I never thought I would want to smell like a strawberry pound cake or a blueberry pancake, but it turns out I do occasionally.
I was never a fan of Champagne Toast or Bubbly Rosé. I still only like them in certain things. I never used to look for them in the stores or buy anything from the lines. Now, I look for the soap, car scents, candles and wallflowers lol
Rose is nice smell like how a classy feminine female should smell u can't tell if it's a mist or perfume so go 🌹 u are sexy 🔥.
Bonnie every time you say you don’t like hibiscus paradise my heart breaks a little 😜
Can't stand hibiscus paradise,i don't like most coconut, It makes me feel sick but I love to eat/drinks 🥥 coconut 🤷♀️
I used to wear Fantasque, Hawaiian White Ginger, Sweet Honesty, and Jordache were my go to scents years ago. I've always been a floral scent preference girl myself. I do try and sniff before buying so I don't buy something I don't love though too. I am willing to buy it if I like it in store even if not in that shopping trip. Hibiscus is actually my fave flower scent but for me It's Moonlight Path all the way. Everything I have gets used and as often as I can. The one type of scent that will always be a no for me and I won't even test??? Anything coffee related. That stuff makes me nauseous and if I get to close actually doing the dirty deed onto nearby surfaces. I've never had a headache or physical response of any kind other than that so I can I am lucky. I just love on the scents I do love and won't hate you for not liking my fave flower…lol.
I CAN NOT STAND CUCUMBER MELON NEVER HAVE LIKED IT NEVER WILL HIBISCUS PARADISE I KINDA LIKE
I CAN DO SOME ROSE SCENTS MIXED WITH VANILLA OR THE RIGHT FRUIT
Hello Mz Bonnie I'm not into the floral scents at all but I do love Fall In Bloom, You're The One and I absolutely don't like Fairytale and Rose and still don't like them. ❤
Hi Bonnie, yes that has definitely happened to me. Some scents either were too strong or too sweet. Some even made me feel sick to my stomach when I wore them. I think as we get older our sense of smell changes. I can take florals but not as much depending on how strong it is. I used to love Oahu Sunset & last season I bought it again & hate it now. No surprise you don't like Cucumber Melon, lol. Ty for the great review. 🤗💕💕
I HAVE TO BE IN THE MOOD FOR GOURMAND FOODIE SCENTS
LOL, that's how I feel about Life of the Party! It was a blind buy I almost exchanged! 😄
Chloe! Yes!! Lol
My fav of all time, number 1 is Hisbiscus Paradise. Fell in love 1st sniff, still in love and will wear til forever.
Hi Bonnie
Back in 2010 bath and body works had a summer vanillas line that was vanilla cherry, vanilla berry, vanilla lemon, and vanilla coconut. I remember them being really popular back then when I was in school! Wish they would bring that line back
I blind bought Wrapped in Vanilla and didn't like it because it smelled like Christmas Cookies/Coconut Cream Pie/Joy Sugared Snickerdoodle. They all smell like buttery coconut popcorn :(. Am not able to get the other notes in the fragrance. Did not have an impression of Warm Vanilla Sugar as I could barely smell both last year and this year's versions. Then I managed to get a mini in a much older version, and wow, I do like it now! Same with Strawberry Pound Cake. Did not like it when I sniffed it in store a year back. But I came by different versions of it, and now suddenly, it's one of my favorites 🙂 to me, the drydown of both SPC and Strawberry Snowflakes smells like Bonfire Bash. Which I also didn't like at first, but find comforting now. So weird. I never thought I liked rose or jasmine but most of the mists I like have either note. They're very fragrant when done right.
I loved Vanilla Fields from Coty in the 90's. Now about thirty years later, I hate it!! Lol.
I hope Georgia Peach & Sweet Tea comes back
Agree on the hibiscus … Ech! And ive never smelled cuke-melon in all my years.. But yes my nose seems to change over time. But i just cannot get into Rose or Eucalyptus for body care.
I keep trying to like Wrapped in Vanilla and the shower gel is wonderful but the mist has this burnt cinnamon cracker smell and I just don't like the mist. Warm Vanilla Sugar gets a bad rap sometimes but I still love it and find it comforting at night. Edited to add, I used to wear Chloe a lot too lol.
i remember when you reviewed butterfly and was hoping you’d like it because i bought one too and thought it smelled amazing. yay that you came around to loving it! it’s also my signature spring scent !
I hated into the night it was way to loud to me I guess because I was just getting into fragrance but I lady come into my work place one day wearing it and I instantly recognized it and wanted it back in my collection now I do have to be in the mood to wear it but it's definitely a favorite now
Rose is one of the first mists I bought when i started getting into B&BW. 🌹🌹🌹 It's feminine and timeless. I used to hate Japanese Cherry Blossom but i like now. 😬😂
When I first sniffed Starlit Night this year, I thought it smelled like awful floral, I revisited it & now I have 5 back ups. That’s all she wrote😭😂
You’re the one is a scent I plan to be my main fragrance in February. I think it’s a nice rose perfume scent 🌹 ✨
Bonnie please try Goosecreek Marshmellow Sugar lotion. It smells like marshmellow, vanilla with some banana mixed in and it's heavenly! My daughter thinks it smells like banana too, even though it doesn't list that as a fragrance note. It's sooo good and long lasting too! I think it may be close to what you're looking for. They had it in the fragrance mist last year as well but I haven't seen it listed for a long time. The fragrance mist was to die for it smelled so yummy and it was pretty strong too. I don't know if Goosecreek decided to stop making their fragrance mists or what.
