We've discussed this in the spring 2008 thread, but I thought it was time these products had a thread of their own.

I got a chance to see the new CO Bigelow stuff today & here were my thoughts. I smelled most of them, but wasn't motivated to smell Grapefruit or Rosemary Mint.

Coconut: Warm & milky scent. Didn't really smell much like coconut at all. This actually reminded me of Almond in the former Apothecary collection. It's nice. Yes

Lavender: Strong herbal lavender, much like the Lavender Chamomile in the Aromatherapy collection. I think the color they use for the shower gels is the prettiest. Yes

Lime & Coriander: Very fresh lime scent! Love I think this will be a must have for the lime fans (men & women alike).

Wild Berry: Fruity sweet scent. It's nice, but I think I'd probably end up getting tired of it halfway through.

I also wish the lotions had some color to them. It just seems weird. They did a good job making the shower gels & hand washes look vibrant, but the lotion looks blah in comparison. Crap

Will all BBW stores be getting these? Or only select ones?

I really want to try them, especially the Coconut and Lime & Coriander, but my local store is really small.

SS, the only stores that will be getting them are the flagships. I think that's unfortunate since all the stores sold the previous Apothecary line.

I smelled all of them today. I agree with all of Megans reviews. I did smell Rosemary Mint and Grapefruit.

I really liked the Grapefruit, I wasnt expecting too though. It actually smells more like Oranges than Grapefruit to me. I actually also liked Rosemary Mint, which also surprised me. Not enough to buy it though. I smelled mostly mint with this one.

Coconut didnt smell like coconut at all, I was getting hazelnut from it. Or some type of nut.
I actually liked them all, but the Lavender, but I hate the scent of Lavender. The SA told me her favorite was Lime & Coriander, but for that store the best sellers by far have been Wild Berry and Grapefruit.

I'm wearing the wildberry as i type and to me it smells like a powdery cranberry type fragrance. indeed, the coconut smells exactly like the old almond and the grapefruit is almost exactly the same as the old clementine.
