I haven't had much luck with some of the recent new Dove products introduced on the market and when this sample of Dove Cream OIl Body Wash arrive, I was quite reluctant to give it a try. After I discovered the cherry blossom and almond scent, I felt much better. Why? Because the last two Dove products I tried, Dove Pro Age Rich Night Cream and Dove Cream Oil Intensive Body Lotion both had horrible fragrances.

About Dove Cream Oil Body Wash

This boby wash contains a natural oil in 1/4 moisturizing cream to give a very creamy formula of body wash. The scent is much differennt from the Dove Cream Oil Body Lotion and carries a nice cherry blossom almond fragrance. It is designed to leave your skin smooth, soft and silky and not oily. This body wash is available is several different scents and retails for approximately $5.99-6.99 a bottle.

Ingredients

Water, Petrolatum, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Ammonium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate, Lauric Acid, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil or Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Polybutene, Fragrance, Cocamide MEA, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride, Isostearic Acid, PEG-5 Cocamide, PEG-14M, Lauryl Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, DMDM Hydantoin, Tetra Sodium EDTA, Etidronic Acid, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Green 3 (CI 42053), Red 4 (CI 14700), Red 33 (CI 17200), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891).

My Viewpoint

I was very happy to find that this product did not stink like the last two Dove products I have purchased. The cherry blossom almond scent is nice and fragrant. It is a bit strong to the senses when you smell it in the bottle but after showering if only leaves a hint of the scent on your skin.

The formula is a thick pink cream that I found to lather a bit slowly with our hard water. You can really feel how moisturizing this formula is while bathing. It makes your skin feel silky soft and smooth. Even though the formula contains some oil, it does not leave your skin oily. I also did not notice an oily residue in the shower but I usually make sure I rinse well

Overall, this is a great body wash with a decent scent. If you tired the Pro Age product line and hated the "old lady" scent and some of the other Cream Oil products that also smelled bad, give this one a try. I can tolerate this fragrance and it really does do a great job of moisturizing skin. Highly recommended for dry skin sufferers!

"Old lady scent" --- now why don't they include accurate descriptors like THAT on product labels?!?! LOL.

Anything that works in hard water has to be pretty good. ;)
