New Fragrance at Bath & Body Works!

Bath and Body Works - Midnight Pomegranate Shower GelBath and Body Works has a new fragrance out, and it is to die for! It is called Midnight Pomegranate, and it is a warm, exotic scent that is going to be a hit this season! Of course the name sounds irresistible, and everybody knows that Bath and Body Works’ exotic scents are always flying off the shelves (gotta love Japanese Cherry Blossom!), but what drew me in the most to this scent was the ingredients. Here they are:

Fragrance Top Notes: Pomegranate, Sparkling Citrus, Dewberry, Anise, Cinnamon, and Nutmeg.

Fragrance Mid Notes: Cassis, Black Berry, Iris, Jasmine, and Raspberry.

Fragrance Base Notes: Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, Tobacco, and Patchouli.

How amazing does that sound? You can get the Shower Gel (left) for $9.50, or check out the rest of the collection here!
