I got this as a gift and it's pretty nice if you like really sweet vanillas. Vanilla is never a scent I pick out for myself, but I don't mind it. This one smells like vanilla cake batter while you...

I pick this up every year during the holiday season. Sometimes it sells out before I can get my hands on it, so I paid too much for it ($12.50/bottle--ouch). It smells nice but doesn't linger at...

Two words: sugar cookies. Sugar cookies is exactly what vanilla bean Noel smells like to me. Especially the shower gel. I think that the shower gel is what this scent smells best in.. The lotion...

I usually don't care for vanilla scented body care but this is an exception! I find that this vanilla is not overpowering but it does smell sweet and delicate. However, I feel like this body wash...

This is a must buy every holiday season. I love using this shower gel on the truly cold bitter winter mornings. This scent is so warm and cozy smelling. I'm usually not a fan of gels that smell...

I never really used shower gel before this, but when I smelled it, it reminded me of vanilla cake and I knew I had to get it ! The packaging is very pretty, but It's a bit hard to get out of the...

I love the smell of this. I have to agree with the reviewer below me because that happens a lot with bbw scents where the scent differs by which product it is: body lotion, body wash,...

There appears to be an issue with BBW quality control or consistancy problems with this formula since the scent of Vanilla Noel differs widely between the lotion, the body wash, the spray mist, and...

So my husband HATES anything vanilla scented. Every time I wear this, he comes up to me and kisses my neck and says "Mmmmm you smell like cake." So I of course have to remind him it's vanilla. I...

I never bothered buying the VBN Shower Gel in the past and thankfully so, since it seems to have gotten terrible reviews each year about having no smell, or smelling like plastic. This year I did...

This is pure confection - it smells like cake and frosting and vanilla and caramel - there are no hints of flowers or fruit or anything. You might as well be washing yourself with cake batter - and...

They have finally improved the Vanilla Bean Noel shower gel this year. It smells just like the lotion, warm caramel and vanilla, and it is strongly scented. The scent stays on my skin after...

This is probably the weakest of the Vanilla Bean Noel products, in my opinion. The scent is very weak, and if you are just planning on using the shower gel without applying lotion afterwards, then...
