I have become somewhat (ok let’s face it, full blown) Bath & Body Works ADDICT. I feel like I just discovered this new world and can’t get enough. After I started discussing my love on twitter, turns out a lot of you are BBW fans as well. Can someone tell me why I have missed out on this wonderfulness for so long??
Recently BBW had a Facebook live chat, which you can watch here, with their President of Product Development, Camille McDonald, giving the scoop on upcoming summer and fall collections. Camille is responsible for popular BBW scents including Japanese Cherry Blossom and Twilight Woods. I thought I would take advantage of all this new info and organize an outline to share with you guys. I tried to make it in time order to make it easier. I hope you BBW lovers are excited as I am for these new collections! Just a warning, there’s TONS of new things coming and this is a long post.
SPRING
1. April 30th- I Fragrance Event
I went to one of these in March and it’s a fun way BBW gets its customers involved in giving feedback for new scents. They had a gift with purchase, which in the last one was a full sized Country Chic Lotion. Also, they had a set of testers you could vote on that were going to be a new scent based on the winner. These weren’t labeled and you just picked number 1-4.
2. Country Chic
This scent has already been released. It’s meant to be a spring version of the Twilight Woods scent. It is a blend of sparkling lemon, bright wildflowers, and sheer woods. Camille described is as a casual chic fragrance.
3. Into The Wild
This scent is just starting to release. I bought the little travel sized lotion which is all they have available for now. It is meant to be a union between fashion and fragrance, inspired by the Gucci animal print designs. The fashion element adds the sexyness of animal print and the fragrance element adds scent with mandarin, bright fruits, woods, and patchouli.
This scent will also come with a body scrub that has walnut chips in it.
4. Series of Favorite Ingredients
Camille talked about what a success the Vanilla collection was and wanted to make some more collections with what she called favorite addictive ingredients , Coconut and Citrus.
