I absolutely love the smell. It's so random and I dont think it was intentional but it smells like popcorn and it's literally like a guilty pleasure to shower with it. It's also super moisturizing and pH balanced.
Smells so awful
I really wanted to like this body wash, especially with glycerin so high on the ingredients list, but it smells SO, SO bad. I can't place it exactly, but it's kinda like rotten fruit left in the sun or a trash can for days on end. It's awful. Spent half my shower and the rest of the night gagging from the smell left on my skin.
