Sea Island Cotton

SOOOO YUMMY!!!!

And here are all the other scents I have (and highly recommend!)

Warm Vanilla Sugar (my favorite!)
Coconut Lime Verbena
Fresh Vanilla
Cherry Blossom
White Cherry Blossom (makes an AWESOME bubble bath!)
Mango Mandarin (another favorite!)
Orange Ginger
Country Apple
Magnolia Blossom
Moonlight Path
Sensual Amber
Sun Ripened Raspberry

And I got their Cinnamon Stick candle for Christmas...so yummy!!!!

[LauraA]

Oh yeah, B&BW is awesome! I love the Cherry Blossom, Bergamot Coriander (retired :(), Sun Ripened Raspberries, Tropical Passionfruit, Rosemary Peppermint, Eucalyptus Peppermint...do they still have that one?, Tropical Herbs, Lemongrass Sage, and others that I can't remember. Oh, Sweet Pea. I used to just get that one because I loved it so much. But my all time favorite is the Bergamot Coriander.

Good thread, Kelly!

I was so sure the Sun-Ripened Raspberry was retired, but last time I went, it was there....maybe it left and they brought it back....

The very first scent I tried from B&BW was Eucalyptus Spearmint! YUM! Haven't seen it in years though :(

Hey Laura, you may want to check this out....

I like BBW too! :D My favorite scent of all time is the Warm Vanilla Sugar *yum* and my second favorite is the Coconut Lime Verbena. Black Raspberry Vanilla is a nice "fall" scent too. I always did get a headache though from the Sun-Ripened Raspberry.

When I worked there as seasonal help a few years ago, I fell in love with the Eucalyptus Spearmint, but oh my gosh, anytime I smell that now I get such a headache! :confused:
The best part of working there was the discount the employees get. I spent way more money than I should have in the store. :p

[Kelly]

I spend way more than I should at that store and I don't get employee discounts hehe

I agree about Sun-Ripened Raspberry....its a bit too strong for me sometimes....and if you used too much of the eucalyptus, the same thing....some of those you have to use very little of....even the Fresh Vanilla can be a bit strong at times....but I could just bathe myself in a bottle of Warm Vanilla Sugar!!!! :) YUM!!!! Coconut Lime Verbena is awesome too! I hadn't ever given it a try until my cousin got me a candle for my birthday....so yummy! :)

I must say though....the most AMAZING thing I have EVER smelled, I found in that store! It was the line of ME! Bath products they sold (not sure if they still do but I sure hope so!) My friend and I were there one day and I'd never seen that before so I went to check it out...it was the line of Shower Sherbets. I opened one and I almost passed out, it smelled so good! Hehe....It's the Summer Rain scent...SOOOOOOOOOOO good!!!!! It was $30 for one tub, but the best splurge I'd ever made! It lasted a LONG time! But like I said, I haven't seen it there lately, so I may have to start buying directly from the ME! Bath website.

[LauraA]

Kelly, you must stop tempting me like this! :D (Thanks for the website.)

[CherryCokeGrl]

It is a really neat store and they have such nice things. :) I just wish I didn't have allergies. :( Bummer!

I love the Warm Vanilla Sugar though!! Its my fave and one of the few that doesn't make me sneeze. As soon as I smelled it for the 1st time I was hooked and knew right then that was MY scent, LOL :)

Very cool post BTW!!! :D

[runningtomyKing]

well, i actually work at bath and body works. i've worked there since december and i absolutely looove it! there is so much stuff i want to get though. haha.

fyi
for all those scents that we've discontinued (white cherry blossom, sun ripened raspberry, etc.), we bring them back for the semi annual sales and they're extremely cheap. we have them twice a year, in january and june. the one in june starts on the 2nd...so i HIGHLY suggest going in at that time to hit up the sales!

[Kelly]

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

White Cherry Blossom was discontinued???????? :eek::confused: I didn't even know that!!!!!!

Man I'm glad I stocked up when I did!!!! And thank goodness June is almost here! I'll be sure to stock up more!

Thanks for the heads up! Can you tell me about the ME! Bath stuff...do yall still sell it?

Oh and another tip for everyone...go to the outlets if you have one in your area! SO CHEAP! Granted, they don't have all the scents, but every now and then you'll find a little gem :) I once got $33 worth of stuff for $10!!!! And another time I got $18 worth of stuff for $5!!!!

