yumm!
Smells really good! In my opinion, the smell of this body wash stays on my skin better compared to others. One thing to note: the smell when you first get it and smell it straight from the bottle is a little overwhelming, so just give it a chance and wait till you try it. It smells a lot different on your body compared to smelling it by itself.

My new obsession: Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere by Phi
If cozy had a scent, it would be Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere. This shower gel from Philosophy feels like wrapping yourself in a soft blanket on a cool morning. The scent is a beautiful blend of creamy vanilla, sweet cashmere, and a hint of musk — warm, comforting, and just elegant enough to linger without being overpowering. The texture is rich and silky, and it lathers up beautifully, leaving my skin feeling clean but never stripped. I love that it doubles as a bubble bath and even a shampoo — perfect for those nights when you want a little luxury without extra steps. After my shower, the scent stays on my skin for hours, especially when I layer it with the matching lotion. It’s one of those fragrances that makes you feel instantly relaxed and pampered. ⭐ Overall: 10/10 for softness, scent, and that cozy spa-like feel. Perfect for fall, winter, or any time you need a little self-care moment.

Warm Cashmere Is Inviting
The Warm Cashmere is my absolute favorite scent! I love it so much and always pair it with the perfume. It's perfect any time of year! The body wash leaves your skin so soft and hydrated! I wish the body wash scent stayed on your skin longer, though. Definitely recommend!

Sweet hug on the cloud
This scent is super sweet. It feels like you are on the cloud. It feels super moisturizing and hugged on my skin. It's just a regular design with beautiful wording on the label. It can be used very last as it's generous size of 32 oz. It comes with the pump. A sweet hug that you can feel everyday!!

Obsessed!
I literally use this every time I shower. I LOVE the smell of it. If you are on the fence about it, don’t hesitate you won’t regret it. This also makes a great gift!

HORRIBLE allergic reaction!
They don't list the FULL ingredient list in the product description, so I took a chance and ordered it. ALERT: If you have sensitive skin AVOID this product. After only one use, I have severe contact dermatitis (large, itchy and burning patches on my skin--it looks as if I have second degree burns!) Needed to go to my dermatologist to get a prescription steroid cream to get it to calm down. These companies need to post ALL ingredients on their ad pages--and Target should insist that they do.

Extremely strong scent- but not in a good way for me.
This scent is stronger than the lotion- and it smells very floral. I have smelled it on others, and it's great- but definitely not for me.

Good But Also Lackluster
I love Philosophy body washes and had very high hopes when I bought the "Fresh Cream" hoping it would smell like the purfume but it didn't. Very plasticy smell and is not strong at all. Had to return

Lavish texture and formula, disappointing scent
I love the lather, texture, and formula of this shower gel. It’s clearly a quality product. I am a bit disappointed in the scent. If you smell it straight from the bottle it doesn’t smell very pleasant. On the skin, it doesn’t smell at all which I suppose is okay.

Small bottle, large price
First time trying the Philosophy Coconut body wash….it smells delicious! Lathers up really well, too. The scent lingers quite a while ao that's a plus. The only negative thing(s) I have to say about it is that the bottle is small and the price is ridiculous. To me, it was also very drying. I've been on the dry side all day since using it this morning and also pretty itchy. I'll finish it up (and use lots of lotion afterwards!) but most likely won't buy again. I do love the coconut scent, though!

Former fav
I used to be obsessed with the daiquiri melon body wash. since they changed the formula it's awful. It dried out my skin and the scent smells great when using it but doesnt last even after you towel off where I used to be able to smell it all day. Will not repurchase unless they go back to how they used to make it.

Dangerously slippery
Doesn’t compare to the shampoo shower gel bath product that is no longer. Dangerously slippery in the tub and shower

Philosophy is great
I love their products but my favorite scent from them is Pure Grace and it's getting harder to find in body wash and some of the other products. I purchased Cream which smells nice and is a warmer scent than the clean scent of Pure Grace.
