The product moisturizes well compared to the other body butters in the Korres line. It is a little thicker than the consistency of lotion and will have to be rubbed into the skin. A little goes a long way. The scent is not desirable and reminds me of plastic (which dissipates fairly quickly). I would not repurchase this scent again.

I hate the smell of yogurt, especially after I have eaten it and the container emanates that sour smell... yuck. But I love Korres body butters, so I was anxious to try this, smell unsmelled. And it did not disappoint. It doesn't smell like yogurt, but it's hard to describe what exactly it does smell like. It has a mild, lotion-y scent but with a little zing, kind of tangy... it is unique, moisturizing, and the scent is really growing on me.

I got hooked on the smell of this stuff when I got a sample of the yogurt facial mask. It's very hard to describe how it smells..it's a sweet (but not overly sweet) yet I feel like there's a smidgen, barely noticeable hint of cinnamon in there somewhere too. I really like this..smells so warm and comforting, though most definitely nothing like yogurt! Overall it's very lightweight yet moisturizing, but by no means is this a heavy duty moisturizer in my opinion. It helps take some of the super dryness I get in my hands during the winter away, but my poor cuticles still remain a bit rough. :( But overall I'm very pleased, it sinks in quickly and does not leave any icky sticky residue feeling behind which I like. The smell is not very offensive or strong which is a plus as well. :D

This stuff is amazing for my skin. My skin is very dry and it is no easy feat to quench the dryness. But this product moisturizes it beautifully. I only need a littke bit for my skin to feel and look moisturized. I'm not sure what it smells like. It's kind of sweet and kind of spicy at the same time. Not at all what yoghurt smells like. Whatever the scent is supposed to be I love it. The ingredients are excellent, as is typical with Korres. The only negative thing I have to say about this product is that the price is pretty steep, which might keep me from getting it again once I run out.

This is a fabulous body moisturizer. It's great for dry skin like mine, but it absorbs quickly. It was great to banish the tiny bumps that appear in my tighs some days after waxing. I like the smell, altough it doesn't smell like yogurt at all.

Nice, light bodied body butter. Mild scent, good moisturizing without all of the greasy residue you generally get. It really seems to get in there and smooth your skin, unlike some creams that leave your skin as flaky and gross as they found it. The price is a sticking point, but I could still see buying it in a gift pack or the occasional splurge.

Great body butter, nice and thick but not sticky. Gives you a great glow afterwards, nice scent which isnt too strong and doesnt linger.

Like I suspect many recent reviewers of Korres products of late, I scored this at TJ Maxx for 5 USD (along with a whole lot of other Korres products). I'm still giving it a 5 for price though, because it sells for a lot of money at full retail for only a 5 oz bottle. Best pump I've ever used, though!

I like this much better than the Guava version, mainly due to the lack of a powerful scent. I give it only a 4 as a moisturizer, though, because its not a particularly long lasting moisturizer, and needs to be thinned a bit with water for easy application. I'd rather see it sold in a bigger bottle at about the consistency of their Yoghurt Cooling Gel, which is IMO the perfect consistency for a moisturizer.

Love it, but will have to think twice about repurchasing when my two bottles run out, due to the price. I'll probably get it anyway, though, because now that TJ Maxx has gotten me hooked on Korres, I don't know if I'll be able to give up the habit! In the last two weeks, I've picked up about 250 USD worth of Korres products at TJ Maxx for about 50 USD, and they have made a Korres believer out of me.

I got this super cheap at TJ Maxx for $4.99 ( vs retail of $21 ). I got in the 5.07oz pump tube and really like it. Would I pay full price? Maybe, it's hard for me to pay retail when I get it so cheap. It's works really well for my dry skin- I like the scent- it's a really mild almost powdery/typical lotiony scent reminds me of the L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream. I can use this and other perfumes with out clashing.

While yogurt is not my favorite of the Korres line of body butters, I am very surprised at some of the reviews. This one is the mildest of the scents I've tried( fig, quince, guava). I like it on days where I don't want different scents to "clash".
Love the guava and fig scented ones. Korres body butters are high quality...they're the only body butters I would pay full price for!

I did not care for the fragrance of this product. It is a light fragrance, but not for me. It does an ok job of moisturizing, but I would not repurchase because I do not like the scent.

I like the scent of this as it reminds me of a vague childhood memory. It isn't overpowering which I like. It is very very rich, and takes a while to be rubbed in. So I just use it straight after a bath. And I suspect it has given me one or two zits on my arm, but it works fab on the legs!! Andf I had a large patch of dry flaking skin just above both elbows and that's all gone now after I've used this for a week. No more crepey skin for summer! It fixed my yucky dry skin caused by winter just in time!

EDIT: THIS GAVE ME BIG UGLY ZITS ON MY ARMS AND CHEST! ARGH!!!!

Update: Everytime I use these body butters I seem to get a few clogged pores on my upper arms and chest. I don't get those much anymore at the ripe old age of 50 so I think it has to be due to this cream. I need rich but non-comodigenic creams, I guess.


I love these body butters. I appreciate the packaging very much too--great pump so you don't have body butter all over your vanity, clothes, etc as when applying from the usual bb tubs.

This body butter is very moisturizing which is what I was searching for in the dry static-y heat of winter. Yes, you do have to rub these in a little longer but I usually apply when my skin is damp so that helps some. If you have very dry skin like I do you'll probably find that you have to reapply after all night so these won't be a one-shot application(still looking for that lotion that hydrates for 24 hours without my skin again feeling dry).

The yogurt fragrance is very light. At first I was put off by the almost rancid smell of this butter at first application but then the soft fragrance appeared as I rubbed in the thick cream. I also bought fig & quince and quinceis the only one I'm not sure of because the fragrance is sort of coconutty and I'm not a fan.

This is lovely, and is probably my favourite out of the 3 Korres body butters. The scent is subtle, and it is very mositurising. It takes a while to massage in tho.

This thick body butter is lovely, i already am using the Yoghurt face cream with great results and as i love the face cream scent, i thought i'd like this as well. It has a nice, non-chemical scent, very normal and natural, but still mild enough that you can wear your own fragrance and not get a wierd hybrid smell as a result. It moisturizes very well, and definitely takes the itch out of sunburn. I like the sealed pump packaging and the expiration date, its nice to know i'm not slathering my body in synthetic chemicals and preservatives. All in all, the price is a bit $$ but a little goes a long way and its worth it for the great quality/scent. Korres products really sink in to my skin and dont leave an odd greasy film like most moisturizers.

Korres body butters are amazing but the Yoghurt version is my least favourite because of the scent. Guava and Quince are my favourite - they are HGs!

There are many things I love about this moisturizer - it's hygeniec pump bottle, its lack of artificial fragrance and its relatively small price tag (less than $20!) It is very thick and moisturizes very well. I prefer it to the other Korres body butters. I also find it very soothing on my dry legs. However, you do have to rub it in a little because the yogurt tends to sit on top of the skin. I'm also not a huge fan of the smell. But overall it's an excellent product I would repurchase.
