Looking for a shower gel or body wash which smells divine and makes me think I'm in a spa! some chance! Preferably moisturising / luxurious feeling and long lasting smell. Happy to spend a bit more than normal.

Any suggestions?

Sanctuary Spa stuff is lovely

l’occitaine almond shower oil - nothing comes close - so moisturising and the smell is incredible

Where can you buy Korres these days? You used to be able to buy the brand in m&s for a while but haven't seen it for a few years.

My local TK Maxx had quite a few shower gel and body butter sets in yday - Citrus, Peach Blossom, Lavender, Passionfruit and maybe a few more - for about 8.99 the pair.

I also love l’occitaine Cherry Blossom, I do find it more drying for my skin, but the fragrance is lovely, I also like the Cherry Blossom perfume and shimmering body lotion.

Rituals foaming shower gels also - best smelling I’ve tried

Molton Brown Templetree , I'm using the shower gel and body lotion now and it's divine

If it hasn't been mentioned before,
Fenjal smells spa like and as if you have entered a sauna. Boots sell it and I absolutely love the stuff based on the scent.

I've seen it in TKmaxx before and also in an independent chemist in London.
It's lovely.

Hi,
Yes, I get the Almond range from QVC or the L’Occitane store in either Cheshire Oaks or Liverpool.

The almond L’occitane shower gel is gorgeous, it’s always on my birthday/Christmas list as I won’t buy it myself! The whole almond range is lovely.

I second this

Seconded. It smells way more expensive than it is.

This is nice too. My second choice after l'occitane almond.

I always load up on Korres when I go to Greece. I love the Vanilla Cinnamon shower gel/ body lotion.

LadyEloise1 · 18/11/2023 21:02

I see Aldi Ireland has dupes of L'occitane Almond shower oil, body scrub and body lotion coming in next week. Yay !

Salt and Stone Santal Shower Gel smells gorgeous

NearlyMonday · 19/11/2023 08:10

I don’t need any more shower gel, but now I’m tempted to buy some!

Grimmz · 19/11/2023 08:24

I recently splurged on a bottle of Penthaligon body wash (Blenheim Bouquet scent). I had been searching for it for a long time because it's what was in the hotel room where we spent our honeymoon so it brings back lovely memories! And it's a gorgeous luxurious scent.

I love the Bayliss & Harding bath & body range that Waitrose stock, especially the oud, cedar, and amber one - smells so luxurious. Also the 'own brand' copies are really good too.

I agree. Their rose and geranium one is out of this world. People are so snobbish about their products but I genuinely can't tell the difference in quality between them and Molton Brown except that some of their scents are weaker, but not the oud or the rose.

I love it too and it is very reasonably priced. The foaming mousse shower gel is gorgeous.

DD has swapped her expensive shower crème for Imperial Leather Clementine and Neroli. It smells beautiful and she says that her skin is really smooth and soft.
