Butterfly Flower Bath and Body Works for women

When I spray this on I smell loads of honeysuckle. It's a sweet spray and not overpowering at all.

I just tried this about half an hour ago. I really enjoyed the feminine & green scent that it had to it at first. It came off as a very earthy honeysuckle-like scent (maybe that's the mimose?) But after a few minutes, I grew a little green myself. :/ Maybe I smelled it too much? It's still a nice fragrance but it can become a little overwhelming. Good for Spring and Summer, but I may return this and get my favorite, Wild Honeysuckle (also discontinued this year. Go figure).

I used to wear this fragrance a lot and regularly got compliments for it. At first, what attracted me the most was the mimose, one of my favorite scents.
I don't know if I wore it too much, but now I find it too spicy and I'm struggling to finish the bottle.

I loved, loved this fragrance. Literally got a compliment everyday i wore it. Smells like my favorite flower to me, Lillies. If any of the "don't like it" people have it and want to sell it to me (I'm in CA) please let me know how much! I went into BBW today because they had a buy three get three free (I'm in college) and discovered it was discontinued. (I stocked up last year when the same deal was going on... and was heart broken it's gone.)
Love seeing all the descriptions and reviews.
Thanks!
Lily Pad... ha ha ha, j/k

This is a unique scent for B&BW. The banana note comes in with tea at the beginning for a fresh opening, then settles down into the florals (the orchid is very nice). The slight note of coconut compliments the banana, but without smelling like this is a perfume straight from the tropics. Instead the tropical scents blend into the florals very well, making a very complex scent for the price. It's light, fresh, and perfect for spring and summer. It's unfortunately been discontinued.

Gah! Foiled by the packaging and the marketing! I bought this after just smelling the top notes, big mistake! I got a huge tube of body cream of this stuff and seriously couldn't stand it. The flower smell is so strong and intense my eyebrows practically fry off everytime I open the tube.
Somehow I thought butterfly flower from BBW would be more young and sweet smelling, but it is not! This smells like something a woman much older than me would wear.

I have a real love/hate relationship with B&BW these days, because so much of what they put out has a strong, sickly sweet vanilla undertone to it, and I hate sweet fragrances and I absolutely despise vanilla! But occasionally they get it right, as is the case with Butterfly Flower. This scent is concentrated springtime! It really does smell like the butterfly plants that grew around my house as a child. Now the question is, how long until they discontinue it -- every time B&BW makes a fragrance I love (Green Clover & Aloe, Calming Waters), they stop making it within a year or two, while the really odorous ones (Sweet Pea, Cucumber Melon, Vanilla Sugar) they just keep cranking out forever!

This was the only scent that my fiance ever went out of his way to say smelled good to him when I put it on. Unfortunately, I got bored with it quickly, myself. I think I'm going to stick to my vanilla and coconut scents. :)

This is a beautful pure floral fragrance, with just a touch of fruitiness, but not overly sweet. This is very nonoffensive and smells wonderful.

What a relief to see banana listed in the notes of BBW BUTTERFLY FLOWER. I was wondering whether the SIRA DES INDES-like banana-ish facet of this fragrance was a figment of my imagination. Phew! Yes, this is a big fat floral fragrance with a tropical vibe and, specifically, a serious banana side. I am most familiar with this scent from the bath gel and lotion, but after my bath this morning, I decided to take out my sample vial of the edt and luxuriate in a triple layer of this scent. Then, to my great surprise, I also found that I had a huge bottle of the special edition Fragrant Waters BUTTERFLY FLOWER splash, which has been tweaked somewhat from the original, but is close enough to bear the same name. Knowing that I would soon be drenched in perspiration as I made my way to the library, I sprayed the Fragrant Waters splash all over my body before departing.

All in all, I'd say that this is a winner. I generally prefer the body products to the straight-up fragrances of BBW, and BUTTERFLY FLOWER is no exception to that general rule. However, I would definitely recommend this particular edt to gals who like big, billowy, voluptuous florals a la FRACAS. Here we have mimosa, orchid, and syringa rather than tuberose as the focus. Is the quality the same? Of course not. But the spirit is definitely here, and I might even consider adding a bottle of BUTTERFLY FLOWER edt to my collection now that my bath gel is gone. Recommended!

Update: whoops--too late! It's already been discontinued! /-:

I bought the fragrance mist to take with me traveling as a day scent because it reminds me much of my "signature", Always and Forever by Jessica McClintock. I would also characterize it as a green floral as the tea is so definite--I don't feel it's citrusy at all (where's that banana?!). It reminds me of sweet cut grass.

