Bath & Body Works is a favorite destination for a variety of body care and [home fragrance products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-candle-collection), including seasonal products like Christmas bath bombs.

For Christmastime this year, the retail chain is launching an all-new collection of [festive bath bombs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-bath-bombs) that offer a new way for consumers to enjoy [bestselling fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bath-body-works-fall-2025) like Winter Candy Apple, Vanilla Bean Noel and Twisted Peppermint. Beyond the simple fragrances that each product name describes, there are deeper scent notes to discover. For instance, Twisted Peppermint also has hints of raspberry, jasmine, candy floss and even a bit of musk.

What's most unique about these fizzing Christmas bath bombs is that they're packaged like giant pieces of peppermint candies that are protected by colorful, transparent wrappers.
