The Body Shop Honeymania ~ fragrance review
As I mentioned when I reviewed White Musk Libertine back in 2011, The Body Shop is one of my favorite hunting-grounds for cheap thrill fragrances at the mall. L’Occitane has pretty much priced themselves out of the cheap thrills category altogether, and it’s been a long time since I liked anything at Bath & Body Works. Lush is always worth a stop assuming you can handle the olfactory overload, but my local store rarely has more than a fraction of their fragrance line.
The Body Shop is iffy, mind you. I don’t like everything they make. You don’t run to the Body Shop because of the high quality ingredients, much less the daring compositions — you won’t find anything like Lush’s The Voice of Reason at The Body Shop. But hey, if you do like something at The Body Shop, and you get there on one of their frequent sales days, you might just walk out with 30 ml of something for less than $10…
