Brand: Bath and Body Works Disney Princess Collection
Context & thoughts: Originally I was only going to get the Cinderella collection as that’s my daughter’s favorite princess. However, when I made my purchase, candles were B1G1 Free and body care items were B3G3 Free. So I ended up also getting some of Ariel’s collection.
Product Info: Purchased the Candle, Body Lotion, Shower Gel, Shimmer Mist, and lip gloss 👄
Review & recommendation: I didn’t get to try out any of the other collections but between Cinderella and Ariel… Ariel was my favorite 💚💜 Sadly, Cinderella does have a much stronger smell and I can see my head hurting after a while. On the other hand the Ariel scent was much more subtle and clean. 😊
... Read moreIt's always so exciting when Bath & Body Works drops a new collection, but their Disney Princess line? That's next level magic! I know many of you are just as obsessed as I am, and it's not just about the scents – it's the whole experience of bringing a little bit of Disney enchantment into your home. These limited-edition releases are something I always look forward to, and finding the perfect pieces for your collection is such a thrill.
Talking about the Ariel collection, which totally stole my heart, the scent profile is truly captivating. The official notes like 'Sea Salt Breeze,' 'Golden Citrus,' and 'Coral Waters' perfectly capture that fresh, aquatic, and slightly sweet vibe. It's exactly what I imagine Ariel's grotto smelling like – clean, bright, and utterly refreshing without being overpowering. Unlike some stronger scents, this one truly does evoke a calm, serene feeling, making it perfect for a relaxing bath or just to brighten up your living space. The shimmer mist, body cream, candle, body wash, and lip gloss all carry this delightful fragrance, letting you layer the scent or enjoy it in different forms throughout your day. I love that little quote on the candle too: 'Create a world you want to be a part of.' It really adds to the magical touch and makes these items feel even more special.
Beyond Ariel, I know many of you are curious about other princesses featured in the collection, like Disney Belle or Princess Tiana. While I focused on Ariel and Cinderella this time around, Bath & Body Works usually does an incredible job of capturing each princess's essence. For Belle, I'd imagine warm, cozy, perhaps slightly floral or gourmand notes, evoking a library study or a classic rose garden. Imagine a scent that makes you feel like you're curled up with a good book! For Princess Tiana, I could totally see something vibrant and fresh, maybe with hints of magnolia or lily pad, reflecting the lush bayou and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans. These collections often include not just body care but also home fragrance items like candles and, importantly, those gorgeous accessories like candle holders or wallflower plugs that are highly collectible! Keep an eye out for those 'holders' if you're looking to complete your princess-themed decor. They often feature intricate designs unique to each princess, adding a touch of elegance and whimsy to any room.
My biggest tip for shopping these limited-edition collections, especially during a big sale like the B1G1 free candles or B3G3 free body care, is to go in with a plan but be open to discovery! Sometimes, a scent you didn't expect will surprise you. Also, if you’re collecting for specific princesses, make sure to check release dates and be ready to snag your favorites because they can sell out fast. It’s always a good idea to sign up for email alerts or follow their social media to stay updated. It’s all part of the fun of being a Bath & Body Works and Disney fan – a little bit of magic for your everyday! Don't forget that even if a scent is strong, sometimes a little goes a long way, so experiment to find what works best for you!
