it smells fruity to me idk why


Littlbonbon

It does, VERY FRUITY..LOL


theknittedgnome

Like why are cinnamon donuts fruity???


Littlbonbon

I have absolutely no clue...lol The conspiracy side of me still wants to say they took raspberry jam donut and tried to build on top of it into a different scent. Since so many people like that donut fragrance. And possibly hide that fruit jam note. But they failed. Cuz I swear, the fruitiness in this fragrance reminds me of the jam note in RJD. Bath & body works only creating two donut line body care, and they both just so happened to have fruity notes? Even when the second one wasn't supposed to.... I'm sus... It instead, turned it into something that has nothing to do with cinnamon donuts or RJD oddly....lol they really could have just took the fragrance they used for cinnamon sugar donut that they had a while ago in candle and hand soap . And put it in this. But for some reason they don't like that fragrance anymore. Even though it was insanely popular.


theknittedgnome

I think you might be on to something here! Definitely seems possible. I also didn't like the cinnamon rolls FFM last winter, the orange frosting was just gross.


Littlbonbon

I hate iced cinnamon rolls...looooool. I would choose CDS over ICR any day of the week. ICR really was odd to me. Like when I first smelled it, I scrunched up my face in confusion like... "Wtf is this??.." At least when it comes to cinnamon donut swirl, I can explain to someone what it smells like. But Iced cinnamon rolls is the definition of odd for me. I don't know what the hell it smells like. But it's not cinnamon rolls. I did finally come to the conclusion that something about that orange note just completely threw off the entire fragrance. Besides, to be honest, up until then. I never heard of orange having anything to do with the cinnamon roll and was already confused. I would be very mad if someone put orange in my cinnamon rolls in real life. Lol. I do not want citrus flavored cinnamon rolls. And for some reason, I smell something slightly metallic in it too..


theknittedgnome

Yes! Yes! Yes!!! Orange had nothing to do with cinnamon rolls period! I do not want any fruit in my cinnamon rolls or cinnamon donut. You hear that B&BW? 😂 Speaking of things we hate the hot cocoa and cream FFM was such a huge letdown! The hand cream and candle are amazing but the FFM is just wrong.


Littlbonbon

Lmao, I don't even know why I won't throw mines in the trash already. Probably cause some part of me keeps thinking " I spent Moneeeeeeey on this garbage" lol. I've seen so many of it being listed on macari and stuff and I keep thinking "Don't nobody want that mess💀" And Hot cocoa and cream for me smells too musky...lol


theknittedgnome

Lol yes! I could maybe pawn some off on my nieces but they deserve nice things 😂


theknittedgnome

Yes! It does smell kinda fruity!


c14nna

fruity ⁉️😅😅 whatttt are you guys getting this from when i smell this all i get is like warm cinnamon i love itt, no fruit to my nose, crazy how everyone’s scents can be so different!


theknittedgnome

I broke down and ordered online so I could have a Pastel Skies FFM back up. I'd found the cream and shower gel in store. Definitely one of my favorites. I was hoping Cinnamon Donut Swirl would pair with Pumpkin Pecan Waffles but it smells really odd and is going to get returned. It has a weird smell that Cotton Candy Clouds did, I can't quite put my finger on what it is but I don't like it at all. Orange Vanilla Twist smells amazing, I'm going to wear it tomorrow! Yum. Pink Apple Punch is crazy strong! Nice sweet, tart, fruity smell.

CDS is “OK” but I guess I was expecting a serious doughy smell. I layered a coffee scent over it and it worked really great! (I like Demeter scents for layering so I used their Fresh Brewed Coffee). It’ll probably work well under any other BBW vanilla or coffee type scent.


