Body Works and LOVED it, but I blew my paycheck on lotions, body splash, and candles instead.\u00a0 (The important things in life.)\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t have any cute clothes to show for all my hard work, but I sure smelled good!<\/p>\n<p>I worked at Bath &amp; Body Works for three years and kept our college apartment stocked with yummy candles and lotions.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, Christmastime at B&amp;BW is NUTS and they needed stock boys to help with all the merchandise, so I convinced BRAD to work there for Christmas!\u00a0 It&#8217;s still funny to me to think that Brad worked at B&amp;BW, but so did his best friend, Michael.\u00a0 I think they had WAY too much fun being stock boys!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I still have a love for all things Bath &amp; Body Works!\u00a0 I ran in there last week and discovered a new &#8220;flavor&#8221; that I&#8217;m IN LOVE WITH!\u00a0 The name sounds like a trashy romance novel, but I love the scent.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-005.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3482\" title=\"bath and body works dark kiss 005\" src=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"432\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-005.jpg 480w, http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-005-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/><\/a>I know that scents and perfumes are <strong>so personal<\/strong> and some of you will HATE this (like my father!) but some of you will love it.\u00a0 I&#8217;m talking to those people.\u00a0 :)<\/p>\n<p>I have always loved Angel, by Thierry Mugler.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/angel.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3479\" title=\"angel\" src=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/angel.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/angel.jpg 200w, http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/angel-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/angel-90x90.jpg 90w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you love Angel, you&#8217;ll love Dark Kiss.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-003.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3483\" title=\"bath and body works dark kiss 003\" src=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-003.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-003.jpg 640w, http:\/\/therealhousewife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/bath-and-body-works-dark-kiss-003-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>An added bonus is that Dark Kiss is just a <em>wee bit<\/em> (a LOT) less expensive than Angel!\u00a0 They both have undertones of vanilla and powder with a little twang, and something that reminds me of my grandfather&#8217;s pipe.\u00a0 That sounds weird, but the scents just work so well together in Angel to produce a sweet, soft perfume.<\/p>\n<p>Dark Kiss has so many of the same scents.<\/p>\n<p>Right now at Bath &amp;
