Who else wants to thank Bonnie for allll the giggles and smiles this yr!?!?❤❤🎉🎉
Thank you Bonnie ❤🎉🎆🎇🥰
I Just made her a card..Anyone know address!!??
@@Dani-ICU-RNclick more on her video & go down to the bottom. You'll see Bonnie's PO Box address. 😊
@@Dani-ICU-RN her PO Box address is under the description I think
Thank you Bonnie❤
I'd love to see the Summer Vanillas line back again: Cherry Vanilla, Lemon Vanilla, Apricot Vanilla, Berry Vanilla, Coconut Vanilla, Raspberry Vanilla ... etc. Yum! Those were sooo good!
I *loved* the Summer Vanillas soooo much! I’d be so happy if they came back!!
Those smelled so good! I wish they would bring those back 😢
I loved apricot vanilla! Blast from the past!
@@elizabethkennedy4427 Oh yes, loved it too! If you're looking for something similar, Philosophy has a comparable fragrance 'Apricots & Cream" which is pretty good (not the same but good). It's hard to find though.
Oh my, I don't remember Cherry Vanilla! I would love that. I would kill for B&BW to make a body care line for their Cherry Vanilla Float hand soap scent.
We have almost exact opposite tastes in scents but I still love this channel! Even though I'm not a big fan of foodie scents, I always get great descriptions and insights. The videos are always entertaining and humerous and such a mood boost. I really look forward to these every week.
Me as well, I'm totally not a foodie girlie, so those scents often sort of nauseate me 😅😊 / But I love Bonnie's channel and energy.
@PodieM18 I feel like it depends. I'm definitely a gourmand fan. I love vanillas and things that smell chocolate or cake/frosting. But things that are like "butter pecan caramel" are too much and those are nauseating.
Me as well. I love Bonnie's channel. I love her sense of humor, and I love ice tea, too!
Same
I am the same. I love this channel and when Bonnie says her mother loves a fragrance then I know it's a fragrance for me.
They should bring back raspberry jam donut chocolate covered cherry and stuff like that for Valentine's Day
Yes!! I’m holding onto my RJD for dear life 😂
YES!!!! Those two scents are Exactly what I want!! I want to smell sweet/gourmand like decadent chocolate candy😋💌💘
Yesssss!!!!
🙌
RJD was so amazing. Blueberry Sugar pancakes was good as well as the blueberry version. And we didn't get either one back this year. 😭
Dear BBW: Please replace Warm Vanilla Sugar with Wrapped in Vanilla as a permanent core fragrance. This would change my life. Please, pleaae, please. 😂🙏🏻❤
Don't need to replace just add
Bonnie, Bath and Body Works needs to bring back Bonfire Bash bodycare for next year.
That's my favorite
Was hoping they’d bring back bright lemon snowdrop sometime. Also the Tutti Dolce collection was amazing
I'd LOVE a carrot cake body care! 😍 Oh, and I have to say that I don't really like that Halloween stuff is being promoted earlier and earlier. This past year on June 20th I got an advertisement for Halloween scented things...I don't think it was Bath and Body Works, though. It was just so unappealing to me...I don't want to skip over summer before it's officially begun! Releasing Halloween stuff in the summer also makes it less exciting by the time I actually want it.
Me, either!!! I hate having to shop for holidays months early! Shopping for Halloween in the middle of summer, shopping for Christmas when I should be celebrating Halloween. It's ridiculous. Not even able to enjoy the season we are in...😞
@@kristennelson3190 my thoughts exactly. Plus they bought out Meet Me in Miami. I'm like dang let me enjoy my holiday scents first.
Yes!!! 🧡🧡🧡
If we didnt celebrate Halloween in July how could we have 5 months of Christmas? 🙄
@@Allison-jj1vq 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Bonnie! My favs this year were Among the Clouds, Iced Lemon Poundcake, Sweet Petal Poundcake, Love Always Wins, Endless Sea, Midnight Blue Citrus, Gingham Vibrant, Cozy Vanilla Bourbon, Fresh Vanilla Blossoms, Chasing Fireflies, Luminous, Whipped Coconut Milkshake, Coco Paradise, the Coco Shea line, Vampire Blood and Lovely Dreamer.
Together Weather was new for Fall. I loved it. Also loved the Gingerbread one. Stocked up on both.
I thought together weather was a returning scent
Ok so a lot of people got their favorites back this year so I'm really hoping we get a lot of great new scents in 2024.
