Scent "Notes" The Word SPECULATION

Scent “Notes”: 

Contrary to a comment made on Reddit - I don’t speculate about anything.


If you see the word Possible (like you see and hear on other social sites that share info) regarding a scent, a bring back, a package refresh for a return, sales, and newness —- it’s added because of those who for whatever reason like to point out something that didn’t come out the second they looked for it and complain. A lot. 

For example: If a sale is posted on paper in black and white as happening on a certain day— and it’s shared - and it gets moved or cancelled ๐Ÿ˜ฑ the misery about it not happening is beyond crazy. I get messages...and so do others.  Know that I always have proof.

Many times, it's shipping changes (bad weather here sometimes slows delivery of items) or changes in releases for many of reasons (late production, daily sales, so many things) can cause things to change. 

Products get cancelled. It happens. Names get changed. It doesn’t mean it never existed. For example, the Men's Body Care Victory became Adrenaline.  You would only know one name, because it was mentioned many months before it came out, and was shown on the shipping boxes as such when it arrived later for floor set.  

What started out as a chat site connected to Bath and Body Works in what seems like a hundred years ago now, (we old fans know all about that, right?)  morphed into a social media tornado of information.  With social pages growing like weeds, each spreading the seeds from something that was removed years ago because of continuous arguing.  

People have been arguing about this brand for decades.  ha ha ๐Ÿ˜†

Let me just say, those who know me know I’m not sitting here making up names or speculating about anything. If only those who talk about me ever got to know me — how great that would be.  I am funny and laugh and joke a lot.  I have a love for a brand and a devotion to a project started a very long time ago that I take seriously.  And I protect it with my not so laughing side. ๐Ÿ˜

Think about it, we have a great opportunity around us with having so much information to help dictate our purchasing power for a love of fragrance that we didn't have a decade or so ago.  With an incredible amount of source information available we all have learned over the years some great details about the products we buy; the collection names, the ways they are marketed, the details of the brand itself revealed quarterly, the reasons they are created and the parfumiers who are behind the scenes creating all of these incredible fragrances that become our own daily signatures.  

I don't speculate. ๐Ÿ’™


PS.

When there are problems I face, I do share those too so no one needs to worry if anyone is saying or doing anything to prohibit the flow of happiness.

I have changed a few things up for a few reasons, and I am archiving those things just not posting for the critiques.

And when it comes to the collaborations (my kryptonite) we will see this year, so far, I know of four, and I am not the one sharing / or confirming / or denying. See, funny ๐Ÿ˜œ


PS.

I suggest anyone who loves this brand and wants the exact info shared on webcasts, to listen to the webcast as it shared, and not to take snippets shared about the changes out of the context in which they were shared.
