favorite smell from bath and body works
 
Alrighty chickie bears and dudes..

I don't know if they carry it anymore--but I like green apple

PenguinTrax 05-09-2001 11:49 AM

I have to be honest, I have a REALLY good sniffer...I can ID all different kinds of scents, etc. and I have found that the B&BW stuff all smells the same once the initial burst of 'other' smell wears off. That, and their stuff makes me itch.

I wish B&BW would not rotate their scents out so fast and furiously! But my CURRENT fave smell is Warm Vanilla Sugar. I HOPE THEY DO NOT GET RID OF THAT!!

What smells don't I like would be an easier way to narrow this topic down.
I suppose I'll list them in order...
Bath and Body Works
1. Fresia
2. Honeysuckle
3. Sun Ripened Raspberry
4. Daffodil Field
Victoria's Secret
1. Glazed Raspberry - they discontinued it
2. Sweet Temptation
3. Heavenly

I wonder who thought about the body-wash concept . . . its a far cry from perfume but smells better.

It's a great idea.

The fruit based scents makes you seem good enough to eat . . . http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif so keep wearing them!

newbie 05-09-2001 04:15 PM

Butter Cookie
Sun-Ripened Rasberry

Other than that...I don't really like many B&BW scents...

But my faves all time are:
Clinique Happy
YSL Babydoll (MMM!)
Prescriptives Calyx (yummy, yummy!)
CK One

Can you tell that I like citrus scents?! I can't wait to try the new Gap Scent: So Pink (it's supposed to be grapefruit-scented!)

Cucumber Melon is my all-time favorite.

USFSDTAlum 05-10-2001 12:28 AM

Sunsweet Kiwi is summer everyday body splash.. and Sweet pea is my winter everyday body splash. When i am going somewhere nice I usually wear perfume, which depends on where i am going on what time of the year it is.

It rocks because I smell like cookies all day!!LOL

My fave BBW scent is definitely Cotton Blossom. Barbara, have you tried this one? It doesn't change scent and it lasts all day, even if you just use the lotion. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

And now - {sob} http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif let's have a moment of silence for the late, lamented and sorely missed Vanilla Lace from Victoria's Secret. Whoever decided to discontinue this needs hit over the head with a big pot.

lilmama_26 05-10-2001 09:14 PM

My faves are:

1. Cotton Blossom (my all-time favorite!)
2. Sweet Pea
3. Cucumber Melon
4. Warm Vanilla Sugar (def. good for the winter)

peace,

Hey y'all, thanks so much for welcoming my daughter! She's just now home from school for a month and will then work in Florida until school starts and she moves into the AOPi House.

I wanted to tell everyone that you can get a lot of the discontinued B&B scents on eBay! Sometimes I think that the reason that some scents disappear so fast is that certain people buy them up and resell them on the secondary market.

I'm waiting to see if B&B brings back those fantabulous pumpkin-and-caramel scented candles for fall. Oh, I hope so!!!!!!

LexiKD 05-10-2001 11:08 PM

Pearberry is pretty great, but I have fallen in love with Coconut for the summer time beachy smell!

CONTENTASCANBE 05-11-2001 12:23 AM

B&BW-Too many fruity Smells
Sweet Pea (Smells like Pretty N Pink)

In no particular order....

1. Sparkling Green Apple
2. Blazin' Blueberry
3. Tangerine Spice

http://www.plauder-smilies.de/happy/coffee.gif

I used to own some of that iced pineapple and I loved it until (no joke) one day this really wierd guy came to school wearing it!!!Ever since then it's seemed much less feminine and appealing to me...

Carrieboberry 05-13-2001 04:45 AM

PEARBERRY.....just smelling that stuff puts me in a great mood.

B&BW had a sale last summer and I just about bought out their entire Pearberry collection. It was sad. I haven't been in there in a while though--what new scents are the best? I want to know! Also, do y'all know if they have a website where you can buy online? That would be the coolest. Thanks chicas! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

USFSDTAlum 05-13-2001 01:10 PM

B&BW does not have a website, however, After an unfortunate sunsweet kiwi incident where i almost spazzed out in the store b/c they didn't have any in stock and claimed it to be 'discontinued" but attempted to reassure me by saying 'we don't think its discontinued for good, just for the summer' (girls- i was hyperventialting-- can you say, and the award goes to...) anyway...they gave me the 800 number where you can order direct from (and even with shipping they actually had better prices (promotions) then in the store, plus shipping which she told me would take upwards of a week, actually arrived in 2 days. Here's the number: 800-518-3616.

Hi girls!!

Thank you so much soror6, sigmagrrl, and carnation!! I remembered all your raving about Warm Vanilla Sugar, and after my finals were over---I raced to the B and BW store!!!

They are having an awesome sale now! So many things are on sale. For ex: 5 little things are for 9.99 (for ex: little lotions, little body washes, etc.). And, the regular sized (10 oz.) are 3 for 24 dollars!! You save approx. 8 bucks! So...I picked up the WARM VANILLA SUGAR (body splash, cream, wash) after all your raves...and it's sooooo awesome! I usually hate vanilla scents, but this one won me over!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

So thanks gals! LOL, my bf is especially partial to Warm Vanilla Sugar http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif.

Well...does the prez of B&BW have a daugher?? We are obviously all adding to her future inheritance! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

carnation 06-22-2001 03:23 PM

Bulletin! I've been sitting next to a B&B manager in a seminar all week and she says that they're discontinuing several of their scents this month. Some names I remember are Freesia, Green Apple, Ginger Lime, and Toasted Hazelnut. She says the sale offers just about anything in those lines at 5 for $19.99. I'm going to go check out their sale!

kkgkutie 06-22-2001 07:59 PM

I absolutely LOVE Plumeria... but when I'm in the mood for a change I'll try Cotton Blossom. I liked it so much I got a set for my mom and she loved it! Suprising since aint NOBODY...and I do mean NOBODY pickier than my momma http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif Orange Blossom is kinda nice as well...

Haha-that is exactly what I thought when I saw the topic! Must be a Sigma thing-what chapter are you from?

PinkStar17 06-27-2001 04:55 AM

WELLLLL..
i can ramble off every name of every current bath and body works scent..cause i work there!!
http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
and let me tell u..it gets to u after a while.. they all start to smell the same..and i can tell what flavors are combinations of older scents too..
ALSO.. victoria secret is from the same company (the limited owns both and structure, lerner NYCco.,limited stores, and lane bryant.)
soooo many scents from victorias secret will smell like BBW and so forth..

for example: honeyed almond (new scent) is a mix between toasted hazelnut, creamy coconut
orange blossom: cotton blossum and tangerine spice

also many of the holiday scents and discontinued scents are boxed up and sent to the nearby warehouse where they are sent back to the store at certain promotions times..like summer(NOW) and right after christmas..ull find deals like buy one get one free of all the discontinued scents like green apple, and many older scents..at great deals..

but many of the scents that hvae been discontinued can be made in a way.. by mixing a few scents..if u need the 411 on anything in particular! let me know...ill be happy to share http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

oh yes and i complained about the discontiuing of vanilla lace from victoria..it was my FAVORITE!!! BUT if u go to Body Shop..which is a similar store..their vanilla is the closest ive ever smelled to vanilla lace http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
and my favorite BBW scent for now..i change my mind every time im at work..LOL is juniper breeze..
