Fire At Will

Fire At Will (FAW) began its quiet magic the moment I boarded in Budapest for my 14-day Splendour of Europe River Cruise, a £52 eBay bottle that smelled like warm light poured over water. Vanilla rose first, golden and slow, the way the Parliament glowed at dusk. The city’s bridges arched like soft top notes and FAW drifted with the same gentle confidence as the Danube itself. As the ship glided toward Bratislava, mimosa unfurled - pale yellow, airy, tender, like the pastel façades leaning toward the river. The scent felt like the people waving from the banks, unhurried, warm, content to let the world pass at the river’s pace. Vienna deepened everything. Amber warmed on my skin the way the city’s palaces warmed in the morning sun - elegant, resonant, a quiet grandeur. FAW moved like a waltz through the air, its sweetness echoing the rhythm of horses on cobblestones and the soft murmur of cafés opening their doors. Through Dürnstein, FAW turned honey lit, like apricot orchards and castle ruins perched above the water. Melk softened it further, creamy, serene - the scent of monastery walls that had held centuries of silence. FAW didn’t sit on my skin, it drifted with the ship, becoming part of the river’s breath. Linz added a playful brightness - the vanilla sparkling like modern art installations and the laughter of people strolling along the waterfront. In Passau, where three rivers meet, FAW layered itself - vanilla-amber-mimosa trio, merging just as the waters blended below, a quiet alchemy of worlds becoming one. Regensburg brought a whisper of smoke, a medieval breath of timbered houses and ancient stone. FAW deepened, as if the city’s history had brushed against it. By Nuremberg, the sweetness thickened into roasted sugar and warm resin - comforting, familiar, like tavern windows glowing at dusk and the hum of stories shared over beer. Bamberg echoed that warmth with a faint smokiness, curling like the city’s famous Rauchbier - unexpected, rich and atmospheric. Würzburg brightened FAW again, mimosa glowing like vineyards rolling down to the river, sunlit and hopeful; the scent of spring stretching its limbs. Wertheim softened everything: vanilla and amber blending into a tender calm, the scent of quiet towns where the river slows and the world feels gentle. FAW turned velvety, twilight smooth, the river reflecting silver as the ship glided on, the landscape folding into soft hills and half timbered houses in Miltenberg. Rüdesheim made FAW sparkle: honey, music, wine drifting from the shore, the perfume lifting like laughter carried by the wind. And then the Rhine. Castles perched on cliffs like old sentinels, vineyards rolling down the hillsides, towns that looked painted rather than built. I’d lift my wrist to my face and FAW felt golden, like the sun warming the deck chairs. Sweet, comforting, quietly joyful. It was the scent of taking life easy, of letting beauty come to me instead of chasing it. And then Cologne: amber glowing like cathedral light, sacred and resonant, the scent settling into something timeless, as if the city itself had exhaled through it. By the time we reached Amsterdam, the vanilla had faded into a soft golden memory, like the canals at sunset. FAW didn’t end, it settled, gentle, warm, eternal - the final note of a journey that felt like floating through a dream. The smooth FAW sail, the 68 locks, the castles drifting by, the feeling of life moving at the perfect pace. Three rivers became its rhythm. And April 2026 became the warm, golden heart of the perfume. FAW was £52. But it smells like forever, like a priceless memory.

Do you ever smell something so delicious, so exactly what you wanted that it recontextualizes everything else you own? This is it, this is MY perfect vanilla. I've never smelled Tihota, so I can't compare it to that, but I have a few other vanillas in my collection that I would've described as pure vanilla before I got my nose on Fire At Will. ● Eilish 1 (my favorite perfume): I would've never described this as a berry fragrance before, but the berries really come to the surface and I get that almost minty chocolate vibe some people have described. FAW is sweet, airy and slightly floral in comparison which makes Eilish smell spicier and fruitier in contrast. ● Vanille Insensee: my white whale, I've been chasing this scent forever, and have yet to find anything to replace it. VI is a lot more citrus forward, especially in the opening, but to my surprise the dry down is SO SO similar to this, I think it's the vetiver. VI is more woody and mossy, but the FAW dry down evokes the same memories that VI does. ● Kayali Vanilla 28: Side by side this one doesn't even smell like vanilla at all, this is patchouli and brown sugar. On its own I would've described this as pure deep brown sugar vanilla, but FAW has dethroned it. ●Bianco Latte/Eclaire by Lattafa: these are so synthetic in comparison, where FAW smells like airy, floaty vanilla pod, BL/Eclaire smell plasticky and so lactonic. Don't get me wrong I LOVE them but I don't think they're comparable at all. Bianco Latte is a milkshake made with artifical vanilla flavouring where FAW is realistic and natural. ●Burberry Goddess: not comparable whatsoever but I'm including this one to say it pairs absolutely beautifully with FAW, since Goddess is very lavender forward. Yes there are many linear vanilla scents out there, but all the ones I've tried are too synthetic or have terrible longevity. So while I do believe Fire at Will is overpriced, it is also the most beautiful linear vanilla I've ever smelled and if that's exactly what you're looking for and you can afford it, it's so worth it.