I would love to see Chocolate covered cherry come back as well as Cocoa mint come back. I also wish they would make a pink petal tea cake that smells identical to the candle. I know they can do it since they came up with a hand soap that smelled identical.
OMG Chocolate Covered Cherry and Cocoa Mint! Those are two of my most favourite foodie scents. Crossing my fingers they return. I never even knew about those!
Semi Annual sale was in June.
My one and only LOVE is Bonfire Bash. I was so disappointed it didn't return.. I would have loved to try Wrapped in Vanilla as I feel that one would be a love too. The only mist I bought this year was Strawberry Snowflakes.
They owe us a year of gourmands after the nonsense they tried this year 😭😭😭😭 1:12
Yes!
This is exactly what I was thinking! Especially after refreshing my memory of the entire year recap, my first reaction was: 2024 Year of Gourmand. If you're listening, BBW, please make it happen. ❤️❤️
I completely agree!!
Yesssssss
Hi Bonnie! I would say 2023 was a VERY WEIRD year! So MANY favorites that were missing like Bonfire Bash. I definitely miss the gourmand fragrances. I'm someone who normally sticks with fall and winter fragrances, but I did expand my horizon a bit this year. I did like some of the fresh fragrances like the Ginghams and I did revisit some of my OG fragrances like Sweet Pea, Plumeria, and Warm Vanilla Sugar. Some fragrances never made it to Canada at all like Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin and it was an online exclusive in the U.S. I've always known SCP to be in stores. Luckily, I have plenty of it in my collection. I did like some of the tropical like Pink Pineapple Sunrise. There was a lot of fresh and fruity fragrances. I'm done with the fresh and fruity fragrances. I skipped out on a lot of fragrances this year. Very blah and not very exciting for me. I'm now holding out for gourmands to possibly be released in 2024. I'm glad BBW improved the formula for Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte and Vanilla Bean Noel. I loved Sunrise Woods this year as to me this time around smelled similar to Twilight Woods which is one of my favourites. I'm glad Vampire Blood was released in full body care. I was also happy to see Dark Kiss come back which is my gothic fragrance. I will be slowing down in 2024 with products. Bring back BONFIRE BASH and WRAPPED IN VANILLA for 2024!!!!!!
Aside from scenys- I miss the lanyards , PUMP SANI,sani wipes, the simple sanitizer holders for back to school, and I missed the traditional football 🏈🏀📣lanyard or Sani holder ! lot of little chachki stuff missing that I used to give to teachers and especially coaches!
Thank you! This is great 😊❤️❤️❤️
My favorites of the year (new & repackaged):
-Iced lemon pound cake (top scent)
-Fresh Jungle Rain
-Golden mango lagoon
-Groovy (pink) Watermelon
-Gingham Fresh & Gorgeous (didn’t care for vibrant tbh)
-Coconut milkshake
-Cotton candy clouds
-Midnight blue citrus
-Pumpkin pecan waffles
-Luminous
-Strawberry & Snowflakes
-Cozy vanilla Bourbon
-Sweet whiskey (specifically this years version having berries vs apple)
But in all in all this year kind of sucked compared to previous years. The only stand out to me was iced lemon pound cake. WHERE ARE THE GOURMANDS lol. I thought that BBW was saving all their gourmand ideas for a Christmas collection but boy was I wrong lol
Awesome list! 😊❤️❤️❤️
We have similar taste!
I loveeeeeeee Iced lemon pound cake . I’m not so big on strawberry pound cake. Tried to like it , I really wanted to.
Iced Lemon Poundcake was my number 1 favorite!! I agree we just need more gourmands!
I also loved Among The Clouds. I know it’s simple but I love it!!
I would like to get lavender marshmallow in body care for Easter . I’m thrilled about the candle for candle day but body care would be awesome.
I agree lots of repackages seemed like very little effort was offered and then recycled holiday bundle with pure wonder hopefully next year is more fun
Loved the year of products in review! 🎉 ok for 2024 … hmm my Dream ideas lol
For the Tropical Collection.. I would love a Tropical Smoothie Collection!!! It could have a Strawberry Banana Smoothie, Coconut, Pineapple Smoothie, Blueberry Passionfruit Smoothie .., idk but that would be such fun! 🍓🍌🥥🍍🫐🥭
Then we NEED a Spring Bakery collection… like a Lemon Poundcake , Pink Petal TeaCake , Lavender Macaron ..I would Also be down with a Carrot Cake!!!! Yum!!
