I have the Cinnamin Buns body wash/shampoo & I always buy my mum Philosophy stuff for holidays. I keep meaning to make the recipe that they print on the bottle. BtW, my parents were both smokers for years & they both lost their sense of smell & taste. My mum's gotten some of her senses back but my stepdad hasn't. I love Philosophy!
