Back to the top!;) I'm bringing it back because with all these daughters, I'll be making several treks to the mall B and B for the holidays.

Does anyone know the latest scents? Is Warm Vanilla Sugar still around? I know I'll have to get Coconut for one but I'm open for the rest. What's fantastic?

Have y'all tried their various creamy caramel candles? Those are magic--you can smell them for hours after you blow them out! I really stocked up this year because you can only get them through Halloween.

My gf has gotten Sun Ripened Raspberry and I think it smell dang good.
By the way what ever happened to ASLFrose? Name change or just gave up on GC?

carnation 10-15-2001 01:13 PM

Hi, zntke!

No name change, it's just that a sorority office+the honors program+parttime work+various other clubs mean that she doesn't get online much except for classwork.

Heck, we just saw her this past weekend for the first time since rush 2 months ago!:rolleyes:

Dejajeva 10-15-2001 01:14 PM

Warm Vanilla Sugar. The name just drips goodness doesn't it.
Yummy. I've never seen it around- maybe I should put it on my christmas list.
:)

I love :

B&BW- Cotton Blossom
Freesia

Vic. Secret- Secret Crush
Green Apple (I don't know if they still have it or not)


I really don't like pear scents.

TechAPhi 10-15-2001 01:17 PM

All time fave: Cucumber-Melon

DGPhoney: I loved the pineapple too! I was sorry to see it go. :)

Oh I was just wondering. Just thought that she doesn't take after her mother if she doesn't post on greekchat. lol

UMgirl 10-15-2001 02:04 PM

Gotta go with Vanilla and White Musk

AOPiLaLa 10-15-2001 02:41 PM

Oh, I LOVE Bath and Body works! My favorites at this very moment are

1. Sweet Pea
2. Cucumber Melon

and from Body Shop I like
1. Oceania

I am really not a fan of anything Vanilla--I think it stems from an old boyfriend who gave me this HUGE basket of vanilla B & B stuff and then broke up with me. Just don't like that smell anymore!

I am thinking I might have to run out and get cotton blossom

AOIIBrandi 10-15-2001 03:00 PM

Favorite B&BW have to be:

SunRipened Rasberry
Cucumber Melon
I also used to like one called Ocean Breeze, but discontinued:(

But I think my all time favorite is from Victoria's Secret:

Love Spell

ladybug1116 10-15-2001 10:40 PM

My signature scent is Plumeria but I also use Juniper Breeze and Cucumber Melon on occasion. :)

Yea someone liked the pinneaple. I thought it was awesome, sad though they don't even have anything simialr, but there is one called hawaiian Ginger put out by calgon and it smells similar !!! Another great one!!!

ees125 10-16-2001 11:37 AM

Favorite has to be Daffodils! Sunripened Raspberry comes in second. (Jeez all I need is a "green" flavor and I'll have our colors):rolleyes:

erniegurl00 10-16-2001 11:59 AM

A few years ago I couldn't get enough of B&BW, but I quickly left when I found that wonderful store called Victoria Secret (or Vicky's as I lovingly call it :)) I LOVE Love Spell from VS!!!

KappaStargirl 10-17-2001 05:07 PM

Don't tell my fiance I'm posting to this...he already can't walk in the bathroom 'cause it's full of my perfumes and lotions!

B&BW
*Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin (discontinued, but if you're lucky you can still find it at sales)
*Country Apple--I wore this ALL the time in college and my friends could practically smell me coming)

Victoria's Secret
*LOVE SPELL...all other VSG scents pale by comparison :)
*Dream Angels Heavenly is pretty good too

Others:
*Coco Chanel...the fastest way to my heart
*Tiffany...unfortunately, you can't get it at Sephora anymore, you have to go to a Tiffany and Co. store, but it is SO worth it
*Calvin Klein Truth

Dejajeva 10-17-2001 05:13 PM

I wish I had a signature scent.
I don't know what I like enough to wear it all the time.

:)

Always,
Jessica

xok85xo 10-17-2001 06:40 PM

B&BW:
I'm Hooked on warm vanilla sugar, and creamy coconut..But they have the new honeysuckle, which has always been one of my favorite scents!

VS-
Always been a huge fan of the pear, but i absolutely love heavenly, and no offense to anyone that likes love spell, but I can't STAND the smell of it, I think it smells like minute maid fruit punch!

Other scents:
absolute favorite perfume is thierry mugler angel..mmm so yummy
gap-dream
lolita lempicka

TechAPhi 10-17-2001 06:54 PM

Does anyone remember the B&BW Scent...