There are soooo many Amazing ideas
I agree Bonnie! I feel like this year sucked a lot for body care collections.
My absolute favorites that were new this year were Jolly Gingerbread Village, Cozy Vanilla Bourbon, Vampire Blood, Coco Paradise, whipped coconut milkshake, everlasting magic, golden berry Mistletoe, and Fresh Vanilla Blossoms
I loved some of the repackages like Vanilla Bean Noel which they fixed, cloud nine, marshmallow pumpkin latte, sunset glow, snowflakes and cashmere, cotton candy clouds, firecracker pop, and fall in bloom
We got too much cucumber melon definitely
I mean I love Halloween and Christmas but I wasn’t crazy about anything this year. All the stuff I would’ve loved to come back didn’t so I was like whatever
Seems like this year was very different. No bake shop collection and the holiday collection was not as good as it usually is.
It was supposed to get people that make scent recognition .there was a lot of that this year . I work for bbw . I wish they could of done peach Prosecco macaroon for the Valentine’s Day collection
Ohh that was a good one. That smelled like fuzzy peach candies. 🩷
We do Desperately need a tropical banana 🍌 body care scent - like the Under the Sun 3-wick candle they had. And I would Love a Key Lime Pie fragrance!!!!🤞🤞🤞
Ooh yes i loved that Under The Sun candle . It smells like Hawaiian Tropic -so body care would be awesome.
Watermelon Mojito is genuinely awesome!!! And the hand soap was amazing, too. It smelled slightly sweeter than the body care - like watermelon Bubblelicious gum!
My boss sent me to Bath and Body Works today with a $60 budget and a list of what his daughter wanted for Christmas 🤣😂 I got her a pair of shea socks with a reward of mine because it would have pushed me over my budget but that's gonna be the happiest little girl on Christmas 😍😍😍 and I appreciate that he let me help. He's wrapping the socks for her specifically from me and I was like "I just want her to have the world 😭" 😂🤣
That was so kind of you. ❤
What's on the list
@@osmathgreenle8986 She got the shower gel, and spray in Vanilla Bean Noel, Bright Christmas Morning, A Thousand Wishes, and Strawberry Pound Cake. I had so much fun to be honest lol.
@@recovering.with.rachel Lluuuuuv Bright Christmas Morning (Got it for my sister to layer with Orange+Ginger) and Strawberry Pound Cake is 😍 Good selections!
Hi Bonnie! That would be awesome to have carrot cake in body care! I love Iced Lemon Pound Cake! It’s weird that we didn’t get Berry Waffle Cone and Bonfire Bash, I hope they come back in 2024! I don’t mind Halloween coming early, that way I can enjoy Halloween longer- my top favorite Holiday! I am obsessed with Leaves! I love almost all of the Fall scents! All in all, I feel like we’re really lacking in gourmand scents. Thank you for going over all the scents from 2023!
I think you forgot Luminous. I liked that one. I still go for the older ones like A thousand Wishes........Butterfly...... and Dark Kiss. Which reminds me of something funny. yesteday while in the store shopping an older couple must have been doing their Christmas shopping. They were going around saying for example At the beach would be good for Jane.
after squirting stuff on each other and deciding if they should put in cart. i hear this.... the man says I liked the Dark Kiss for so and so and she just looked at him and said I like the scent but the name Dark Kiss would be sooooooooo inappropriate. He just shook his head saying well it smelled the best. She was still fussing in the checkout lane saying why did they have to name that good smelling one something like Dark Kiss. She said with a straight face just what does that mean and why would you want to send that message. If is just said kiss or sweet kiss she said she would have bought some but DARK KISS ?? He just was being funny and he said it was for people younger then themselves. she gave him a dirty look. lol lol I could hardly keep from laughing outloud. They were so cute.
Wow they were too intense lol. I heard of ppl turning down a scent/scents bcuz of packaging but not bcuz of the name, that's too much.
That’s hilarious 😂😂
Shopping for the grandkids, that's so cute and wholesome. Sounds like they put so much thought into each selection. Grandparents are just the best. 🥰🥲
I want to try wrapped in vanilla, I hope it comes back.
Wow so sorry u missed an awesome one.
Don't think these were mentioned:
Sweet Whiskey, Luminous, Together Weather, Pure Wonder, Endless Sea, Wild Sand, Forever Red, also aromatherapy was not really discussed (especially loved Northern Brights) as well as men's collection , and Laundry scents.
