Bath & Body Works FRESH CUT LILACS Candle Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

The Bath & Body Works FRESH CUT LILACS Candle for Spring 2021 is not only beautiful but really strong. The scent notes are Lilac Bouquets, Dewy Greens, Soft Spring Air.

14.5 oz Burn time 25-45 hours. Soy wax blend.

The Bath & Body Works Fresh Cut Lilacs candle is very true to a fresh lilac bush. The scent is a true floral and I found the scent to be fresh and clean. It’s beautiful!

The jar is a light purple with a White Barn branding and gold painted trim. The lid is a pretty gold tone.

I found that Fresh Cut Lilacs easily filled my large living room with scent and was almost too strong in my 160 sq ft office.

It’s a great candle for Spring or Summer.

Bath & Body Works NEW Whipped Vanilla Chiffon Scent is AMAZING!

Queen of the Girl Geeks

One of my new favorite Bath & Body Works scents is Whipped Vanilla Chiffon! It comes in the Body Cream, Body Lotion, Shower Gel and Fine Fragrance Mist. It also comes in the travel sizes!

The scent notes are wild vanilla bean, spun sugar & white peach blossom which gives it a beautiful sweet vanilla scent with a touch of peachiness! I feel like this scent is a cousin to Confetti Cake Pop minus the bakery scent.

This one is a winner for me!

Bath & Body Works NEW Going Bananas PocketBac Review

Queen of the Girl Geeks

Today I picked up the brand new Bath & Body Works Going Bananas Pocketbac! Bath & Body Works is absolutely spot on with the banana scent in this one! WOW!

Going Bananas is a brilliant shade of yellow with blue specks. The label is adorable with a cute little monkey and the theme fits perfectly with their new tropical collection.

However it’s the scent that is worth going bananas over! The banana scent is perfect, it reminds me of the banana Wacky Wafers with a perfect blend of fruit and candy. I do believe that Going Bananas is my favorite PocketBac scent ever. The alcohol smell dissipates rapidly leaving pure on banana.

Also be sure to check out my Bath & Body Works NEW Going Bananas PocketBac Review on YouTube!
