Summer might still be in full swing, but some (including me) are already gearing up for fall. I don’t know about you, but I’ve started to see some fall-themed TikToks on my FYP, and some clothing stores are quietly rolling out their new collections for the future cozy weather. But it’s not just excitement for fall that is beginning to resurge โ it’s excitement for Halloween. Whether it’s because you get to dress up in cool, creative costumes or you get a thrill from the scary stuff, spooky season is a beloved time of year for so many people around the world.
Brands also get a kick out of Halloween because it’s a chance to experiment with brand identity and push creative boundaries a bit. There’s also some room for fun collaborations, like Bath & Body Works’s new collaboration with Disney! To ring in the spooky season, they’re introducing a brand new, limited-edition collection that’s all about Tim Burton’s classic film The Nightmare Before Christmas. Amongst an assortment of candles, body care, and more, this collaboration features two fragrances inspired by the iconic characters Jack Skellington and Sally.
Naturally, unique, on-theme candles and body care take center stage in this Nightmare Before Christmas collection. For the first time, the single-wick candles will come with a layered, dual-colored wax. You can also stock up on some Sally-scented hand soap or some Jack Skellington-scented body cream โ or even buy one of each.
According to B&BW, Jack’s scent is “a warm, woody fragrance with notes of pumpkin screams, glowing palo santo and spooky spiced vanilla,” while Sally’s is “a bright, fruity fragrance with notes of ghastly blooms, berry patchwork and forbidden tonka.” And it’s not just the fragrances that are inspired by the classic The Nightmare Before Christmas couple, but the color schemes, too.
Oh, and that’s not all. Disney & Bath & Body Works is bringing in some accessories, too! The collection includes some adorable PocketBac clips with characters from the film, like Oogie Boogie, Zero, and the Mayor. If you choose to buy one of the hand soaps, you can also pick up a Zero-themed hand soap holder, just to bring the theme home. Last but most certainly not least, this collaboration offers Jack- and Sally-themed tote bags and coin purses! For any The Nightmare Before Christmas fans out there, you do not want to miss this collection.
