If you are a sophisticate like me, then you probably spend your Monday nights in front of the tv. I counted on Monday nights and between actually watching a show and DVR'ing a show, I am up to 8.5 hours of tv I watch and/or record. It is an even 9 hours if Pawn Stars is 2 new episodes.
Don't ask me why, but The Bachelor is given top billing as the show I watch live above all others. While watching The Most Dramatic Bachelor Episode Ever, my 2 hours of tv are inundated with commercials from Bath and Body Works advertising their new scent "Carried Away." And yes, I was carried away by their marketing ploy. Into the Bath and Body Works store I went to give Carried Away a try. I am such an easy target.
Carried Away Shower Gel
$10.50 at Bath and Body Works To Buy
However this time I was smarter than here and here and started with a small sample size for $5 before deciding if I could commit to a full size bottle.
I will tell you this. I like it. I am not ready to commit to really liking or love just yet but willing to keep trying. The ingredients are all my typical faves: raspberries and whipped vanilla. A hint of white jasmine rounds out the profile. The scent is a little sweet and I think that is what is holding me back.
Or it could be that B&BW has billed Carried Away as reminiscent of the way love sweeps you off your feet. Isn't that is taking it too far for shower gel? No Bath and Body Works, I think you are getting carried away.
So I will like Carried Away but I am not quite swept off my feet just yet. Stay tuned.
CC Tip: Start with a small travel size of Bath and Body Works scents before stocking up on a new scent. It saves you from sinking money into a scent you may end up disliking.
