What a name for lotion, eh? But the Kiehl’s Aromatic Blends Vanilla & Cedarwood Skin-Softening Body Lotion is a seasonal favorite, when I’m looking for something a little heavier and more substantive for the colder months.

The scent is top notch, and the vanilla is more like bourbon than babies, so I’m a fan, as it provides a nice shift from the usual summer scents I use. The cedarwood gives the scent a nice subtle, smoky hint that I think is a great compliment to your sweaters and scarves. It’s a little bit seductive, without overpowering.

The lotion itself, as with all Kiehl’s products, is intensely hydrating and soaks right into skin without leaving any kind of residue.