Favorite from B&BW:

Gingham


This summer I stopped into a B&BW that's close to my house. As I was looking around, I happened to ask the sales lady if they still carried it. She said no and that it was discontinued. I threw a fit. This is like the only scent I will wear from that store. So about 2 weeks later, I was at the mall and just happen to go into the B&BW that was there. I was looking around and I happened to mention to this sales person that my favorite scent was discontinued. The sales person looked at me like I was crazy and said that he never heard that. Just so happened he had one last box of Gingham in the store. Well, I just couldn't let it stay in the store all by it self,now could I? :D The best 22.50 I have every spent

AOIIAngel 10-17-2001 11:52 PM

Strawberry Lemonade was my favorite! (and they discontinued it!) But The cucumber melon and raspberry are my all time faves, but right now I am so into vanilla!

carnation 10-18-2001 12:52 PM

AOII Angel! My husband just walked in from the mall and tossed me a brochure that says you can order discontinued scents by phone, including Strawberry Lemonade! Others are Sparkling Green Apple, May Bouquet, Vanilla Bean, and White Gardenia--there are a bunch more here! Phone number: 800-518-3616.

TriSigmaTX 02-18-2002 12:44 AM

Sweet Pea
Pear Berry
Vanilla Cinnamon
Tangerine Spice
Hazelnut

My favs :)

ilovemyglo 02-18-2002 03:15 AM

HONEYSUCKLE

I like Country apple and sunripened rasberry too

ansturge 02-18-2002 03:23 AM

orange blossom

its light, fresh and wakes me up in the mornings!!

AOX81 02-20-2002 09:23 AM

It used to be Peach but they don't sell it anymore...now it is Cucumber Melon...Yummy :)

KarenC725 02-20-2002 10:01 AM

Pretty traditional, I love the vanilla.

ansturge 02-20-2002 12:03 PM

ya know i dont know where i heard this BUT apparently guys are turned on by the vanilla smell. Its one of those subconscious things...

but hey the next time anyone is trying to be romantic vanilla lotion or a vanilla scented candle cant hurt!!!


Haven't tried it myself though -- but i would be interested in seeing if it works :D

carnation 09-15-2002 02:09 PM

Creamy caramel candle alert!

I was just in B&B and they had the fall-only creamy caramel candles. People, these candles make your house smell yummy for hours. However, eBayers snap them up by the end of September to sell them online and you can't get them at a decent price the rest of the year.

If you like 'em, take it from someone who missed out last year by waiting until October...now's the time!:)

SincereDesire 09-15-2002 02:40 PM

I thought I was the only one who threw store fits over discontinued scents!


And I'll also have a weird thing where I like something in the soap, but not in the cologne or lotion and vice versa.
ANYhow, I love:

Warm Vanilla Sugar (soap)
that one all natural Mint scent that they had for like a hot second- the lotion made my skin all cool and refreshed
Orange Blossom (the Soap&Gel, NOT the cologne)

Just about all of the others make me itch.
My sister is a devoted Freesia fan though, she's loved it since B&BW came out in our city.


Question: how far back can you order a discontinued scent? Months? Years? or Weeks?

chideltjen 09-15-2002 02:41 PM

i love Seaspray... it's a discontinued one they bring back once in a blue moon. It used to be a regular when they first opened a store in my hometown. Raspberry and sweet pea are the ones i wear the most often now.

but to completely change the scent subject: my absolute fav is Dream by Gap.

Hootie 09-16-2002 01:49 AM

Midnight Jasmin is my fav right now...I heard it's going to be discontinued...WHY DO THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO DISCONTINUE MY FAVS?!?!?!

Hootie:(

Excelsior301 09-16-2002 02:00 AM

My new favorite is the new scent Cool Citrus Cream
My all-time favorites are Warm Vanilla Sugar, Coconut Cream, and Pearberry
Those new caramel candles are quite delicious smelling:p
Luckily, I work for B&BW, so I'm going to snag up as much as I possibly can:)

KarenC725 09-16-2002 11:47 PM

In body spray and such, sweet pea. I love their perfume "Love" though.

GiantsChic 09-17-2002 12:58 AM

they have so many great scents there, but my current fav. is nightblooming jasmine... love that scent :)

TaraHopeful 09-17-2002 05:24 PM

cucumber melon & sweet pea

carnation 12-27-2002 11:52 PM

Booo!

Ballerina is working at B&BW and she was naming several scents that are to be discontinued. They include Creamy Coconut, Pearberry, and Country Apple. I wish they'd stop discontinuing popular scents!

wrigley 12-28-2002 12:18 AM

A moment of silence for our favorite discontinued scents.

I miss toasted hazelnut.

MTSUGURL 12-28-2002 04:11 AM

I went into BBW tonight and saw:
 
Honeysuckle
Sea Spray
Peach Nectar

And they're getting in MORE discontinued scents for a January sale...

Keep your eyes open next month, ladies!!!
:D
