Paris by Bath & Body Works smells too fruity. If you want to smell like a fruit salad, then wear it. There is a hint of rose, which is nice, but not enough to overcome the powerful fruity smell. continued >>
Im in love with this whole line. It smells amazing. The body butter feels so incredibly soft and whipped like that it makes my skin feel wonderfully soft all day.
Smells stays on the skin and lingers lightly throughout the day. It reminds me a lot of Juicy's viva La Juicy
re: staciarose22,
Amor Amor is from Cacharel, Amour Amour is from Jean Patou. Not sure which you are referring to
I did not like this at all and I was so excited to try it :( It smells like someone crushed up some sweet tarts and poured them in a bottle.
It doesn't smell like Sweet Pea, it smells similar to Cacharel Amor Amor perfume. It's been discontinued or isn't sold in the U.S. anymore. This is a girlish scent, but it isn't extremely sweet or fruity. I think people are associating the top notes of strawberry and cassis as sparkling champagne notes. They do not dominate the scent. I don't smell any tulips at all. This is probably the Miss Dior Cherie of BBW. I picked up the full sized body lotion free through Seventeen magazine. In the store you cannot really smell the notes clearly because there are so many scents in the air. At first I thought it would be boring, too. It's not. I'll probably pick up a small travel spray once those are available.
This is obviously for a certain age group since it's in the magazine. The rules are a free bottle for women 15-29. Ends 9/12/11. All you do is tear out the page in the magazine and take it into the store. Update: 8/26/11 My original review clearly states the perfume brand/name I think it is similar to, so I don't know why there was confusion.
Top: Sparkling Mandarin, Petite Strawberry, Cassis, Pink Champagne, Apple Blossom, Dewy Freesia
Middle: Luscious Peach, Jasmine Petals, French Tulip, Water Lily, Frangipani
Dry: French Vanilla, Coconut Milk, Amber Wood, Sandalwood, Creamy Musk

Absolutely love this! It's sweet, floral, feminine and perfect for everyday. It seemed unique, not the run of the mill BBW scent. I adore it (bought the body spray in 2 sizes and the lotion... great free gift too!) Definitely a winner in my book.

I was very underwhelmed but this product. When reading the description I had a certain thing in mind and was extremely excited. I spent the extra buck on the small bottle to get it home for a fair review. I didn't like it until about 2 hours later when it was very cooled down. It's way too sweet mixed with fruity-floral, hard to explain but it's not attractive. I got a headache and that NEVER happens to me with B&BW products. The past few items B&BW have been duds to me (i.e. Carried Away, Country Chic). I wish they would bring back my staple Blushing Cherry Blossom since everyone loved that and stop trying new stuff!!! continued >>
I had the preview of this and it is sickeningly, cloyingly sweet and fruity. Yuck!! It gave me an instant headache.
The packaging was whimsical and very feminine, and I personally really like it. I, for the lack of a better term, LOVE this scent to death. It is officially my favourite BNBW scent, replacing Secret Wonderland. The mandarin note in this scent makes it refreshing and sweet. It is an everyday scent that women of all ages can wear.

I have a tiny bit of an obsession with anything that has to do with Paris, so I was very excited about this release. And when I went to B&BW and they had the mini bottles of lotion, I smelt it and fell in love. It's such a light, girly scent. So on the launch date, I went and braved the enormous crowd and bought most of the products in the line (body butter, shower gel, bubble bath, spray). I couldn't be happier.
I've been underwhelmed with B&BW's other recent releases, but they've impressed me with this. :) continued >>
