This is one of my most favorite times of the year, and not just because of the snowy weather or the aspect of going gift shopping for family and friends, but because of the wonderful scents of Christmas. I’m not talking about freshly baked cookies or the aroma of a fresh Christmas tree; I’m talking about body mists, lotions and shower gels that are reminiscent of the holiday spirit. If you’re like me, and absolutely love Christmas-y fragrances, then these nine scents from Bath & Body Works are just what you’re looking for to get you in that festive mood!
I love this scent from Bath & Body Works, it reminds me of a freshly baked apple pie, but somehow smells even more delicious. Winter Candy Apple carries notes of red apple, rose petals, candied orange, maple leaf and cinnamon. It’s a refreshing mix of warm and floral scents with a hint of fruitiness. This body mist is perfect for daily wear, and if you’re looking for a longer lasting scent, then I suggest that you first layer with the shower gel body wash, then the body cream and lastly add the body mist. This will ensure that the yummy aroma lasts throughout the day. Winter Candy Apple is a definite must have for holiday scents.

This festive fragrance is for all of the vanilla lovers out there! Vanilla Bean Noel is a fantastic scent that will remind you of sugar cookies fresh out of the oven, and who doesn’t love such a mouthwatering aroma? The notes in this body cream are vanilla bean, sugar cookies, caramel, whipped cream and musk. The musk and vanilla are what truly add that delectable scent of warmth. Body creams are also perfect for this time of year to combat dry skin. I prefer them to lotions because they penetrate into the deeper layers of your skin, and will keep you moisturized for longer. Vanilla Bean Noel is truly a classic sent for the holidays.

One of my all-time favorite scents for Christmas is Twisted Peppermint. I actually ended up falling in love with this scent so much that I bought it in the candle version as well.

And if you’re a lover of peppermint like me, then this scent should definitely be your go-to! The shower gel works the best as it adds that light fragrance of vanilla peppermint to your skin without being too over-bearing; as we all know peppermint is a very strong aroma. Twisted Peppermint will have you smelling sweeter than a candy cane this season!
