I think that if you like Japenese Cherry Blossom, then you would like cherry blossom. Its an awsome scent that I think anybody would like.

It depends on your mood, when you want something that'll give you a happy boost, you should try Mango Mandarin. It smells close to oranges, but not so sharp. It is very nice.

For some "spunk" you should try Cocunut Lime Verbena. It does not have a very strong smell, but it is there.

Night Blooming Jasmine- my FAVE! It's calming and just makes you want to smell yourself! My friends keep on asking me what I'm doing when I sniffing my hands.

Japanese cherry blossom or cherry blossom?

answer 1
Ooooh, get both! :) These are 2 of my favourite scents.

JCB is a warmer scent great for the cooler weather. It combines floral with woods, spice, and musk. I love it! It's a very sexy scent. I found the staying power fantastic on me which is a plus. I have the JCB in the body butter and just love it because it is spicier than the other products.

CB is a crisper scent great for warmer weather. It's a fruity floral, so is a bit sweet. But, definately not overpowering. If you have smelled Sweet Pea (which I also love) then imagine CB smelling not as sweet as the SP. Cherry Blossom is definately a lighter scent and I do need the EDT to hold the scent. Think of this one as light and airy.

Good luck as I know how it is when choosing scents. I tend to buy way too much because I just want them all!!!

I love both scents, so it's difficult for me to choose which one I like more. Japanese Cherry Blossom is a heavier and more "perfume-y" scent and Cherry Blossom is a lighter and sweeter scent. Both fragrances are very different, but either one is sure to be a purchase you won't regret!

I say that it depends on the season. I recommend Japanese Cherry Blossom during colder weather and I recommend Cherry Blossom during warmer weather. It's Summer right now, so I've been gravitating more towards Cherry Blossom lately.

They're both okay, but Cherry Blossom is more feminine and Japanese Cherry Blossom reminds me of men's cologne. So if you like the more feminine, floral scents then go for Cherry Blossom, but if you like more masculine ones, go for Japanese Cherry Blossom. But I still like Cherry Blossom better.

I am going to to say Japanese Cherry Blossom. It's a "spicier" scent, very sexy and sophisticated. I don't dislike the Cherry Blossom, but find the CB is a bit too floral and sweet for me. If you like the spicier scents, than go for the JCB. If you like soft floral, go for the CB.

Good luck! :)

Just my opinion but I really like Cherry Blossom alot more than Japanese Cherry Blossom only because JCB smells a little too much like baby powder for my taste.... So, if you are a baby powder lover, JCB is your choice, if not definitely go with CB. I hope this little tidbit helps you make your decision...

i find that most scents last a few hours. i typically use warm vanilla sugar and coconut lime verbena. they last about 3 hours. but depending on what scent you are using is going to differnciate the longness. something heavier and with a deeper smell will linger longer than something like a cotton blossom scent that is very light and airy. hope at helped

depending on the fragrance, how many squirts you use, and if you layer it with body wash, lotion, and then the mist.

I am not familiar with the Instant Aromatherapy line, but for a school girl I highly recommend Country Apple, first in the body cream and then in the body lotion. I usually apply this product when I am feeling low; there is just something cheerful about it and it smells wonderful. It is a very appropriate scent for a child. It also has a shower gel and a body spray, each equally delightful. I wish your little girl all the best.

Definitely try the Eucalyptus stress reliever. Also use the aromatherapy stamina roller. I was skeptic at first, but I feel lost if I don't use my stamina roller aromatherapy on days that seems to last long, like a child at school. It has a mixture in the oils you rub on your wrist and breathe in a sensation of relief and energy almost. Plus it small enough to put in a purse or even your pocket, and no one will notice that you carry with you during the day.

I recommend Vanilla Bean Noel. It is sweet, warm, and full bodied. It really does smell wonderful. I also recommend Warm Vanilla Sugar. It is also warm, but a little less sweet and lighter. When it is layered with the body spray the fragrance is pumped up and lasts longer. There is something comforting about both scents.

My favourite vanilla from BBW is the Warm Vanilla Sugar. I love vanilla scents and am pretty picky when wearing them. I love WVS because it is such a comforting smell. You can definately smell vanilla, but I think the coconut and sandalwood tones make this vanilla not a "boring" vanilla.

Vanilla Noir is a deeper, darker scent with tones of fruity and floral which do come through in the scent.

I haven't smelled the Vanilla Bean Noel, but hear it is sweet and yummy. I had one from BBW years ago called Sugar Cookie and it was a sweet vanilla smell. I liked it, but was too sweet for me to wear all the time. If VBN is like this, I would go for the WVS because the WVS isn't an overly sweet scent.

Great question! Who would have thought there could be so many takes on vanilla! :)

I think Vanilla Bean Noel is the best vanilla scent. It is very warm and sweet, but not too sweet. It has caramel in it, which gives it that something special. You can buy it only during the Christmas season.

If you like a dark vanilla, then Vanilla Noir is good. If you like a lighter vanillla, then Warm Vanilla Sugar is good. It is not quite as sweet as Vanilla Bean Noel, but it is still warm. It takes about twenty minutes really to radiate the scent, at least on me. I recommend layering it with the body spray; it gives it a boost and the scent lasts longer.
