Bath & Body Works Gingerbread Latte Arrives for the Holidays!

bath-body-works-gingerbread-latte

The new, limited edition Bath & Body Works Gingerbread Latte has arrived with Holiday 2016 and I can’t wait to try it.

How about you?

Bath & Body Works Gingerbread Latte is definitely on my try list but I have to admit I’m not terribly keen on the way Bath & Body Works has handled gingerbread in the past. It’s a bit too harshly cinnamon for me! Not enough sugar and spice and all things nice for me. Not to mention when they do latte blends they fail terribly! I mean Pumpkin Marshmallow Latte is a total win but Coconut Pumpkin Latte? It smelled like peanut nuts to me. But I’m keeping hope alive here!

This one contains notes of Santa’s Gingerbread awww cute and Frosted Pear as well as orange zest. The middle notes have brown sugar, wait, pear and brown sugar? Didn’t we just get all that in the Bath & Body Works Pear & Brown Sugar? But hey, that was a win so….! There’s also a bit of vanilla latte in here with dry down notes of fluffy musk, whipped cream, and soft but warming sandalwood.

It probably doesn’t smell exactly like a Gingerbread Latte but hopefully it’ll be unique enough to keep us happy.

Bath & Body Works Gingerbread Latte is available now in stores and at bathandbodyworks.com.

    I don’t think I’ll try this but talk about cute design on the front of each of these!

    I’m curious about this one. Hopefully it smells somewhat of gingerbread. I wish their new scents were more unique, they all start to smell the same to me. Generic and weaker as the years have gone by. Too bad. I’d love to smell like a true Gingerbread cookie!!!!

    I would definitely give it a sniff test, and if it passes that, it might come home with me!
    I am also interested in the holiday candles and accessories.

    Must try for me! The “latte” scents in the past have been nice for cooler weather! 🙂
    Isabella, quick question on body wash. I am looking for a nice milk & honey scented body wash. Do you happen to know of any that are not discontinued? :/

    Wandered in a few days ago and gave this one a sniff. I didn’t love it because it was a little TOO cloying for me, but I did walk out with all the Vanilla Bean Noel. I’m sad they got rid of the Nourishing Hand Soaps they rolled out on the fall (the ones that came in every pumpkin variety you can imagine). I wanted to buy more — they really do keep your hands soft and moisturized! Good thing I bought, like, 8. Digression aside, do try the Vanilla Bean Noel. It changes a little every year, so it’s hit or miss, but this year’s batch is really nice, and I find myself applying the hand cream at my desk pretty much constantly just because it makes me happy, when usually I neglect my poor hands.

      My store didn’t have it sadly, so haven’t smelled yet. Thar bad eh? I’m still curious! I did see all the new signature stuff and wanted to indulge but I didn’t! I like hand soaps too 🙂

    A coworker brought in Gingerbread Latte and everyone loves it. It smells like cookies at work!!!!

    I went to bath & body today to look for gingerbread latte and they didn’t have any in? Is it only in certain stores?
