• Relaxing aroma
• Creates long-lasting bath bubbles

Aveda's products are wonderful, and this body cleanser is no exception. The scent is enough to get your attention, and not too flowery - it's like being 50 feet away from a plant store, because you get all sorts of scents but not in an overpowering way. True to its word, it is quite calming - I wanted to go have a cup of tea and snuggle up in bed after my shower, so if you're a morning showerer, don't use this scent unless you're planning to get right back in bed. $14/250 mL @ aveda.com.

Amanda Says:
It's under $15 for a nice big bottle of this super sweet and soft smelling calming body wash that bubbles up great on a poof/washcloth and is definitely OK for guys/girls (read: NOT perfumey). it really does have a relaxing scent, sort of like those massage/body oils or aromatherapy things you can rub into your temples when you feel all tense and stressed out. a little perk which I didn't note on the bottle is that you can add this to scent your bath too and the smell lingers nicely.
