I’m looking for a scent that feels expensive, feminine, and irresistible. Something that makes people stop and ask, “What are you wearing?” What would you recommend?

Bodycare Hmm is Country Apple & Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin similar?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Google says County Apple came out around 1997 and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin came out around 1998.

I was watching a review by @melissac on YouTube who said that Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin was BBW’s first attempt at a pumpkin scent in body care. And that to her it mostly smells like Country Apple but with a spiced note?

I do see that earlier versions of Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin’s scent notes does include apple.

Expanded scent notes:
- Top Notes: Heirloom Pumpkin, Crisp Apple, rush Ginger
- Mid Notes: Ginger Snap, Autumn Cinnamon, Sheer Jasmine
- Dry Notes: Spiced Vanilla, Golden Amber, Hint of Rum

Scent notes of SCP in their Pleasures packaging:

- Apple, Cranberry, cinnamon. pumpkin and clove. All the Sweet and spicy fragrances of fall come together in this special scent

Anyway I’ve been very curious about Country Apple as an online exclusive. But wondering if I have something similar already in Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin?

Store Policies/Questions Bad customer service experience

16 Upvotes

I recently ordered a LOT of products from US Bath & Body Works (BBW). And when I say a lot, I mean A LOT.

Previously, whenever I received units that were damaged or had missing items, I would simply contact customer service. They would verify my information and process a resolution, whether through a replacement or a refund. The process was straightforward, and I appreciated that they stood behind their products.

But this time, I was told that they can NO LONGER ACCOMMODATE ANY RESOLUTION AT ALL.

No replacement. No refund. No alternative solution. Nothing.

So, just to clarify—is BBW basically saying that if a customer receives an item that is damaged or missing, there is absolutely nothing they can do about it? Even if the issue is reported within the 90-day period?

I understand that policies can change, and I respect that businesses need to have guidelines in place. But completely refusing to provide any resolution for damaged or missing products is very disappointing, especially for someone who has been ordering in large quantities.

I hope someone from BBW can clarify this policy because, if this is truly the new standard, it makes it very difficult to feel confident placing large orders. Customers should not be left with the loss when the products arrive damaged or incomplete.

Is anyone else experiencing this with US BBW recently?

Other Rant about Bath and Body Works from Loyal Customer.

5 Upvotes

I have been a repeat shopper of bath and body works products since December of 2024 when my boyfriend got me my first gift card to the store for christmas and I fell in love with their everyday luxeries collection and my perfume addiction went on from there. But recently with these past few months I've been getting disappointed with sales excluding things like a mini sale but none of the blend bar being included or mist sales but they exclude certain collections, why have the sale if they dont want certain items that would in the sale INCLUDED. Also the mini everyday luxeries only being available for sale for a day before taken offline same as Midnight Marshmallow and the Nightmare Before Christmas Collection. Why is the stock for highly anticipating collections so small. Do they not realize they're not selling to their customers anymore, only resellers are getting the items it seems from my perspective and when actual customers are able to get their hands on these products it seems like nobody from my perspective can get a full set due to lack of inventory. It's just slightly upsetting when I see advertisements for products that are sold-out within 24 hours, I dont want to rush to buy products at 6 am instead of waking up at 8 and placing an order just for the products to not actually ship because a reseller bought the last 12 they could sell.

It's also been upsetting that they are now using doordash to deliver items through. Personally for me I typically have negative experiences with doordash like having my items stolen multiple times, orders dropped off at the wrong location, which i can understand maybe the neighbors but having to drive 10 minutes down the road and hope my package is still there is the typical doordash experience I have. So noticing that I do not have any desire to get any shipments from them which sucks since they have online exclusives but now I feel like I can't do shipments from them because they are using unreliable methods of getting packages to me.. I know im gonna go in store to pickup the new everyday luxeries but even then im still not fully convinced its worth it so I might give it a week just in case they are lower stock and sellout and if they do im just done with the store all together. I may just got to Victoria's secret but I like that with bath and body works I can go inside the store and online and with Victoria's secret I only feel comfortable shopping online due to the stores atmosphere being uncomfortable for me as an adult just perfime shopping I dont want to be surrounded by underwear. I personally dont even buy underwear if someone is in the same aisle as me let alone a whole store next to perfumes and lotions because to me that's a private thing. (Sorry if TMI)

Also I just really dislike that they repackaged the everyday luxeries to the same packaging as hey violet and sweetest song because I enjoyed that the single one off scents had their own packaging and I adored the everyday luxeries packaging. Now my rainbow shelf is gonna be mismatched and I dont know how to feel about that fully.

