Nice smell but...
Date:April 26, 2013
This smells great as all the Body Shop products do, but is not moisturizing. I will stick to the hemp line which works much better.

Use Occassionally
Date:March 30, 2013
Like the scent, smells fresh. Hands feel clean and refreshed after use, much like after using an antibacterial gel. Use it in addition to hand cream rather than in place of.

Wrong Product For My Liking
Date:March 9, 2013
When my Body Shop package arrived and I opened it to find the absinth hand cream inside I noticed the tube was not full like the Almond one. It look squeezed per se. I had 2 coworkers talking to me when I opened it and they even commented on the packaging and how it looked used.
When I first used the absinth hand cream a watery substance squirt out and the handcream wasn't really a cream. Even when put on your hand it slid around like a piece of ice on the ground leaving a water trail. I put the lid on and the cream slid off my hand onto my desk but after reading the review below I guess the consistency issue I found wasn't just limited to mine.
The smell is ok but yes it is definitely overwhelming. After the product was rubbed in I noticed my skin was still dry. I wasn't happy with this product at all and wish a store was more convenient to return the product.
If you are just wanting a perfume cream then this would be for you.

Too Fragrant!
Date:February 15, 2013
The good news: I purchased the smaller version of these and got them much cheaper with a promotional discount. My friends loved them.
The bad news: I bought them for myself ... ! And, because I could not handle the scent, did not benefit from the purchase. So, it was not money well spent, in the end.
I usually buy lotion from the Hemp line because my skin is dry and the line WORKS for me. I was willing to try something new, based on the description of the product, and the fact that I like Body Shop products. But, I could not get past the scent--it is too much. Also, unlike the Hemp Hand Creme Protector (in the tube), which is creamy and absorbs well into my skin, the Absinthe is "thinner," for lack of a better word, and did not absorb as quickly. It's not sticky but it felt like that way.
Having said that, you may LOVE this product. I would never buy it as a gift unless I already knew the person would enjoy it. I, literally, used it one time; so I intentionally only gave an "overall" rating. It did not seem valid to comment on the other areas ... I recommend trying this product line in-store before you purchase.

Great Hand Cream
Date:February 14, 2013
Has a great fresh herbal smell that is good for men and women. Absorbs very quickly. Thinner than the hemp hand cream. Hands feel soft instantly. Great product that I would buy again.

Scent too strong for me, also too watery.
Hands feel dryer after use.