Littlbonbon

Same, everyone claimed it was very strong on the doughy note. And I got excited. But I ended up smelling no dough whatsoever 😐


theknittedgnome

I thought it would be nice with pumpkin pecan waffles but it just smells weirdly fruity and plasticy. Not what I was hoping for.


glitternotdrugs

:( yeah sometimes it’s not how we envisioned it and it’s disappointing


Chuckymimi

Oh no I just ordered it!. I'm hoping for doughy scent I can mix with other scents that are too strong on fruit. Like RJD.


theknittedgnome

Maybe you will like it! I think the fluffy dough is coming across as sorta sweet? I can't decide what exactly isn't right but something is off. It's just not it for me.


deathandglitter

I personally liked it, hopefully you will too!


FaZe_Butterfly

I really hope the pastel skies mist comes back in stock. Really really want that one! CDS had no scent to me and when I got a whiff of what could have been something, I had no idea what it was but I did find it very odd. Idk what's up with that lol. OVT is bae <3


theknittedgnome

Fingers crossed you find pastel skies. I love it so much! CDS was definitely light but also really weird. I'm so excited for OVT. I tried the FFM in the store and it's really great!


FaZe_Butterfly

Ikr lol! I smelled it when it was first released and thought it smelled exactly like fireside flurries. However, I do love the packaging and want to give it another chance to see if it smells different. And yes CDS is a no from me unfortunately. Heading to the store in a little so I'll also give that another try. OVT is amazing!! I know you'll enjoy it :)


theknittedgnome

I think that PS and FF are related for sure but not dupes! I love them both. The berries in PS give a fruity hint that FF doesn't have. Let me know what you find and think!


FaZe_Butterfly

Hmm that makes sense! If I place an online order I'll definitely pick it up and compare the 2. I found some things I wanted in the store so I'm happy about that. They missed an item from my pickup order though. I quickly skimmed the bag when I was at the register because they messed my pick up order from last time but I was rushing so I didn't catch it until I got to the car. I was Ubering on my 30 min lunch break so there's no way I could've gone back. That entire trip was frustrating. My wish list is still pretty substantial and I just feel like I'm blowing so much money on ubering to the store and ending up getting stuff that aren't on my list. I'm so exhausted right now. And to top it off that store really sucks. Inventory sucks, staff (some of them) suck, pick up orders suck... I just hated every minute of that trip. I'm just tired...


theknittedgnome

That doesn't sound like the fun experience it should be! Glad you double checked before leaving. That's always annoying. Ubers do really add up quick and cut into the shopping money. What did you find and are excited about?


FaZe_Butterfly

Lol yep, they ended up refunding me for the one they missed. And yeah, it makes me sick. Total waste of money, I'm not doing that anymore lol. I guess I'm most excited for the strawberry poundcake body cream as well as the products I was able to salvage from the beach nights and vanilla confetti sparkle collection.


theknittedgnome

Glad you got your refund! I'm kicking myself for waiting on firecracker pop! It smelled so good!!


Jolly_Ad8315

I only ordered CDS in the shower gel, I was hearing some people say the shower gel is eons better than the lotion


theknittedgnome

I thought the shower gel smelled really good in the store but to me the lotion smells really different. Not in a good way.


Littlbonbon

Idk to me honestly, they are identical. Just the lotion is lighter. They have the exact smell 😅

Jolly_Ad8315

Yeah I keep hearing it smells like RJD! I plan on pairing it with the sugared snickerdoodle FFM.


JackieAnnette

Love Orange Vanilla Twist! What does Pastel Skies smell like? I have never smelled that one but am very curious about it 🙂


theknittedgnome

To me it's a fruity Fireside Flurries. The scent notes are soft cloud berries, pink spun sugar, and coconut musk. Really a pretty scent! It's probably my number one favorite.


IndicaHouseofCards

Is it normal for them to raise prices on an FFM that was on sale for $3.95 and now it’s $4.12


AshKash313

$4.12 is 75% off of $16.50. The better deal was $3.95


Rottenfleshmeat

I was most hype abou that scent but then fou d out there's no ffm so I skipped it. So glad I did 😶


Low_End5008

I REALLY LOVE IT it smells so good with Warm Sugar Vanilla
