Cocoa Cashmere by eos

Chocolate scents can definitely be hit or miss. EOS has a nice powdery chocolate going on here; to my nose I get Swiss Miss cocoa powder with marshmallows on top. I enjoy this one!

Highly recommend the matching lotion! It's a good hydrating formula that doesn't feel sticky. Good stuff!

Into the Wild by Bath and Body Works

This is a bright fruity floral that's light and perfect when you need an easy breezy scent. I like it for the gym when I wanna smell good for myself but don't want anyone else involved. With a few extra sprays others will smell you, but I prefer this as a skin scent. This BBW scent comes and goes in their current offerings; every few years it pops up again. It's a good one! 💯✌️

White Diamonds Legacy by Elizabeth Taylor

This is my favorite White Diamonds flanker so far......it's very elegant and easy to wear. Perfect for the office, but would work for date night too. I love all of the White Diamonds but this is special for sure....

Chocolate Amber by Bath and Body Works

I have the 2025 version in the body mist, and it's one of my favorite releases from BBW this year. I definitely get a 'honeyed chocolate' the most prominently. For a mist, it has pretty decent longevity, although wearing it with the matching lotion helps it last a bit longer. I'm always looking for a good chocolate scent and this is a nice one!

Sweater Weather by Bath and Body Works

This is a easy to wear appley scent, perfect for transitioning to autumn. The apple is fresh (not a baked dessert apple) and the woodsy note is clean. Projection is short lived, so you'll need to reapply throughout the day. Layer with the lotion for a bit more longevity....🍎🍏🍁🍂

Imperfect Beauty by Bath & Body Works

This is BBW's impression of Marc Jacobs Perfect, and it's very nice. The rhubarb is sharp and zesty at first spray, but everything dries down quickly and becomes a soft and cozy skin scent in just a few minutes. It's a body mist, so there should be no real expectation of this lasting all day, but I was pleasantly surprised to be able to still pick it up several hours in! I have the mist and now wish I'd bought the matching lotion to extend the wear time. This is a great office pick....

Milk Bar Birthday Cake by Bath & Body Works

Straight up vanilla birthday cake. Nothing more, nothing less. The buttercream note is pretty spot on; it's not overly synthetic like some frosting notes can be. This is fun! 🧁🥳🎂🍰

White for Her by Kenneth Cole

Great office scent. Crisp, light, not likely to offend. Becomes a skin scent pretty quickly. A great easy reach!

Seductive Dream by Guess

Testing for the first time....very very light. Youthful. Fresh. It's a good summer scent and would work in any situation....

Sunwashed Santal by Bath & Body Works

This is a perfect bedtime scent....soft and clean and relaxing. It comes and goes in BBW offerings, so get a bottle when you see it! 💯✌️

Pistachio Glaze by Bath & Body Works

One of the best scents from BBW in a while! This is a gorgeous, yummy, creamy pistachio dessert....long lasting and sweet. Layering with the matching body cream really helps with longevity. I hear BBW is discontinuing this; let's hope it comes back from time to time!

At the Beach by Bath and Body Works

I have the body mist version, and it's one of my favorite BBW offerings! Spot on dupe for Estee Lauder's Bronze Goddess, but lighter and easier to wear to work and such. Straight up suntan oil. Perfect for the office, when you're sitting at your desk but wishing you were sitting on the beach!

Platinum by Bath & Body Works

I have the body mist version, and it's surprisingly strong and long lasting! Smells really nice too!

A Lovely Summer by Sarah Jessica Parker

This is love at first sniff for me. Had to order from Poland because I haven't found it anywhere in the US yet. Love it! I have all the Lovely flankers and had a feeling this would be a win! It's definitely NOT a suntan scent...this is warm spicy air and beautiful musk. 💯✌️

Free O2 for Her by Avon

Currently my favorite freshie! It's light, crisp and bright. Easy reach when I just wanna smell clean in any situation. ✌️💯

Sweetheart Cherry by Bath & Body Works

I wanted to love this one, but alas, it lasts on skin for less than 10 minutes. It's perceptable on clothes for a few hours longer, but it's pretty light that way too. The cherry note is fresh and bright, and the pistachio note is realistic too. The vanilla dry down is what hangs around the longest, but as I said....not very long! LOL I'll hang on to it and work my way through it.....

Tennessee Sunset by Dolly Parton

I wouldn't call this groundbreaking, but it's a very nice, soft vanilla scent. Good for work or whenever you need something that's more a skin scent. I like it!

Guilty as Fig by Bath & Body Works

This is my favorite BBW find in recent memory! Gorgeous fig and jasmine. May be tempted to buy a back-up of this one...

4ever Sweet by Bath & Body Works

This is just pure fun. There's a time for serious scent and a time for smelling like grape candy! To my nose, this is straight up grape pixi sticks...one of my favorite childhood treats! 🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇

Ambery Vetiver by Dossier

Ambery Vetiver was my favorite discovery of 2024. (Don't know how long it's been out, I tend to be slow in discovering things.) It's quiet, cozy, and earthy. I've found it's perfect for the office, but also good in the evening when I want a scent that's relaxing and soft. Good stuff! I haven't smelled Byredo's Bal d'Afrique in a long time so I don't know how close this one smells to it, but considering the price difference in the two, I'm quite happy with this gem!

Floral Marshmallow by Dossier

Oof. Not sure about this one yet. I was hoping for way more marshmallow and toned down orange blossom and neroli. I struggle with orange blossom being headache inducing. Will give a wear test and update next wear! It's definitely good quality and great projection for the price! 💯✌️

Vanilla Romance by Bath & Body Works

Super sweet, gourmand vanilla. Recommend layering with matching lotion for longevity...

Vanilla lovers will enjoy this one!

Candied Fantasy by Britney Spears

Happily surprised by this bubble gum scent! The bubble gum fades in just minutes though, and I get a straightforward sweet berry scent that lasts all day. I like it! It's fun and sweet....

Twisted Peppermint by Bath and Body Works

Twisted Peppermint is my favorite holiday offering from BBW. To my nose it smells exactly like my favorite brand of peppermint ice cream that I always look forward to during the holidays. This scent is always great on the hottest summer days too! I often have "Christmas in July" and use this scent as a hot weather refresher...🍬
