    Bought this for the packaging and the supposed ocean smell. Fancied it at first, but after a while, wished it smelled better. It kinda smells like rock salt and seaweed--not too pretty a smell but...

    This smells like a cross between a flower shop and the ocean, neither scent of which I am crazy about. Staying power seems to be pretty good compared to other body mists and the packaging is great...

    I like the way Message in a Bottle made me feel, very clean and fresh. Doesn’t foam as much as I would like, so I felt like I had to use more. And although the price is a little expensive you get a...

    I favor this above all Philosophy products I've tried. The scent is simple and relaxing. The smell makes me think of seaweed, steam, and lush plants. The price isn't bad for what you get! The...

    I received this in a swap with a fantastic MUAer. The bottle is huge, and I doubt I'll ever be able to use the whole thing up. Others have said it smells like flowers, but for some reason, it...

    I purchased the body spray after testing it on my hand a few days ago as I couldn't take the smell off my mind and I couldn't resist holding my hand up to smell for the whole day. So I had to go...

    I LOVE Message in a Bottle. The fragrance itself is like what you smell when you walk into a flower shop. It's green and floral and beautiful. They used to only make it as a bath oil, but now...

    I have this in the GWP size and am really enjoying it. The marine scent is lovely and clean, and my skin feels nice and soft after showering with it.

    The scent was okay at best...kinda fresh smelling, but it didn't last too long. The huge glass bottle is a pain in the butt. I won't buy it again unless they change the packaging.

    I like the clean, unique scent of this product, and can share it with my SO. However, the glass bottle posed a bit of a functional hazard. I ended up transferring the product to an easy to use...

    This is a nice bubble bath. It reminds me of going to the spa.

    I received Message in a Bottle as a GWP and was not terribly impressed. As a lotion, it's adequate, but overpriced. I dislike the scent... it's an odd scent, on the subtle side. It's not floral or...

    This is one of my favorite shower gels. The scent is intoxicating -- fresh, clean with a sweet tinge that lingers post-shower. It's marketed as a bubble bath but I love it as a shower gel. It...
