BBW had Perfect Autumn home fragrance stuff out today. They were available in HFOs, room sprays, candles, & Wallflower refills.

This years scents are:
Ginger Vanilla
Harvest Berry
Leaves

Ginger Vanilla smells better than I thought it would. It smells more like a nice vanilla w/ a hint of something extra. The ginger scent in it isn't that strong. As far as Harvest Berry, I think it smells somewhat similar to the holiday Frosted Cranberry fragrance. I don't think it's the same, but I think if people like FC, they'll probably like HB.

These will be out on 9/4. I read a post on MUA saying that these scents will also be available in bodycare items.

ooh, that sounds good
at least the ginger vanilla is a different scent, im looking forward to smelling all of them
thanks for the info Megan!

So does this mean no more pumpkin? Not that I'm complaining, I still have a whole pumpkin candle left over from last year. But it was their signature fall scent for so many years that it's interesting to see it fall off the docket. I'm glad they're bringing back leaves though!

Hmmm -- doesn't seem like BBW Autumn without pumpkin -- maybe they'll bring it out for thanksgiving?

You've GOT to have Pumpkin!! I'm breaking out my Pumpkin stuff Sep 1. I can't wait for fall!

The perfect autumn pumpkin is now called Pumpkin Patch ..
Pumpkin Patch

The fall scents will be in body care also. The Holiday scents include WCA,VBN, Festive vanilla fig and Yuletide pear vanilla.

Thanks for letting us know! It's good to know pumpkin will still be around in some form.

Mmm I smelled the candles they had out at the counter this week and the Ginger Vanilla smelled rich and wonderful

Ginger Vanilla sounds wonderful. I wish they had that scent in body care!

I just got one of the fall preview books and yes, all of the autumn scents will be available in body care. I'm kinda diggin' the new labeling, too. Leaves smells fantastic...for some reason, it seems to be much stronger than last year, at least in HFO form. I wish I knew that the Wallflowers would be as well; the ones last year had no staying power whatsoever.

Lucky you getting the preview book! I went today too (also my first time since SAS!) to get some Fekkai stuff I ran out of and the preview books were gone. There are 2 BBWs in the mall and neither had anymore. One of the SAs told me they've been OOS in my area for a few days now. I wanted to wait until I actually needed something, but I guess I waited too long this time.

Anyway, I also got a Ginger Vanilla candle. I love this one! I'm not sure if it will work for me in bodycare, but I can't wait to try it in Sept. The candle is a bit strong after burning for a while but has a great throw.

I sniffed the Leaves and agree that it does seem a bit stronger this year. I loved that one last year, so I'll probably be getting a few home fragrance items in it too.

Harvest Berry was just ok to me. I'll wait until the body care is available in this one to finally decide whether or not I like it.

I got a ginger vanilla candle too. I'm not sure how crazy I am about it and it's still too hot to be thinking about fall fragrances but I'm so excited for the new stuff!

Upon second sniff I'm almost 100% sure Ginger Vanilla = Creamy Nutmeg

It does smell very similar to Creamy Nutmeg, but I'm not sure that it's exactly the same scent.
