Black Currant Vanilla

This is my signature winter/fall fragrance. I LOVE IT. Spent a small fortune on a bottle of the EDT as it is discontinued. Well worth the $100 spent. It is smoky and cozy. I find that it really meshes well with my body chemistry. My ex boyfriend bought me the set of body lotion, oil and body wash. We used it up in no time and...let's just say he really LOVED the smell of it. BBW Black Currant Vanilla stays PUT on your skin or on your clothes. It leaves behind a beautiful sweet lemon and black currant top note, a healthy pop of rosemary, followed by a dose of creamy vanilla, musk (though it's not listed I definitely catch a hint of it) and a healthy dose of pumpkin in the dry down. Perfect for the holidays. Black Currant Vanilla makes me think of being snuggled up in front of a warm fire on a cold winter's day. Or a stroll through the park, all bundled up. As the biting chill in the air nips at your cheeks, you pull your neck into your scarf and breathe in warmth and comfort. Hot chai tea and incense. The smell of your partners skin as you take a close sniff, falling more and more in love with them. The rich warmth of autumn in it's full spectrum of gold, vermilion and scarlet. If you like this one, I suggest Jasmine Vanilla from BBW, also from the Sensual line. It's powdery and sweet. Kind of similar but less of a seasonal fragrance and more of a year round fragrance.

This a favorite of mine. I'm not fond of vanilla, but I get no stuffy hard to take a deep breath feel with this at all. Whatever! I love this stuff! It's like velcro...I haven't enough strength to pull my own nose away from this! I hope others don't find this offensive. I have the lotion and it's quite strong. I wouldn't wear it to church because it seems to be one of those scents like incense, some love it and some hate it. Anywhere but church though, LOOK out! I'll be like a death fog, a joyous one, but deathly to those around me!

It smells like lemon vanilla pastries in the beginning, and ends with an amber smokiness that I really enjoy. With the lotion, you get more incense. The spray tends to be more on the lighter side and sweeter. I like the fact that it smells a bit like nag champa during the latter stages. Cheap, nice and not boring. I wish BWW did more scents like these instead of those vague fruity florals.

This is such a smooth sexy scent. I own the matching shower gel and lotion; the lasting power is pretty good combining just those two. I'm glad they added this to the database. This one and Ylang Ylang Myrrh (which is sadly discontinued) were always my two favorites. I like to wear this during the winter months and when February rolls around; it's my Valentine's Day scent. :)

I really like this because it's so sensual with all of those lovely garamond notes and none of the usual sugar so I don't smell like dessert. I wish it was a bit easier to find, I've had to get the dupe a few times. It's no surprise men like it because supposedly vanilla, pumpkin, licorice (or anise) and pumpkin tops their "turn on" fragrances and this has three of the four.
