One of my favorite scents from Bath and Body Works! Wild Honeysuckle is floral and fresh and will spritz up any negative odor. I keep one in my office and car as well and use it throughout the day in place of Febreeze. I love this scent for spring and summer because it is so light and refreshing.

This is a lovely, springy, uplifting scent, and I'd love to rate it more highly. But I get none of the lasting power other reviewers claim. I spritz everywhere, sometimes 15 sprays before leaving my house. I drive five minutes to work and by the time I clock in can't smell it unless my nose is touching my skin.Have tried layering with the shower gel and lotion, but still barely retain the scent, only until the lotion soaks into my skin (though I believe the lotion has the strongest staying power of the three).

Beautiful and sparkling spray, and inexpensive, but too subtle. I never expect Bath and Body Works fragrances to have impressive staying power.I just find this one needs to be generously reapplied every 20 minutes and that is too much.

EDIT - the more I wear this, the more I love it! Just bought the EDT on eBay with the hope it will last longer on my skin and that I can use the body mist for touch-ups throughout the day. I really want to make this my summer scent!

Sweetly floral - I just bought this for the first time in the semi-annual sale and this surprised me how great it smelled. I'm from Alabama and have grown up smelling honeysuckle in the summers.. it grows wild everywhere and the smell is amazing. There's really nothing else that equals that scent but this Wild Honeysuckle is still really pretty! For a body spray it lasts almost all day but fades from the initial spray which is really intensely sweet.

I really love this scent! It's a rare occurrence to discover a floral scented body mist that doesn't give me a headache. I'm not sure what about it appeals to me so much, but it is nostalgic. It can be a little overpowering for the first few seconds its applied, but it dries down to a light honeysuckle scent that's pretty difficult to over-mist and make it overwhelming, imo. Gunna miss it when I run out!

BBW's wild honeysuckle is their replacement scent for the Original Honeysuckle used to sell a few years ago.

The new scent is sickly-sweet smelling, and MUCH less pleasant than their old one was. Their original honeysuckle scent was OUTSTANDING, while the wild honeysuckle messes with my sinuses and makes me want to sneeze!

I wish they would shelve this one permanently and bring back their original honeysuckle!

Probably one of my favorite scents from BBW! It's very floral and sweet smelling, and comes off strong when it's first sprayed, but tones itself down once it's settled into my skin. Although I've heard rumors that this has been discontinued...and I sincerely hope it isn't. I wear this stuff all the time and I love it!

This is LOVELY, and may well turn out to be my go-to scent for summer!

Wild Honeysuckle is a light, feminine-but-not-too-sweet-and-perfumy scent.

I smell honeysuckle, and a hint of some other flower, maybe jasmine (?). I don't think it smells "old lady" at ALL.

Sophisticated, it isn't, but light and refreshing, it is.

I live in the Dallas area, where summers are VERY hot, and heavy scents just don't work.

Lasting power is not the greatest, but when I also use the Wild Honeysuckle shower gel and body lotion, I smell deliciously fresh all day.

The price is very reasonable, so I'll buy this as long as it's on the market!

This smells like summer. Every time I smell this I think of summer...my favorite season! And I love the new packaging. Definitely going to buy again!

This smells really perfumed. I don't know how else to describe it besides perfume. The perfume that is a mix of old people, middle aged people. It reminds me of country towns. Sort of smells like around the beauty and perfume counter area in dillards.

This is a really "true" honeysuckle scent. Nothing extra, nothing lacking. It smells great and lasts all day on me with about 3 sprays.

I like it, but I don't think it smells like Honeysuckle. It doesn't compare to the old Honeysuckle Mist that Victoria's Secret used to make. THat stuff was great!

This is the first scent I bought from BBW. I looove it! The scent is very fresh and feminine. I get compliments when I'm wearing this. People around me would recognize that it smells like our national flower, Sampaguita, but I dont care, I'm gonna buy a big bottle of this.

You know those scents that you try and think "Meh" while in the store but end up loving an hour after you've left? This was that one for me. I returned the new butterfly flower and was trying to choose between this and cherry blossom which I am still SO happy I got but I will return for this, smells reALLY good.

This is one of my favorite B&BW scents to wear every day :) It's just delightful and spring-y. The thing I like a lot about it is that it's subtle and not overpoweringly floral. The subtlety can be a hassle sometimes because when I wear it, I have to re-apply it 2-3 times in the day because the scent fades. It would help to buy the lotion/cream along with it so that the honeysuckle scent lasts. In general it's a lovely, refreshing scent, not too strong, and definitely different from a lot of the body sprays out there. Awesome for every day use. You can wear it anywhere really and go crazy with it. The smell itself, as it says, is soft but alluring. I say go for it if you wanna try this out. I've already used three of the big bottles :D
Overall: Once again, one of my favorites. Very refreshing and airy. You may have to reapply a lot though.

This scent has been out for quite some time I think but I never really tried it, I remember loving honeysuckle as a kid but alot of floral scents are stuffy and musky and 'old' smelling to me. However, after returning irresistible apple (YUCK) I decided to give this a go. It's not my favorite, but I like it. I tend to like scents that are fruity or floral scents that are on the very sweet side, but this is an exception. I'd recommend if you like to have multiple fragrances like me.

I tried both this and the EDT, and I must say that I personally liked the EDT a lot more. The body spray wasn't bad, but it had less honeysuckle, and more musk to it, especially after wearing it for a while. I know the whole point of having a body spray is to spritz it all over, but I seem to like to stick with just a couple here and there, so another reason why I prefer the EDT. I will stick with the EDT from now on.

I think this is an average scent, that smells just like wild honeysuckle is supposed to. However, the real reason I love this stuff, is that everywhere I go, men tell me how good I smell!! I have not worn it a single time without getting a compliment!

I purchased a mini size of this recently because I, too, love honeysuckle. The mini size of body sprays runs $3.50 for a 2 fl. oz. clear plastic spray bottle with a clear plastic cap. I love the mini size in these body sprays because they are so much easier to store (and you can store a lot of scents in very little space) and the smaller size is also perfect for travelling. In addition, I don't have that much invested in it should I later discover that it doesn't work for me or should I eventually get tired of it.


I agree with the other reviewers that this fragrance smells very true to the flower it is named after. I find it refreshing, not cloying but I have found that it tends to take on a "greener" charachter several hours after I put it on. Also, this has very good staying power and I like this as much or more than many of my EDT's or even EDP's!


I will definitely repurchase this as long as it stock, and I plan on getting a second mini for a backup. LOVE!

Oh I am so happy with this!! :)

What's funny is that I actually found out about it through MUA when I searched "Honeysuckle" trying to find a fragrance to match that deliciously scented flower. There is a honeysuckle bush right outside the building where I work and every time I smell it I think "Mmm... I wish I could find a perfume like that!"

I finally got my little bum over to B&BW today and had just missed a sale on the full-sized sprays, so I got a mini since I wasn't sure if it would actually be a good scent after settling.

I'm sure that when I use up the mini I will buy the full-sized (although I'll wait for a sale of course!). While no bottle can really capture the true scent, I think this as is close as anyone will ever get and it really does smell like A flower, if not exactly THE flower. In any case I am satisfied!
