Wow, this scrub smells so incredible my dog has actually poked his head in the shower thinking there might be something good to eat! It exfoliates well with a medium-grit scrub that dissolves into a silky liquid on your skin. My skin feels soft and clean afterwards. I wouldn't say that the smell lingers on your skin too long afterwards- it is more about the experience of using it in the shower or bath. The tub is a good size for the price- you basically have to reach in with your fingers and scoop some scrub out which can be kind of akward if you have a small shower- you might have to turn off the water for a minute to avoid getting water in the container. I wouldn't say this is an everyday product- as incredible as it smells I think it would be a shame to use it everyday and get used to it. I use this about once a week when I want to really indulge myself and enjoy a hot, steamy, chocolatey shower.

I bought this product because I read nothing but good reviews about it. It does what it needs to like... it cleans the skin well and has a nice scent, but it was too gentle on my skin, the smell didn't last long, and it didn't leave my skin sily smooth of soft like I thought it would. It's good for a cleanser, and that's about it.

        This smells soooo good. It doesn't seem to be very moisturizing, but it does exfoliate nicely and doesn't leave me feeling slimey, so it is a good thing. I will definitly purchase this again.

        If you hate greasy layer on your skin and the tub after you use sugar scrub, you will like this, otherwise, it does not have the moisturizing effect a sugar scrub has. Good exfoliation though, it doesn't melt as quickly as alba botanica sugar scrub (that one is very moisturizing~) and it has nice strong chocolate scent, keep smelling it all the way you shower!!! The warming effect disappears in seconds so it makes no difference. I like the natural ingredients in it~

          Giovanni makes great products and products that are all natural is a plus! This scrub is great and the smell is pleasant, you must like the smell of chocolate to truly appreciate this scrub. I have very dry skin and this is the first scrub that makes my skin silky smooth. Will continue to buy this product.

            The container is small and since I'm a student on a budget I use the scrub sparingly. I have ultra sensitive skin, and this so far is the only scrub that hasn't made my skin break out. It's gentle but still effective. My skin is definitely smooth and soft, especially after shaving or working out. The chocolate smell isn't over powering or artificial smelling.

                I just got this scrub a few weeks ago. It is amazing! Smells like rich chocolate. Best of all, it rates as having some of the best ingredients for your body -- no harsh chemicals whatsoever! This is one product that lives up to the Giovanni naturals marketing slogan.

                  This scrub is heavenly. It smells like hot chocolate and it is effective but not abbrasive. I have skin allergies so am cautious about what I use. I absolutely love this. I wanted to share it with my friends so I gave it to them as a Christmas gift. I recommend it.

                    Okay, this stuff is amazing, what everyone has said is true, however, for [$] you do not get a lot and for my personal pleasures, I like to use a generous amount to get the dry skin off and doing that daily adds up to using one jar in 2 weeks.Almost 30 bucks a month for a heavenly, chocolate scrub daily?..hmm, normally I wouldn't mind, but things are tight and since I also buy bubble bath/shower gel, that just adds up too quickly.
