I hope the recipient likes your gift!

By the way, I love your name! I assume you have a gray cat? My sister had a precious gray cat that we called the "sheep cat"! He had soooo much fur that he looked like a fluffy little sheep!

The Mint Lemonade is available is a 16 ounce, and so maybe the Chilled Ginger Tea will be offered in the larger size too. It does sound like one I would like. I hope you have an enjoyable spring.

Hi Tissyanne! Yes I would love for the Ginger one to come out in a 16oz ... will keep an eye out. I hope you enjoy the spring as well, take care!

I love lemon scents. I need to hold off as long as possible. I have so many Philosophy, Perlier, and Korres shower gels already.

My set just arrived! I was able to get it for free, as I recently won a macys gift card while attending a taping of the Meredith Viera show!

Even if I didnt have that gift card, I would have bought this lemonade stand because the reviews have just been so good. (and I am a sucker for the 60s retro styling of the package!) For a year or two now, I have not been interested in much philosophy has offered in the way of fragrances/shower gels, so this set - both figuratively and literally - is so refreshing! I can't really describe the scents better than cal gal already has, but here are my reasons why this set is wonderful:

1) adorable packaging, more reminiscent of the "cristina days" which just makes my heart pitter patter

2) the 6 ounce sizes are my favorite for foodie gels! the 8 ounces are too hard to squeeze and the 16/32 oz ones just take me forever to use up

3) They nailed all three scents - they are just so "accurate," which is why i began collecting phil gels in the first place. other companies make fake-smelling cosmetics (really, lemonade smells like flowers and lemon flavored candy? ok.) but these gels smell just like these crisp drinks would taste/smell when you are drinking them on a hot summer day. just read the titles and imagine the aroma - and that is the scent they will deliver! cannot wait to try the recipes - just an added bonus!

4) color therapy! beautiful spring colored bottles make me happy as I start or end my day in the shower

5) I also love that none of them are overpowering. just 3, soft lovely scents that are in the same scent family and therefore can mix well! I appreciate a good mix.

There you have it, I highly recommend this rather affordable set as a little "treat yoself" pickmeup for the spring! Cheers!

Lmacmac2, I can totally identify with your review. I received my Lemonade stand today. It took me back as well. I hope we can look forward to more of these types going forward.

Has anyone tried the Lemonade Stand soufflé? Lemon Custard is wonderful, too. It smells like Philosophy's Sheer Splendor shampoo/conditioner.

I have the Iced Mint Lemonade souffle. The texture is creamy, and the scent is spot on for the name. I am enjoying mine. This has no resemblance to the Sheer Splendor.

Tissyanne - I hope so too! Another glimmer of hope occurred for me today during my trip to Tj maxx. Left with a bundle of oldie but goodies: baby grace body butter, lemon custard shower gel, and handmade hand cream. All smell just lovely ... Felt like it was 2004 again :-)

Lmacmac2, I am glad you found some goodies at TJ Maxx. I have been twice lately, without seeing any Philosophy. Enjoy!!

Hi philosophy girls I was thinking of getting the lemonade stand for using this summer.On Q now they have the 16 ones in the lemonade stand for $42/$3.00 I think that is the price. I have been long timer user of Pure Grace, wish the 4 oz Pure Grace(stronger version would come back),they still have it in Amazing Grace that way I don't like Amazing gives me migraines.
