I just did a Body Shop run on my lunch break, and I’ve come to the conclusion that Satsuma is my favorite smelly soap in the world. What about the rest of you?

Cassia Clove and Vanilla (although depends on the maker of the soap) on the sweet, rather than warm side, I also like Satsuma, and Lemon Verbena. And a good Gardenia soap makes me feel sexy.  
Magnolia blossom soap with the true smell of the blossom would be wonderful to find.

Almond soap from Restoration Hardware smells pretty good. But I especially love Dr. Bonner’s peppermint soap – liquid or solid.

Ananya.

They don’t sell it here at the Body Shop anymore, so I order it from the US.

I like my own personal Peppermint/Tea Tree. ::stares pointedly at “www” button:: I also like my Devil’s Food and my new Chocolate/Peppermint mega-balm.
