Is this the tagline? Because only Moringa is a floral!
It is the description for all of them, at the moment…but can only assume they will change it. I think these just went up on the English-version website. The US website only shows Coconut so far. The German site has them all, but of course I cannot quote the German website.
I think it just doesn’t sound the same to say ‘Enjoy a fun fruity scent, all day long!’ No-one wants to feel that unsophisticated:)
I’m a huge fan of them since early teen because it’s so popular where I live as they have stores everywhere but I decided not to buy their cosemtics line but makeup brushes as most of them are excellent quality. Their fragrances are ok actually, some of them I’m so disappointed in & the sillage is almost zero, it doesn’t last at all on my skin & this problem I guess with so many people. The best from body shop along with makeup brushes are the body butters & their beauty tools items like slanted tweezers, cotton squares, cotton made socks, gloves & headband. Other than that specially the fragrances line is epic fail :/
I’ve liked several of the scents, including the recent Libertine, but yes, they don’t tend to be all day affairs
Sorry to say that Robin but the libertin line smells like an old lady, so old fashion & dated with full respect to old ladies & those who like libertin line. I believe fragrances is a matter of personal taste, I liked the regular white musk better, it’s kinda powdery like the libertin yes, but it doesn’t smell like bug spray or is it just me?
I dunno what happened to me as I’m so sensitive to any scent at all or years now, not like old days, I still adore perfumes specially fresh & clean ones so much.
Agreed on the fragrances, I don’t like them either. But then again, a lot of non-perfume heads don’t demand much from their perfume and indeed seem to like it better if it doesn’t last.
I like Body Shop’s line of Aloe products, and my daughter bought me the Moringa BB for Xmas. We both love it. I’d like to try the perfume but I’m not sure how successful it will be as a perfume.
I always liked the smell of the Shea BB too, so will give the scent a sniff.
For some reason the shea b.b. always turned sour on me and smelled lovely on others – but – the shea body oil does smell soft and beautiful! Also, the body oils are quicker and easier to use – for lazy people like me!
The moringa body oil intrigued me, so I will try that if it comes to my Body Shop. I like the White Musk scents and its variants, and the Whit eMusk body lotion seems to last well on me. It’s a perfect “I’m not worrying about scent today” or evening scent, in my mind (but then, I adore musk scents in general).
Hmmm, Satsuma is my fave in the line, not sure how I’ll feel about it in perfume, although I’ve thought about it. Will be fun to try these when they are around.
I had no idea they were new. They have been available at my local TBS for years, I guess mine is a test market? They are lovely. The Satsuma and Mango are excellent fresh scents, on which I always get compliments. Strawberry is not true to scent, coconut is just ok, and vanilla is as it has always been.
They have at one time or another done many of these in some form — EdP, perfume oil or body mist — but I think this is being presented as a new collection & the packaging does appear to be new (the vanilla bottle, for instance, doesn’t look like the old one). And did not think they’d ever done EdT in scents like Shea?
Oh, you’re right. The bottles look different than the ones I own. Mine are oblong, while these look more like the old collection that they discontinued. I’ve never seen these fragrances on the website before, though I can buy them in store.
I loved the shea body butter so much I bought the body mist one day. It’s such a random thing. It doesn’t smell as nice on me as the body butter though. Somehow it seems tinny to me. We’ll see how the EDT is.
I love the Pink Grapefruit body wash, but I’m not sure that I’d love it as anything more permanent than a few minutes of sudsy shower fun. Still, I’d give the fragrance a shot. Could be a good thing to stick in the fridge for hot summer days/nights.
I love Satsuma, and so does my hubby. I was just in our local B.S. but didn’t see them. Will have to take a more detailed look next time I’m around the mall.
They started selling the body mists (though not all 8) last summer in my country. I got coconut and shea, and found the vanilla on eBay. I wonder if they will sell the EDT here too.
The body mists are just what they are, not lasting, but hey, they smell nice.
Satsuma is nice, an orange scent.
