Vanilla Birthday Cake

I am a faithful philosophy consumer and have been since high school and I generally love warm vanilla scents but there was something about birthday cake that just didn't smell right! I felt like the scent didn't last very long and the scent really didn't remind me of vanilla birthday cake...

I don't like the smell of Vanilla but I really enjoy this product. It was a super cute gift from Sephora... The fact that it was free made me like it even more...hehe Would I purchase this product for myself ...No, but I would buy it as a cute gift for someone else. The good thing about this product is its multi-function use-- it can be a Shampoo, Shower gel or a bubble bath soap. I like to use it as shampoo.

The smell was great, I actually still have some of this lol. It lathers like an average body wash though. I wouldnt buy it as a staple on my budget but it's good for a splurge!

I got this for free on my birthday at Sephora. I LOVED the smell but I would never just go out and buy this product. I wasn't that impressed-it was actually pretty average. I didn't notice that my skin was better by using this product.

Anything by Philosophy, I am in love with. I have about 7 different scents & they make you feel so nice & fresh. I also love the fact that they have the recipes on the front of the bottles of what they are labeled. Too cute!

I got this as a birthday gift from sephora and I LOVE IT! It makes me feel extra clean! I thought all philosophy body wash would work like this one, but they don't. The smell is amazing.

I'm actually obsessed with this product by Philosophy! I also really impressed by how long a bottle lasts, i got mine at sephora last january for my birthday and i still have like an inch left(when you look at the bottle sideways)! I l love love love how it smells and it lathers really nicely :) i use it as a bubble bath but mostly for soap. i've never tried it as a shampoo though.. I highly recommend it :)

It smells too sweet which I hate. I received it for my Bday from Sephora and was disappointed.

I have two of Philosophy's 3-in-1's, one of which is Vanilla Birthday Cake. The fragrance really does smell of vanilla and that traditional cake-mix-scent we all know and love. It's not strong, and doesn't linger on the skin, so it won't compete with any perfumes/body sprays you use after showering.

Vanilla Birthday Cake's lather isn't very bubbly - not like some other body washes/bubble baths can be. It does lather, but nothing I'd call "rich". As a body wash, it leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. As a bubble bath, the bubbles don't reach anything higher than a fizz, and they dissipate almost instantly, so I definitely don't recommend it for that purpose. I haven't tried Vanilla Birthday Cake as a shampoo because my hair is color-treated, so I can't report on its performance there.

All in all, Philosophy's Vanilla Birthday Cake 3-in-1 is a lovely scent, and works wonderfully as a body wash, but I really don't think it's anything worth purchasing. While you're only paying $1.00 per ounce, $16 for a vanilla cake-scented body wash that doesn't do anything special seems like a waste to me. I received my particular bottle as my free birthday gift from Sephora. I likely wouldn't have purchased it otherwise.

I love it!! I think it smells fantastic and I got it from Sephora on my birthday. Best body wash ever! My favorite scent is vanilla so I just fell in love. It lathers pretty well, pretty decent as a shampoo. I have no complaints other than i wish I had more