This happens to me all the time with BBW. Most recently it was dream bright. It smelled so musky and blah to me. But after I got the make joy happen box and sat and smelled it, it just smelled like an amazing winter berry scent. Now I love it.
More commonly I just can't smell things much in store and it smells boring and I get it home and freaking love it. Fireside flurries shocked me and starlit night. 🤤
Summer Melody when I smelled it I thought it was horrible and boring. When it warmed up on skin it turned amazing and it lasts. I was so shocked to love it so much
I use to despise florals. Now I like them. I figured out I have to wear them in the winter time or I’ll get a headache. So interesting. Then there are scents I can wear all year around.
Pink Cashmere is my all time favorite! One day I ordered Pink Chiffon by mistake because I got the names mixed up. I hated Pink Chiffon & it sat unused for a few years. I tried it again during the pandemic & now it's one of my favorites.
I've always loved cucumber melon, their peach scents I have to mix with a different scent to like it.
Hi Bonnie, I wrote in my comments for a Valentine's Day scent that Bath and Body should offer a Rose and Chocolate scent. What's more evocative for Valentines day …getting a heart shaped box of chocolates, and a bouquet of roses ! Funny, my son has fond memories of me wearing cucumber melon when he was little, he loves that scent ! I also like the Hibiscus spray too, but I will not drink any tea that contains hibiscus…too tart ! Yes, Our taste in scents can change as we get older. I'm afraid that the "Foodie" scents may be too "Young" for my age. I do love Dahlia,and Pure Wonder though. I say wear whatever makes you happy ! Fun video !
I love sooo many scents, foods, floral etc
But I think for my.floral it has to smell fresh like the pink Lilly and bamboo
Or sweeter like whipped vanilla rose
Your moms said unh unh get someone else to do it! 😂
Oh my God rose….I cannot!!!! If there ever was a scent I will not, cannot, won't ever gravitate to is that🤮 butterfly gave me a headache when I tried it
Did not care for the smell of eucalyptus but I do like it on the BBW scents. Have it in my car scent and love to breathe it in after a day of work.
Bonnie I swear, you always come up with fun videos like no other YouTubers LMBO
This was a fun video Bonnie!! I hate Dahlia and I’ve never came around to like it lol
I have the mini mist and I’ll spray it every few months on myself and wear it thinking maybe I’ll like it but nope 😂
I hated sweet Whisky and You’re the One but I love both of them now. I have to pair You’re the One with either Strawberry, Strawberry Soda or Cotton Candy Champagne to sweeten it up.
'Hello Beautiful' grew on me. I'm wearing it today and I really like it! It didn't impress me at all the first time I smelled it.
Hey Bonnie! I’m still using the perfumes you mentioned 😂 and I love florals. My tastes have changed too I’m 55! but I am still old school and think a lot of the new stuff smells the same and I definitely have some BBW fragrances that I buy over and over again and use all the time even if I try some of them new ones. They seem to have ALOT of repackaged scents now over and over!! What’s up with that??
oo yes! a chocolate rose or a chocolate strawberry would be so nice for valentines day🥰
love the buttercream line idea too!
a scent i loved but now hate: one in a million- idk what happened but i think being on my period changed my scent taste because as soon as that was over i hated the smell of it🤣
a scent i hated but now like: eucalyptus lavender. – always thought eucalyptus was too strong to enjoy, but since going back to work after christmas its been so relaxing when mixed with lavender 🌿
You should do a BBW Wishlist video! All of the body care/candle scents you wish they would do. Thanks for the great video, as always!
Its happening to me A LOT lately😂 I hated Pinkberry Clouds when it launched a few years ago and now it's in my top 5🤷♀️ I'm experimenting with a few florals and perfumy scents, I got Dream Bright, Pure Wonder, and Fall in Bloom during SAS for super cheap and I'm liking them!! Crazy how our tastes change, huh?!!…yeah, Sugar Coated is my #1 favorite mist and is super long lasting..I did go on Ebay and snagged 8 more because I went through a whole bottle in one month🤣🤣🤣
7:05 Bonnie, B&BW did make a chocolate rose scent before. Well, sort of. Remember Whipped Rose Latte? It was a cocoa powder and rosy vanilla scent.
I loved Forever Red when it first came out now I just can’t enjoy it like I did. I’m more in to fresh scents now and some interesting florals. I have t gotten in to foodie scents yet.
Champagne Toast! I used to really dislike it but I forced myself to buy it this past December during the big mist sale. I love it now!
Hi Bonnie! I don't like Hibiscus 🌺🏝 Paradise either. I'm not a fan of peach 🍑 scents either; although I can be swayed if it's paired with a more favorable note. Sometimes certain notes smell better with other notes & make the overall end game more likable.
I got sick of Winter Candy 🍬 ❄️🍎 Apple & returned it. Then I went back and bought more! Lol 🤣🤣
My scent preferences are like the weather.
Tfs Bonnie!
I didn’t buy the Wrapped in Vanilla shower gel because when I used it at the store ALL I smelled was Christmas Cookies and I already had enough of that shower gel from last year. The store sales associate purposely washed her hands with it when I told her and then she also agreed it was Christmas Cookies. I have never smelled Confetti Cake Pop so I have no idea what that smells like.
