They are both great!! If you lean to fruitier scents you would prefer Midnight Pomegranate. While it maintains all the characteristics of the fruity scents,it has a sultriness that doesn't exist with the others.

Black Amethyst is a dark,brooding scent that contains elements of floral,exotic,fruity,all while topped off with vanilla.

To me, I enjoy both of them. Midnight pomegrante is a sweeter yet bolder scent than the Black Amethyst which is a sexier scent. Midnight pomegrante is a scent that I would wear daily, but I would save the Black Amethyst for a sexy night out on the town.

For me, Black Amethyst is the heavier scent between the two. It's much more of a cologne/perfume scent. Midnight Pomegranate is a lighter, fruitier scent. I personally think the Black Amethyst is too strong, but it might work for you if you like the heavier scents.

Black Amethyst it makes me feel sexy>

I think the Midnight Pomegranate smells better. I don't like the Black Amethyst at all, I think it's too strong.

Well the Pomegranate is sweet where the Amethyst is musky. One smells like powdered kool aide or pixie sticks while the other is deep and rich. If you want a sexy smell then the Amethyst is a must, it remindes me of the Amber if you've ever used that scent. On the other hand I adore my Pomegrante, it's so fun, sweet and playful.
I always say stop in a store and let your nose guide you, if for some reason you can't do that it sounds like the Black Amethyst is what you're looking for.

midnight pomegranate has a sweeter, more tangy fragrance. while black amethyst is more rich and sexy. pomegranate would be a great everyday fragrance, and then amethyst would be great for nights out or dates.

Chances are, if you like Japanese Cherry Blossom, you'd probably like Black Amethyst over Midnight Pomegranate. I like both of them, but the Midnight Pomegranate smells like a deep, dark, rich fruit. It definitely allows its strong fruit notes to come out.
Black Amethyst, like Japanese Cherry Blossom, is strong, but it is also sophisticated, chic, and the two can be swapped interchangably for nights on the town, dates, or just having fun.
Between the two, I'd recommend Black Amethyst if you want the one closest to Japanese Cherry Blossom, but Midnight Pomegranate if a dark fruit scent doesn't bother you.

I just love the Black Amethyst. My favorite is Sensual Amber so it wasn't hard to latch on to this musky fragrence. Get you a 2 oz bottle and try it. You will love it.
If you would like something soft, try mixing Vanilla with some of the other scents. Its amazing

Between Midnight Pomegranate and Black Amethyst, I recommend Black Amethyst.
To me, MP smells too tart and sweet, somewhat artificial and when I bought the cream I couldn't stand to wear it. Black Amethyst is exotic and warm, a very unique scent. I feel sexy but not overwhelmingly strong when I wear it out. Another scent I find to be kind of feminine and sexy is Sensual Amber.

Midnight Pomegranate is one of my favorites! It's fun and flirty and not too heavy. I also really like the new Black Amethyst but it is a bit of a heavier scent. It's a great scent for night wear but but Midnight Pomegranate you can wear anytime!

I personally like Midnight Pomegranate over black amethyst. I find that the black amethyst
doesnt smell nice.

Japanese Cherry Blossom; spicy
Sensual Amber; sensual :)
Warm Vanilla Sugar; cozy

I have more favourites, but thought I'd narrow it down to just 3. :)

Moonlight Path is my ultimate favorite. My second favorite is Coconut Lime Verbena.

Sweet Pea hands down!!! I recommend this scent to everyone and they all love it as well. I get SO many compliments when I wear it. Now the Sweet Pea scent is very strong, so if you don't like strong scents Sweet Pea wouldn't be for you. I also like Velvet Tuberose and Japanese Cherry Blossom. They are all yummy!!

White Tea & Ginger
Peony
Cool Citrus Basil
Japanese Cherry Blossom
Moonlight Path

Sun ripened raspberry & Pearberry they r both so light & refreshing

moonlight path is the best

No one picked mine. Its Blushing Cherry Blossom! Love it!

My new favourite is Sweet Pea, but my all-time favourite is Pear Blossom.

This is difficult to answer because I have a few favs and wear them according to my mood or the weather. If I have to pick just one then without a doubt MOONLIGHT PATH!

That is such a hard question!!! But if i'm forced to pick just one, I'd have to choose Sun-ripened Raspberry:-)

Oh, I love so many fragrances....

But currently Sensual Amber is my absolute favorite.

I love this question.

My favorites are Chocolate Amber, Blackberry Amber, Brown Sugar & Fig, Pear Blossom, Rainkissed Leaves, and Blushing Cherry Blossom.

