Bath and Body Works Sparkling Plum Prosecco Review
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a lady in possession of a fondness for fragrance, must be in want of a good fall Fragrance around this time of the year! Soon the earth will quack and the coffin buried deep beneath the grounds of Los Angeles will open to reveal the Liliths but that my friends, happens to be weeks away but feels like years as I eagerly await what dear Puddin will create to celebrate his most beloved daughter’s birthday!
For me Fall fragrance means gourmands…! Notes of coffee, the last maple syrupy soaked slices of French Toast from Sunday Brunch, the toasty scent of marshmallow, the traditional creamy pumpkin spice blend we’re all such basic bitches for…..! Those are all the things that make a great Fall fragrance. It always feels like there’s so much potential for Bath and Body Works to capture Fall in their fragrances but somehow, someway, they don’t always get it right. I mean, I really enjoyed Pumpkin Marshmallow Latte and yes, the new Sugared Cherry Crisp scent is divine. But oohhhhhh how I wish they’d do something truly gourmand and foody scented! That Vanilla Mocha Cafe just didn’t do it for me.
Before creating charcuterie boards was a thing with food blogs, IGers, and Tiktokers I was creating them. Why? Because I really can’t cook and putting together a charcuterie board is super easy and I don’t need to cook anything. Grab a bunch of pre-made meats, some grapes, some crackers, and cheese and you’re good to go. Perfect for brunches, snacks, or when you’re having company over! It’s table grape season and you’ll find a variety of them available in specialty cheese stores (try Talbott and Arding if you’re in the Hudson Valley area as towards the end of August they have some fantastic table grapes or H-Mart who’s starting to stock a variety of Champagne Grapes or even Trader Joe’s) to pop onto your board.
With Fall, comes gapes and wine and wine tasting…! The Hudson Valley really embraces the social aspect of wine. I happen to not be a drinker but I love the fragrance of a good wine and it does on some level remind me of Fall.
So….
On a blind buy I decided to purchase the new Bath and Body Works Sparkling Plum Prosecco which is part of the Fall 2020 Signature Collection. I’d probably have been much happier with a pumpkin cookie or a French Toast fragrance but since they never do me wrong with Black Cherry Merlot I decided to give Sparkling Plum Prosecco a try out!
