BATH & BODY WORKS RAINKISSED LEAVES REVIEWS
Fragrantica: Beautiful refreshing light aquatic floral. Almost identical to L'eau Par Kenzo to my nose, although I think lasting power is a little weaker. Perfect for spring & summer & overall humid weather. Like the reviewer before me said, it would be nice on a rainy day, preferably a warm one for staying strength. Very gentle fragrance, even a little girl could wear this because its fresh, gentle and feminine & not sexy, IMHO. Lovely unobtrusive, inoffensive scent & a generous size too, it lasts me over a year. I think most people would find this more than pleasant.
Fragrantica: When I first saw this on here I figured it was a decent scent but would probably be overly floral and aquatic...I WAS WRONG! I loved both Rain and Grass from Marc Jacobs but this...this is superb! My favorite green scent is Homme Nature by YR but where that one is green and earthy this is light green, airy and clear. On the initial spritz I get the grass and leaves covered with dew and rain but the grapefruit is almost a silent partner adding only its sparkle. The watercress is a truly unique addition to the soft, sweet muguet and jasmine. If there is peony in this it is most likely a lite white one. The greens accent the subtle florals but do not overpower them. As it begins to dry down the light musk and clear woods are there with the sweetness of hedione but it is almost as if the spirit of the wood is present and not true wood itself. As with most natural based scents I expected it to shine and fade quickly...not so here! I can still smell the faintest scent on the tester strip 24 hrs.later..amazing! Sillage: good. Longevity: surprising. Overall: 3.75/5. This is in the women's signature collection @ B&BW; however, I think anyone who appreciates natural scents and loves nature will dig this one. I can see a man wearing this in the summer or spring just as easily as a woman, and he would not come off as "too poofy". If you love the scent of dew-covered leaves and flowers after a late night rain this is one is for you...
Fragrantica: What can I say about Rainkissed Leaves except WOW! I absolutely 100% love this fragrance from Bath and Body Works! I only wear this scent in the spring and summer because our days and nights get so hot sometimes that I need something light and airy. However, it still has lasting power! This fragrance is grass, petals, stems, dew, rain, flowers, and watercress all wrapped up into one and it's just lovely. Don't purchase it if you are looking for something floral. Although it does have nuances of floral, it is primarily a very natural "nature" type scent. I'm definitely a champion of Rainkissed Leaves because it makes me feel good and clean, and it NEVER fails to elicit comments about how good it smells. Try it! I don't think you'll be disappointed!
Fragrantica: I'm so sad that BBW decided to discontinue this scent. This is one of their BEST scent to date. It's different from any of their products. Every time I wear this I imagine myself sitting on a cabin, looking at the field of green grass after the rain. It's green everywhere! there's a kind of sweetness in the middle note,honeydew-like scent but soft enough to blend with the crisp green leaves & lily in the background. Surprising longevity too! A well rounded scent with affordable price.
Fragrantica: This was my holy grail fragrance. Starts off very heady with a hard rainfall in the forest at night, an almost licorice note that thankfully dissipates. As the rainfall slows and morning comes, we're left with the soft dewy scent of delicate florals and the sweetness of raindrop covered tropical leaves. A beautiful scent all around. During the spring and summertime I would use all the products B&BW has in this scent. Such a terrible shame its been discontinued. Now with it gone B&BW has lost my patronage as everything else just doesn't even come close to measuring up to this.
Fragrantica: I love a fresh, green scent and this is just what the doctor ordered! One of my summer standards and I get complimented on it all the time!
Fragrantica: I can't believe I haven't reviewed this one yet! It's so gorgeous! I've been a fan of BBW for years and have smelt so many things, but this one has always been my favorite signature line scent. /It's grassy, clean, wet muguet, and grapefruity. The smell reminds me of fancy cucumber spa mask, an open meadow on a day where it's 75 degrees with a gentle breeze, the smell of wet green leaves after a thundershower. I know it seems silly I can't pick one, but they just all come to mind. This is a favorite of mine to wear around the house on beautiful or rainy days. It's very relaxing and light. If you are bummed you can't find the EDT don't be, the mist lasts almost as long anyways. I think the only real perk of having the EDT is that the sprays are more contained, the cloud the mist creates gives me the sneezies, which is annoying but still worth it. The lotion is also really nice for prolonging the scent. A wonderful hidden gem in the BBW collection if you ask me :). The only scent I will go out of my way to buy during the semi annual sales, the only thing I would bother to order online too.
Fragrantica: After hunting various online sites and forcing every cousin that lives abroad to visit the nearest malls and find me this fragrance, I spotted it online and got it shipped to India. Never mind the expense, since the efforts were all worth it. If you are looking for a fresh and rejuvenating fragrance, this one would be the Holy Grail! An early morning walk through misty grasslands, a beautiful and much-awaited spell of rain, fresh spring breeze - it's like this fragrance captures notes from these. Opens with Earthy and fresh grass notes, settles to peonies towards the end on the my skin, with wood and musk offering some depth to it. My only regret is the inclusion of grapefruit that somehow stays constant right from beginning to the end. Also, like the others before me who mentioned the unbearable first 2 minutes of spraying, I feel something could've been done to avoid that glitch. Stays on for 4-5 hours and then disappears to nothing, moderate sillage that would never offend anyone. My go-to fragrance when I'm in the mood for something simple, fresh and clean. Definitely re-stocking if I come across it again!
Fragrantica: I will admit, I am absolutely in love with this fragrance. The first time I used it, I smelled “green” but nothing too specific. The second time, I could smell the new leaves, the rain, it smelled just like if I walked up to a green plant after a storm and gave the underside of the leaves a good sniff. Its clean, fresh, and perfect for warmer weather. I would consider this a unisex fragrance, as its simply clean and fresh and natural. I also have the body mist – and that I am not too crazy about. There is just something missing that the EDT has and that body mist does not.
Fragrantica: I unequivocally adore this fragrance. One of the cleanest, freshest scents I own. It smells like what a magical, flawless storybook forest would smell like right after a gentle rain shower. Rainkissed Leaves always manages to bring back charming, serene memories for me.
