispness, and freshness. It calls to mind lemon and grapefruit, but it's not sharp; rather, it's soft and rounded and subtle. I love wearing this with my favorite fragrances - Child and Chanel Cristalle Eau Verte - as it doesn't overpower.

Great moisture, great scent, pretty bottle. It's definitely a repurchase for me! But if you're not into the citrusy/floral scents then you probably won't like this.

I bought White Citrus unsniffed and based my decision from the reviews here. I wasn't disappointed with the scent. I'm actually not into citrusy fragrances, but i reach for them on summer. But this one is light and crisp, and Thank God it's not sharp like BBW Rainkissed Leaves which makes me sneeze a lot when I spray it. WC is perfectly balanced citrus scent and body spray lingers on my skin for long time.
