Body lotion/cream/butter with a long-lasting smell

6 replies

I'm after some body lotion/cream/butter which has a lovely smell that lasts

I don't really like the body lotion version of perfumes because I find them too, well, 'perfume-y'.
I like the richer, creamier scent of body lotion where the smell could actually be the way your skin smells, rather than the scent of something sitting on it.

God, that's such a bad explanation.

I really like the Sol de Janeiro body lotions, I find they last a very long time. I also like Soap and Glory ones.

Does anyone have any other recommendations, please? I'm happy to spend about £20-£30 on a bottle or tub.

Thank you.

I always find sanctuary from boots last well but especially when you use the shower gel too! Gorgeous!!

Dove Pro Age body butter has quite a sweet berry long lasting smell for me.

Ah, yes, Sanctuary - I haven't used that for years!

Oh, that's interesting about Dove - I always find their stuff a bit 'meh'. I mean, their body lotions smell okay but don't really last. But I've never tried the Pro-Age, I don't think!

Soap and Glory body butters smell lovely and last for ages.

Bath & Body Works (sold by Next) are great. Big range of scents and they do them in body cream or body lotion, plus body butter in some scents. Often on a 3 for 2 offer.

I also like the Victoria’s Secret Pink lotions (the ones in the pump bottles). Love the honey one and the coconut one in particular. Also available online from Next.
