My Experience with Bath and Body Works Black Cherry Merlot Nourishing Hand Cream:

Black Cherry Merlot Hand cream comes in a sturdy tube with a flip open cap. The cap shuts with a click. The packaging is totally winter themed with dark colors and has images of wine i.e., merlot and cherries on it which completely goes with name. The sturdy cap and small size make it perfect for travel.

The fragrance of this hand cream is very deep. It is like sweet berries with bitter notes and a little bit of tartness, which may be the alcohol i.e., merlot scent, but the bitter notes disappear in a couple of minutes and what remains is the true cherry fragrance. The fragrance is not strong or artificial and it smells really delicious. 😉

The cream is white in color and has perfect consistency. It is neither too thick nor runny, but it gets absorbed quickly and makes my hands very soft. Very little, pea-sized cream is needed per application so the small tube will really last long. 🙂  The sheer butter and Vitamin E in the cream makes hands soft and smooth and doesn’t make them greasy.

The best part about Bath and Body Works hand creams, including this one is that you can directly start working on your gadgets after applying the cream, but at times I do slather it on as my hands are super-duper dry and then it does makes my hands a bit greasy. But the greasiness vanishes in sometime. 🙂

Also, you can still smell the cream a bit even after washing your hands. But I do need a reapplication after every wash.
