If your idea of spring comfort includes fresh bread, sunlit kitchens, and the simple pleasure of slowing down at home, Bath & Body Works has a new collection that feels tailor-made for the moment. The brand’s just-launched Rooted line takes inspiration from homemade rituals and earthy indulgences—bringing unexpected, cozy scents straight to store shelves.

At the center of the collection is a candle that’s already turning heads (and noses): a surprisingly realistic sourdough fragrance that captures the warmth of a freshly baked loaf. But that’s just the beginning. From garden-fresh notes to bakery-inspired favorites, these are the standout items from the Rooted collection that shoppers will want to get their hands on while they’re still available.

I’ve given up on getting my sourdough starter going, so I’m thrilled that I can now fill my house with the cozy smell of fresh-baked bread by simply lighting a match. The most-anticipated item from Bath & Body Works’ Rooted collection is this Homemade Sourdough 3-Wick Candle.

“The scent features notes of freshly baked sourdough, olive oil and whipped butter, designed to evoke the comfort and familiarity of homemade bread,” reads a press release. The candle will normally retail for $25 but is currently on sale for $12.

Last year, Bath & Body Works dropped a new scent called Off the Vine, which was widely cited as a dupe for Maison Margiela’s pricey Replica From the Garden tomato scent.

Now, the retailer has brought this popular scent back in the form of a Fine Fragrance Mist ($18), Ultimate Hydration Body Cream ($18), Body Wash ($16), and Body Lotion ($16). Fragrance notes are “heirloom tomato, garden geranium, and Mediterranean moss.”
