(I am reviewing the lotion.) I love this scent…the honeysuckle is in full bloom, and this flower isn’t shy. Every time I put the lotion on, people would walk by and ask what perfume I was wearing.

I seriously love this fragrance. I actually found it by accident. I went into B&BW to get some lavender pillow spray and they had their semi annual sale going on. I found the EDT of Wild Honeysuckle. A few days prior me and my mother were on a walk around our neighborhood and kept passing by these gorgeous smelling flowers. My mother thought they were honeysuckles and I guess she’s right because this fragrance replicates that perfectly. I love wearing this because it gives the same feeling of walking by wild flowers on a sunny day. Oddly the word that comes to mind to describe the vibe of this fragrance is optimistic. Why can’t B&BW do more like this?

I just recently acquired a mini EDT of this perfume from i’m guessing 2007? I used to not really care much for this scent, and I still now can see why I felt that way (but this review is positive I promise)
This fragrance has a lot of jasmine in it, and I think jasmine is something that you either hate or love. Possibly you could tolerate it, but that doesn’t mean you’re a fan right? Well, bath and body works did something sexy here. They made this fragrance smell very floral and slightly indolic with the jasmine and honey. It’s quite intoxicating, and perfect for all weather conditions in my opinion. Will jasmine and honeysuckle ever be my most loved floral combo? Probably not. Do I feel this scent is sexy and alluring? Yes!

Smells like sampaguita flower. I don’t like it but my brother does.

At initial whiff I knew this was something I would find myself wearing. I’ve never smelled a honeysuckle before but I just want to say that this is a very beautiful floral scent. Not sweet, but cold and fresh. Reminds me of white flowers. This is a very clean, cold smell and it reminds me of small flowers after a medium rain in a green field with small water droplets on their petals. Reminds me of a green meadow and tiny tiny flowers everywhere just after a rain and you’re walking through and the air is crisp and cold. Not something I would wear on a warm day, in my opinion, as it has the tendency to get heady (in my opinion anyway, as I am very picky with scents and can easily get dizzy with strong green scents that remind me of cheap Bench body sprays). I would only wear this when I know it is going to be cold outside or in an air-conditioned environment. I also get compliments with these, from men and women alike. Overall a very likeable scent, I don’t think many would object to this.
blizzlord – :
I have the recent body spray and it’s just like I remember it from 20+ years ago. They should keep this around. It actually has staying power and smells beautiful. A happy, sit on the deck, umbrella-drink-in-hand kind of scent. A little sexy, too.
IgorC – :
I get no other note other than the Honeysuckle, and that is just fine and dandy with me! I adore Honeysuckle, and this is the only Honeysuckle based fragrance that doesn’t get buried by other notes on my skin. BTW- you can buy it online (the body mist,lotions,& bath gel) @ Bath & Bodyworks for a limited time under their retired fragrances line.
popazermusht – :
I own this one in the mist form and it’s so beautiful. It’s sweet, floral and very fresh. I don’t detect any fruity-ness, but what I do get is a burst of aquatic-ness. Maybe it’s the weather here (sunny and cool) or maybe it’s my skin, but I smell distinct water notes, and that’s the reason I love it so much. At first spritz it smelled extremely alcohol-like and pungent, but maybe that’s because it’s in the mist form. However, about 10 seconds later it’s this gorgeous crisp, sweet and watery fragrance. For a body mist the longevity is quite decent – about 4 hours on warm skin. The only thing I wish were better was sillage. In the mist it is non-existent. It sticks to the skin, so unless I bury my nose into the wrist I simply cannot smell it. But when I do, it always, always leaves me feeling soooo good :). Even on the drydown, which is slightly sweet and powdery. All in all a gorgeous scent, alas the sillage though!
mitka – :
I just repurchased (on ebay) an old bottle of original formula, after years of being out. It is one of the most complimented perfumes I’ve ever worn. It is not at all my style (as it is a floral and I gravitate to spice and amber scents), but it must just mesh with my chemistry in a good way, because it does smell good on me, and strangers agree. It smells exactly as I remember it, and I am glad to have it back in my wardrobe.
Mariya – :
Wonderful true honeysuckle smell. Like the real thing. Light honeysuckle floral. a true note with nothing mixed in, I love it, Draws compliments. reminds me a little of classic Tommy girl ( minus the mint) Very similar to the old pink BBW classic Honeysuckle.
