Molton Brown London Orange & Bergamot | Bath & Shower Gel and Hand Lotion Review

PR Sample: I was sent full-size samples of Molton Brown's Orange & Bergamot Bath & Shower Gel and Hand Lotion to review (all opinions are 100% honest & my own). I'm no stranger to Molton Brown. I first learned about them when I joined a ritzy health club, back in my college days. That's where I fell in love with their eucalyptus scent. It's amazing to use after a workout. Talk about a pick me up! I also love their rhubarb & rose scent. Can anyone say rhubarb pie? Well I was recently sent their orange & bergamot scent. Of course I know what an orange is, but a bergamot? What is a bergamot (in my Veruca Salt snozzberry voice). I quickly went to Wikipedia. A bergamot orange is a fragrant citrus fruit the size of an orange with a yellow & green color similar to a lime. It's a hybrid of a lemon & orange. Hmmm. I said, this should be interesting. Extracts of bergamot are used to scent food, perfumes and cosmetics. Well, there you have it! I've used the shower gel & hand lotion several times and I am smitten. It's a bright sunny day & happiness in a bottle! I kid you not. The scent lifts you up! It's uplifting. It's invigorating (in a natural way). It's very fresh & clean. The shower gel lathers & cleans well. The scent won't linger after your shower, so if you want to keep the scent going then buy the lotion (they sell the shower gel & body lotion as a set; save yourself some money and get both). I was sent the hand lotion. The hand lotion is super creamy & moisturizing. My hands felt very soft after using the lotion. I've included the notes for these below. It's a very nice mix. The scent is perfect for Summer and anything that starts your day off happy is great in my book. I think you'll love them to! The Molton Brown Orange & Bergamot collection also includes hand wash, bathing oil, body polisher, hand cream, aroma reeds, and home & linen mist. These also make really nice gifts.
