I was in the store the other week and I saw they were selling little bottles of edt for $5 so of course, i got one. I also sprayed it once on the paper strip from the tester bottle.
According to BBW, the notes are:
My biggest problem with this, I heard many of their sale associates go on how long lasting it is and you only need one spray. Oh, please-the smell dissappeared from my test strip in minutes and when I sprayed it on my wrist, 2 sprays, and went to work, it was gone completely by the time I got there(1 hour). I noticed that this scent lays very close to your skin from the very start so expensive or not expensive ingridients, it doesn't last any longer than any of their other scents and is certainly not worth $44 price tag. If it lasts long time on you, its because of your chemistry not because the scents is actually long lasting.
What ticked me off even more is their prices for Forever Red bodycare-$18-20 dollars for lotion or shower gel? Are you kidding me? This is premium designer pricing that you will pay at most department stores. And that brings me to my biggest complaint with BBW-their scents get weaker every year and prices keep going up. I recently bought Vanilla Bean Noel body spray/lotion and also Dream Vanilla Woods(or whatever the name was) and body spray lasted probably 5 minutes. I spoke with other women on fragrance boards who had the same experience-its like spraying lightly scented water on yourself. And because of that, I won't be buying any more of BBW body sprays, its TOTAL waste of money. I recently bought several body sprays from Body Fantasies which costs $6, you can get it at most drugstores and it has lasting power of several hours. BBW should really be ashamed of themselves for ripping people off like that-I actually like Forever Red(although I don't think its THAT exceptional) but I won't be buying it because price is ridiculous for that it is. I wouldn't mind paying the price if the scent actually lasted. Sad.
One of my local B&BW shops was handing out samples of the body lotion. It does smell good, but I'm with you on how it's not anything special despite the more expensive ingredients.
