I LOVE taking showers. I'm not one to take a bath very often but when I'm in the shower, that's my time to relax. For that reason, I prefer nice scented shower gels - they're my treat!
At the moment I am obsessed with two shower gels, which scents fit perfectly into the colder months.
On the left is a well known favourite, Lush's Ponche. This shower gel only comes out around Christmas and I absolutely love it. It is described as a mix of plum, orange and tequila. I could never recoginize the individual components but it has a very fruity and spicy fagrance which is perfect for getting in the autumn mood and still very nice for Christmas.
On the right is a very recent buy from my local drugstore. The brand is called treaclemoon (www.treaclemoon.de) and currently only available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Warm Cinnamon Nights is a limited edition shower gel by this brand and it's one that reminds me more of Christmas than Ponche. It's beautifully sweet and smells strongly of cinammon. It has an underlying fruit scent, though, so it's not too sickly sweet. Also, it doesn't dry my skin out at all which many shower gels do. It's are a little more pricey than your regular shower gel from the drugstore but nowhere near as expensive as Ponche (8.99€). Another thing I appreciated a lot, is that Warm Cinnamon Nights is available in a try-me size in the travel section. This 60ml size is the one I bought and it gives you a fair chance of trying it out for a couple of weeks. I take a shower every morning and have used Warm Cinnamon Nights every day so far. It's about half way empty, so I'd estimate that there's enough product for 2 weeks or so.
Do you have any shower gels which you take out/buy for autumn and Christmas? I'd love to know!
