Cheating on The Body Shop with its Alter Ego

It happened again... I'm in love! And I'm a cheater! For years I have been faithful to my body butter "Japanese Cherry Blossom" and I loved it. I never tried anything else and I kept buying it. Before moving to Israel I even bought a new jar of it, because I know that I won't be able to find it here, since "The Body Shop" is different. It carries the same logo, but apart from that the products, the campaigns and the themes are absolutely altered.
It started in a very innocent manner, really. In a state of boredom I went to the shopping centre and wandered into the shop. I started opening and smelling jars, until I came across Orchid Nights. From the moment I smelled it I knew I'd have to have it. I was putting up a fight, trying to convince myself that I was happy with mine, but it was all in vain.
The next day I went to The Body Shop determined to buy the body butter and saw that they were actually offering a deal on the body butter and the shower foam, resulting in both items landing in my bag.
I quickly want to review this body butter, or maybe rather compare it to European Body Shops. I actually prefer this one due to its texture. It is lighter and thus the skin absorbs it much quicker without feeling sticky or oily, while in the same time it moisturises extremely well leaving the skin smooth for days.
And it didn't stop there! After using the new products for a bit and loving every second of it I saw that they are offering a body spray to complete the series. I never actually used a body spray but I figured that it would probably be a good idea for Israel, since the summer here is long and hot and to use perfume during the day seems just impossible (even without considering the fact that it can give one pigmented moles). And I am loving it so far!
