Anyone else notice...

My sister and I were just discussing this the other day. I was at the Walnut Creek Broadway Plaza B&BW, which is a very big store. I noticed that they really seem to be moving in a different direction. They are carrying a lot of different brands, like you said. Of course, there is a Sephora just a few doors down. I personally find those kind of stores a little bit overwhelming. Sensory overload!

I was concentrating on the many, many sale bins thoughout the B&BW store. I loaded up on a bunch of the body creams. I get so frustrated with them for discontinuing all my favorite scents and bringing out new stinky stuff. Cherry Blossom...blech! It smells like an old lady. I'm still mad that they discontinued Peach Nectar, my all time favorite.

I'm still irked about that.

(Though I do like the Creme Brulle)

I got the Tutti Dolci Creme Brulee Honey Bath. It smells good enough to eat. Mmmmmm!

I'll have to check out the Badger Balm now.

I love the Tutti Dolce Creme Brulee. And the Sugar Wafer. It smells so freaking good! I put that stuff on and I want to eat myself.

As far as Bath & Body Works scents go, nothing can beat the Black Raspberry Vanilla and the Coconut Lime Verbena. Bliss, I tell you.

OOoh! The Tutti Dolce Chocolate Souffle!! OMG!! Coco Puffs, anyone? mMmMmMMmmmm....

And the other two you mentioned, those have to be nearly my favorites right now.

Does anyone else miss Creamy Coconut?

Is it horrible of me to say that I use the Creme Brulee, then follow it up with the Dessert line, Creamy from jessica simpson?

I love food smells.....

I love foody scents too

My favourite fragrances are all vanilla based, and if it's a lotion and it smells like (yummy) food, I have it.
