omg, this is one of the nastiest scents I have EVER smelled. I tried to like it and I really expected it to be more spicy, and all I can compare it to is the smell of a nursing home. I put it on one day and I was like 'what is that awful smell?' it has great lasting power, but it's an awful scent

Top fav scent. Sad it's being discontinued.

I love tea. Smells good and refreshing. Like nature. Not sticky-the lotion. Smooth and classic.

I picked this up on impulse during the SAS this January, and after I bringing it home I have yet to use it b/c I really just don't like the way it smells at all. It's actually kind of sickening to me. It reminds me of hot boiling tea, with a hint of zesty ginger. I usually like ginger in anything, but this mist just doesn't do it for me. I think one of the main reasons I don't like this fragrance is because I don't like hot tea at all. Too bad I chose to get the body lotion and shower gel because it's just sitting in my swap items box. Oh well, hopefully someone else will enjoy it more than I do.

I really like this scent. It is unique and nice. I prefer the lotion because it is soothing.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this product. This scent is very warm and soothing. It's not a very 'feminine' spray in that it doesn't reek of flowers and vanilla. You can definitely smell the white tea with a tinge of ginger. At first, I thought this smelled very 'masculine' and didn't think to use it. One night, I decided to try this spray in hopes that it would react with my body chemistry, and make it smell amazing. Surprisingly, it did.
Now, I spray it on right after I take a shower; it helps me relax. I wish that Bath and Body Works would put it back on the shelves since the only way I can get it now is either online or during the semi annual sale...
Thank you B&BW for this amazing scent.

This is such a great summer scent. I picked up the lotion and splash at the SAS for $3 each. It's bright and just slightly warm but also clean-smelling. It's not overbearing in the 98 degree heat here which is definately a plus.

This scent is divine.
Light, fresh, delicate, invigorating. I love this scent in the winter (because that's when I first started using it) but it's wonderful & light enough for all year round.

This is probably one of the few BBW scented items that I will buy over and over again, and I've bought quite a few that I've gotten tired of within several weeks. Not this one. It is by far my favorite and I've stocked up on this till the next sale. I wish it would last a little longer though, as I find it quite fleeting, but I reach for this far more than any other sprays/frags I have in my collection. Unlike some of BBW's other offerings, this never becomes overwhelmingly sweet or candy-ish, nor does this develop isn't something chemically abrasive with its attempt to be "fresh. This is uplifting and mellows down into a nice tea later. BBW should bring this one back as one of its regulars (without changing a single thing).

LOVELOVELOVELOVELOVE. This scent is so uplifting and energizing. It should be in their aromatherapy line!! Seriously, a whiff of that perfect blend of spicy ginger, white tea, and bright citrus leaves me feeling charged and ready to take on the world!!! love it! should'nt have been discontinued!!

aww man, I really like this scent a lot, probably because it brings back memories of my spring break trip in Cancun, if anything. It is somewhat of a citrus scent but more unique- definitely the blend the name suggests. Great scent for the spring/summer, hope they make more of it!

I LOVE this scent so much and I can't believe B&BW doesn't sell this in all stores permanently. This scent is so enchanting I crave smelling it, and it is so unique I find it hard to describe. It actually kinda reminds me of the smell of Marigolds, which I love! But this scent it's in a class all its own -- not floral, not food, not water, not "clean".... it's slightly spicy and mild and beautiful. Whenever I use the shower gel my husband always says "You smell good, what is that?" He's not usually one for noticing my perfumes/lotions/potions so it's a sign haha. My only regret is that I didn't discover this beautiful scent sooner (before B&BW decided to axe this wonderful product which by the way would sell like hotcakes if they brought it back full time *cough* hint hint ;)

This is a great, inexpensive tea scent! I have the shower gel, lotion and body splash and they all have that warm, sweet, clean and spicy scent that is so easy to wear and perfect for daytime.
I'll wear this by itself when I want to be casual, or dress it up by layering it with Prada's Infusion d'Iris. Not sure why, but the two together have garnered me compliments left and right - never when I wear either scent alone, so something about my chemistry and this combo works! It also is excellent with L'Occitane's White Tea EDT, if you're wanting to stay true to tea. :)
It's only available occasionally in the stores but you can find it online at Bath and Body Works as part of the permanent Signature Collection CLASSICS line.

I love this scent, and am so sad to see it discontinued! It really is one of the best BBW scents--light, fresh, clean-smelling. The ginger note is spicy and warm, but not overpowering. A great, clean-smelling lotion for warm weather.

I just can't believe they would stop making this scent!

The best bbw scent, IMO. Its very fresh and clean, like its namesake. Its its namesake... white tea (which is very subtle and delicate) and ginger (which gives it a spiciness).

There are over 200 reviews on the bbw website for this body spray...So it must be getting more attention there than on here. This and night blooming jasmine, I instantly fell in love with these scents. It's fresh, cool, soothing, calm, feminine, and uplifting. I've been using this for day and the jasmine spray for nights. Something addictive is in this scent. I think the ginger must make it spiced but also edible, and tea you drink, so this is a familiar comfort fragrance. It smells like a scent you would smell in a spa product. The most wearable bbw scent for everyone. I prefer to wear these more than their other scents.

I went to the big after christmas sale the other day and originally just bought one spray and one lotion in this scent plus a few jasmine items for my mom. After wearing it I went back and got more! It is so pretty and nicer than I expected. It's sweet and slightly spicy at the same time. I wish that they had this all the time but I stocked up yesterday so I shouldn't run out any time soon. :) If you can get your hands on this go for it because this is a keeper!

White Tea & Ginger is a lovely light and warm fragrance. I love green tea scents and they wear well on me and this tea scent is great for fall and winter. This was one of the best scents Bath and Body Works had and I am sorely disappointed to see it being discontinued. I stopped going to BBW after my mid-teens. On vacation I used the White Tea and Ginger hand soap. I had to visit the next BBW I came across ... only to discover that the scent was being discontinued. The body splash is still available on the site, at this time, but I find BBW splashes to have too much alcohol and I don't particularly care for them. I wish they still carried the body lotion and the hand soap and I really hope to see the lotion back at the semi-annual sales. I've discovered online that The Body Perfumery carries a fragrance called White Zen Tea, which they say is their take on White Tea and Ginger, and I plan to try that out.