Thank you 😊❤️❤️❤️
All problems fade tto background while watching you. Thank you Bonnie!
As much as I LOVE Cotton Candy Clouds(it’s one of my top 5 scents ever) I wish they would bring back Boardwalk Taffy. It’s just slightly different than CCC to my nose.
This!
Its not. Its just lighter than ccc
Sun Blooms and Suede, Iced Lemon Poundcake, Among The Clouds, Vampire Blood, Sweet Whiskey, Cozy Vanilla Bourbon, Vanilla Bean Noel (longevity), and Jolly Gingerbread Village were my standouts. (probably missed a few)
Spent 70 bucks and saved $63 on body care! pretty good deal if you ask me lol.
I ended up returning Among the Clouds (I blind bought it). Theoretically, I should like it. I like both berry and vanilla scents, but it didn't smell anything like berry or vanilla, to me. It smelled like a 2000s middle school floral (which is odd, given there aren't any floral notes). I was expecting a sort of cotton candy type scent, or at the very least, a light gourmand, but it was like a stinky juvenile floral.
This video was so much fun Bonnie!
10:49 Bright Lemon Snowdrop 🍋❄️
25:29 Together Weather was in that collection as well. I think it might have been considered a new fragrance..?
31:09 Winterberry Wonder (I think 🤔)
There was some sand and sea collection, I don’t even know the exact names, but I know that less than memorable collection was around at some point. 😄
There was a collection with Sweet Whiskey, Sunrise Woods, Copper Fields, and that scent with the gin in it, something Martini..? I don’t know if I missed you talking about that collection or not. Also, if you mentioned Luminous I missed it as well. (I am multitasking, so I’m sorry if you mentioned it and I didn’t hear it. ☺️)
2023 was an odd year for Bath & Body Works in my opinion. It definitely saved me money, but I’d rather spend the money and have more new scents and more scents I enjoy. It’s disappointing to have so few foodie scents. I am crossing my fingers 2024 is a better year for Bath & Body Works and am excited to see what is to come!
This video reminded me how many scents I hated this year lol. I saved a lot of money not buying many mists this year! I purchased a full-size gingham fresh, and I got minis in gingham gorgeous and golden berry mistletoe. It was a lackluster year for fragrance, as I am a Gourmand girl. Everyone raved about iced lemon pound cake, but I did not really care for it it was too light on the lemon and the scent faded very quickly, so I gave it away. My favorite was the cocoa shea line and gigham gorgeous and aromatherapy in general. ❤
Fingers crossed for more gourmand scents next year! Those are my favorites!❤
Cozy vanilla bourbon was my top scent this year ❤ and pumpkin pecan waffles my forever scent .
Dahlia, Fairytale, and Dark Kiss should have been in their own collection, and should have released in late summer/early fall. Especially considering that Dark Kiss can easily be a perfect Halloween scent, though it's a beautiful scent all year.
I actually Loved the Ballet Collection, which completely took me by surprise! The packaging was beautiful and matched the fragrances.
I do really wish they would have a small Thanksgiving collection, though - with a Cranberry scent!!
Speaking of, I Really hope they have a nice, little gourmand Valentine's collection. Another commenter suggested Chocolate Covered Cherry and Raspberry Jam Donut, which I also think would be Perfect! I would also say they should add in Wrapped in Vanilla 🤞🤞.
I Am happy that I'll be able to finally grab a Sapphire Moon shower gel at this SAS - that was another scent that ended up surprising me. I actually love it 💙!
What does sapphire moon smell like in the shower gel?
I wish Bath and Body Works would bring back Amber Blush, it was one of my favorites! I'm down to 1 shower gel and I don't use it very often. Ooh I really loved that scent.
One of my favorites this year that was introduced (around September) is Luminous. I think it smells so pretty. 💗
😊❤️❤️❤️
My favorites from this year were Gingham Vibrant, Golden Mango Lagoon, Poolside Cabana, Whipped Coconut Milkshake, Everlasting Magic, and Luminous. I agree that the Vampire Blood fragrance would work well year round. ♥️
I saved SO much money this year.
Amount the Clouds is a favorite. Backed it up big time!
The Ginghams and the straw collection were the best!
I've been enjoying spending time with what I have already because fall & Christmas were not interesting at all.
