Smells good enough to eat! Rich and creamy at a bargain price. I only wish mineral oil wasn't so high on the ingredients list.

This is my favorite lotion of all time. It does smell like chocolate but that slowly fades into a nice sweet scent. It isn't over powering at all. I don't even eat chocolate (at all) and I still like it.

It absorbs very fast and it hasn't stained any of my towels, ect.ect.

This has never broken me out. When I use it, it gives me that oh-so-soft feeling. I've had people go "You're skin is so soft! You smell so good," just because of this lotion. I say try it and if you don't like it, or it doesn't work for you, toss it. Or give it to me :P It's cheap enough to try it once. Or twice. ;)

This lotion is a life-saver, especially in the winter. It does a fantastic job of moisturizing my skin, but it's not greasy. It absorbs quickly and the scent is yummy.

The lotion works really well; I've got a bottle at home and a tube in my desk at work. It definitely keeps my hands soft and smooth during the day and before bed. I prefer the tube packaging over the bottle, as it's tough to get at the lotion that's at the bottom of the bottle.

I don't know if I would buy this again. I went through it really fast and I think I made myself sick of it. It smelled good to me at first -- like Nestle Quik, but after a while, it smelled bitter to me. It moisturizes really well, although it can feel sticky. I also don't like the yellow coloring. It stained some of my towels.

Also, I wish Palmer's products had a more consistent scent. Some of them smell like chocolate. Some smell like cocoa. Some smell like vanilla. Some smell like brown sugar. What's the deal?

I feel sort of guilty bumping this off the top, but I really can't stand the scent of this. It makes me think of hot chocolate powder which in theory I should like, but it's just majorly blech to me. It's pretty long lasting which is a bonus if you like the scent, but every time I tried to wear it, I felt sort of nauseated whenever I caught a whiff. It's ok as a lotion though - moisturizes nicely, and not at all greasy.

I LOVE this product!!!! I've been searching for a belly cream that would help prevent stretch marks. Although I've tried a few, this is the only one that meets all my criteria. Smells great, spreads well, and actually soaks in! A lot of the other ones I tried took forever to soak, if they did at all. And so far, no new stretch marks!!!

This is good, cheap stuff that WORKS. A huge bottle is only a few dollars, and the lotion is thick yet absorbs easily. I use it on my feet to keep them soft, and it works really well. I don't really like the scent though - it smells chocolatey-plasticky, I would prefer a lighter and fruitier scent.

This stuff is great! Smooths marks (hello, stretchmarks!), smells great, and makes my skin soft...plus, it's cheap! Truly a great product.

My favorite, hands down. Smells like I just got off the beach and it moisturizes like nothing else. Even softens those rough, stocking-ripping heels in the winter. Its so inexpensive I can save my $$ for my high-end lipstick addiction

This is EXACTLY the lotion I've been looking for! I've tried many cocoa butter lotions in my quest to find one that smells like chocolate and this takes the (chocolate) cake! When I wear it, my boyfriend tells me I smell like brownies. It moisturizes like crazy, leaving my skin soft and smooth. Not only that, it's CHEAP! This is definitely a new staple for me.

YUM! Smells like chocolate. This is the Palmer's Cocoa butter formula in the tub container. I've been using this on my elbows and knees and sometimes on my hands although it is quite greasy. This stuff does make skin super soft and smells delish!

I cannot believe it took me so long to find this wonderful, can't live without it product. People are always commenting on how "yummy" I smell! I have a problem with terrible winter dry skin and this has taken care of this problem better than any high-priced item I have tried...and at a substantial savings. Haven't tried it yet? You can find samples for under a buck at most discount stores and pharmacies!

I love this smell!!! I can't stop applying and reapplying, so I end up with dried lotion flakes all over my body. It apparently does not absorb into the skin but just sits there. That's why it peels off!! Still, I like it because of the smell. SO YUMMY!!!

What's not to like about this? I keep a small tube in my car for my hands. Smells wonderful, like cocoa.

This is an excellent moisturizer, it's quickly absorbed by the skin leaving it feeling smooth. Smells very nice, like vanilla, but not too overpowering. This is a great product, but I wish they'd make the packaging a bit more sophisticated. Price-wise, v. good so I guess I can't complain.

Smells like chocolate milkshakes, and absorps easily into dry skin. I'll try this after a shower but I think I'm going to love it!

Let me just say, that this is one of the BEST things I've found from this board. This lotion is the best! It smells like chocolate, but not too sweet or too strong. Has great staying power too. I ususally use Demeter's Brownie or Graham Cracker spray with it. It's sooo moisturizing and extrememly cheap! The only thing I'm upset about is not finding it sooner!
