Bath & Body Works Pumpkin Picking Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

One of my favorite scents from the Fall 2018 Bath & Body Works line is Pumpkin Picking (although for some reason I keep reading it Pumpkin Pickling)!

The notes include Cinnamon-Spiced Cider, Fresh Pumpkin Pie and Hayrides to the Patch. To me Pumpkin Picking is the perfect mix of spicy and sweet with less cinnamon than Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin. I swear I also pick up a hit of marshmallow in this one. I’m starting to like it more than Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin this year!

pp

Pumpkin Picking comes in:

  • Ultra Shea Body Cream
  • Fine Fragrance Mix
  • Shower Gel

I also love the simple orange design with the gold and bronze accents. Very classy and pretty for Fall.

Bath & Body Works Aromatherapy 5-in-1 Essential Oil Mist Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

Bath & Body Works has a new line of 5-in-1 Essential Oils that come in Pachouli, Peppermint, Bergamot, Ylang Ylang, Lavender and Eucalyptus. They are alcohol free. I picked up the Peppermint and Lavender oils. The price is $13.50.

Screen Shot 2018-09-01 at 7.15.10 PM.png

What’s to love?

First up, I love the packaging. The plastic bottles have an apothecary feel to them.

I am loving the Peppermint Oil, it smells very true to pure peppermint however it is not a strong lingering scent. I was not crazy about the Lavender. To me the scent wasn’t strong enough.

Here are the 5 ways Bath & Body Works suggests using it:

  1. Spray directly on skin
  2. Mist pillows & bedding
  3. Add to hot or cold compress
  4. Spray into shower
  5. Spritz yoga mat

I like to spray the peppermint on the pillows in my living room for a nice scent. It would be nice if they were a bit stronger but I do the the pureness of the peppermint.
