Warm Vanilla Sugar used to be my fave B&BW scent, so I asked for some of the body cream for Christmas... I'm pretty sure they changed their formula because it does not smell the same way it used to! :thumbdown: I just got some Cool Citrus Basil body cream and shower gel... along with a White Citrus shower gel and I LOOOOOVE them. I know the basil sounds weird, but I promise it doesn't smell too "herby" - just light and fresh... reminds me of summer! What are your fave scents?

Sweet Pea is my A-#1 scent for all of time.
I also enjoy sea island cotton and dancing waters.

My favorite was Sheer Freesia. They got rid of it. Not happy about that. Now I love P.S. I Love You and the Secret Wonderland

I want to smell their new scents! Is P.S. I Love You a "perfumey" scent?

It's been a few years, but the Pumpkin was my fav...

I used to get a different scent for each long business trip I'd take (was gone for 4-6 weeks at a time)... so each time I smell that scent, it reminds me of that trip... for example Pumpkin was when I was in New Milford, CT; Strawberries was for when I was in Everett, WA; the cotton one when I was in Beech Island, SC...

awww! It's amazing how certain scents can be linked so strongly with certain memories/feelings.

I dont know how to describe it. It is flowery I think. I believe it is listed under their romantic scents in the store though.

Here is what it says on the website:

modern blend of rose – the universal symbol of love – with sexy golden amber, addictive white Riesling and exotic incense.

My husband and I went to the Premeir Outlets here in Orlando the other day and they have a Bath & Body Works outlet store there. There is a new scent coming out which smells soooo good!!

It is called Carried Away and here is what it says on the website:

lush raspberries and juicy pear nectar with white jasmine and whipped vanilla

It smells soooo yummy!! Could become my new favorite but probably is just a seasonal scent.

Depends on the season for me

I love Japanese Cherry Blossom, Cotton Blossom, Rainkissed Leaves (for summer..it's discontinued now I think) and Green Tea and Cucumber

I'll definitely have to smell the PS I Love You next time. Carried Away - raspberry never smells good on me, but it does sound awesome! I dont know how to describe it. It is flowery I think. I believe it is listed under their romantic scents in the store though.

I just looked on the website to see what all is on there and found they still have some Sheer Freesia left on there and it is on clearance. So I picked up some. I cant wait to get it in!!

I love Warm Vanilla Sugar but it makes me crave for chocolate everytime I take a shower.... :oso I love Rice Flower and Shea, and those Coconut Vanilla from last summer :)

I hate when they discontinue the scents you are in love with. Has happened to me many times. I love fruity scents so my favorites are Country Apple (I keep this one at work and every single time I put it on someone comments on how much they love it), Juniper Breeze, Pearberry, Mango Mandarin, Warm Vanilla Sugar, Sweat Pea, Coconut Lime Verbena (this smells so fresh) and Cucumber Melon. I am a big Bath and Body Works fan. :thumbup: I have an entire shelf in my linen closet full of lotions, body gel, bubble bath, etc. lol

I'm seasonal with my scents... I like Coconut Vanilla or Strawberry Lemonade in the summer, Orange Sapphire in the spring, Pink Grapefruit pretty much any time, Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin in the fall, Vanilla Bean Noel or Winter Candy Apple in the winter.

I also like Sweet Pea and Sweet Freesia.

Cherry Blossem, and before that it was Sheer Fresia. Matthias got me Warm Vanilla Sugar for Christmas, but it wasn't quite the scent he wanted, so I mix it with a little bit of the Mentha Body (which has a peppermint smell). I just use the Mentha on my hands and then the Warm Vanilla sugar on my arms and elbows and it gives off almost the scent he wanted. He smelled it one time randomly while he was driving his motorcycle and so he's been trying to find it. For him to figure out a mixture of lotions is kind of a big deal.

It's always been Moonlight Path. Then my MIL got me some soap for Christmas in the Japanese Cherry Blossom scent and I really like that too...but not for lotion/bodywash or spray wear...it would be too strong...I like it just as a hand washing soap for occasional scent!!!