I did really like Everlasting Magic but Vampire Blood is definitely a one & done. I'm currently trying to use that up.
Love recap videos like this. A few of my favs were Fresh Vanilla Blossoms, Iced Lemon Pound Cake, Luminous.
My favorite new releases were Iced Lemon Pound Cake, Neroli Blossom Bergamot, Watermelon Mojito, Cozy Vanilla Bourbon, Satin Slippers and Meet Me In Miami. We did get some good re-releases but I would have preferred better new ones. Crossing my fingers for 2024!
Not sure if you mentioned Vanilla Mocha Martini. I picked it up in store around the first of March. Love that scent!
That Gingham collection was my overall favorite!
Fell in love with the Gingham Collection. It actually reinvigorated my love for BBW after several years of hiatus. 😂❤️
Hi Bonnie! I appreciate all the time and effort you put into these videos. I have no clue how to do all of that but I sure do enjoy watching your videos and opinions/descriptions. It has helped me define my scent profile and also given me opportunities to try scents I might not otherwise and have found a few gems that way. Most of my collection is from 2023 and I am pretty happy with it but I am also a floral girl. I have a really nice collection and use it all although some is seasonal.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
Thank you for all your effort in this video, Bonnie! I'm not even a foodie scents person but they've really dropped the ball this entire year in that regard.
Love wrapped in vanilla and blush cardigan
Yesss blush cardigan!
My least favorite new scents of 2023 is probably a tie between Chasing Fireflies/Luminous and my favorite was Golden Berry Mistletoe (which I absolutely adore). There were some cute collections tropical, Ginghams, summer straw, summer foodie that were good but sort of all kind of generic and basic to me....
My favorite scent for 2023 was probably Cozy Vanilla Bourbon and my least favorite was Fresh Vanilla Blossoms. I also really loved Gingham Vibrant and Pumpkin Pecan Waffles. I was hoping Bonfire Bash would come back as well❤️
We have similar taste haha I am obsessed with CVB and I hope it comes back!
I really love the vanilla bourbon and vanilla blossom scents and hope they do come back! Now I feel like I need to go get more🫣😂😂😂
I did miss Wrapped in Vanilla!!! It’s my favorite vanilla scent and I mix it with everything. So I hope it comes back ❤
I agree wish they would give us a banana daiquiri or banana cream pie type scent in body care for summer and a carrot cake or chocolate candy bar scent would be nice for Easter. My favorites this year were Iced Lemon Pound Cake, Pumpkin Pecan Waffles, sweet Petal cake, Midnight blue Citrus, Poolside Cabana, Gingham Gorgeous, Gingham Vibrant, Groovy watermelon.
Blush Cardigan and Wrapped in Vanilla didn't cone back. I hope it comes back in the spring collection
I ordered 2 of the hot cocoa and cream and that's all I wanted then my friend said she wanted to order them for Christmas. No matter what I did, she insisted. She's a great friend 😊❤
I have noticed that the new scents don't last on my skin very long 😢and with the price increase this is very disappointing 😑 I have a huge collection so I am going to start using it up. 👍🏻😉
Agree Bonnie! We 👏Need 👏More👏 Foodie Scents! 🍪🧁🧇🍰🍨Hopefully next season will be the start with a new bake shop! Fingers crossed! Love this recap, thank you! Favorites are Sunset glow and Copper Fields my lest favorites are Fall in Bloom and Together Weather.
I didn't care for coco paradise, but I love Waikiki beach coconut.
This year I really missed coconut cream pie, christmas cookies, and strawberry soda. This year was a blah year as far as scents, but the packaging was great. I would love if they rereleased life of the party at the end of this year.
Saaaaaame
Great video! I love these! My faves were Endless Sea (although I feel like it came out too late in the summer), Lemon Pound Cake, and Sweet Petal Poundcake. I also was pleasantly surprised by Vampire Blood. I usually don't like berry scents, but this one was nice! Honestly, though? I'm hoping for a better year in 2024 for scents! This was probably one of the more disappointing years. I shopped from my stash way more than I ever have.
Did you mention new winter scent Luminous and when they brought back Pure Wonder?
Favorite was leaves. Hoping to find some at SAS. Also enjoyed Midnight Blue Citrus. I don't believe I didn't like any of them. I just wish some were longer lasting.
