Notice that I stated my husband really enjoys this product. I think the scents at Bath and Body Works for the different products they have available is so specific to each person's liking. Good marketing ploy! That being said, I do not care for the scent of this product and do not personally like to use it unless we are out of my favorite washes. I think the scent is too strong out of the bottle. I am also not a huge fan of vanilla at all. The product does cleanse well, though. I think the gel is a good product other than the smell. It lathers on a pouf very well and tends to cleanse without drying your skin, even with daily use. Effectiveness The product itself as a cleanser is a good balance of cleansing without being too harsh and drying for daily use. I like to use it best with a pouf. The foam is great and gives me the impression that it is cleansing my body better. I am a sucker for the foam. I cannot really think of any downsides as to the effectiveness of the product. Scent My husband likes it. I do not. I will call this as a satisfactory scent for him, but not for myself. I think it's too strong.

I have long loved the delicious and sultry scent of vanilla, and Bath and Body Works really took a classic scent to a whole new level with their Warm Vanilla Sugar line. As the name implies, it is warm and has a nice depth to it; there's a reason it's part of their signature collection. It's a perfect scent for a shower gel. Bath and Body Works shower gels' scents don't linger as long as those of their lotions, hand sanitizers, or hand soaps, so you don't need to worry about smelling too perfume-y after you get out of the shower. The shower gel itself isn't anything special--it works into a nice lather like nearly any other shower gel--but the scent makes it special. If you time your purchase right, you can get several shower gels (or a combination of other products) for about half the retail price during one of their specials that come around several times a year. I recommend this shower gel.

I ended up trying this product after I saw it in a beauty magazine's best of reader awards. I can't remember which magazine it was, but it had won for almost three or so years in a row so I knew I had to try it! I have to say that the name explains the scent perfectly! I love to use this shower gel in the winter. I prefer for lighter, more floral scents in the summer so that's when I switch to a lighter scent like Bath & Body Works sweet pea shower gel. I felt like this shower gel didn't moisturize well and left my skin feeling sort of dry. So I ended up buying the accompanying lotion and I leave it in them shower to apply right after I'm done. I have to say that the product itself is only okay while the scent itself is amazing. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who has really sensitive or dry skin, but it is good for washing off after a really rough workout or hot day. This soap also lathers well so you will have no shortage of bubbles.

I absolutely love the Bath and Body Works Shower Gel line and Warm Vanilla Sugar is one of my favorite scents. It works into a great lather and it lasts forever because it lathers so well and you don't need to use much. It keeps my skin smooth and doesn't dry it out but never leaves me feeling like I'm not totally clean. It's nice to be able to layer the scent with all the different scents. I LOVE this fragrance during the winter and when it's cold outside. The shower gel leaves a relatively strong scent and if you layer it with some lotion, that's really all the fragrance you need. I always stock up on Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Shower Gel whenever I go up to Bath and Body Works when they have a sale. The scent smells just as strong months later. This is a pretty strong, long lasting scent that smells a lot like a sugar cookie. This scent is really perfect for the winter months and is great if you don't want to use a lot of other fragrances. Since they make all the coordinating fragrances you can get a lot of scent by layering...I highly recommend this product! You can't beat the smell, lather and price!

When I make a trip to the mall, I always make sure that I stop in the Bath & Body Works store. I just love the aroma I get when I first set foot inside. There are also tester bottles so you can try out the different fragrances. I spend many minutes trying all the frangrances, especially the new scents of which there are always many. Some scents I love, some are so-so, and some I really do not like. The Bath & Body Works vanilla sugar is one I really love. It has that wonderfully sweet aroma that reminds me of baking cookies. I love the shower gel in the vanilla sugar fragrance. Just a small amount gives me all the lather I need to take a luxurious shower. It leaves my skin soft and silky and the fragrance lingers for a very long time. I think this vanilla sugar scent is at the top of my list of the ones I really like. I would recommend the Bath & Body Works shower gel to anyone wanting a great shower clean feeling.

I have tried many different body wash products that are on the market, but I keep going back to the Bath and Body Works brand. They leave your skin smooth and silky to the touch. I never feel greasy or oily after using it. I really like that you can get a lotion, body spray, perfume, and other things that coordinate with the scent you choose at Bath and Body Works. My favorite scent is the Warm Vanilla Sugar. It is a subtle fragrance that lasts all day. People say "you smell really good" all the time and all I have used is the body wash and lotion. No perfume is needed when you used these products. I just purchased the coordinating perfume for myself for Christmas, so I haven't tried it yet. I will review it later, but I am sure that it will be as great as all the other Bath and Body Works products. There are many great deals to be found at the Bath and Body Works stores right now, so head over and decide what your favorite scent is!
