Butterfly

Butterfly is absolutely a close cousin of both Sweet Pea, Carried Away...and also Beautiful Day. It has the same light and upbeat quality, but this is more balanced and a little more...dare I say it, grown up. The raspberry is tangy, and I smell a heart of some sort of white floral rather than the alleged "iris". It's nice, and smells decidedly clean, but I find it slightly more compelling for some reason than many of B&BW's fruity and clean releases. It's nice, and slightly shampoo-y, but actually manages to smell memorable. It lists vanilla in the notes, but it's only slightly so, and I'm glad for it. I'm tired of vanilla honestly. It makes a safe fragrance for the gym, hot days, office work, or sensitive environments, and I think it would be difficult to locate someone who dislikes this. I had a frag friend recommend this to me, and I'm so thankful she did! I didn't expect to be impressed, but I am. It's refreshing, and makes me feel happy and pretty 🦋🌞 (Cross posted to both entries.)

Sweet, happy, bright, joyful, radiant, and very beautiful. The raspberry nectar gives a lovely sweet and slightly tart scent to the delicate, airy, and fluffy vanilla... think whipped vanilla meringue drizzled with raspberry nectar, or even a kind of raspberry cotton candy. There is only a very subtle floral hint from the soft Iris petals, just barely noticeable. Such a wonderful fragrance, it makes me smile! An easy scent to love! I own this in the perfume, body mist, lotion, and shower gel and I get really good performance with it especially when I use the body care products too. The longevity is great, it lasts all day on me. The projection is nice too, it radiates out about an arm’s length from me.

I am a sucker for fruity and bright scents, and Butterfly is truly the epitome of those two things. It is airy and light and perfect for spring (although I personally wear this year round). This spray is definitely not for people who enjoy sultry or musky scents. It feels "young" and fun. Upon initial spray, you get a strong raspberry note, then the iris kicks in, and as it fades, it leaves a mix of the two and a slight vanilla note. I personally prefer this, because I like how it stays mostly fruity and uplifting.

Freaking LOVE this perfume♡ The thing is, it doesn't last as much as I like, but, it doesn't matter, it is gorgeous, feminine, sweet, powdery, lovely and sexy!! Definitely, one of my favorites form BBWs.

Butterfly is so much fun, the notes are ultra y2k manic pixie rave girl. I layer these products with dior addict: purple glow and the bbw delicate iris.
