👑Princess Tiana x Bath & Body Works…A Total Miss?🐸
Listen, cousins… when I saw Bath & Body Works was dropping a Disney Princess Collection, I was skeptical yet excited at the same time. I mean, I haven’t shopped there in over a year, but it’s Disney! And when I saw Princess Tiana had her own collection?! 💚 HELLO, representation! I just knew they were about to eat this up… or so I thought.
I waited for the hype to die down before heading to the store, and honestly? They fumbled this one, cousins. 😩 I love Tiana, so I was expecting a fragrance that felt luxurious, rich, and warm—something sweet, maybe a little spicy since cooking is her passion. But when I took my first sniff… 😬 immediate disappointment. It smelled like one of those cheap body sprays we used to drown ourselves in back in middle school. 😭
I gave it another sniff just to be sure, but nope, still wasn’t feeling it. Then I checked the notes—lilies?! That should smell divine, but I didn’t get that at all. The scent just felt… off. 🫠 I wanted to love this so bad, but it’s a 1/10 for me. Maybe it’s just my nose, though, because the associate said it was one of the most popular scents in the collection. At least my cousins are loving it! 😂

Bath & Body Works has recently launched a collection inspired by Princess Tiana from Disney, causing excitement among fans of both the brand and the princess. With her character symbolizing ambition and culture, many expected high-quality scents that reflect her essence. However, initial reactions have highlighted a disconnect between expectations and delivery. Customers anticipated rich, warm fragrances resonating with Tiana’s culinary passion, particularly favoring notes like vanilla or spices for that luxe experience. Yet, the collection leans towards more generic scents, sparking conversations on social media platforms. For those who appreciate scent notes, the expectations were challenged by the prominent use of delicate water lily and gilded amber, which many found too artificial. Customers reported feelings of nostalgia but not in a favorable light; more like memories of cheap body sprays from their youth rather than luxurious spa experiences. Price points ranging from $7.95 for hand soap to $26.95 for candles have fans questioning whether the collection delivers on its promises of sophistication and charm, especially in the context of Disney's reputation for excellence. Although the fragrances received mixed reviews, the collection's representation of Princess Tiana remains a significant conversation starter. As public discourse continues, it will be interesting to see whether Bath & Body Works makes adjustments based on customer feedback or introduces new scents that resonate more with the character's identity and story.
I wore this one alot and I get compliments when I do. The only thing is since it's the summer time, for some reason the bugs go crazy for the scent...so I haven't wore as much as I wanted this summer.
