Bath & Body Works Twilight Woods ~ perfume review
When I heard that Bath & Body Works would be releasing a fragrance called “Twilight Woods,” and that this fragrance would evoke “a romantic walk in enchanted woods,” I imagined a blend of pine and cedar, a few drops of resin, and an ozonic note hinting at an oncoming snowstorm. When I later saw the list of notes, I realized that it would actually be a woodsy-fruity gourmand, with “top notes of Juicy Berry, Sparkling Mandarin, and hint of Coconut, heart notes of Creamy Frangipani, Soft Mimosa, Wet Honeysuckle, Wild Freesia, and Apricot Nectar, and basenotes of Oud Wood, Skin Musk Captive, Vanilla Milk, and Warm Woods.”
Twilight Woods is the newest addition to Bath & Body Works’ Signature Collection line, in keeping with the recent string of more complex, “abstract” fragrances (such as P.S. I Love You, as opposed to yet another Cucumber Melon type). It was developed by perfumers Harry Fremont, Jane Konnyu, and Honorine Blanc. This fragrance could just as easily have been named “Twilight Orchard,” because a ripe apricot note runs throughout its development…
Bath & Body Works P.S. I Love You ~ fragrance review
P.S. I Love You is the latest fragrance release from Bath & Body Works, and it takes its place in the “Romantics” family of the company’s Signature Collection. It was developed by perfumer Dave Apel, who designed the fragrance as a “modern experience” of the rose. In this respect, Bath & Body Works is joining the trend that Stella started in 2003 (has it been that long?!). The company still seems to be hedging its bets, perhaps fearing that a rose perfume might be judged too old-fashioned by its target audience: roses don’t appear in the fragrance’s name or label, and in the website photos, the bottles are accompanied by flowers that could just as easily be peonies as roses. There’s a similar fear of commitment, so to speak, in the promotional text. Early press releases described P.S. I Love You as a scent of “timeless love” and “heartfelt love,” but the company website now calls it “Our flirtiest fragrance ever!”
Everyone has his or her own ideas about love, but I’d personally place this fragrance beyond the initial, giggly glow of a first date and into the more comfortable, intimate zone of an established romance…
