Very Pretty!

In this subtle fragrance, softly scented freesia blossoms radiate a sophisticated, very feminine essence.

This is one of my favorite Bath and Body works scents. It's a nice sheer floral that's alright for every day. The only thing that I don't like about it is that I can't purchase it in my local stores anymore. Maybe it's just me but it seems like there isn't a whole lot of variety in the stores anymore.

I never really cared for this scent but after my favorite youtube guru mentioned how much she loved it(funny how that works), I ordered it for $5. I LOVE it. It's a soft fresh floral scent, nothing overpowering or nasty and not too flowery. The scent does not last all day but when you layer it, it has more staying power. I will def repurchase this.

I love this scent. It's just a nice soft floral scent you can wear every day. It's just too bad you don't really find it at the stores anymore. It's not discontinued because I saw that it's available on their website. It doesn't last all day but if you pair it with the Sheer Freesia body lotion or body creme it last a good while. It's definetly a Bath and Body Works Classic Scent.

i wanted to buy this scent to change up things and it smells good.

it comes in a cheap plastic bottle with 8oz/236ml. 10.50USD. i always think bath and body works overprice things so i only buy it when its on sale.

its an OKAY scent. there are better smelling things.

I bought the sparay and the lotion off of Ebay..along with a bottle of their Jasmine Vanilla lotion (don't think they carry this anyomre). I got she spary and lotion both in big bottles..and paid a total of 8.00. Godd deal..but I now wished that I have saved my money. The scent to me is a soft floral..buy after the drydown, there's..well..barely anything.I spritzed it three times today before I went to my friend's baby shower. I know it wasn't too much b/c my ex-coworkers aren't afraid to tell me when I have too much perfume on. Anyway the drydrown produced barely anything, so of course..it faded into nothingness. Sheer Freesia makes a nice lotion, but a terrible fragrance. I'm waiing for my BBW Gardenia right now from Ebay. I know I won't be disappointed b/c i had it before.

I snubbed Sheer Freesia for years thinking it inferior to the old "purple" freesia just on principle =( and also because in the store I couldn't really even SMELL the Sheer Freesia and thought it just smelled like alcohol or like nothing.
Recently I had been using a little tube of the body cream on my hands at work, since I wash my hands a lot and need moisturizer on them. The fragrance has been surprisingly enchanting. I found myself really liking the scent as it faded thru the day, yet retained its cleanness. So I decided to give Sheer Freesia an honest try and actually bought a splash at the Semi-Annual Sale. I'm so glad I gave it a chance. I really only do ONE spritz on my wrists because I don't like tons of perfume. It smells clean and fresh but not like a laundry detergent scent. Just smells like a clean, dry floral yet not sweet or overly floral. I think this one is worth trying out on yourself and seeing how it works with your chemistry. It's like no other "floral" I have ever tried and I'm so glad I gave it a chance!

Definately a summer scent! Light and fresh, It is one of the scents that b&bw likes to bring in for a little while, then takes it away, so I stocked up on it at the last sale they had. It's not one of my must have's but it's nice for a change.

I loved this scent, and I hate how they only take it out for their semi annual sale. It's light, flowery and classic. I haven't found a girl who doesn't like this scent, and even guys seem to like this.

I LOVE this scent. After they changed the country apple scent, I decided to give this a try since I looked so refreshing. It has a really light, feminine scent. I does wear off kinda quick, but it's still great. I love the whole line of this scent.
Recently it's been hard to find it at bath and body works near me, but it's still on their website!

I got the lotion and body splash at the semi-annual sale for 75% off. I thought it smelled beautiful, but it fades after a few minutes. I'm left with nothing. It smells so clean and light....very feminine and romantic.

I love this fragrance. I don't know why this has gotten a low rating because this fragrance is beautiful. It's soft, feminine and not overpowering. One day my husband and I were in a nursery looking for plants for our garden and the wind blew carrying with it the most wonderful floral scent. I walked around the entire nursery smelling every flower and none of them had that smell. Finally I realized that wonderful scent was coming from me! That's how subtle it is; I couldn't smell it on myself until the wind blew. It's there, but it won't give you an asthma attack. I'm going to stock up before it's discontinued!

I agree with cosmeticaholic that the original freesia scent was MUCH better. This does kind of smell like bug spray and alcohol and just isn't as crisp and clean as the original freesia scent. If you like the old freesia scent don't bother with this one. And definately try before you buy. I definately will not be repurchasing.

MY FAVORITE B&BW SCENT!! I'm so upset that they're discontinuing it, but I've stocked up BIG TIME in the last two sales. I now have 5 bottles of shower gel, 2 bottles of lotion, body cream and splash (because I don't use it that much). I'll probably be going back for more because I can't find anything else I like as much as Sheer Freesia!

Love fragrances that have citrus/floral/fresh notes. Sheer freesia is all of that in small doses. I have a bottle in my bathroom, bedroom, car, and gym locker. Whenever I need a quick pick me up and want to smell like I just go out of the shower, this is what I reach for.

This is a nice, everyday floral scent. I received Sheer Freesia in a gift set that had the body wash, lotion, and body spray. I really have enjoyed this set because I love to layer scented products. After awhile, this started smelling a little too much like laundry detergent/hairspray while still being floral. Not bad, just weird. I will continue to wear but probably will not buy when I run out.
