What They Say: "Wrap your hands in the rich scent of crème caramel blended with a hint of sugar and vanilla. This lush crème will nourish your skin with vitamin E and rich plant oils from sunflower and jojoba seed to leave hands velvety soft and moisturized without a greasy feeling."

Jamie's Thoughts: This is a perfectly lovely hand cream - it softens, doesn't feel greasy at all, and is all that the company claims it to be. My only complaint is this: the smell is way too strong. There is no "hint" of sugar and vanilla - the smell of caramel and all things sweet basically slap you across the face the minute you apply the cream. It was really distracting.

I imagine some people might smell the cream and be metaphorically "whisked away" to an imagined private island vacation in the tropics. The only thing I was reminded of, upon first application, was this one tanning accelerator that I used prior to my sister's wedding. Each to their own, I guess.

If you like super strong, ultra-sweet scents (and don't mind that scent all over your sheets, pillows, and hand towels), then this might be something you'd like. Functionally speaking, it is average at best.