My last favorites are Cucumber Melon, Sweet Pea, Black Raspberry Vanilla, and Velvet Tuberose.

Depends on my mood, but, I'm with you both on sweet pea. it's hard for me to sell sometimes. Velvet tuberose I find too sweet as well. My favorites include honey suckle (I love the way it has that pungent smell flowers are supposed to have), mango mandarin, and blushing cherry blossom (which was a limited edition fragrance).

A body cream is thicker and better if you want your skin to have a nice sheen and a longer lasting fragrance.
Body lotion is much lighter and does not last as long. Great to be used on the hands with frequent handwashing or just to add a bit more moisture.

The only real difference i notice is body cream takes for ever to dry, but if you have dry skin it really helps!

body cream is gonna be thicker than the lotion. i do agree that sometimes the fragrance does last a little longer in the cream. same thing for the butter. is going to be even more thicker than the cream and lotion.

The Signature Collection Body Lotion is a great jack-of-all-trades lotion. It does things well, but nothing exceptionally well. It doesn't really 'specialize.' It is fantastic for your hands, as it doesn't leave them overly greasy, and it is a decent moisturizer for the body, but I don't recommend it during the harsh winters or if oyu have sensitive skin.
The Body Creams, on the other hand, are slightly thicker, and are the middle of the road in terms of thickness. It is thicker than the Body Lotion but much thinner than the Body Butters. The Body Creams are a better moisturizer for your body, and will be much better suited to combat the dry skin that comes with winter. It does, however, leave your hands slightly greasy.
My recommendation? Get the Body Cream if you have moderately dry skin or need something for winter. If you have very badly dried skin, try the Body Butter. If you've got normal skin, stick with the Body Lotion.

i believe the body cream also has shea butter in it where the lotion has aloe vera

The main difference between body cream and body lotion is the MINERAL OIL! Both nourish the skin equally! If you really want to go for intense moisture, use the body butter. If you are looking for a great lotion to moisturize your skin, select a product that is either water or aloe based. Mineral oil based products will never absorb into your skin, it merely creates the illusion of moisturezed skin! Go for the body butter for all day moisture or continually use the lotion for all day fragrancing!

Body Lotion: Lighter, thinner consistency than cream. Most common all-over body moisturizer. Might not be thick enough for dry skin.
Body Cream: A thicker consistency than body lotion, almost a cross between body lotion and body butter. Mostly used on very dry spots like elbows, knees, and feet. Could be used all-over for dry to very dry skin.
Both are great and depending on your skins needs you might prefer one over the other or use both together (which is what I do).

Body Cream is for dry skin, Body Lotion is for normal skin.

The body cream is thicker than the lotion. It moisterizes better and I believe the fragrance last longer!!! I love body creams!!!!

The most noticable different between body cream and body lotion is the thickness. Body lotion is best to use for the whole body, it rubs in very easily, espeically if you're in a rush. Body creams are more moisturizing, and are especially useful on dry spots like knees, elbows, and feet. Body cream can be used on the whole body, it just depends on how dry of skin you have. People tend to switch to body cream in the winter time due to their skin becoming more dry.

Hi! Body cream has additional Vitamin E which thickens the substance. It is thicker and when applied is a heavier moisturizer. It is good for dry skin types or those hard to moisturize parts (knees, elbows, etc).

I don't have just one favourite as my scent changes depending on my mood. But, if I had to choose a few that I could not go without, they would be:

Japanese Cherry Blossom
Sensual Amber
Warm Vanilla Sugar
Sweet Pea
Classics Rice Flower & Shea

My favorites change by the day! :-)

FRESH VANILLA

I love a lot of them. My top three favorites are Wild Honeysuckle, Velvet Tuberose, and Japanese Cherry Blossom. I use the Japanese Cherry Blossom as my main/daily fragrance though.

I enjoy many of the BBW scents, but if I had to pick a favorite, it would be Warm Vanilla Sugar, hands down!

I like Rice Flower and Shea, Black Amethyst, Green Clover and Aloe, and Mango mandarin

Night blooming jasmine because it is a very nice floral, perfect for daily use. I also like cherry blossom, sea island cotton and sometimes, moonlight path.

My favorite scent is the Ile de Tahit Coconut Vanille--thank you thank you B &BW for brining it back--I have missed it!!!

I love Pineapple Mango for the candles, and fresh pineapple for the soap, and in the sig. collection, I love cucumbe melon. As you can seee I love the fresh, fruity scents. Irristable apple, sweet pea and mango manderin are ok too, but Cucumber melon is my favorite.