My favorite for the longest time was Gardenia (was just that, no nifty name lol) but alas it is gone. My favorites now are Vanilla Bean Noel and Velvet Tuberose.

Coconut Lime Verbena is my favorite; unfortunately the smell reminds Joel of an old girlfriend. :(

So I settled instead of Tahiti Sweetie from their True Blue Spa collection.

Their new spring arrivals look yummy though.

I've always done Warm Vanilla Sugar and Cucumber Melon for my handsoaps, but a few months back I went in and actually sniffed at some of the other fragrances. The Lime Basil...awesome for the kitchen!

My new love is Sensual Amber. Very hearthy smelling. I actully love shaving my legs with the shower cream. My whole family loves the way it smells...Michael wants to practically eat me up when I walk into the room after applying the lotion to hands.

Sweet Pea is my scent. There are others I like, but I always buy Sweet Pea.

My very very favorite was the one from 2-3 Christmas' ago, called Simply Divine Cherry Pie. OMG, it has the best cherry smell. I have one lotion left in that scent. I cherish it and use on days that I need a pick-me-up. I wish I had some body wash in that scent. :(

I also loved pearberry, and it was my hubby's favorite, so that new Carried Away sounds promising! :) I have a couple pearberry lotions still. I just savor my supply.

My fave was the Coconut, before the Coconut Lime Verbena, but I'm not crazy about that one.

Mine is Warm Vanilla Bean. I love that scent. Too bad its only available around Christmas. So this year my mom and sister bought me the complete collection. I was in heaven you should of seen me jumping up and down. I wear it every day now.

My favorite, Fun Frosted Cranberry, was discontinued a couple years ago. I still have a liiiiiittle bit left of the body spray. I'll be sad when it's gone. I got a gift card for B&W for Christmas and got some of the Winter Wonderland...I like it, but it's just not the same!

Well I'm a bit of a junkie, so this may be long but....based on your likes and dislikes, I really think you'll love my fave--lemongrass sage. Tab turned me onto it back in 2005 and it is AMAZING. They only sell it online, but I'll catch their buy 3 get 2 free sales (they run 3/2 when they run 3/3 on the signature scents) and I'll try to couple it up with free shipping or something.

Anyway, I don't like floral scents or musky scents, or even citrus. That narrows it down quite a bit for me. I love nature scents that aren't floral, like eucalyptus and such. Lemongrass sage is awesome; when I use the lotion at work everyone walks by and says "What is that? It smells so good!"

Because I can't buy a full line of that, I do keep a few other scents in rotation. I alternate days bodywash/bodycream/bodyspray with 2 scents: dark kiss and forever sunshine. The forever sunshine reminds me of Clinique Happy and the dark kiss reminds me of a berry vanilla cotton candy scent. I find if I use a different scent every day I can smell it better.

I also have a set of warm vanilla sugar for days when I don't want to smell very strong and a set of coconut for the summer (but I only have that because it was in one of the bonus bags).

Carried away is a really nice scent actually...I always buy their 99 cent preview sample sizes because they fit perfect in my purse, and I let Naomi have them too so she can be like mommy.

Just wanted to let you in on the secret - most of the time when they stop selling the scents in stores, it is still available online only! Sheer Freesia is my ALLTIME FAVORITE and is available online only now. I get my fix of it by ordering it online! :)

Sweet Pea is my all time fave, and I used to loooove the cucumber melon too. I like to wear the warm vanilla sugar in the wintertime, but I'm getting tired of winter, lol so I've already moved back to sweet pea. Last year I picked up some midnight pomagranite, and I liked that a lot too.

My fave was Blushing Cherry Blossom. They don't make it anymore

Now, for my shower and hand soap I use Lemon Vanilla and sometimes the Berry Vanilla. Love those. As for the lotions and perfumes, they are all a little too strong for me.