Looked at your previous videos summer SAS was the retro 25 year Cucumber Melon,Juniper Breeze,Plumeria & White Tea and Ginger all of which I love. The Gingham collection was great but loved Iced Lemon Pound Cake. Glad they brought back Black Cherry Merlot,Leaves & Dahlia. Finally adored Snowflakes & Cashmere.
The cucumber melon always my favorites brought 3 good deal .
I hurt my knee and am stuck in the house. The only good thing is that I found your channel not long ago, and I am binging your channel. I love your personality and love your reviews. It helps me decide which ones I want. Thanks !
The 2019 Christmas collection was the best ! The candles and the body care that year was AMAZING 🤩
Love your videos Bonnie !!Thankyou for everything you do and keeping us entertained and informed ❤🎉
Thank you for the recap. It reminded me to not get pulled into every collection in 2024.
Thank you Bonnie for all you do all year long…it takes a certain diligence and love for this and we appreciate it! The recap was great❤ I found your channel in January so this is my first year with you it’s been amazing 🎉Hugs from Toronto!🤗
Hi hi... great video, with the fall collection its together weather thats missing.. thats really a lot of scents tho... great job at organising them so well...
I absolutely loved the everlasting magic in diamond shimmer mist would love to have that year round
Happy Saturday night ! We had alot of scents this yr ! The groovy collection was very cool. Loved the tropical collection! I bought so much Coco Paradise, lol. I was happy for the Cocoa Shea / water collections to come back. Gingham Gorgeous was a favorite floral scent for me. My disappointments were not getting back Bonfire Bash, Blueberry Sugar Pancakes & more gourmand scents in bodycare. Ty for the great yr in scents review. 🤗💕💕
Give us new gourmand's fragrances in full size! Where is the Pistachio fragrance?
Hi Bonnie this was such a treat of a video to remember this year and our favourite scents ! I will definitely be a lot more selective in 2024 because I already have like 100 mists and everything else but I am really hoping we get more chocolate and foodie gourmand scents next year ! Thank you so much for always sharing your love of BBW with us I want to wish you and your family happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas ! ❤️🎄⛄️🎅
I usually don't buy aromatherapy so I stock up this time. I want Luminous, I bought some for a friend, then couldn't stop smelling my hand after leaving the store, I got looks. I might wait for semi annual sale though.
I love these long videos because you ho into great detail about product. I love it. Happy holidays Bonnie
😊❤️❤️❤️
Hi Bonnie! I love your videos! Thank you! You brighten my day with your detailed info! I am not a fan of foodie scents but I still enjoy your videos! I’m a fan of At the Beach, Vampire Blood, and coconut scents!
Thank you for sharing bonnie happy Saturday thanks for letting us know yeah bring back some old ones i dont have me yet
My favorites were: Wild Sands, Golden Mango Lagoon, Groovy Watermelon, and classics Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte, Winterberry Wonder, Winter Candy Apple and Twisted Peppermint. It's been a fun year watching your channel!❤
Would love a foodie summer collection. Something like key lime pie, banana daqurie, coconut cake pop, macadamia toffee, tropical fruit pavlova.
My most favorite scents this year were fall,bloom, cozy vanilla Bourbon, and strawberry snowflakes.
Hi Bonnie!
Great wrap up video! 😀
My favourite scent of '23 was Among the Clouds. 🌥🫐🍓
I also loved Cozy Vanilla Bourbon, Midnight Blue Citrus & Golden Mango Lagoon.
Also, an honourable mention to Coco Paradise & Northern Brights which I love. 🌴🥥🎄🌃
My least favourite part of 2023 was the exclusion of Bonfire Bash. 😮
I'm with you, as it's my ride or die scent. Thank goodness I have a stash.
Tfs Bonnie! ❤
My favorite body care is the water lotion. It has a subtle scent that reminds me of mango water, and the texture is nice. Second pick has to go to the mens Shampoo or even that entire mens skin care line.
The men's line was a hot seller doing this sale. The ladies were really buying that men's line. I even got in on it .
Thank you for all your help!!!