My favorite scent is Dancing Waters

Cute question. :)

My girls love the following scents because they aren't super strong on their noses:

Classics:
Country Apple
Strawberry Lemonade
Pink Grapefruit

Signature:
Warm Vanilla Sugar
Sweet Pea

I think something Floraly
-Sweet Pea
-Japanese Cherry Blossom
-Butterfly Flower
-Wild Honysuckle
-Rainkissed Leaves

Or something light
-Warm Vanillia Sugar
-Dancing waters
Hope one of these helps!

I would say something light thats not completely out there. Either warm vanilla sugar or sensual amber

Try the enchanted orchid or the wild honeysuckle, they are floral and very girly

the new kids collection...LOVE the bubblegum

well my daughter is 10 she loves bath & body works...she has sweet pea, cherry blossom, cucumber melon she loves dancing waters she says it smells like she just came out the shower..lol...but i have bought her the children lotions that smells like blueberries..with the matching chapstick...hope this helps...keep it fruity...

definitely sweet pea

Definitely sweet pea or even warm vanilla sugar. sweet pea is very youthful, while warm vanilla sugar is fun-it smells like vanilla! =)

I would pick something fruity and light. Either Sweet Pea, Irresistible Apple, or Mango Mandarin.

Every one has different opinions but, i would try Sweet Pea. I have found that when i am buying gifts for friends of mine, i always get this scent because everyone seems to enjoy it the most. I think a 10 year old would love it also because it has such a sweet scent.

Favorite: Sweet Pea. Best scent of all time!!! I totally recommend it for everyone!!

Least favorite: I have never really cared for the sea island cotton. I don't hate it, but then again I don't like it.

Favorite is/was Tropical Passion Fruit

Least fav is Black Amethyst too over powering

Another vote for C.O. Bigelow Derma Remedy. It is simply amazing! It has Lactic Acid in the lotion. What that does is exfoliate the skin gently by promoting new skin cell growth. What happens to skin in the winter is that as it gets drier, the dead skin cells build up on the top of the skin, giving it that ashy, scaly, flaky look, and making it itchy. The Derma Remedy products "remedy" that through the lactic acid and the intense moisture it provides. Plus an added bonus is that it is Fragrance Free. So it is great for almost anyone, and MEN TOO! It is well worth the price and will cure your winter skin woes!

I have very dry skin all year round especially in the dryer seasons. I went into a store and the girl working had me try the True Blue Spa 60 second hands. It is an orange sugar scrub that washes away dry and dead skin. Then she had me put on Tru Blue Spas Shea Cashmere lotion. I didn't buy that day and the next morning I was in the store buying both products. My hands have never been so moisturized and pretty!!!

Also the Mega Butter in True Blue Spa is wonderful. I use that in combination with TBS In the Mood for Scrub which has shea butter beads. I find that exfoliating and moisturizing helps keep my legs smoother and less itchy.

Either the Derma Ready brand or the Lay it on Thick in the Spa collection. Derma ready kind of has a little bit of a fruity scent and the Lay It On has a shea butter/baby powder smell. I like the Lay it On best..I have had one tube for like a year!

I would try CO Bifelow Lemon Body Cream(you will not smell like a lemon the lemon is not there for fragrance) or the Derma line.

If you like the Signature Collection I would go with body butters because they are the thickest one and are great for winter. If you want to try something new I would try True Blue Spa Lay it on thick because it is thick for this time of year.

C.O. Bigelow Derma Remedy Body Lotion, Body Wash or the Medicated Lotion.

It has the most potent moisturizers you can get over the counter. Great for minor skin rash or irritations due to weather or chemical imbalance.

Oh, Derma Remedy all the way! I have the same problem, and I scratch legs raw. Thd Derma Remedy Lotion works wonders. According to the description here, the lotion increases moisture by 75%. Now I can't say I've used it long enough to actually verify such a nice number, but I imagine with extended use, I will notice the improvement. For the more hardcore, I would suggest the Derma Remedy Medicated Treatment. I 've never used it, but it sounds pretty intense.

Also try searching the website for "Winter Survival Kit". It has Chapped Hands Remedy, Chapped Hands Cleanser, and the Derma Remedy Lotion, plus some sort of SPF 15 lip product. I'm thinking about getting that myself.

The body butters always help me because they're so thick.

TBS is an amazing line of moisturizes. Practically everything has shea butter in it. Lay it on Thick is good for the entire body, while I especially love Look Ma New Hands for my hands.

