Woods? Where?
Sensuous Beauty Massage Lotion is amazing, really. All natural, no fillers, no harmful ingredients, it spreads on like an oil, provides an extremely long lasting medium for massage and its scent lingers on the body for hours and hours. Excellent for after bath and massage use - IF you like the scent.Published: November 13, 2010
Pros:
Very long lasting, luxurious, scent lasts a long time
Cons:
Sweet woods scent stinks to high heaven
Follow-up commentary
12 months after original review
Having followed up and tried this lotion in the rose, violet tangerine and lavender scents (What can I say, I'm thorough) I can definitely say that I like it a LOT.
It's an oily lotion and, in fact, breaks down a bit so that you have to shake it before you use it. It definitely works well for extended massage and lingers on the skin for a good, long time. It's slightly greasy so those with already oily skin will not like it much. It's heavy and best for dry skin or those who don't mind the feel of an oil sinking into their skin for a few hours.
Each scent is unique and very, very natural. Nothing artificial smelling, they all smell like essential oils and real flowers and plants. This may not appeal to those who prefer a "bath and body works" type scent but for the nature lovers these are a luxurious treat for the senses. Love! (Though I will admit I still can't tolerate that freaky woods scent. Ugh! Do not love!)

Sensuous Beauty Lotion Scents?
-
Has anyone tried the "Come Hither" scent? I'm really curious about what that one smells like. If you've tried the other scents let me know how you would describe the scent. I'm really curious!

Thank you for viewing Body massage lotion review page!
Sorry it smelled so overpowering Carrie. Its always disappointing when you expect it to smell like one thing and it is overwelmingly something else. Great review as always though!
OK in the spirit of DWTim I would love to see you go to the zoo and coat an elk or half an elephant. I feel that this would enhance the review and stimulate the community...plus it would be hilarious.
Ergh I have never been able to get into Amber scented crap...I know I'm a bad bad pagan. I'll try another scent and see if it's better, I like my woodsy smells to actully SMELL like the woods! Silly me.
At any rate get on that whole elk and elephant thing and then we can add a new warning to every single lotion/oil review about how to properly oil up and elk or elephant.
Oh my gods! I got the tangerine and loved it, so I went ahead and got the sweet woods and HOLY CRAP it smell HORRIBLE. I couldn't even find anyone to give it to; I actually had to dump the stuff out. I kept the dispenser because it's nice (just peeled the label with some olive oil) but yeah, ugh, such an awful scent. The more Sensuous Beauty stuff I get the more I decide the scents are completely hit or miss.
It's good that a little goes a long way. Too bad about the overpowering scent though :/
Thanks for the great review
It's a shame that it stinks, otherwise it sounds like an excellent massage lotion.
Woooow, well, I know what smell not to get!
This sounds great. I'd really like to try the cinnamon now, who doesnt want to smell like a cookie?
