Josie Maran Super Size Body Butter in French Vanilla

lavenderfields · ‎12-30-2011

Can anyone who has purchased Josie's French Vanilla Body Butter describe the scent ? How does it differ from her Pure Vanilla Bean scent?

I've also noticed that the Pure Vanilla Bean Body Butter has a richer texture and is more moisturizing than her other butter scents. Does the French Vanilla have the same richness as the Vanilla Bean? Lots of questions, I know!

Thanks for your help.

I really cannot tell the difference. Maybe the French Vanilla has a little more vanilla smell than the Vanilla Bean.

Has anyone else received the French vanilla? I was hoping the vanilla bean would be available. I guess I’ll have to settle for French vanilla or vanilla fig. If anyone has the French vanilla, please let me know if you like it?

I agree that the French Vanilla has a slightly stronger vanilla smell. It's not sweet like the Creamy Vanilla, darn it! If you like the Vanilla Bean, you will like French Vanilla. I'm happy with my purchase..

I think I still prefer the vanilla bean, but I will be able to use the French Vanilla. It does smell like some sort of vanilla dessert!

I received my French Vanilla today. I asked my husband what it smelled like and he said some sort of custard. I think it smells very close to Josie's Vanilla Wafer body butter! I was surprised because so many described it as "vanilla with a hint of coconut". I still like the Vanilla Bean the best but this one is nice, too.
