Review: Bath & Body Works Fragrance Mist and Dupes

Bath & Body Works had a promotion last month where their whole Signature Collection line was Buy 3 Get 3 Free. I specifically went to check out the new BBW store at Richmond Centre (opened in Sep/Oct?) to check out the selection. That store turned out to be quite large, taking up about 2.5 stores.



Anyways, while I was there, I decided that I really didn't need 6 full-sized products. Even though it was a good deal, the total would've came out quite big too. Also, a staff member told me that the travel-size selections were 3 for $12, so I jumped on that instead.

Now I recently got into fragrances (Great huh...MORE things to tempt me to spend money...). I fell in love with Aquolina's Pink Sugar, and any other sweet, sugary scents of the sort like Lavanila's Vanilla Grapefruit and Vanilla Coconut. Also Kenzo's Eau de Fleur de Soie Silk (Limited Edition).

And I would like to say, I think I've found some dupes!




First I'll give my interpretation of the fragrances. Wild Honeysuckle does smell like honeysuckle, and also notes of magnolia and jasmine. I find this very similar to Michael Kors Very Hollywood. This scent is quite lasting even though it's just a fragrance spray.

Rainkissed Leaves is a very clean scent. It does smell like fresh cut grass with a slightly sweet scent. But it's a light scent and because it's a fragrance mist, the scent isn't strong and doesn't last. I would compare this to Elizabeth Arden's Sunflower (do they even make that anymore?).



Enchanted Orchid is a very sweet floral scent. I haven't figured out what it's a dupe of yet though. It's also quite strong and lasting.

Sensual Amber is my favorite of the four. It is very sweet and I think of it as my dupe for Aquolina's Pink Sugar. I really love this. I'm planning on getting the whole line once I'm done with my other lotions (good luck with that right??)

I went back today and the B3G3 deal wasn't advertised anymore, but now they have B3G2 and B2G1 deals, which could be better if you don't really want to stock up your house with these stuff.
