I cannot or find any better shower product than L'occitane almond shower oil

I've seen the Nina pool ' dupe' bought it and it's rubbish. Nothing can replace the smell.
Is there honestly anything close? I go through a bottle every 6 months or so.

I adore it. I could easily use a bottle a month if I could afford to. The verbena shower gel is really nice and refreshing too.
They've got some really nice fragrances. I just got the Herbe one and it's divine.
All their stuff I've tried is actually great.

Does it stay oily when you apply it?

I was worried that it might be slippery underfoot, as I always have a fear of falling, but it’s fine.
No, it doesn’t stay oily on the skin: it’s a milky sort of texture.
Agree with PPs that it can’t be bettered.

I've just discovered the Occitane almond shower oil, it was in a beauty AC.

It's amazing!!

The lather is so thick!

The Aldi dupe is just feeble. Smell does not last, you need lots of it to keep lathering up.
The dupe needs about 5 times as much as the genuine brand so, at £4.95 a bottle actually works out more expensive than the genuine brand.

I don't find it slippery, but I find a little goes a long way
