pure scent
-11.13.11
Love Body Shop and so excited to find their products at Sephora (now I can earn points!). Satsuma is one of their best. So refreshing, just a nice pure scent. I love Philosophy but every now and then it's great to get a product with a natural scent. And the price is great.

One of my favorite shower gels....
-11.05.11
Quick Take: scented
This is one of my favorite shower gels. It lathers very well, so you don't use up the bottle very quickly. The scent is kind of a "spicy" orange scent, but to me the primary scent is orange. Light, refreshing and a great way to "revive" and wake up during an early a.m. shower.

Quick Take: foamy, scented
I have tried the Satsuma body butter and loved the scent. When I saw the shower gel, I had to get it. Layered with the body butter, the wonderful smell lasts all day on my skin. YUMMY!

Delicious Citrus Scent
-08.31.11
Quick Take: foamy, scented
The Satsuma fragrance is so fresh and juicy it makes me crave a smoothie! The lather is light and airy and leaves no residue. The scent rinses off in the shower so it won't leave anything behind to clash with a fragrance you might want to wear during the day.
One minor complaint is that the pump does not dispense as much product as I like to use so it requires about 5-7 pumps for me to get the quantity I like to use.

Body washes are pretty much all the same to me. This one has a nice scent and lathers like most others.

I will definitely continue to buy this shower gel. The smell is so fresh and invigorating. My only complaint is that you have to use more to get it super foamy.

Quick Take: foamy, scented
This is the absolute best smelling shower gel I've ever used. Not only does it make my skin smell great for a solid hour after I shower but when I leave the door open while I'm showering my entire apartment smells like oranges. It lathers really nicely too.

A Citrus Vacation
-05.05.11
Quick Take: foamy, scented
The smell is so amazing, to good to describe! It smells like a sweet orange with a light scent of floral notes. I love this stuff and I am so excited it is now at Sephora! This shower gel never dries my skin and is infused with actual orange and honey. It also buys from fair trade communities so that is always a plus! The only down side is that the pump is not long enough to hang over the bottle edge, so you get that icky build up. I have to say this is the best thing I have ever smelled and it leaves you lightly coated in this citrus dream!

I've always loved the Satsuma scent from The Body Shop & was thrilled to see them here @ Sephora! My only complaint about this body wash, is the bottle itself. The pump just doesn't pump very well & It gets stuck easily. Otherwise, a great product!

-04.25.11
Quick Take: foamy, lightly scented, moisturizing.
I bought this because of the product and the price. It has been quite some time since I have used this Satsuma gel, have always loved the scent. You just need a small amount on a loofa or scrubby mitt to produce a nice lather. And your skin feels amazing afterwards with a nice, light scent. Dare I say that I like this a bit more than Philosophy?

This is the perfect body wash. Nice and light and clean smelling. Hydrating too. I love using this as a base with my other orange Bliss, Pacifica, and Body shop products as they all work together :)

Quick Take: foamy, scented
Satsuma from the body shop is one of my all time favorite smells! I hope they never discontinue it. This product is very nice, and a little on a shower puff (loofah) goes a long way, so it lasts for a pretty long time. It a nice little luxury that can take the chore out of getting ready in the morning, and the citrus smelling is very invigorating, like drinking orange juice! Take note, that you probably won't like this product if you don't like sweet smells.
