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.

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!

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.

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.

Philosophy’s Hydrating Shower Gel Cream is a luxurious, multi-purpose cleanser that works as a body wash, shampoo, and bubble bath. Known for its rich, creamy lather and skin-softening formula, it gently cleanses without stripping moisture, leaving skin feeling smooth and lightly hydrated. The subtle, elegant scents like Amazing Grace and Fresh Cream add a spa-like touch to your routine, making it a daily indulgence. While it’s a bit of a splurge, its gentle performance and soothing fragrance make it a favorite for those who love a soft, clean finish with a hint of fragrance.

I thought this was the original Amazing Grace scent and was about to return it without using it. However, I tried it and I love it! I love how it lathers and the scent lingers for a while. I would definitely recommend.

Hydrating Fresh Cream Gel: My Take

I’ve been using the Philosophy Hydrating Shower Gel in Fresh Cream, and I have to say, it’s become a staple in my routine! The scent is absolutely delicious—subtle, sweet, and comforting, without being overpowering. What I love most is how hydrated my skin feels afterward. It’s gentle, yet leaves my skin feeling soft and nourished, not dry or tight. Perfect for daily use, and the formula is ideal for my combination skin. If you’re looking for a shower gel that’s both refreshing and moisturizing, this one is definitely worth trying. It truly elevates the self-care experience!

Wonderful formula but hardly any scent

I love the Fresh Cream fragrance so much that the main reason I purchased the shower gel was for the scent! While the formula is ultra creamy, lathers up well and moisturized my skin, I'm extremely disappointed in the subdued scent. I could hardly smell it in the package but figured once it was mixed with water it would liven up. Unfortunately, it was hardly noticeable in the shower and left no detectable scent on my skin. For the steep price point and previous experience with the Philosophy brand, I definitely expected more from this product.

I love Fresh Creme. It's has a light fragrance and it makes my skin feel so soft. This is a shower gel you can use year around, especially in the summer when you don't want a strong fragrance on your skin.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that the scent is sweet and lightweight and that it comes in very simple yet modern packaging. The texture is nice and thick and feels very lavish on the skin. Can’t wait to try other scents!
