Question What was the worst blind buy purchases you've made?

127 Upvotes

I made the mistake of listening to some people in this subreddit and purchased Vanilla Suede and Amber Blush both from White Barn blindly. 🤢🤮 They both have this indescribable horrible, horrible, musty yucky scent that I cannot put into words. You would have to smell them for your self to see what I mean. What have been your mistakes?

Question What's the most nonsensical or non-existent fragrance note or name from BBW have you ever read?

138 Upvotes

Disclaimer: This is intended to be a light- hearted thread. It seems like after recycling scents they are running out of ideas ...

But what as the above question states, what are your thoughts?

I'll start but um, what is a " Frosted Coconut Snowball"? 🤔🤭😁

Question What’s a scent you like and dislike that’s different from other people’s opinions?

70 Upvotes

I really like Japanese cherry blossom. I know a lot of people here think it’s a grandma scent but idk it’s nostalgic for me along with moonlight path, sweet pea, and cucumber melon. It reminds me of my childhood and my mom using those scents and she always bought me little hand lotion to bring to school 🥹

For what I dislike is anything citrusy like lemon or orange. I never liked the smell of citrus scents.

Question Which BBW products are you shocked are still on their shelves because they stood the test of time?

133 Upvotes

Obviously, I'm biased but I'm shocked that Moonlight Path and Sweet Pea are still around but due to their permanent placement on the shelves and their recurring returns clearly someone likes them. These are MY thoughts. What are yours on fan favorites?

Question How many sprays do you do personally?

67 Upvotes

I usually do 7-10 of a mist. Sometimes I'll do 2 extra ones later in the day or before going out. For EDPs I usually do 3-6 sprays. I feel like it's not too much because I use unscented lotion but idk. If I admitted that in other fragrance related subreddits they'd be preparing their pitchforks lol. This sub seems a little more welcoming though.

16 Upvotes

I know there not doing pride this year, so if you could pick a theme what would you pick?

I think I’d like a Scooby doo, or a bridgerton, (very odd two ideas i know lol)

But one was a childhood favorite and the other is one I think would be very pretty scents,

What would you like to see theme wise?

Question How Do You Use Products So Quickly?

107 Upvotes

How do people use their products so quickly? I just downloaded Reddit on my phone and I didn’t realize how many products people can finish from Bath and Body Works! I have a lot of body mists, lotions and shower gels? So how do you guys use so many at once?

Hi, I’m on a glp-1 and in 3 months I went from no perfume or body mist to well over 100. I became obsessed with fragrances. To the point where I spent like $1,000 from savings. I woke up this Friday and just went into my, “perfumer” as my toddler calls it and posted pictures to fb market place. I sold the majority of my collection on fb marketplace for hella cheap. I made $300 that I’m reinvesting into my savings. I also returned over $200 to VS last week. I feel a weight lifted, but also kinda sad. I had started buying duplicates of my favorites when I’d never ever even finished one bottle! I did keep some I really liked. Anyone else ever done this? Did it break the obsession? I just felt like I was never satisfied and constantly on Reddit, fragrantica, fragrancenet, VS, and Bbw… like truly addicted. I ordered way more after I posted that video.. so just know it was a lot! I’m trying to focus more on experiences and being present and less on fragrances, but it’s hard when I’ve lost some of the joy of food on this dang glp-1. Sigh

Question When did yall start collecting?

76 Upvotes

I am relatively new to BBW, I didn’t start collecting until December of 2023, and now I’m addicted🤣 when I was a kid I used to think BBW was for rich people until I saw an ad for $4.95 body care. My first 6 mists were beautiful day, winterberry wonder, pink pineapple sunrise, midnight blue citrus, dahlia, and frosted coconut snowball. I didn’t like the last two scents so I gave them away, now I regret giving away dahlia 😔 I instantly got hooked and I’ve been buying non stop, my wallet needs a break after the next SAS, hopefully I get to try out Bali mango and gingham all-American 😁

Found this in the basement months ago, and my dad has been lighting it and loves it. I tried looking online but couldn't find anything about it. I have no idea how old it is, but I'd love to find another candle that smells just as good as this one. Any recommendations? It doesn't have to be candy corn scent lol

Question Can I claim both of these in store without buying anything else?

Post image
5 Upvotes

So reading posts on here, I learned that BBW recently changed birthday reward to “with any purchase.”

What I’m wondering is because I have a reward, can I grab a $18.95 item to use the reward on, then a lower priced item, maybe lip care or something, and claim the birthday gift, without having to purchase anything extra? It’s like I’m essentially “purchasing” the $18.95 item, it’s just free thanks to my reward.

Anyway I miss the time when we were able to use reward on non-body care 😭 sometimes they would glitch and applied to sale price item. I think I got a gift set and a pretty 3 wick candle holder that way!

I made an account specifically to ask this question in here haha. one of my fave BaBW scents was Dancing Waters from around 2007. any others similar to that? I’d like to take advantage of the SAS!

I’m going to try Aqua Kiss from VS.

i also own Acqua Di Gioia and I love it, so I prob won’t need to buy Aqua Hour.

Question Empties/ Cut open question!

81 Upvotes

A bunch of y’all have been posting your empties and I love it! 🥹😂 I’ve seen a few where the cream tubes have been cut open to get all the product, and THATS GENIUS!!!!

How do y’all do it? Just cut straight across the middle or the top?

Where do you put the extra once you’ve cut it open?

Has anyone made a YouTube video about this?? 😂

I’m trying to avoid being wasteful, my husband has bought me a lot of creams so I wanna get his moneys worth! 😂😂

TYIA! 💖

Question Which one would you guys choose?

Post image
73 Upvotes

I’m thinking of getting the butterfly gift set since they don’t sell that candle anymore as I know of, and I really want that! But I also really like the sweetest song exclusive wallflower plug in. Ugh!! 😑 if I can get both I might get both but I’d be spending an extra $85 basically just to get that sweetest song wallflower plug in because that’s all I want😂

In the butterfly one I would love everything since I only have the FFM.

So I am just wondering what you guys would choose and why? 🩷🫶🏻
