COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This year Bath & Body Works is making sure roses aren’t just for bouquets. The brand just launched new rose-focused fragrances and is giving a refresh to consumer favorites!
While this classic ingredient has been used in perfumery for centuries, rose is now experiencing a modern-day renaissance with fragrance consumers looking for innovative, unexpected and luxurious scents with this timeless note at the center.
To meet that demand, Bath & Body Works is debuting its new Nocturnal Rose, a genderless fragrance which offers a unique take on the classic floral. It’s a darker, masculine and mysterious scent with notes of black pepper, wild rose and cedarwood.
Bath & Body Works experts partnered with Givaudan fragrance house and their vice president perfumer Stephen Nilsen to develop this innovative take on rose.
“Nocturnal Rose is a contemporary reimagining of a timeless flower—the black rose reborn in modern opulence,” said Nilsen. “The fragrance is inspired by the scent of Rose de Mai, a rare rose that is harvested from the fields of Grasse, intertwined with the warmth of cedarwood and the smooth allure of golden tobacco. Nocturnal Rose embodies modern luxury with a quiet and irresistible intensity.”
In addition to Nocturnal Rose, the brand is bringing back fan-favorite fragrances including:
- Covered in Roses: Indulge in a luscious blend of fresh blooms and juicy fruit, finished with sweet gourmand notes. This alluring fragrance is launching for the first time in a 3-wick candle, laundry detergent and fragrance booster—perfect for filling your space with romantic vibes.
- Rose: Rediscover a classic. The brand’s signature rose scent is back with a bold new look and a vibrant, modern twist on the beloved floral—making it feel as fresh as a bouquet just delivered to your door.
- “Inspire Love” Rose & Vanilla: Experience a delicate harmony where creamy vanilla perfectly balances with soft rose petals, creating a scent that’s light, dreamy and effortlessly romantic.
- Heirloom Rose: Sourced from Bath & Body Works’ aromatherapy collection, this refined floral musk is crafted for true rose lovers who appreciate timeless elegance in every spritz.
“We’ve reimagined rose with a modern edge, for a timeless yet effortlessly chic experience,” said Mary Testa-Gough, associate vice president of product and fragrance development at Bath Body Works. “Each fragrance is meticulously crafted using the highest quality ingredients and techniques to deliver a scent that feels elevated, indulgent and irresistible.”
Adding to the style, the packaging of these fragrances is inspired by the latest fashion and design trends, with a moody color palette that brings a touch of drama to the daily routine.
The rose-forward fragrances will be available in a variety of forms, including fine fragrance mists, eau de parfum, single and 3-wick candles, and an assortment of body care products such as body cream, body lotion and body wash. All body care items are dermatologist-approved* in a luxurious formula made without parabens and sulfates.