My boyfriend also has really damaged hands from his job, and especially now when winters upon us. he's been using the Intensive Dry Care Therapy Line (I believe that's what it is called) from CO Bigelow. Its a tad pricey, but the hand cream has done wonders for his hands. And it also comes in a body cream, shower cream... and some other forms as well.

I know I will be the odd ball here, but just wanted to add that I think it depends on the scent and the person.

For stronger... the scent in the EDTs do smell stronger, more powerful than the mists. In the scents I use, I found that the mist smells closer to the creams and lotions as they are more subtle.

I have one scent where the EDT fades drastically after an hour even though it initially comes out with a punch. So much so that I can't even smell it on my wrists. But, the mist version lasts several hours.

Typically, the EDTs should smell stronger and last longer, but it doesn't mean it will. :(

The EDT is much stronger. It is perfect for an evening out or special occasion. The fragrance mist is great for everyday, and especially good for those who want a little fragrance, but don't want to be overpowering.

Eau de Toilettes (aka EDTs) have a higher concentration of fragrance oils than Fragrance Mists so they last longer.

Eau de toilette will last 4-6 hours on your skin. a body splash or fragrance mist only lasts 1-2 hours. Eau de toilette has a stronger concentration of fragrance oil so it will last longer

Eau de Toilette (EDT) and Fragrance Mist have the same fragrance, but the EDT has a longer lasting fragrance. The EDT has a higher concentration of fragrance oils, so the fragrance will last 6-8 hours as opposed to the 4-6 hours the fragrance mist will give you.

the fragrance mist is lighter. the eau de toilette is a more concentrated formula.

EDT's are stronger because they're meant to be a perfume and evening/professional scent. The splashes are light like deodorizer, just a subtle splash of fragrance.

Eau de Toilette

Less alcohol

The Eau de Toilette is going to have a much stronger fragrance than the Frag. mist. It is also going to last longer. The Frag mist is great for a touch up of frag throughout the day.

The Eau de Toilette. EDTs, as they are abbreviated, contain higher than average concentrations of fragrance oils that are used to scent the perfumes, and are the ones that would be most similar to the ones at high end department stores.
Fragrance Mist (formerly known as Body Splashes), are light perfumes that are ideal for quick touch ups, after a shower before applying perfume, and are made for easy layering.
When you layer a fragrance, it creates are stronger, bolder scent, and it stays on you longer in the day. This is why you would use the same scent in a shower gel, body lotion, fragrance mist, and perfume: to get the maximum effect.

C.O. Bigelow, Blue Elixir.

The C.O. Bigelow mens lie is the best. The number one selling fragrance is the Blue but I personally got my boyfriend the Black it smells so good, everytime I hug him I could just stay there forever.

The end-all, be-all in my opinion is the C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream in the emerald green box (usually kept in the C.O. Bigelow / Men's Barber collection).

It is imported from Italy and is used by Italian barbers. It's a really thick cream, that lathers extremely well. It also contains eucalyptus oil, and that cools your skin.

I fight razor burn, and have for years, and to be honest, this is the only shaving cream that I've used that even remotely comes close to helping. It is wonderful.

None of us can answer which of the four Barber Collection fragrances is best for your boyfriend, so go smell them for yourself and decide which is most like him. The blue is a really good seller, and tends to be a lighter, younger fragrance. It's cool and refreshing. The green is a more clean, natural, light fragrance. The red has a bit of a darker tone to it, as it's slightly spicier than the blue and green. The black is the darkest and the most adult and sophisticated for men.

My husband likes the original Bath & Body Works scents for Men. I really like the scents of the Mountain Frost and Glacier Bay shower gels. He smells so good all day! It is getting more and more difficult to find these scents though, and he is not a fan of the C.O. Bigelow or Molten Brown stuff.

BBW has mens product...and I buy my husband the "red elixer"! There are 4 different kinds so I guess it depends on what your bf would like.

C.O.Bigelow makes a really good mens line.

1. Molton Brown - Re-charge Black Pepper bodywash

2. C.O. Bigelow - hair & Body Wash Elixir black

Both smell wonderful and amazingly make you feel good!

It depends on the type of products you're looking to get him. i personally think the C.O. Bigelow mens line is fantastic. the blue elixir smells absolutely amazing. they have lots of different products as well. or if you wan an unscented line, the C.O. Bigelow Lemon line is fantastic.

Try the C.O. Bigelow barber collection. I recomend the elixir black. There are many others to choose from. All are pretty good.

co bigelow barber mens collection without a doubt they have a full line of shower and shaving products
