Fashion trends often cycle back, and this is evident not just in clothing but also in beauty products.
The resurgence of Y2K style, influenced by artists like Addison Rae and Charli XCX, has also brought 90s bath and beauty products back into the limelight, with both new and nostalgic fans rediscovering their favorites. A prime example is Bath & Body Works’ iconic “Cucumber Melon” fragrance, which is available again for a limited time exclusively at BathandBodyWorks.com.
Originally launched in the 90s, Cucumber Melon products were staples at Bath & Body Works locations throughout North America, with families eagerly purchasing the memorable scent. The fragrance, characterized by fresh notes of cucumber, cantaloupe, honeydew, grapefruit, and “sheer woods” (think pine trees and grass), remains unforgettable.
