<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
NATIVE sells body washes, deodorants, and shampoos, which, thanks to its pleasantly surprising new partnership with Girl Scouts, are now available for a limited time with the distinctive aromas of Thin Mints, Trefoils, or the still-evocative-but-slightly-less-signature scents of Coconut Caramel, Peanut Butter, and Lemon. Their bottles cheerfully explain that \u201cGirl Scouts shower the world with kindness and optimism,\u201d and so the point of this unexpected crossover is to \u201cBring that can-do energy to your day.\u201d Fair enough \u2014 few things in this world put me in a more positive mood than cookies, after all.<\/p>\n
Amidst such a sea of choices, I committed to the Trefoils Body Wash, which attractively combines my favorite Girl Scout cookie with the toiletry I\u2019m most likely to have somehow just run out of AGAIN.<\/p>\n
To get to the heart of this review: how did the body wash taste?<\/p>\n
Kidding, kidding!<\/p>\n
NATIVE\u2019s website describes this as \u201ca scrumptious shortbread scent \\[that] blends notes of vanilla, lemon, and buttercream.\u201d I describe it as \u201csickly sweet,” but I don\u2019t necessarily even mean it negatively. If you\u2019re buying a body wash based on a sugary snack, I assume you\u2019re into that kind of thing, but just stopping at \u201csweet\u201d isn\u2019t enough. I really do need to stress that this is so overwhelmingly strong-smelling that I half-expected that I\u2019d be trailed by a hoard of hungry Keebler Elves after using it. Of the notes listed, I detected buttercream the most, as the smell is undoubtedly\u2026 well, buttery and creamy. Vanilla was definitely discernible too, though I can\u2019t say I made out more than maaaaybe the tiniest whiff of lemon as an afterthought. If I\u2019d had to smell this without knowing what it was, though, I probably would have guessed birthday cake \u2014 it reminded me more than anything of a super-saccharine, sprinkles-and-frosted-loaded milkshake.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I really wanted to see how accurate this was to the scent of an actual Trefoil cookie, But sadly, Girl Scouts aren\u2019t set to start hawking their wares in my area for another month, so I did what any desperate dessert fan would do and sought out a copycat recipe for comparison instead. My homemade \u201ctre-faux-ls\u201d were not quite as picturesque as the real thing, but their scent wasn\u2019t extremely far from that of the body wash \u2014 it was just way less heavy on that cloying buttercream.<\/p>\n
As a food reviewer, I don\u2019t think I\u2019m super qualified to comment on more about this dye-free body wash than its cookie-ish-ness; I did like the texture and feeling of cleanliness after using it, but the gimmick of being themed after a beloved nostalgic treat was really the draw for me, so I can\u2019t truly say how this would stack up against more traditional body washes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
If the prospect of smelling like a giant baked good and craving one every time you catch a whiff of yourself unsettles you, I would not recommend buying anything from this NATIVE x Girl Scouts collab. But if, like me, you\u2019re seeking a signature scent as tasty as your favorite tidbit, there\u2019s a lot to like here. Just remember, as the bottle ever-so-helpfully disclaims: \u201cOur scents are sweet, but do not eat.\u201d<\/p>\n