[runningtomyKing]

white cherry blossom is also one of my absolute favorites! but i've been seeing the boxes come in shipment so we'll be selling it for cheap come june.

you might be able to also get them online. and outlet stores are a definite must!

um, i've actually never heard of the Me products. we bring in lines like that often, but only for a short time. what kind of products were they?

[Kelly]

The one I got was called Shower Sherbet...basically a shower scrub....best smelling stuff EVER!!!! But they have all kinds of stuff! Here's their website:

[sweetheart]

oh yeah half of most of my pay checks go there! My mom tells me I could run a store on all the things I have from there.

[Amanda]

I used to love cucumber melon and sweet pea. My friends would always give me stuff as gifts and I rarely bought anything on my own. Now, I actually am on a tight budget and never buy anything from there..but I always ask for it for Christmas and birthdays.

[taryns93]

Oooo! Laura! Bath & Body Works Is Having A Huge Sale With Their Discontinued Items In It Too!

[Kelly]

Ok I hate to say it, but I'm mad at B&BW right now :( I got that package several days ago and with it I got a free sample of Freshwater Cucumber perfume...yum! Well I just pulled the card off of it tonight and noticed that on the back of the card, there's a coupon for a bottle of it. I got all excited, then saw the expiration date: 1/31/08 :confused: So not cool!

[JC#1Nashvillefan]

Juniper Breeze
Sun Ripped Rasberry
Sparkling Peach
Cucumber Melon
are my favorites
I have the Sparkling Peach lotion right now. It makes you want to eat it

[ExtraordinaryCrusader]

I love white tea and ginger but they discontinued it!!! :'( That was my Favorite, my scent my....okay maybe I should rethink how attached I am to that smell. haha

[Kelly]

Hehe don't worry, I do that too!

[LauraA]

I LOVED the White Tea and Ginger, too. They've discontinued so many of my favorites. :( But there are still lots of great scents left!

Kelly, if you call them, I think they would offer you another coupon that would be of similar value or something. They should, anyway.

Taryns93, I saw that they had that sale....oh so tempting! lol. Did you get anything?

[JeepGirl83]

It's been quite some time since i've been into BBW. I need to stop in sometime soon ;)

[PrayerPower]

I just went to there sale that they had and bought a bunch of stuff. I got there new summer scent, Dancing Waters, or something like that. And I love there wallflowers. The smell so good and they fill a room with the scent you get so fast.

[souledoutforchrist]

Ohh boy, so I had fun over there this past weekend. I was at the mall shopping for a friends birthday & had no idea they were having a sale. I went nuts! I ended up getting her Sweet Pea stuff, another friend Vanilla & then I got me Moonlight Path & Cherry Blossom. Everything was $5 except the Vanilla which was $2. ha ha I came home with all these bags & my mom started laughing:)

[LauraA]

I'm dreaming of all the great scents! lol. I have a really bad cold and can't taste or smell anything. Bummer.

[Special_K]

I like their scents but i also love their lip glosses. My favorite one is their cinnimon one.

[LauraA]

Kelly, I'm really enjoying the goodies that you gave me for my birthday. I really love the Eucalyptus Spearmint Body Lotion! I use it every day. :) Thanks again.

[souledoutforchrist]

haha so I have done my body works shopping for the year. In the past month I've spent about $100 there! So unlike me

[Kelly]

Goodie! :) I'm so glad! I may have to get some of that. Eucalyptus Spearmint was the first scent I ever got from Bath & Body Works...I was hooked after that :p

Kelly, I'm really enjoying the goodies that you gave me for my birthday. I really love the Eucalyptus Spearmint Body Lotion! I use it every day. :) Thanks again.

[Kelly]

Ok I have a bone to pick with you B&BW employees....

WHY OH WHY is Freshwater Cucumber being discontinued??????? :eek::confused::(

It's the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just went to the site to check if there were any sales and saw the disturbing news!

I bought a bottle of the perfume so I hope it lasts till yall realize what a HUGE mistake this is!!!!! :(

[souledoutforchrist]

Oh I don't like when places do that^

I just found out a few minutes ago that we are getting a B&BW built about 10 minutes from my house! Right now the nearest one is 30mins. That's going to be so cool:)

[Kelly]

awesome! Our closest one is only 15 minutes away, so it's not too bad

[LauraA]

I got a coupon in the mail for a free bottle of "Black Amethyst" body lotion. Must be a new scent. Did any of you try that yet? I need to get to the mall and get the lotion. Free is nice. :)

[souledoutforchrist]

Oh I was just there & didn't see a new one, bummer. Now I shall have to go back:D
