countess_eva's Full Review: Bath & Body Works Temptations Cinnamon Bun Heaven ...
This particular little delight has been one of my favorite body lotions for quite some time and has gotten me addicted to the Temptations series. The rich sensual aroma filled with heady cinnamon and a warm, out of the oven feel makes for a truly delectable treat that will make the wearer feel like a true princess. After getting out of a hot, indulgently long shower, I like to lather this delightful brew on and just luxuriate in the rich, multi layered scent and tingly warm sensations for hours, usually while indulging in some hot cocoa too.
The Cinnamon Bun Heaven Temptations Body Lotion comes in a 10oz plastic bottle with a orangey-creamy color and the rendition of a dripping cinnamon bun. At first I wondered how I would feel about wearing a product that might make me smell like a pastry but after cautiously uncapping the top and allowing some of the thick liquid dribble into my hand, I realized that I was in love – with a lotion. The scent is distinctly foodie and, as such, very delectable. If the bottle didn’t warn against ingestion, I just might have to try it. The scent is rich and warm, like a small cottage kitchen filled with the smell of fresh cooked cinnamon buns, yet the scent isn’t so overpowering as the be unpleasant and, unlike real food, it never gets stale. And, unlike most body lotion, the heavenly aroma lasts all day and even when I am ready for my bath the next morning, I can still detect the lovely cinnamon undertones. A neat little trick to try is to lather this on right before putting your clothes on so the smell will permeate your wardrobe and send out aromatic little whiffs of tempting cinnamon heaven. Needless to say, this product does substitute for perfume.
Of course, the lasting aroma is the main attractions of this little delight. As a moisturizer it does okay, but nothing special. For me I always use Aveeno for my face and hands since they can get a bit dry. I like to use this lotion of my arms, torso, and legs and it works fine there as a moisturizer. It has a surprising ability to hold in the warmth and clean feel of a shower long afterwards. A couple of hours after putting it on, I still have a warm pampered feeling that is a staple of the Temptations products.
Overall, Cinnamon Bun Heaven Body Lotion has a rich, delectable aroma, works fairly well as a moisturizer, and holds a clean warmth close to the body. It keeps skin pampered and protected and makes the wearer feel like a true princess. For those who adore pampering themselves and enjoy getting oodles of goodies in the mail. Highly recommended.
