I just heard that this is their new and latest scent that will be coming out this month. Not sure when because noone at my store seem to know the release date. I will be of course, sniffing it as I do all their scents but I don't think its going to be "Love, Love, Love". I was really dissapointed with BBW lately because after few years producing good and distictive scents that were as good as many department stores offerings, they backslid into forgettable and generic territory.
Love, Love, Love has a notes of: berries, white plum, juicy pear mid notes: peony petals, lily of the valley, freesia bottom notes: blonde woods, glittering vanilla musk.
I am withholding judgement at this point but their latest and much hyped up offerings were extremely bland and generic so I guess I am not holding my breath.
And on the subject of Malibu Beach-I was looking very much forward to trying this scent because it was supposed to be "beachy" with fruit and coconut notes but despite trying this scent half a dozen times since its arrival, this is very meh. Anyone remember limited edition Vanillatini scent from few months ago? I still have a bottle and Malibu Heat is its slightly fruitier twin. This is not the first time BBW had repackaged almost identical fragrance and I am sure it won't be the last. I remain their customer because I do LOVE a lot of their products but I really wish they would be a bit more creative with their offerings.
And on another note-as you all know, I am a fragrance fanatic but just recently I made a resolution to myself. Because I have so many fragrances, I will NOT buy anything anymore unless I am madly in love with it and can't stop smelling it. Its going to be hard..
