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.

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~

    This scrub smells so good I can't believe it. It's a genuine chocolate scent that you never find in "cocoa" scented products because it is a natural cocoa product. The jar isn't huge, so it's probably best for when you want a something special at bath/shower time. The warming sensation isn't that significant, but you feel a little warmth when applying it. Left my skin very soft. I love it!

        I have very sensitive skin, but was getting sick of shelling out $26 for H20's Sea Salt Scrub, which is wonderful. It smells so good - the smell doesn't last, and I'm fine with that. It exfoliates so wonderfully! I love this product!

        Comments about Giovanni Hot Chocolate Sugar Scrub with Crushed Cocoa Beans, 9 oz:

        This is alright. The smell alone is worth buying it, but I probably will not purchase again. I feel it does not exfoliate that great & is very thick so it's hard to not use a lot. It is not moisturizing at all but I do enjoy how it heats up. Like I said, probably will not purchase again-- YUMMY smell though!!!

          This stuff is GREAT! I rub it on my legs and arms before I get into the shower (there was another reviewer who said to do this). I get slightly wet and rub it around some more. The smell is delicious but doesn't stay afterwards, which I think is good because I would be licking my arm all day. The best is that my skin is SUPER smooth afterwards. Unlike any scrub I've used before, and I've used a lot of scrubs. I only use once every couple of weeks because of the cost, but would use it every couple of days if cheaper :) This is going to be Christmas gifts for my best girlfriends!!

          The smell of this product is wonderful and lasts quite awhile. One thing I didn't know when I bought it was that it heats up when you rub it in. The only bad thing is thst it doesn't lather very well. But the pros def. outweigh the cons. This is one to try.

              I love sugar scrubs for exfoliation. This one is heavenly. Be careful, it might set off some chocolate cravings when you use it!

              I'm not a big reveiw writer but I had to comment on this stuff. I love it. I bought it a few months ago but forgot that I had it. I used it during my shower a few days ago and it left my skin feeling so smooth. I was a little disappointed in the lather but I can get past that.I will never again go without this scrub. It's amazing.

                This stuff is fantastic and so worth it. Smells amazing, great consistency, doesn't get shower greasy/slippery, makes skin super soft - i just LOVE IT!

                put it on dry skin, and then start the shower.