Missing Bonfire Bash and Magic in the Air 😩😩😩
Yes!!!
this video is so so helpful! it really helps show how many scents have rolled out this year especially since i started collecting in December 2022 and have so much stuff already. some of my favorites this year were Coco Paradise, Iced Lemon Pound Cake, Fresh Coconut and Cotton, White Tea and Ginger, Whipped Coconut Milkshake, Fairytale, Pink Suede, Strawberry Snowflakes, and Snowflakes and Cashmere! ❤❤
Oh my bonnie, I have so many thoughts LOL. 2023 has been a wild ride, not just in terms of bath and body works, but everything that has been going on. It's fun to look back. I think they did a decent job of bringing back old classics, and they made up for most of their follies overall i think. For instance, Spring 1 and 2 were really lacking in product, but Spring 3 gave us 3 beautiful new gingham flankers, emerald mist, amethyst waves, and fan favorite saltwater breeze back. The spring 1 faceted set! This was such a random combination of scents to put together, but the transluscent ombre bottles were gorgeous. I did eventually get beautiful day and Fiji just for the bottles. I think it's silly when they drop part of a scent's name. I liked the scents in the cloud nine neutrals collection, but the packaging was SO bland, and Indigo Dreams and Sun Blooms & suede were extremely faint. I think those two would have been big hits if they were just way stronger. I feel like the goal with Among the Clouds was simply to release a winter-spring scent that would not put off anyone, and they succeeded at that. I don't know of anyone who had anything negative to say about it beyond "its kinda generic". The packaging is great for that one. Tropical was much better this year compared to last year. They're still dropping the "exotic destination" theming, but the scents and packaging were better. I love all 3 of the new ones. Also, I LOVE the spray moisturizer that I suspect we may never see again. Man, was that product hard to get in the Waikiki Beach Coconut. Easter! I still miss sweet bunny berry, it was similar to Tutti Fruity Candy but with less sugar and more fruit. TFC is a bit too sweet for me. I would love a chocolate Easter scent, but I'd rather it be distinct from Hot Cocoa and Cream. It's distinctly powdered hot cocoa rather than milk chocolate bunny. I actually really enjoyed Emerald Mist and Amethyst waves throughout the spring. The tiny valentines day collection with 3 gourmands. One of the only gourmand collections we got this year. Strawberry pound cake is always mandatory. Iced Lemon pound cake was nice to have in body care finally, but was a little artificial for me. The rose pound cake one was kinda blah for me. It smells similar to the other rose+ marshmallow/vanilla scents they have put out before. The Spring 3 mother's day collection this year was wonderful. The 3 new gingham flankers were the absolute highlight of my Spring. I hope they bring back Gingham Fresh and Vibrant, and in the same packaging too. They were honestly perfect as a trio. And I loved how they redesigned classic gingham to fit in with the others. Getting White Tea and Ginger, Plumeria, and Juniper Breeze back for SAS was also a great treat. I wore the first two many times this summer. I passed on Juniper breeze because i think it smells like detergent. As for the other two SAS collections, the groovy collection was a really cool concept, but I wish we had gotten more new scents in there. I like how that caused this random character from a 70s sitcom to become a permanent part of the culture of this channel. The ice cream collection was blah for me too. I wanted more than two new scents, and the coconut milkshake one was boring to me. Berry Waffle cone definitely should have been in there over the 19th rendition of cotton candy clouds. The pride collection this year was alright, but honestly I liked last year's better, in terms of scent and packaging. I wish they would start doing a blue raspberry snowcone body care as a traditional 4th of July scent alongside Firecracker Pop. The drink collection! I liked the orange spritz one a lot, i thought it was really invigoratingly fresh and bright. Poolside cabana, I am kicking myself for not getting because now i no longer think it's quite the same as iced pear margarita. Sunset glow is an excellent scent for fall and winter to me. I love that they did the straw design. With the release of poppy and that drink collection, it just makes me wish they would use the mist's bottle stem as a feature in more designs. One of the biggest disappointments of the year for me was them bringing back the Water and Coco Shea collections, but not really. Only a couple of each collection's products in the blandest packaging. But getting endless sea and wild sand, as well as the faceted set with underwater oasis and cactus blossom returning, made up for all that. Endless sea is now one of my favorite aquatics from bath and body works, and so is underwater oasis. The packagings on all of these were beautiful. Halloween! I was so glad to finally get vampire blood in a full size body care. It's one of their best scents in my opinion, so I definitely agree that it should be made