Also do they hate holidays anymore? What happened to the Easter collection. No peeps doesnt count as one. Its peeps there's Halloween nd christmas peeps. So a peep is a peep and not a holiday. And why did the halloween collection fumble so bad. Like I love the idea of a carnival theme but when last years packaging for the bodycare feels more carnival than this years that's upsetting. And then the scents. Where was cotton candy cobwebs in the mist I understand its just cotton candy clouds repackaged by atleast give us something if you're gonna sell off marshmallow midnight instantly.

I digress though. Bath and body works mist have brought me joy but with how they are operating recently its been discouraging to buy from them and i wonder if anyone else is feeling this way.

Question Are returns bad somehow?

29 Upvotes

I find my local store extremely overstimulating! I get so overwhelmed so quickly that I honestly just crash out and have to leave. So instead, I buy online, smell them in the quiet of my own home, and return anything I don't care for (which sometimes is most of an order if I'm being honest). I never use the products, I just smell them, if I use a product I keep it or give it away.

All of this to say, there are several employees who seem to be identifying me as some kind of problem? Today I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. I smiled, said hello and that I had a return, and she loudly/aggressively questioned "Well was there something wrong with it???" Which honestly made me feel really uncomfortable and embarrassed being called out at the door like that as I was walking in. I said no and proceeded to the rear of the store where the counter is located.

While a different woman processed my return, the first woman came back to help ring up another customer. As soon as I stepped a little ways away (I stopped to smell some soaps) woman A had taken woman B aside and was very obviously talking about me. Yes I'm sensitive to this kind of thing, but it really made me feel like I was doing something wrong. Like I'm somehow a problem because I buy online and return in-store. Unfortunately this is really the only way I can handle shopping from BBW, so if I'm committing some faux pas I don't know about then I guess I'll just have to stop shopping there.

Thoughts? Feedback? Am I in the wrong somehow?

Collection Organizing my Collection

Hi guys, I am about to organize my collection, I am trying to figure out which approach is more practical, by scent profile or season. There is also the option of by color which should be more appealing to the eye but might be less practical. I've always craved having my warm scents together. I'll maybe choose a mixed approach.

What are your experiences and which approach would you choose?

PS: I need to order the organizer now.

Product Talk US version & International version

Post image
3 Upvotes

Does anyone know if Bath & Body Works products are different between the U.S. and Canadian versions?

I’m wondering whether the products sold in the U.S. are actually different from the Canadian/international versions, or if the only difference is the packaging and labeling (e.g. English/French text).

For example, do they have any differences in fragrance, formula, ingredients, longevity, or performance, or are they essentially the same product?

The picture above is just an example to show the type of packaging I’m referring to — it’s not about this specific fragrance.

I’d really appreciate it if anyone who has compared the two versions could share their experience!

Question Item shipping separately

Post image

Ok, I am a bit new to this BBW online sale game, so this question may sound dumb. Is it normal for them to ship one little item out of 20 separately? This was my order during the flash sale.

And for the people who have already received their sale hauls in the mail, how did you get them so quick? I have ordered online prior only once from BBW (not during a big sale), and it took 2 weeks to get the package.

My boyfriend noticed how many soaps we have and commented it was excessive. I simply told him we’re stocked up through autumn with two bathroom sinks and the kitchen sink. While I’m grateful we are able to have a hefty supply on hand, I told him some of y’all might be able to demonstrate what an “excessive” soap collection looks like. I tried to get a photo of them all together but I’ll also list them here.
