Be Joyful

I was wondering when this fabulous fragrance would be added to the database and here it is. It's discontinued, now, sadly, but it is one of my favorite perfumes from B&BW. I didn't care for the cap when I first saw it many years ago, too kitschy, but the juice is fantastic. It's a fruity, floral, gourmand scent but fresh and uplifting from the zesty Clementines. Layered with BBW Mad About You lotion and the scent lasts all day.

I had a full bottle of this in a lotion stashed under my bathroom sink. I’d forgotten this entirely. Found it just in time to wear on this bitterly cold day. I layered it with Jimmi Choo Jimmy Choo. Amazing combination for me. It’s so freakin sweet my tiniest dog hopped on my chest and proceeded to try to lick it off of my hands! she quickly realized it didn’t taste like it smells, she continued to lick her lips.

I used to wear this back in the summer of 2016. It's a fruity, slightly tropical fragrance with a big dose of sugar thrown in. I can't smell any jasmine or white florals. It's bordering on gourmand for me. Just delicious juicy fruits plus sugar. It works for day and night and any time of the year imo. It's not too heavy nor too light that's why I reached for it all the time. Love it!

It’s not a terribly complex scent but I can’t think of anything else like it either. Maybe Gingham? It’s very sugary sweet with some citrus. Also, it’s easy to wear everyday and inoffensive to most. I’m surprised this scent never came back.

Full notes: A joyful blend of fizzy clementine, frosted jasmine & shimmering sugar. Additional notes include winter melon, mango, honeysuckle, dulce de leche and amber. I used to collect the perfume mini's they created for their holiday scents. I stopped because I found that I didn't like a lot of them. I ended up giving them all away except for this one and vanilla rum. I like this one because it's very fruit forward. Lately bath and bodyworks has been creating many fruity floral gourmands that are indistinguishable mashes covered in a synthetic musk. I like their scents where you can smell a particular part of the scent a lot more than others like cucumber melon, country apple, or vanilla bean noel. They do fruity scents in particular pretty well. You can tell bbw had a hand in here with a little bit of the musk, but otherwise it almost smells like an escada scent. I get a strong clementine and mango that is juicy and sweet. It has a slightly floral fuzzy warm musk in the back ground. The florals are too generic smelling to pick out for me. Overall, I like this one. Fruity and fun!
