I have a travel size lotion in Sweet Pea. Yes, the scent is strong... but it's very fresh. It's not a cloying, overly sweet scent. It just smells like fresh, dewy flowers. The lotion itself is very moisturizing and the travel size bottle is super convenient to carry around in my purse.

I read in magazines, heard from friends, and read reviews that BBW Sweet Pea lotion is the best. I have to disagree completely. Personally, this lotion is way to overpowering and has a strong floral scent.
I don't like to waste the things I bought, so I'm glad I only got a travel size. I just don't understand all the hype about this lotion. It does smell very girly and pretty, but I feel like a child that put on way too much perfume and this is only used on my hands! Even when I use a small amount, this thing gives me a headache from the smell!
If you're someone that's curious about this lotion, save your money, it is not worth it. Unless you're someone that likes strong floral and sweet scented lotion, this is for you. But other than that, don't waste your money.

This made me break out on my arm.. now I can't get rid of the rash. It's nice for the hands but not for the body. Smells really nice but I miss the more berry scent it had, now it's too floral. Great product just didn't work for me.

Bath and Body Works lotions and creams are wonderful. They are light yet creamy, not greasy, easily absorbed, moisturise well AND smell awesome. (There are certain scents that I don't like but that's a personal preference). Sweet Pea is one of my favourite collections. Its a lovly blend of floral and fruity notes and the fragrance really lingers long.

This lotion smell absolutely delightful! The moisturizer itself is not greasy at all. BBW is always expensive in my eyes, but this was a nice product.

Bath&BodyWorks' Sweet Pea Body Lotion is supposed to smell like a "fruity floral scent that evokes the intoxicating, floral infused breezes of the Mediterranean." Sweet Pea is a Bath&BodyWorks Classic, and my personal favorite as well, even though I had a recent issue with it. Bath&BodyWorks are a cruelty free company that makes their products in the USA. Bath&BodyWorks claims that their lotions are the best daily moisturizer, because their non-greasy formula contains vitamin E, shea butter, and jojoba oil. This is my first full size Bath&BodyWorks product in a long time. I got it for free with a coupon, but full sized body lotions usually retail for $11. Great score, amirite?
Packaging for the full sized body lotions is slightly different from the travel size ones that I'm used to. The cap, instead of plastic, is metal, and the curvy bottle, while shaped the same, is made of a slightly sturdier plastic.
Sweet Pea's label is beautiful, it's what originally drew me to the scent. A bright pink and orange flower against a bright green background. I don't know what it is exactly, but something about Sweet Pea's imagery appeals to me so much.
Bath&BodyWorks lists Sweet Pea's scent notes as Sweet Pea Petals, Watery Pear, Freesia, Fresh Raspberries, and Musk. I've gone into detail about Sweet Pea's scent in my reviews for the shower gel, and fine fragrance mist, so I won't keep repeating myself. I will say that, unlike the new fine fragrance mist, this is the Sweet Pea I fell in love with. I'm so glad to say that it's not the sugary, musky, heavy scent that I experienced with the new body spray. It's back to it's old, light, fruity, happy self, matching the shower gel and pocket bac perfectly.
Sweet Pea's fruity, floral, lightness makes it seem like a young scent to me. I feel like it's a scent I'll eventually outgrow (if Bath&BodyWorks doesn't discontinue it first). Perhaps I'll move on to a fruity floral, but more sophisticated scent, like Paris Amour. But that won't be for a while. I'm still fascinated by Sweet Pea.
Sweet Pea's body lotion formula isn't any different from the norm. White, thin, non-greasy, quick to absorb. This lotion leaves my skin feeling perfectly moisturized, with just enough of the scent left lingering behind for a couple hours, longer if I layer this with the shower gel. A good, solid lotion that never disappoints. Bath&BodyWorks have this down to a science.
I'm glad I finally got a full size of Sweet Pea's body lotion. I'd blow through the travel size. I definitely recommend any Sweet Pea product (except the fine fragrance mist).It's a beautiful, fun scent with beautiful, fun packaging. It's feminine, but still playful, and has a slight sour note to it that makes it unique. I'll likely repurchase a full size of both the body lotion and shower gel next time I can score a deal on them.

Sweet pea is very strong smelling at first then it fades. I think dark kiss, warm vanilla sugar and cherry blossom lotions have good lasting power. Sweet pea is a waste of money n now I'm stuck with the edt spray because I used quite a bit of it having to keep spraying to get it to last and I just bought it 2 weeks ago and I have a mini lotion that I've used but my full size bottle of the sweet pea lotion is going back to b&bw to exchange for another bottle of dark kiss that kind of lotion lasts I put dark kiss on before bed and it kept waking me up I was smelling it all night into the next day! Dark kiss is waaaay better then this sweet pea stuff!

I remember when everyone used this lotion. I love the smell, but it can become overpowering. It's very moisturizing as well. I haven't used this lotion in a while, but I would buy this again.

I really loved this fragrance when I tried the hand soap, but when I tried the lotion I was disappointed. When you first put it on it is a light sweet lovely floral scent, but within an hour, I couldn't smell the lotion at all. Even while applying it I found there wasn't much scent to it. Out of all the lotions of B&BW's I have tried this has the worst staying power. Maybe it is just my body chemistry but it just doesn't do much for me.

Sweet Pea is one of those scents that is floral and a little sweet at the same time. I have the travel size of this because I wanted to see how the lotion was, because I have the PocketBac in the Sweet Pea scent as well. The scent is definitely floral, but a little too floral for my liking.

Some say this is too sweet and I agree....for about the first 5 minutes. Then, this morphs into a fresh, clean floral. Nice for Spring. Pretty color, too. I think this is a great "base" lotion for those that like floral fragrances and want to layer. It does not last very long

Sweet Pea is very girly! I love that the color is Pink too! Sweet Pea petals blended with watery pears, freesia, fresh raspberry, and soft delicate musk. A very nice lotion and I can't wait to pair sweet pea with one of my 9 new fragrance mist's that I bought from their huge sale online.
My Sweet Pea Lotion came in a gift set from a year ago. 12oz hand/body lotion bottle with a pump and a 12oz Hand soap inside a silver caddy. I do plan to buy sweet pea lotion again and maybe try the fragrance mist but for now I need to use up my 8 other lotions from bath and body works!

Not too bad from a lot of their other scents, just a bit TOO much! Too much floral! And it's strong! I also thought it was a bit too sweet. It is a bit pretty though, just not for me, as I prefer softer florals.

Fine for people who like the smell of flowers... but I like the sweeter scent of sweet pea. This was wayyyy too floral for me.

I love this scent. It's very sweet. It doesn't feel greasy, though i advise not to apply in a small classroom, you may give your fellow teachers and students a headache XD

EDIT
BBW doesn't have the scents the same for each product of the same scent line

smells good but I can only use it after my shower, using it in the daytime gives me a headache. It moisturizes well, and absorbs quickly. I will rate it a 3 because the scent is nice, but wayy to strong for everyday wear.

I love some of Bath and Body Works lotions! This one goes on smooth, doesn't leave a residue, and it smells delicious! It's the scent of the original, award winning sweet pea, a fruity floral scent, I like it because it's a fruity, sweet scent. I like a variety of scents that I can change out daily, and I like this one because it's a great wake me up scent, and a sweet girly scent. I got in in a great deal mix and match buy 3 get 2 free! So I got 5 products for $32. They usually have good deals like that.
