Review of Bath and Body Works Cashmere Glow by CorelliaCalling
[BATH & BODY WORKS SERIES #8] Forever Red is supposed to be B&BWs hollaback to the department store fragrance counter, but with all due respect, I think Cashmere Glow captures a much more convincing aura of throwaway luxury. The notes—bergamot, golden peach and apricot, jasmine, and a huge question mark the formulators call “cashmere musk”—are so seamlessly and expertly blended, it’s not easy to separate one from the other; they all fuse into what can best be described as rich, inviting warmth. It’s a comfort scent. My favourite thing is the uncharacteristic restraint of its sweetness; the vanilla isn’t going to make anyone think you’re on the dessert menu. Correct me if I’m wrong, but excepting jokes about a zombie apocalypse, I don’t think that being cannibalised is on anybody’s bucket list.
