Magic In The Air

Fluffy, warm and nutty. I love how pronounced the almond and iris notes are. People notice the persimmon top note also and ask me about it occasionally as it is somewhat unexpected. Someone once said this one was generic but I disagree! The coconut note throws it from being a purely Christmas/Winter frag (as the name suggests) and makes it something you could also wear in the summertime. Sweet yet not cloying. Powdery and clean. The sandalwood, jasmine, vanilla and musk seal the deal for me. I love this one. If there were an incense-like note in there it would be perfection. I only wish it had better staying power! I will continue to hunt for a good deal on the EDP version of Magic Is In the Air. But if you like any of these notes, I would give this a try! It's very lovely. Like a soft, warm sweater on a cool fall/winter day. Or a powdery, fresh yet skin smelling experience (in the drydown) on a spring/summer day.

Ages and ages ago a friend gave me a bottle of a perfume called Village Aspen Glow. One whiff of this took me to NY in the Winter of 1980! Scary! Yet...wonderful...a lovely nostalgic fragrance. Even though it's 85 degrees here in Phoenix at 9:30pm in early November, this persimmon-powdery-vanilla is a perfect evening scent. I don't smell anything I'd identify as "jasmine" on my skin. The dominant note smells like almond. I agree with the review that describes this as "creamy"...that's exactly right for my nose. Also - definitely hints of marshmallow. I have this in Whipped Shimmer Body Mousse. I rarely buy anything but hand soap from Bath & Body Works, but I love Magic in the Air!

Wow, this is a real beauty. I didn't think I would ever love a Bath & Body fragrance that much, but I do. Really love it. B&B really did a great job on their Christmas season line this year, and this is to me the best scent they have ever came out with. It is sweet frozen white sparkling iris dusted with powdery coconut shavings in a fairytale that is a Winter blizzard at the blue hour. Soft thick fluffy snow covered evergreens in a magic forest. This is where the Winter iris queen lives and she smells like magic in the air... A Marshmallow World sang by Bing Crosby is playing on the wind...

I own this fragrance in the diamond shimmer mist. It might just be my skin chemistry but I'm smelling banana? Not in a bad way at all.. like a very light fresh banana with sprinkled powdered sugar & vanilla laced florals! It really is a magical fragrance & how I'd imagine Tinkerbelle to smell! Once it reaches it's dry-down more of the almond notes start to reveal itself. I find this to have very impressive longevity and can still smell it after several hours! Pretty darn impressive for a body mist...love it!

This is hoard worthy to me and I'm so upset I didn't purchase more back ups when I had the chance. This scent smells like a magical fairy cocktail/potion. Absolutely ethereal yet so inviting and comforting. It's so unique as I've never smelled anything like this before. I see it reminds someone of Escada's Magnetism, I have no idea how but these are two fragrances I love and now cherish close to my heart. I would do anything for BBW to bring this back again, UNCHANGED.

I really love this new fragrance ( I have the mist , and saving for the perfume). Lovely scent reminds me of a combination of things : similar to the old BBW Pear Blossom, BBW Rice Flower and Shea , and amaretto coffee creamer. This is a year round scent , not just seasonal. I really get the pear and iris notes ,bourbon too. Love this one. Floral and creamy. Reminds me also of Jennifer Anniston in the blue bottle

One of BB&W Best fragrances to date IMO.. It's light fluffy whimsical easy on the nose; to me has almost a faint play-doughy undertone to it. Easily One of those scents I reach for when I find myself not really in the mood to spray a perfume on *I have the lotion*..ABSOLUTE MAGIC, LOVE IT! & I can see why Vanilla; my favorite note in scents. :D *Keep putting scents out like this BB&W!

This scent really stood out to me in store. Upon first sniff there is some Marc Jacobs Daisy/Perfect going on in the background, mixed with that signature Bath and Body Works fruity floral craziness. I wore it for a while but then I noticed it started giving me headaches, and I realized after a few hours it transforms into a burnt rubber smell on me. Sigh! Too bad.

I'm in LOVE with this fragrance! By far their best in ages! Even though it's one of those 'close come hither' scents that was released in fall-winter...I can see this being year round. My skin picks up the fluffy, cozy notes & I've gotten compliments from people who come a little closer asking what I'm wearing. I'm hoping to get the eau de parfum for Xmas.

I blind bought this fragrance and i’m glad i did. It’s soooooo refreshing! It’s like that out of the shower scent with a hint of floral. Unusual notes for sure, but i think this is what makes it so good. Definitely lasts long. Pair it with the body cream and you are good to go! 9/10!

I am so surprised to see jasmine in this. I don't get it on me at all. I get an almond-vanilla mix with a hint of musk and a tiny bit of sandalwood with some iris there to keep it from getting sickly sweet. One of BBW's best releases in a loong time, in my opinion!

I found this one too late! I'd have loved to have a bottle of the perfume. This scent is so sweet, light, airy and perfect! Best BBW scent in a really long time. My husband likes exactly 3 of my 60 perfumes and this is one of them. LOL

One of my favorite scents from b&bw. I don't waste my money on their body sprays but I love the lotions and body creams, and sometimes the perfumes are good too. This is in my top ten favorite B&BW scents. Soft, elegant, enchanting.

very sweet and soft :) i feel like it'd fit a colder weather more. comforting to me.

Pretty, softly sweet, ethereal, delicate, effortlessly feminine, elegant, airy, fluffy, soft, powdery, comforting, inviting, slightly fresh, inoffensive, casual This whispers of ethereal beauty with a delicate sweetness and a comforting fresh softness. A cozy vanilla almond scent swirls throughout notes of powdery musk, warm and creamy sandalwood, and fresh florals with a slight watery hint. I have had this fragrance for years in the perfume, mist, and lotion. I used to use the lotion all of the time because of its soft scent of delicate sweetness and hint of freshness that made it pair really well with other fragrances. It was my go to lotion because it would never overpower whatever perfume I was wearing, but could enhance it with its soft scent. This is a nice fragrance for when you want something more subtle rather than bold. I think it’s great for casual occasions, hanging around home, running errands, work, and anywhere that you want to just smell pretty and nice without making a big statement. I think this is one of those fragrances that really works well throughout the whole year. I get good performance with Magic in the Air, especially using the lotion and fragrance together. It lasts about 5 - 6 hours before becoming just a skin scent. The projection is decent, especially for a soft scent... it radiates out about an arm’s length from me.

I remember smelling this in the store, and my impressions were much as the other reviewers have stated: baby powdery, cookie-like, soft, etc. I was astonished to see Persimmon listed as a note above. Now I'm intrigued and want to go back and smell it again. Alas, I think it's discontinued and is only available at spendy prices on eBay. Alas.

The name in and of itself is intriguing. Magic in the Air is a powdery, baby soft vanilla. Comforting. Soothing. I can imagine a mom breastfeeding her newborn in a quiet, peaceful room. This fragrance smells like a mom and baby. Tenderly sweet. Powder soft. I like it.

Another fallen hero. Magic in the Air was one of only bbw body mists that smelled somewhat creative and lasted more than 30 seconds. I get a lot of pear blossom initially, and then it dries down into a nice woody vanilla that you can still smell several hours later.

This is perfect for summer and everyday wear in my opinion. It’s sweet, but light and airy, just like the name Magic in The Air suggests. The almond note is a delectable touch that makes it. It also feels clean enough to reach for after a shower.

This si so beautiful! It's fruity, bright, floral, fresh, clean and smooth. Probabaly the cleanest scent in my collection that I enjoy. Such a oldie but goodie. Great for anytime wear but I think it's discontinued now 😕
