"Maybe I received an old tube, but I can barely detect the scent at all. It works fine and is inoffensive, but it smells like bland, run-of-the-mill cream to me. However, the reviews are generally positive so you may have better luck. You can try it in stores when Sheer Freesia comes to the Semi-Annual Sale, which goes from June 12th to July 7th."

Great!
"One day I was checking out the BBW website for online sales (I have been a BBW customer for many many years, and gone through many scents), and I came across the Sheer Freesia at a great price. Although I had never smelled it, I bought 7 bottles (the price was so great I couldn't pass it up!!). Out of my purchase that day this was my favorite, and I really wish it wass carried in stores. The fragrance is pretty but not overpowering like many BBW, and when I was pregnant this is one of the few scents I not only could tolerate but still enjoyed. Great for people who are sensitive to strong smells! I also love wearing this to work or when I will be in crowded spots as I know while I smell nice I wont be bothering anyone else with my overly strong and perfumey scent. BBW, you should bring this back to the stores! Its not on a great sale right now but I will be buying more."
"I was looking for a new scent that was light and not too overpowering. After reading all of the reviews, I knew I had to give this one a try. I am so happy I did!!!! It is such a light, clean, floral scent. And it doesn't break out my skin, like many of the stronger newer scents do. I hope you keep this scent around for a long time!!!!"
"I am not a fan of floral scents (I detest them!) but for some reason I really dig Sheer Freesia. I was given a bottle of the body cream many years ago. I never would have picked it up for myself, but I'm glad I tried it instead of just returning it. Even though it has a floral name, it is more a fresh scent. It is light and lovely, unlike some of the newer scents (Paris Amour, Country Chic, Into the Wild, etc) that give me an immediate headache. If B&BW made more florals like Sheer Freesia instead of those other ones, I would be a fan. Actually that would be bad because then I'd have an even bigger collection than I already do!"

Freesia
"First used Freesia when my daughter gave it to me for my birthday 7 years ago and then it was just called Freesia and it was the color of blue. Then the Sheer Freesia came out and I have continued to buy the products. I quit wearing perfumes years ago and the Freesia doesn't affect my allergies. I was disappointed that they quit selling it in the stores. I like the new smells but don't like them after I wear them. I get lots of compliments when I wear Freesia. Freesia is one of the most popular flowers for arrangements because of its fragrance."

Please Bring it Back!!
"I have used Freesia long before "sheer" came out on the market. I love this product, it has a fresh, clean smell that is not overwhelming. I have suffered with asthma for years and am not able to wear many scents. This product has never let me down. How sad they do not cater a bit to long time users and continue to make scents that are not appealing to all ages. Please bring Freesia back to the stores or at least bring it back here so we can continue to enjoy!!!"

Diminished Fragrance
"I purchased Sheer Freesia online because it can no longer be purchased at the store but I find that the fragrance is not as strong as when I purchased it at the store which makes me believe that the product is old. There is barely a fragrance at all. I bought them online two different times and I received the same result."

Smells...Expensive :)
"But it doesn't cost nearly as much as high end perfume. :) My new favorite."
"This doesn't smell bad. It's actually "ok." Honestly, nothing will ever beat the original "Freesia." This smells great on my mom. If given to me, great. If not, no worries."

My favorite!
"I absolutely love this fragrance! I wish they would bring it back to stores. It's very light with a fresh scent. Great for any time of the year. Especially if you get the winter blues!"
"As a rule I'm not usually a floral fan (except for Wild Honeysuckle) but Sheer Freesia is changing how I look at floral fragrances. It's very light, feminine, and fresh; it's not overpowering and cloying like I expect of florals. You may enjoy this one if you prefer a hint of sheer, yet lingering, fragrance."

Exceptional Fragrance!
"Have been using this for years even when it used to be called just Freshia. The Sheer Freshia Body Cream is wonderful, especially after a hot shower. Have had people comment how great the scent is. Can't understand why this is available only online. I would think it would be a best seller. The fragrance is not too sweet, but enough to be fresh and clean. This is the best scent ever! Please don't ever let it go Bath and Body Works.....! But if you do I'll have to buy several cases!! And thank you for the great sale so I can stock up."

"This is definitely my favorite scent that Bath and Body works makes! Since so many others like it as well it is puzzling that it is only available online."
