Classy and Romantic Mar 08, 2010
By J. Finkel
"Jack of Trades"
This was a gift to my wife for valentine's day and she really liked it. I was worried the lavender would be overpowering on some of the products, but it's a good balance between noticeable and pleasant. The sponges/scrubbers are big enough to get the job done - about the size of a hand each. The mix of items is great for enjoying a bath and lathering on some moisturizers afterward. The potpourri is bigger than you can tell from picture - at least a liter in volume. The containers are all pretty nice and easy to use. None of the included items seem cheap or useless. Finding a nice bathrobe and some candles to compliment this gift basket would really make a special romantic present.

Lovely and overpriced Feb 14, 2012
By Vance Hanson I purchased this gift basket for my wife as a valentine's day gift. The fragrance after just opening the Amazon box was delightful and everything was organized well. There are two primary reasons I am displeased with this item. First, the container appeared in the photo to be a hard, durable basket made of some material at least resembling stone. With that hope, I looked forward to being able to use the container as a decorative bowl on an end table or in the kitchen. However, the container I received was no more than cardboard, easily bent and hardly more decorative than the Amazon box that it was shipped in. With this considered, we come to my second issue with this item...the price. This item is roughly $20-$25 overpriced in my opinion. With a nice stone-like container this item could pretty easily bring the $65 I've paid for it.
Now, a few bits of information to be fair to the seller: 1. I am a man, not an expert in bath soaps and bathing utensils, and am not familiar with retail pricing of each individual product contained within the basket. All I know is that it costs me under $5 for a bottle of Old Spice Body Wash and a couple more dollars for a wash cloth. 2. I must reemphasize, once more, I AM NOT AN EXPERT IN PRICING of women's bathing products. 3. I won't be giving my wife the basket until Valentine's Day tomorrow, and her reaction is what really reveals the true value of the basket.

She Loved It! Jan 07, 2012
By John Christensen Lavendar is her favorite fragrance, and she immediately called me the next day to thank me and told me she had taken a bath that night and said how relaxing and soothing it was. I was happy it arrived two days before Christmas, exactly as they said; bacause I had problems w/ other Christmas gifts not arriving to their destinations properly.
Tampered Products May 14, 2012
By Daniel R Yip A wonderful set, but let me get straight to the point.
TWICE, not once, but TWICE my family ordered this product, presuming that it would arrive intact. Unfortunately, TWICE we discovered that the body lotion in the first shipment had been punctured andan 1/4 of the product ALREADY USED.
In the second shipment, the body lotion AND the shower gel had been punctured and 1/4 used.
This not only is a huge disappointment in quality control, but a hygienic issue. Frankly, it is disgusting to think that someone had dipped their fingers into body lotion and shower gel previously, and then nicely wrapped up the package as if nothing was wrong.
I am extremely disappointed at 'Art of Appreciation's complete lack of Quality Control. I am NEVER buying from them again.
Nice gift May 11, 2012
By S Dallas This was purchased as a gift for my mom. She was quite impressed with it... said it smelled wonderful and was really pretty. There was, however, no gift card or notice anywhere on the box telling her who it was from.
