The smell of this cream is addictive - for me it smells lightly like citrus, but I guess it is different for everybody. Those little beads are actual drops of honey, they won't scrub your skin, they burst in contact. Besides honey there are different flower extracts and butters in it. But unfortunately The 3rd item is mineral oil. With the money you pay them they could easily use sunflower seed oil or grape seed oil instead of mineral oil. Mineral oil clogs pores and don't allow those good extracts, that are good for skin, to be absorbed.Making it costs just pennies. It is more expensive to dispose of mineral oil, than to purchase it. Also, the 4th (!!!) ingredient is fragrance.
I really liked it until I started investigating ingredients (it was a gift). In fact, I'm really disappointed that such a high end company, who should care about their quality, would use mineral oil. Naive of me, huh? Well, live and learn!
If you have no problems with using mineral oil, go ahead and try it. If you don't like mineral oil, skip!

This body cream is fabulous and has a fantastic texture and delicious scent. You can't stop yourself from spreading it all over and you'll smell like the most perfumed lady in the neighborhood.

I'm obsessed with smelling good, and I got a three sample pack of these for Christmas. This item is heavily (and heavenly) perfumed. Unfortunately, Elizabeth Arden uses some ingredients I wouldn't expect such a company to use; mainly Mineral Oil (not a vegetable compound, carcinogenic) and Methylparaben (reacts with UV rays to increase skin aging). For this reason, I stopped using this product on my face.

I still recommend this lotion in moderation. I have felt a subtle difference in the softness of my face since I started using it, but as a lotion, it isn't a miracle cream. The green tea perfume mixes with almost anything, and my boyfriend loves it when I wear a variety of smells in one day, so some of this on your shoulders or chest will feel nice and mix in with the scents on your wrists and neck wonderfully. Or, if used on the legs, the scent is overwhelmingly amazing.

I'm giving this three stars because this serves as more of a novelty scented lotion than something healthy and pragmatic. Still a good product.

I've been looking for this body cream all of my life! It's wonderful! This summer my arms were dry and bumpy (like sand on my skin.) Green Tea took care of that problem! Now my skin is soft and smooth - arms, shoulders, legs -- you get the idea! The smell is fresh and pleasant. Doesn't interfer with my perfume, which I wear every day. I'm giving a jar to my daughter for Christmas and buying a supply for myself!

This arrived incredibly fast! Exactly what I wanted.Green Tea Honey Drops Body Cream - 400ml/13.54oz Elizabeth Arden

This is my wife's favorite cream. If you buy it, pay the little extra and get the 13.54 oz. jar or you will be searching for another teeny 7 oz jar. I get my wife a jar of this every Christmas as a gift and she loves it.

This body butter from Elizabeth Arden is big-sized! But the smell is not as good as i thought. It's... a little aggressive. I bought it because the customer review said the smell would last a pretty long time...It did...but only when you put your nose again your skin you can smell it...It's different from perfume, which will spread the scent.The good thing is, as a body cream, it absorbs very quick!!! Recommended if you do not care too much about the smell.(actually, the smell is almost the same as the Lancome green body perfume I used several years ago )

I love this lotion! Every time I wear it, complete strangers stop and ask me what I'm wearing because it smells so good.

I have used this green tea body cream for more than 6 years! Smell so good!It make me feel so fresh!
