I like this product especially because I work in health care and I cannot have anything that would be overpowering for scent-sensitive clients. I have received compliments on this scent before and I would definitely recommend it to others. It has a subtle citrus undertone, but it's not too strong. It seems to have a slightly more lemongrass scent than grapefruit. I spray it on once in the morning and then it lasts all day. The scent is not overpowering but it does last a very long time. While the size is small, the bottle lasts a long time making it a high value product. It fits perfectly in my gym bag and when I'm crunched on time, it makes smelling fresh fast and easy. The spray was relatively inexpensive so I decided to give it a try and I am so glad I did. You can check out Dove at follow them on Twitter at twitter.I bought this spray after I had an excellent first experience with dove deodorant. If not, track me down – I’ll be reeking from this until I run out. Verdict: this is an all-around awesome product, which makes it all the more tragic that it’s discontinued. Performance wise, good longevity and projection. Also, another one of the ingredients – Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane – turns out to be a UVA absorber. I was curious to what in the formula made this moisturizing, and found a great article explaining glycerin, which is what Dove thinks will help you out. Well, if they’re there, they’re not noticeable it doesn’t feel sticky or heavy. Something interesting about this line is that is claims to have moisturizing elements. Together the two sides dance beautifully into a fresh, fun summer scent that is refreshing and gorgeous. However, there’s also a slightly white-floral side to this scent, like burying your face into a garden and really inhaling the flowers. Sometime it smells like straight on spraying yourself with juice. The nectarine Dove used in Go Fresh Burst is the juiciest, most ripe citrus scent you could imagine. The scent for Go Fresh Burst doesn’t aim to be complicated or sophisticated, but it is anyway. 89 mL is the equivalent of a travel size Bath & Body Works fine fragrance mist, and those are really tiny. I have to say that I’m a bit confused at the size of this product, or rather the lack of a larger one. The pump squirts quite a bit of product but in very short, snappy bursts. The cap and neck are a pale orange, and the liquid inside is peachy in colour. The wraparound sticker reads (excluding the French): Dove / go fresh / body mist / burst / nectarine & white ginger scent / hint of moisture / 89 mL. Very simple packaging that manages to cater correctly to the market it’s meant for – older women. The bottle for Go Fresh Burst is of the old Dove style, not the new, more angular one. Since this is my first purchase in too long (like, at least two weeks), I’m excusing the concentration (Dove, if you’re listening, I will buy every bottle of Go Fresh Burst EDT you ever make) to talk about it: this is my review for Dove’s 89 mL Go Fresh Burst body mist, which retails for $2.99 (and is a great tongue twister). And then, the wait was over – I had it! Muhahaha! I actively tracked the package over the next week, impatiently awaiting my bottle. And don’t even get me started on Amazon.ca – ugh.īut then, I found London Drugs, and realized that – *gasp* – they have Go Fresh Burst – and it’s on sale! Given, I don’t exactly know where they’re from (London?) or why they have free Canadian shipping (London, Canada?). So then I wondered, what about ordering it online? The problem was (is, and always will be) that Amazon doesn’t ship most fragrances to Canada, and everyone knows that Amazon is where you go for discontinued products (right?). The antiperspirant works fine, but… It’s just not the same. I bought it, was excited about it for about 2.1 seconds, and then I wasn’t. It was already too late to drive to Shoppers, since they hadn’t had it in stock in months.Īt first, I thought the antiperspirant in the scent would be enough. The moment I realized the finality of the Dove Go Fresh Burst being discontinued, I began researching my options for creating a stockpile. I’ve loved Dove’s Go Fresh Burst since my mom bought a bottle ages ago, so I was obviously in denial when I couldn’t find it on the shelf in the drugstore anymore. Remember when I said I wouldn’t buy any new body mists? Yeah. I’ve changed, and so have my views! Why not take a look at some of my newer content? Thanks for stopping by! Heads up! This article is quite old, and the information, links and opinions expressed in it may not be accurate anymore.
