Nicest smelling hand and body lotion

18 replies

I love a nice smelling hand and body lotion - the smell mentally takes me away to a fancy hotel. What's your favourite? I'm not looking for massively pricey, more mid range.

My favourite is the Elemis Rivalitlise Me Hand and Body Lotion but it seems to only be available in tiny or huge versions.

Thanks for suggestions.

I love this one plus their bath soak in this scent is amazing ! Comes
in a glass bottle. I actually love the Hackney scent too ☺️ nice to support a British company too https://soapsmith.com/collections/hand-body-lotion/products/bloomsbury-hand-lotion

Thank you. I've just ordered this one.

I’ve just been at a fancy hotel and they had this in the rooms and spa - we loved it and ended up buying some:

I like sanctuary, soap and glory and Rituals (the red one)

I really love the M&S apothecary ‘calm’ smell. It just smells gorgeous.

Thanks everyone. I've ordered a couple and will make a note of the others to order in the spring.

Love the M&S apothecary range. We always get compliments on it.
We recently stayed somewhere with this and had to buy immediately. The diffuser is insane. We’ve had it 10 weeks and haven’t gone nose blind to it yet. But the hand and body lotion have the same scent. Not opened mine yet as still finishing what’s currently in use.

@Brienneoftarthismyhero - it wasn’t my thread but thank you for the Soapsmiths recommendation. I ordered some of their hand wash off the back of this thread and it is lovely.

Love Rituals. Scottish fine soaps really nice I have the sea kelp hand wash.

I’m so happy to hear that. I’ve been using their products for a few years now, currently have the Hackney hand lotion on my bedside table.

L’Occitane Lumiere d’Hiver ( winter glow) body lotion is lovely as is the matching shower cream. Smells of citron and bergamot, very redolent of Christmas.

100 acres or the apocalyptic range from m&s is also very nice.

My favourite is the one they use at The Black Bull in Sedbergh, it’s called Petrichor and smells like that lovely smell after it’s just rained https://www.theblackbullsedbergh.co.uk/shop/
