I love the L'Occitane line of almond products; I think they have some of the best smelling almond products on the market! I love, love, love their Almond Shower Oil (which I included in my November 2011 Favorites) - it's great for cleansing the body and great for shaving too. I recently tried out their Almond Delicious Paste and fell in love with this product right away. It's a great way to exfoliate your skin without being harsh. It smells great, and when I follow up with the Almond Shower Oil I can almost hear my skin thanking me, lol.

L'Occitane Almond Delicious Paste Review:
Without even trying this product, I knew I'd love it. The reason being because the L'Occitane brand is great quality and their almond line of products is my absolute favorite! I love almond scented products, and I feel L'Occitane has the market cornered when it comes to great smelling almond products.
This scrub is creamy and gentle, and gets my skin soft and smooth. I don't need to use this everyday, but I could if I wanted to because it's not a harsh scrub at all. It's very gentle, and I feel like it melts into my skin.
If my skin is super, super, super dry this scrub will of course be helpful, but I prefer to use a harsher/coarser scrub in that situation. Then I'll follow up with this scrub because it's great for your skin.
Overall, yes, a great scrub that I would recommend... unless you don't like almond scented products (of if you had a nut allergy, as I'd assume you couldn't use this due to the crushed almonds).