Ploog – :
Uplifting and feminine. This was my signature scent for almost 10 years. First I picked up the fragrance mist, as it reminded me of real honeysuckle blooming in June in my last home in the humid Mid-Atlantic. To replace it, I got the EDT, which has good lasting power on me with one spritz. I was surprised to see on a box somewhere that there were notes of cassia, honeydew, jasmine, and something else. I really find that the combination is a near-perfect representation of honeysuckle alone. It’s definitely appropriate for a younger woman to smell fruity-floral without smelling cheap, but as I get older I may ask for others’ opinions on whether I can keep wearing it. I certainly hope to…every time I open the bottle I think, mmm I could smell this all day!
ArriftBeelt – :
This may be my favourite perfume ever! I think the best way to describe it is I often go jogging down my street early in the morning when everything is fresh and dewy and there’s been a little rain overnight and the street is lined with flowers, a lot of jasmine around and because of this perfume I think there must be honeysuckle around too because when I’m out there the scent in the air, with all these things combined, smells just like this perfume! But there’s more, I remember the first time I wore this I had been at work for a few hours and I started to smell something really nice, it smelt like someone was making a chocolate cake somewhere or a hot chocolate drink, it was driving me crazy because I couldn’t figure out where this smell was coming from, I was about to ask someone, which I’m glad I didn’t because I would have sounded pretty silly, because all of a sudden I realised it was me! That I was getting wafts of the perfume from my wrists so after a few hours it dried down to this really delicious chocolate scent, that’s the best way I know how to describe it, like someone was baking a chocolate cake, I wouldn’t normally buy a chocolate scented perfume but this was just so warm and comforting and delicious, it’s such a shame it’s been discontinued.
FARVEKADEALEM – :
I love this! My favorite. Has anyone else ever noticed that this can smell a tiny bit like clinique happy? I suppose it depends if happy plays well with your skin. For so many, it doesn’t. But on me, it turns very soft and sweet, and smells a little like wild honeysuckle.
mjq531Diobtetty – :
I don’t know what it is, but this has an ingredient in that almost immediately goes sour on me 🙁 its also in L’eau d’Issey, Maison Margiela Replica Beach Walk, Etoile de Rem, Laura Mercier Fresh Fig and a few other things I’ve tried – they smell great in the bottle and then smell like sour skin on me. I love honeysuckle so this was extra disappointing.
REG96 – :
Whenever spring starts to come around, or in this case, winter is hanging around too long, I always start craving this bright, fresh scent. Since it has been disc’d, I’ve usually been able to find a few bottles at the Semi-Annual sale or at the BBW outlet, but this year, I didn’t have luck. I was able to stock up on a few shower gels and lotions, but they didn’t have a splash in sight. I did find one on Amazon at least. 🙂 I’m really disappointed that BBW discontinues beautiful scents like this, Exotic Coconut, Butterfly Flower and Vanilla Noir to come out with loud, fruity, sweet scents with “cutesy” names that will just be discontinued in a few months. I hope that in the future they develop another scent similar to Wild Honeysuckle!
PanikA – :
This smells just like wild honeysuckles you smell while driving on the highways in south Jersey. One of my favorite smells of great memories of springs and summers. It’s rather hard to find now and the Butterfly Gardens they say is the same thing smells like phlox and not honeysuckle. It can be strong and overwhelming sometimes. I honestly can’t believe there’s all these other notes in it. It just smells like honeysuckle to me.
kiriesh8686 – :
It’s a strong floral, for sure, but surprisingly nice smelling despite being sort of a one-note fragrance. I really smell nothing but flowers when I wear this! No musk, no sweet candy, no fruit, just floral (maybe some honey actually). But it’s really not a bad thing! It’s really feminine and pretty for sure. Sort of sophisticated, but in a flirty way. I still have half a bottle of the body spray and I save it for days when I feel really girly and flirty!
tsog – :
I have smelled this a long time ago, but I couldn’t remember the scent until I received a bottle recently. I do not find it fruity, but it is a honeyed tuberose on my skin. It’s one of the few Bath and Body Works offerings left that isn’t super sweet or fruity.
