A few months ago I got a Macy’s gift certificate so I decided to splurge on this body souffle. I like that this really does smell spring-y. When I wear it I get a floral scent combined with a citrus scent. This body lotion has an accompanying fragrance, also called Spring Fever. I find that my skin doesn’t wear the fragrance well because the citrus scent becomes too sharp, which is why I ended going with the lotion. This product includes Olive, Grape Seed, Apricot Kernel and Rice Bran Oils to soften and smooth your skin.
Pros
The smell. It’s really uplifting, and great after a morning shower. The scent also fades nicely and isn’t cloying. I like that the product absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave my skin feeling sticky or greasy.
Cons
The moisturizing properties aren’t enough for the dry skin on my legs or elbows. However, the moisturizing properties would probably be just right if I lived in a warmer, humid climate like Hawaii. Also, I hate the having to dig my fingers into the jar, yuck. I wish it came in a pump or tube. The biggest issue I have is the price! If the moisturizing properties were better I’d probably buy this product again because I really love the smell and you get a lot in that big ol’ jar, but it’s just too dry here to make this product last over a long period of time. If you live in a warm, humid climate, or just don’t need heavy moisturizing then you might really like this.
Best scent ever and was discontinued. I wore this soufflé for over a decade, best $26 dollar purchase and I was under 20 when I was introduced. Extremely angry that such a fabulous aroma was discontinued. Makes absolutely no sense. They need to at least bring it back during the holiday and not just the itty bitty roll on.
I absolutely agree, this fragrance is so long lasting and there’s never a need to reapply. The shower gel, talc in the shaker bottle, body souffle and perfume had to be one of the best smelling items ever. I’m a smoker and even at the end of the day people would still be asking me what did I have on. So if that was the case then it doesn’t make any sense that Origins would discontinue the best product they make. Please bring it back.
