Disclaimer - I am not a gourmand lover and do not enjoy the signature/typical sweet style of bath&bodyworks fragrances. My fragrance collection is centered around luxury fragrances and niche fragrances.
I enjoy challenging myself to find affordable fragrances that smell expensive where it would be unexpected so I spent months sniffing and sampling virtually everything at Bath&BodyWorks in preparation for this Semi Annual Sale. At this point, I've smelled 90% of the scents they currently carry locally and decided to blind-buy several scents that weren't locally available so that I could sift through it all and let you guys know what really smells high end/ luxurious. Most of the items I purchased this year are candles. Last year I focused on body mists (see video linked above) In my honest opinion, very few of mists and fragrances truly smell expensive except Rose, and that is the only one I personally still use. A few more scents that smell expensive leaning are mentioned in this video.