Smells like gardenia and freesia. Use a light touch with this one, it can be very strong. A great summer time fragrance, I would definately avoid it during the cooler months.

This scent is beautiful. Just like the name. I would categorize this as Green Floral though, because it's definitely not fruity. The Banana only serves as a complimentary opening note. It might be overpowering at first, but wait until 15 minutes and it will give you the most beautiful soft scent of flower meadows in the spring. Extremely feminine scent and this perfume is actually the flowery scent that I can wear.

I love this for spring. It reminds me of a favorite childhood memory: the smell of dewy grass on a happy Saturday morning in my backyard, honeysuckle blooming.

I think this one is green category and it's not enough floral or fruity for me. I smell only green notes in it.
Nice name, but the perfume isn't like a butterfly (neither like a flower). I expected more.

one thing about b&b products, they do go fast. i had the cologne of this and loved it. very honeysuckle on me, which i love. a fresh scent, but of course needed to be reapplied a couple of times throughout the day.

I liked this the first time I sniffed it. I only smelled honeysuckle. I got a large candle of this and several people other than just myself thought this smelled like kerosene. I returned it. I'm not sure if the candle wrecked it for me or not. I can take it or leave it I guess. I haven't smelled anyone wear this and I have no desire to try it on myself since "the incident". I think if ever I want a honeysuckle scent though, I'll go elsewhere!

Smells more like honeysuckle then their honeysuckle perfume! I love it, i see a lot of people don't, but it's a wonderful scent to wear on a hot summer day or a warm spring day, it fits the mood. It is very sweet, but for me it wasn't too sweet. As for smelling like mold? No way! It just smells like straight up honeysuckle to me, even though there is no honey suckle on the list of fragrances. lol!

I didn't like this one. It was too sweet and floral for me. It made my nose burn, on the upside, it was long-lasting even through washing my hands and arm.

I like the opening notes on this one but find it a little strong for my taste when it settles down. If you like a stronger floral with the banana note mentioned in other reviews, I would recommend you give it a try. And spray lightly. Within these boundaries, it is not a bad scent. Gorgeous packaging. However, I prefer Night Blooming Jasmine, in BBW's Classic collection (available at BBW online) which I think is the best green floral by BBW. A mix of lilac and jasmine, its the one I buy most from them.

Update: Now that spring is sort of here, I tried this one again and have found the trick to really enjoying it - just one or two sprays and the lovely notes seem to softly breeze up as I move about. Overspray, and its too much. The other option is to just use the lotion, its one of BBW's long lasting ones.

I think that Butterfly FLower might smell good on others but for me it wasn't anything special. I like that the scent isn't overwhelmingly sweet its pretty clean but I don't like it that much.

spraying this is like a blast of fresh flowers. reminds me of summer, and i love to wear it while laying outside in the sun. unfortunately, i've found that a lot more women fall in love with this than men. most people have a love/hate relationship with it.

It's like a rose and a honeysuckle had a baby...I LOVE IT!!! It's such a beautiful refreshing scent...very floral...not too much musk which I'm glad the musk isn't overpowering...it would take away from it all.

I love Mimosa anything !"You can smell the mimosa , its just like our mimosa tree in the back yard
a rich buttercup smell that I love , love , love a bit flowery , its subtil to me , my skin is dry so it absorbs fast , but the lotion makes my skin very soft and fragrant smelling , when mixed togteher with the EDT it makes me feel pretty like a woman should smell .
They are packaged so pretty,this scent is a favorite of mine .

It is so unique and does have a luxurious allure to it .

I missed the tea and banana in the opening of BBW Butterfly Flower. I mainly experienced a heavy floral with a little musk. I can enjoy a heavier floral on occasion but this fragrance borders on cloying. Butterfly Flower wants to be a great scent, but the overkill on the ingredients make it impossible. I am sadly disappointed with this fragrance. I rate it 2 out of 10.

Too flowery for me but it's a unique smell. It wakes me up when i feel down. It's like laying on field of flowers.

DISGUSTING. I don't understand why so many people like this stench! It smells like wet sour mold- or I guess to me or maybe my bottle was off. It is a disaster!! I'm sorry but I can't identify any pleasant notes because of such an overpowering moldy smell!