permanent. I loved midnight spell personally, i thought it was rather warm and alluring. Everlasting magic, on the other hand, i don't like much at all. But it's a cherry scent so that makes sense. I did feel like we kinda transitioned to fall too fast and didn't get enough summer scents. It was pretty early when chasing fireflies, the fall faceted collection, and the leaf bottle collection came out. I agree chasing fireflies is a bit forgetable. even now, i'm struggling to remember what it smells like without going and referencing my bottle. After going and smelling it, it just seems like a dryer, less impressive version of daydream. In the fall faceted collection, all i got was fall in bloom. That's a great fall floral scent. In the leaf bottle collection, I only got Together weather. Very nice cozy scent. I completely missed out on Copper Fields, Moonlit martini, and fresh vanilla blossoms. I did get one chance to smell them in store, but i never caught them during a sale. I wish i had gotten them. Like Summer, Fall came and went too fast. I really wish we had gotten a Thanksgiving collection. Going into christmas. Somehow it feels like we both got too much christmas stuff and not enough. I like that twisted peppermint, VBN, and WCA, are together, and I think golden berry mistletoe works well with them. I wish we had gotten more scents in that storybook collection though. Or, we could have gotten a large gourmand/fruit collection with Bright lemon snowdrop, santa's blueberry shortbread, raspberry sugar, snowy citrus swirl, hot cocoa and cream, etc. The tufted collection just feels like a repackage collection of random wintry scents. Like "popular winter scent booster pack, vol. 1" I did finally pick up a You're the One though. I like it better at home than i did in store. The collection with fairytale is just kinda sad. The packaging again has too much blank space. And fairyrale doesn't belong in a christmas collection. The New Year's collection is really appreciated, the only repackage in that one is Pink Suede, the others are new. Meet me in Miami is also new. It is similar to hibiscus paradise, but it's not quite the same. There's more of a sweetness to MMiM and HP is more "heady". I was also happy to get Lovely Dreamer and Carried Away for the first time. Overall, it was a pretty good year.
My favorites were coco paradise, fresh jungle rain, wild sand and endless sea gingham fresh, love always wins, jolly gingerbread village and satin slippers. Least favorites were chasing fireflies, ballet slippers and dahlia 😮
I'm very frustrated with Bath & Body Works. One week later and my candles have not been shipped. In the future I will always pay more for shipping to expedite this for Candle Day!.
Bright Lemon Snowdrop 🎄🍋❄️ - the beautiful Land of Sweets 2018/2019? Christmas Lemon scent - in my top 5 favorite BBW'S scents of all time. Winter Berry Wonder was the fourth scent in the Strawberries and Snowflakes collection Bonnie. The only collection you missed Bonnie was the little Summer duo of Wild Sands and Endless Sea
Together weather was my favourite this year, along with among the clouds and coco paradise ❤also really enjoyed pink pineapple sunrise and fresh jungle rain and endless sea in the summer. Just ordered strawberry snowflakes and enjoying twisted peppermint for the Christmas season 🎄
What a feast of a video! I will be watching this at least a good 2 or 3 times.😂 THANK YOU BONNIE! Your videos are the most positive thing in my life!
Enjoyed your year in review!! Thank you.
Thanks for this Year in Review, Bonnie! It was fun remembering all the various collections. I loved Iced Lemon Pound Cake and Chasing Fireflies. Also was so happy to get Dahlia and Strawberry Snowflakes back. Honorable mention: Sweet Petal Pound Cake and Watermelon Mojito. 🤗💕
Best scent of 2023 is Northern Brights followed closely by Cozy Vanilla Bourbon. Third place goes to Luminous ( in perfume form ) which is far superior to the FFM and body creams. Least favorite 2023 fragrance is a tie between Plumeria and White Tea and Ginger. The 2023 versions are a far cry from their original loveliness. It's sad that this happens all the time at BBW when bringing OG fragrances out of the vault. These rarely compare to the original fragrance. They are watered down versions and use less- expensive ingredients. So disappointing.
I totally agree with you on the least favorites.💯
Whoop whoop a recap video!!! Thnx Bonnie😊😊
Excellent video! So helpful thank you 😊
I loved wild sand and endless sea Simple and beautiful
Yes!
One of my ALL time faves!!!!
Happy Holidays B! You forgot to mention the brand new grooming collection for men in September. It was very cool too see BBW getting into new men’s products! They’re really nice to use! 🌲
The customers the ladies were buying a lot of the men's line from this sale. I bought a few from that line .
I really hope we can get Iced Lemon Pound Cake in Canada for 2024! I wanted to try it so badly.
Me too! I had a feeling I wouldn’t like Strawberry Poundcake, because of it being too artificially sweet but decided to buy it blindly. I was right.
Iced lemon pound cake is more up my alley! Hope we get it next year or at SAS.
