For the past few years, Bath and Body Works has brought out a line of candles and hand soaps in the Fresh Picked collection. This has been one of my favorite collections for the entire time that it has been released and I already possess candles and soaps from the previous years but I am already plotting out how many more I will buy this week. The line has been out for about a week now and I have already picked Fresh Picked Apple Blossoms and Pears hand soaps and have already bought four candles from the collection (I really recommend the Strawberry and First Bloom candles!) and I cannot wait for the beginning of spring to begin using the products! This year, in addition to the great hand soaps and home fragrance items, Bath and Body Works has expanded the line by offering a small line of body products in these fragrances. Last year, I would have killed for a Fresh Picked Strawberry body wash and this year my wish has come true and I have already indulged myself in purchasing several shower gels and lotions!
The line offers shower gels and matching body lotions, just the more simple products in the collection. When I first saw the bottles, I was taken aback by how huge they are, size-wise this collection is on par with the Philosophy products. I fell in love with the Strawberry and the First Bloom products as soon as I smelled them and I added them to my huge bag full of Fresh Picked products, this is my favorite launch so far from Bath and Body Works. These products and the general atmosphere of the store reminded me so much of when I started there in college and made me nostalgic for old scents and products. The products are available in the following five scents: Strawberry, Apple, First Bloom, Pear, and Tangerine. I like them all but Strawberry and First Bloom were the clear winners for me.

I loved all of the fragrances when I first smelled them and I was really tempted to buy both products in every single fragrance. The Strawberry scent is on the sweeter side and is the perfect sweet strawberry fragrance, I detect a slight hint of mango in the fragrance but it doesn't take away from the strawberry base. I love both the wash and lotion in this scent and I bought both of them the first night that I could. The other scent that I loved enough to purchase the first night was First Bloom, this is pretty peony fragrance that is perfect for the spring. I do wish that this came in a Fragrance Mist but I have to content myself to purchase it in every other form that I can. The Pear fragrance is quite nice also, it is crisp and simple pear fragrance. I liked it a lot but I decided that I didn't need it in the first round but I am considering picking it up another time if it is still in stock. This fragrance could be used be either gender and I bet that it will sell out quickly. Fresh Picked Apples is a Red Delicious apple scent, it is dead on to the scent of the fruit. I loved this scent but I did skip over it as I already have the exact scent from Philosophy and from Bath and Body Works several years back (American Grown collection), I will buy the lotions later on since I have so much more body wash than lotion in those fragrances, I certainly do not need the wash in this fragrance. Lastly, the Tangerine scent just didn't work on my skin. Citrus scents are not typically my cup of tea and this fragrance is no exception. It smells great in the bottle but turns out horrible on my skin, it sours and is just bad on me. So I will not be buying any of the products in the Tangerine scent.
This is my favorite collection so far and I don't want to know how much money I have spent on this collection so far this year. Between candles, soaps, and now body products, I have bought more items than I even have room. Fresh Picked is the perfect way to start spring and now I am beyond excited to start buying fresh pears and strawberries at my local farmer's market!