Got this buy 2 get 1 free so I chose this and twilight woods and ps i love you and I like them all but this is really fresh and flowery smells like fresh dandelions or something I like it and it lasts and the bottle and packaging is sooooo frickin pretty I love butterflies!

Fantastic! I absolutely love this. Everyone at work got a small bottle for christmas before I arrived on this ward and after finding out what it is, I bought a huge bottle. It smells like real honeysuckle and opens up such vivid childhood memories. I hope this scent stays around for a while. It has really captured me, thank you.

Fresh green bananas and Honeysuckle. Really liked the lotion after using some of the girl's from work and couldn't wait to try the Edt. Really adore that scent of a real banana but don't think I can tolerate the composition of the fragrance as a whole. Guess, the lotion will have to do. It's nice but I'll have to get my banana fix elsewhere.

Aredore's description of the banana note in this is spot on! However, while she doesn't like it, I do. In fact, very much! This scent starts out with the aforementioned green banana and dries to a syringa scent that is very similar to the one found in Annick Goutal's Eau de Camille. Very fresh, green and lush. Also bright and sparkly. I think I prefer it during the Winter. Very pretty. Good job, Bath & Body Works! PS: fiancee dislikes both this one and Goutal's Camille. So does mom. Oh, well, what do they know, lol.

This scent smells fresh and clean, like you just got out of the shower. A It's not too sweet or too strong and my husband always likes it on me.

I think this is a beautiful and light scent. It smells very similar to Wild Honeysuckle from B&BW, but I get a sense of a more complex scent. The drydown is a bit sour in my opinion, but I still really enjoy it.

The negative reviews surprise me on this one, but I'll just chalk it up to individual chemistry and taste. I'm not much of a floral lover, not by any stretch, but this one grabbed me. An opening blast of Honeysuckle and Hyacinth faded into watery clear notes that dried towards the mimosa, orchids and tangerine. As much as I don't care for fruity florals, this one is gorgeous. Light and sheer while still having lasting power, I'm liking it a lot. Perhaps cooler weather will see it on the shelf but at 75 degrees and up these days, this is working very well for me.

Tried this in the store today. My friend got a very vivid memory of scented crayons from childhood. I got BANANA. But not banana like the candied banana you would expect. It smelled *very specifically* of banana peel and the little stringy bits that come off the fruit whenever your peel a fresh one.

It was sort of like playing "apples to apples" with a perfume sample.

I was not impressed.

Too much sweetness and flowers, it is overpowering to my nose. I find it tries too hard to be overly floral. It reminds me of a previous BBW scent, Enchanted Orchid. Really nothing new for BBW. Thumbs down.

Butterfly flower was an incredibly realistic flower scent to my nose. Truly, it smelled like a certain waxy orange flower whose name is escaping me at the moment. One sniff and I could see this flower in a sunlit garden, swaying gently in the breeze. Most floral perfumes smell like. . . well, a perfumey interpretation of a flower, but this one really captured the flower-sniffing experience very well. The scent overall is not quite my taste, but I was impressed nonetheless. If you're seeking a new floral for Spring, give this one a try!

My friend stopped by yesterday and she smelled divine! I immediately asked her what she was wearing and to my surprise she said it was a Butterfly flower from BBW.Not bad!!!It is both fresh and sweet and heady.I can smell banana, magnolia, tangerine juice - but altogether it reminded me of a sweet pea from my garden, so if you like sweet pea flowers, you`d probably like this one.For some reason it emits the aura of a happy woman - that`s how feminine it is.

Ahh- it looks like the new "it" note is banana. I do have to admit, I like "Butterfly Flower's" banana much more than the ovverripe, overpowering banana I get from "Ed Hardy". However, I was a little bit dissapointed- with a name like "Butterfly Flower" I was expecting something much more... you know... floral. However, after drydown, the fruity sweet seems to subside somewhat, and a more distinctly floral scent emerges. At first spray, this is OK- after 30 minutes or so, it is a real keeper!

Butterfly Flower, Bath & Body Works newest release, is indeed a beautiful fragrance smelling of flowers and sunshine in a summer garden and bright butterflies flitting. The scent opens
with a citrusy fruit tea note, soon giving way to a heady rush of syringa, a gorgeous Asian flower, supported by
mimosa and orchid. I do not detect the surprise notes of banana and coconut, but the perfume is remniscent of L'Artisan Parfumeurs Le Chasses des Papillons in imagery and fragrance at a fraction of cost!
A very nice new scent to try for spring and summer wear! Thumbs up for Butterfly Flower!!
