The new scent profile features notes of golden nectar, marigold petals and sandalwood, which were each chosen for their ability to create a sweet, warm aromatic profile. The fragrance is inspired by the magical nature of golden hour just after sunrise and just before sunset, which is both warm, reddish and golden in color. Bath & Body Works Gingham Glow is the brand's fifth addition to its Gingham fragrance collection, which it first launched in 2019. The range, including Gingham Glow, now consists of Gingham, Gingham Gorgeous, Gingham Fresh, Gingham [Vibrant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feetures-unveiled) and Gingham Legend. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 26% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Personalized Fragrance Profiles:** Customization opportunities are rising as consumers seek unique scent experiences that resonate with personal moments like golden hour. - **Multisensory Home Scents:** Innovations in home fragrances are leaning towards evocative, narrative-driven scents that enhance ambiance and personal memories. - **Emotion-driven Marketing:** Brands are increasingly tapping into emotional connections with product releases that evoke specific times of day or natural phenomena. ### Who This Affects Most - **Personal Care:** The personal care industry is innovating with fragrance products that blend traditional and contemporary scent notes for a warm, inviting profile. - **Home Fragrance:** Home fragrance market trends are moving towards complex, story-telling aromas that enhance the living space with emotional depth. - **Luxury Goods:** Luxury brands are integrating more personalized, emotive scent options to create upscale, bespoke fragrance experiences for discerning consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Soft Magnetic Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/afterglow-by-phlur.md) - [Blush-Inspired Perfumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-addict-glow.md) - [Warmth-Inducing Floral Perfumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-kiss.md) - [Sensual Floral Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coach-gold-parfum.md) - [Fragrance-Forward Bodycare](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragrance-forward-bodycare.md) - [Mini Dupe Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bath-body-works-summer-2026.md) - [Vibrantly Reimagined Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daisy-glow-limited-edition.md) - [Layerable Fragrance Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bath-body-works-blend-bar.md) - [Opulent Summery Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunkissed-goddess.md)
