Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin

The last time I smelled this I believe was 2018 or 19 and I fell in LOVE with it. I finally bought it in 2020, then I bought it again this year. Everyone is saying it smells different, but I still love it as much as the first time I ever smelled it. It's reminiscent to me of going to Grandma and Grandpa's house as a child in the good old days back in the 90's when things were a lot simpler. My Grandma always had some kind of cinnamon candles in their house. She also filled me up with lots of sweets. This transforms me back to a time when I felt safe and warm, and indeed makes me feel safe and warm. I also admire this because it is DIFFERENT and not your typical everyday white floral, boring bath and body works that they have been putting out the past few years. I have most of the fall collection because most of them smell unique and beautiful. And I LOVE all of their pumpkin-centric fragrances. I definitely try to only go buy some of their stuff when they are having a 5.50 sale ;).

This is one of my signature scents. It gets me compliments from people I walk past in the mall. It doesn’t smell like pumpkin pie, There is only a hint of warming cinnamon. The strongest note on me is Jasmine followed by raw pumpkin from the garden. It’s fruity and fresh. The clove, vanilla and cinnamon smell like a cup of expensive tea. It’s a fresh winter Jasmine that I adore. The raw pumpkin rides on the wings of the vanilla blending seemlessly with dear jasmine. Spicy cinnamon and clove add the flourish that sets it apart from other fragrances. Very much a niche scent. Happily it smells different on different people but always delicious. I’ve only been able to acquire the body mist but look forward to getting the perfume.

I love this scent so much! The initial scent is fruity apple and sweet pumpkin spice. The dry down is raw pumpkin and spicy ginger/cinnamon amber. For me, it envelopes the magic of October - the feeling of that first chilly night - the sweet flavors of autumn - brilliant orange leaves against bright blue skies... Unfortunately, the lasting power is awful compared to other B&BW mists. It's almost not worth purchasing because of that. People have commented that my car smells good after I've sprayed it on myself inside the car so there's that... Perhaps if they came out with an EDP of this scent it would be stronger and last longer? I'd love to try this as an actual perfume!

Oohhhh, what an understated scent!!! And I suppose niche lovers would look down at BBW, but do yourself a favor and try this. To me this is absolute LOVE, to eat your arm off. I would never dare use it as a room spray (lol), that should be a sin. This is supremely comforting and warm, especially for colder days. There is just a hint of spice, sweet cinnamon (instead of in-your-face spicy cinnamon) and gourmand pumpkin. Any gourmand lovers should try this! The longevity isn't great, but who cares, when you can just spray it again?

This is a Fall staple for me, thanks to my mom wearing it for many years, so it has the nostalgia factor that makes me love it even more. The pumpkin is almost bubblegummy; it's very sweet. I mostly get pumpkin and vanilla from this. It's very strong! There's a SLIGHT warm spiciness to it. This could be described as too sweet, depending on your taste. It is by no means gourmand, but the sweetness is powerful. Definitely an iconic scent that deserves its annual return.