Thank you Nicole1978 for the bottle. 😀
AmbupSpapep – :
This scent smells AMAZING layered with Coty Vanilla Musc. I swear it smells very similar to Givenchy Organza Indecence (one of my favorite scents ever!)I just discovered this the other morning because I spritzed some vanilla musc on myself and I realized, too late, that I wasn’t in the “mood” for so much musc; so I spritzed some of the bbw honeysuckle on as well and I was over-joyed to find that the smell was delicious! and it really reminded me of Givenchy Indecence. Not as deep and complex as Indecence of course, but very similar. It also smells yummy by itself as well 🙂
vadva61 – :
I looooooooooooooooove this perfume!! This was my signature scent on senior high!! Fresh and flowery–but not too flowery. Surprisingly lasts long on me. I didn’t get bored of this perfume like I usually did on other perfumes. But sadly this perfume got taken by the security guard on the airport and I didnt get the chance to buy it again :((
Bolodar123 – :
Why are you discontinued, why?! Le sigh. I’m not big on florals normally, but I love this. It definitely smells like flowers, but in a light, sweet way, without the cloying pollen-like aspect that usually bugs me. It has a natural honey-sweetness, like nectar, and it actually has a surprising warmth to it, it must be a hint of musk or vanilla or something. Whatever that is, it just melts into my skin and smells sweet, like a garden in summer, it is AMAZING. It’s specifically the EDT that does this too, the lotions are a little more green/fresh, with a little bit of that sneezy pollen quality.
It’s also probably worth noting, Wild Honeysuckle is my guy’s favorite too, and he can be SUPER picky. Everything’s always “too perfumey,” but he loves this one because reminds him of the honeysuckle flowers outside his house when he was little. I don’t know what the real ones smell like, but it’s gotta be pretty spot on to have gotten that reaction.
mishagalant – :
It’s been about 3 years since I last used up my last bottle of this, but I still remember it liked I spritzed it on this morning.
The first few spritzes were always slightly intolerable to me. Smelled so alcoholy and an onslaught of floral smell. Yes, SMELL, not scent. If I forgot to stop after the first couple spritzes, I would immediately start to sneeze. But after about 20 minutes, I remember the smell would finally calm down and turned into this amazing loveable scent of honeysuckle. I feel so wistful just thinking about the loveliness of it… I miss it. If I could find a parfum that was just as sweet as Bath and Body Works but without all the alcohol in it, I’d buy it immediately. ;[
rakiyan – :
Wild Honeysuckle is my all-time favorite floral fragrance, hands down. Its simplicity is what completely and utterly draws me in. Honeysuckle is a chameleon on how it can make people feel. It can be a comfort scent, it can be a fresh/clean scent, it can be a feminine scent, it can be a nostalgic scent, and it can be a romantic scent. For that, honeysuckle is one of the best scents ever, and when a manufactured fragrance can pick up on that, then hats off!
Whenever I wear this, I feel all of the things I described above. It’s one of the best fragrances that Bath & Body Works has ever released, and I wish that it was readily available in stores again … And I wish I didn’t have to rely on ebay to find the Eau de Toilette again.
ares9 – :
Like all BandBWorks fragrances, it smells exactly like what it says it is: Honeysuckle! It’s a very nice floral scent, but I wouldn’t want to walk around all day smelling exactly like a honeysuckle bush…it would appeal to me much more if I could pick up on some of the other notes, but I can’t. However, I definitely recommend this fragrance in the soap or candle version or as a pretty hand lotion.
essame – :
I like this one for a summer/spring evening fragrance or a spray or two for daytime. I smell loads of honeysuckle and jasmine, and the scent sticks around on my arm even after a shower. Good staying power. I get some compliments on it, but the other night, a waitress went nuts to find out what it was.
sanek7 – :
I really like this sent I’m glad they remade it. It was originaly called Honeysuckle and its part of the classic line. Anywhoo it reminds me of a cleaner fresher version of Jennifer Lopez’s Glow. I usually layer the two perfumes to balance out the weird scent that is in Glow (see my review for Glow for more info). Wild honeysuckle sent is very floral and not to sweet. It doesn’t smell exactly like smelling a flower in your garden but similar.
update: startin june 13th 2012 is the semi annual sale!!!!!!!! and they r bringin bk recently discontinued sents!!!!!!! Like honeysuckle, butterfly flower, rainkissed leaves, enchanted orchid; cucumber melon, dancing waters and mandarin mango. But the bad thing is that one of the reps said that they r not gettin the body spay. But online i have seen the body spray for rainkissed leaves in a body spray!!! so who knws :>
lada0774 – :
I have the spray and I really like it. But I feel it is too strong a floral for spring/summer. I recommend it for fall/winter instead.
NityBiort36 – :
I am not a floral person in the least, but I must say this is the best honeysuckle scent ever. Bursting, bright, ripe, fresh and alluring.It is so natural smelling and not synthetic at all. Nor is it overly sweet.
