Advantages: Delicious smell, great for skin

Disadvantages: cheap-looking bottle

I was given a large bottle of this as a gift some time ago, and I left it on the bathroom shelf for ages without trying it. Somehow the packaging is a little unprepossessing for a premium brand - just a simple plastic bottle like you'd get an own brand bubble bath in. I was also a little put off by the Green Tea aspect of the product, as I have found it quite astringent on my sensitive skin in the past.

Last night, however, I ran myself a bath with this, as I had run out of my usual bath creme. I was pleasantly surprised at the aroma, which was citrussy and fresh, and not at all medicinal as I had feared.

The product doesn't really foam up as much as soften and fragrance the bathwater - it was very relaxing to lie in, and I could feel my skin softening moment by moment!

After I'd dried myself, my skin was lovely and moisturised, as though I'd used a bath oil, and there was a faint scent left behind, although not so strong as to destroy my perfume plans! And no sensitivity whatsoever.

All in all, this was a very enjoyable and effective bath product, which I would recommend highly. Its just a shame that Elizabeth Arden insist on making it look so cheap!

Summary: Far better than expected!
