Pretty much any beauty fan who grew up in the late ’90s and early 2000s has a soft spot for at least one Bath & Body Works fragrance. And for fans of Pink Chiffon — a fruity, floral scent comprised of sparkling red pear, jasmine petals, tiare flower, vanilla orchid, and the titular chiffon musk — the hunt for a replacement has been on since roughly 2012, when the retailer discontinued the scent.
Luckily, scent sleuths have discovered to Bodycology’s Sweet Love Fragrance Mist, saying the sparkling red pear, sweet strawberry, and warm musk body mist “smells just like” the beloved discontinued fragrance.
“If you are a lover of Pink Chiffon by Bath and Body Works… this is the EXACT match,” one reviewer shared. “Pink Chiffon was my high school fragrance… When I found out they discontinued it, I was SO upset. I went to the store one day and this bottle caught my eye. Nostalgia hit me.”
What makes this $5 body mist such a fan favorite — beyond the obvious scent similarities — is how wearable it is. The fragrance strikes that sweet (and slightly floral) balance without being overwhelming. One shopper with a self-proclaimed “VERY sensitive” nose confirmed that Sweet Love is light enough to layer, even with the matching body wash: “Even after using both the wash and spray together, it’s still a sweet floral light fragrance.”
While it leans on decadent fruity-floral notes like red pear and strawberry, shoppers say Sweet Love isn’t too sugary. A warm base of musk gives it a more grounded finish, making it an easy pick for daily wear. “Almost like roses and cotton candy,” one customer wrote, “but in the best way.”
The spring-time body fragrance’s formula is also free from parabens, phthalates, sulfates, and aluminum — so it’s a solid option for those avoiding harsher ingredients. Bonus: it’s vegan and cruelty-free, which one reviewer pointed out makes it “an awesome price in comparison to BBW body sprays and body washes.”
As another shopper summed it up, “I’d say it’s almost bang on! Will definitely be getting more once I run out!”
So, for those still mourning the loss of Pink Chiffon — or for anyone who’s feeling nostalgic for softer, sweet floral scents — why not give Bodycology’s $5 Sweet Love Fragrance Mist a shot?