I wore this for a whole summer once and everywhere I went people told me I smelled good. Even bees followed me everywhere! (the only con) Plus, this has a sentimental value for me, as my mother told me it smelled like her first perfume ever,when she was a young girl. She looked so nostalgic as she smelled my wrist..her eyes glistening. I have decided to buy her a bottle for Christmas.
nofizunh – :
Body spray review. This is a lovely “single note” fragrance. I know it has a lot of other things listed in the notes, but I can’t smell them. Then again I also have the body spray. Maybe the perfume is different. I use about 6 sprays and it lasts about 4 hours. About average for a body spray. I like this one for the spring and summer.
yurii090584 – :
Honestly I find this wayyy too light. Smells a bit like grass.
fak872bedyWelty – :
I LIKE IT BECAUSE ITS FRESH . I’M USEING THE BODY LOTION OF THE WILD HONEYSUCKLE, AND ITS GREAT. THE SMELL LAST MORE.
palinka – :
i actually love this. honeysuckle is one of my favorite scents and i think bbw does it up right. pure honeysuckle sharp and sweet, then dries down to light and flowery. love it for spring.
зпн – :
To me, it is just way toooo sweet smelling! I liked it when I was younger, but I gave away all my Wild Honeysuckle stuff because I did not like it anymore.
sokol89 – :
I bought this a few years ago because I had just started dating my fellow and he mentioned honeysuckle as the only floral smell he could stand. He loved this! Still does. I don’t care for it too much.
I never had a very refined nose for perfumes, so it didn’t occur to me that this was anything but a one note fragrance. I figured I just wasn’t a fan of honeysuckle. Now, smelling it again with more insight, I realize that the thing I dislike about it is that it ISN’T just honeysuckle. The rose and the freesia REALLY over power this for me…I’m reminded of bathroom spray.
istomin4813 – :
I really love the initial spray of this fragrance on my skin- it’s a really pretty, summery, feminine blast of honeysuckle, but within a few minutes, it turns to this synthetic perfume base, which is why I’ve never purchased it. I keep sampling it occasionally to enjoy the initial whiff .
Jackie89 – :
When I first sniffed it, I thought: ehm, no. While my mom was going crazy about how she loved it and wanted to buy it. Then at my second try today, actually, I was pleasantly surprised! There is still a bit too much citrus for me(a problem my skin creates with many perfumes), but there is also something comforting and familiar. Reminds me somehow a bit of elizabeth ardens 5th avenue, which I adore. A pity that the staying power isn’t so great…
ps: special thanks to sky76sky for letting me try this one!

Beautiful and fressshhhh! ‘Love it! Wild honeysuckle,Juniper Breeze and Cherry Blossom are the top 3 Freshest scents of BBW in my opinion.
Alachliberty – :
This was a very light and refreshing smel from BBW! After time, like most of their perfumes it bored me.
Gnfoagumqp – :
I have a Japanese honeysuckle bush in front of my house and kept telling my husband “they need to make a perfume that smells like that.” So my search began.
This was the 1st scent I tried. It’s got a synthetic note that smells a little cheap but overall it is a pretty honeysuckle-like scent.
After wearing it several times, I have found that it is too sweet for me and is much stronger than the honeysuckle I’m looking for. I sometimes layer it with more somber frags like Trouble. That combination smells divine. The honesuckle cuts the heavy lemon and gives it the floral sweet it needs to be well rounded.
I would say this frag is not top quality but casually wearable.
La_Sergio – :
This frag smells pretty but sensous.Top notes last long and stays on clothes and linen too.
I have the lotion and EDT.In the morning when i feel bright and perky I spray this to make my good mood last all day. At night when I feel romantic I use the lotion.
butKneeft – :
Very nice. A very pretty honeysuckle scent. The honeysuckle really shows in this perfume. Thanks!!
deniska24 – :
Wow- how I love Honeysuckle! This is a really good honeysuckle, but it has very little persistence. I couldn’t believe the note listing- like the previous reviewer said, all I get is honeysuckle. The scent in this EDT is a much cleaner honeysuckle than any of BBW’s lotions/bodywashes, etc. from this line.
D34ima – :
One of the prettiest honeysuckle scents out there. It looks like such a complicated fragrance on paper, but I get no fruits, no other flowers–just pure, sweet honeysuckle from this one. Linear and single-note, but if you want honeysuckle, you can’t really do better than this one. This is a great scent for young women and for warmer weather.
