Bulgari vs. Elemis

NCL recently replaced Elemis products for suites with Bulgari.

Do you prefer one over the other, or have no preference?

A - Elemis

B - Bulgari

C - No preference

I voted for Elemis. After using the Bulgari products, my skin was still chapped and dry.

Both were fine, but I prefer the Elemis, as they were smaller containers, and they would stock up the cabin with extras, which we brought home.

Since the Bulgari were bigger, there were none to bring home. ;)

Elemis

Elemis. I found the Bulgari product scent too strong, though DH liked the shampoo/body wash.

I do like how we had a poof to use with the body wash as opposed to using a facecloth or the overly exfoliating mitt provided in the past.

Did they also get rid of Elemis in the spa?

We have all enjoyed Elemis but the last coupl;etyears the product inside has been changing.

When Elemis was first introduced many folks didin't like it.

But we found that the liquid body soap had a menthol type of feeling to head and body which we quite liked, but others here on CC didn't.

On our cruise Jan we found the product particularity the body lotion had changed and had a different scent that we didn't like plus it seemed much more greasier than the original, so now we don't use it.

But still love the bar soap.

As for Bulgari have not seen or tried the product but do know that Elemis products are not cheap.

You were provided with a poof? We had neither a poof or the mitt.

Love love love Bulgari. This is great news to me.

I am willing to do a test [emoji3]

Probably because of VIP status we got spa products (Bvlgari) in our mini-suite (M6) but I honestly liked Elemis better.

Yes, a white poof was in our two bedroom family suite on the star Jan 31- Feb 2, 2016.

Let's hope it wasn't left by the last cabin occupants!!!

It was in a package labelled Bulgaris, and sealed in a plastic bag :). Otherwise I would have been suspicious lol!

The bathroom amenities they provide, do they replace these daily, as when used? I'm booked in a OS on the Gem.

Thanks Dominic

I much prefer Elemis over Bvlgari. As far as I'm concerned Bvlgari stinks and also kills my asthma. I wish they would give us the choice. We did get a poof on the Escape.

I have used Elemis for years. Let's quantify and call it at least a good 15. It's probably 20 though. I don't know what to say, in the facial skincare line its the line to beat IMO based on the way my face looks.

As for Bulgari, I'll take the Au the Vert body wash as an adornment, any time and any place.

And much of the jewlery too.

Elemis for Face. Bulgari for the Jewels.

That's my vote.

Bulgari is more expensive

Returning home from the cruise with my new Bulgari watch, and a fresh new bottle of Bulgari cologne, I ran out to buy the Green Tea body wash.... I love that smell.

Also feel that the Bulgari lotion had too strong a scent! The white body puff was hanging in the shower but wasn't wrapped---so there it stayed...ewww

We had Bulgari in our balcony cabin on Escape. I've used Elemis stuff off and on over the years since first being introduced on a DCL cruise many years ago. I'd lost interest, but this Bulgari stuff was the bomb! I loved the scent.

We had DOS last week.

Was pleasantly surprised by Bulgari amenities. Already had same at home.

Love it.

FYi....

Anyone who enjoys Stephanie Plum novels ( Janet Evanovich )

This is Ranger's scent and body wash Stephanie is always coveting.

That makes me sad that Ranger's scent would make me cough. :mad: Love her books.

That sounds nice but I will bring one just in case they don't have one in my suite and take the sealed one home.

My preference ranking (1 being best):

1. Bulgari Greentea

2. Elemis

3. Bulgari Classic

On both the Sun (14 days in December 2015) and the Getaway (January 2016), there are 2 versions of Bulgari products in the suites. I like the Bulgari Greentea best, followed by the Elemis products (they still had some left over Elemis inventory in the Sun in early December), then the Bulgari Classic.

Celebrity has been using the Bulgari Classic line for suite guests since 2012.