On my search for a niche vanilla frag, I ordered a sample of this. While I still have quite a few more to try and order, this one out of the three I recently tried in the past couple days I liked the most; accident vanille was a total let down, and MM EG was far too nutty for me. It’s worth mentioning that I prefer vanilla power (both versions) so far to the vanillas I tried but reading the reviews I feel like that’s something people love or hate. For me what makes VP such a banger is how powerful and long lasting it is, but it isn’t a delicate vanilla. This one was mostly vanilla with a bit of spice, sugary, but not overly sweet. I don’t think it lasts as long as I’d like and feel like I’d need to spray a ton for it to project the way I’d like, but wouldn’t last long. Still I did enjoy it quite well, and felt it was closer to the vanilla spectrum as the other two. I haven’t tried the much talked about indult, so we’ll see. Price point wise, at $220 I’m not sure if its FB worthy. I think this is better at a $150-170 range, so if I get it I’ll def be buying it on sale. If it had better projection I’d be ranking it higher. Overall I’d say it’s got the perfect amount of sweetness, not overly, not lacking, and isn’t just plain vanilla or vanilla disguised as something else with completely different notes like what I experienced with Accident Vanilles, it was pure chocolate and milk and no vanilla, and MM EG was too bitter and light, lacked the vanilla. I’d give this one a 4/5.

Rating: ✦✦✦✦✦✦✦ (8/10) Fire At Will by Jovoy is a warm and inviting gourmand that wraps you in a cloud of golden vanilla comfort. From the first spray, you're met with a deliciously sweet blend of vanilla and mimosa, giving it a creamy, slightly powdery brightness that feels both cozy and refined. There's a marshmallow softness in the drydown that feels indulgent without tipping into overly sugary territory. It’s a scent that whispers warmth, perfect for chilly days, evenings out, or anytime you want to feel softly cocooned. In terms of longevity, Fire At Will offers a solid 6–7 hours on the skin, with some lingering traces up to 8 hours—especially if layered or sprayed on clothing. While it doesn’t have the staying power of more intense gourmands, it holds its own and remains noticeable throughout most of the day. Projection is moderate in the beginning, forming a gentle scent bubble for the first couple of hours before settling closer to the skin. It’s not a fragrance that shouts; rather, it stays intimate and inviting—perfect for date nights or close encounters, but not the one you reach for when you want to make a bold entrance. If you're a fan of soft, creamy vanillas with a hint of elegance and subtle floral touches, Fire At Will is a lovely addition to your collection. It shares a similar DNA to scents like Gentle Fluidity Gold by MFK or Nishane Ani, but with a more laid-back, buttery softness that makes it uniquely comforting.

Been looking for a simple vanilla, for wearing on it's own and layering, and got 10mL of this (after sampling). I found Vanilla 28 to be too complex for what I wanted (maybe just too much patchouli? not a simple straight forward vanilla to me) Fire at Will is great! I used to think the opening was a bit plasticky, but I don't get that anymore. I put it on recently, and was like "mmm, what smells like choc chip cookies..." and realised it was me, hahah. Just a yummy sweetness that you want to find the source of, but isn't cloying. It is a little powdery, and I'd prefer it wasn't. Side note: i love sweet perfumes, but I just don't end up wearing them that often (only in winter, and I don't always feel like smelling sweet, even in winter. And when i do spray them, I often wear the same jacket everyday, and can still smell the perfume from the previous day), so although this is now my go to vanilla, I genuinely think i won't need an FB for a while. Edit: sprayed this in spring, because i wanted something a bit sweet. Again, I'm getting cookie vibes. Someone above mentioned biscoff, and I think they're not far off! Not as powdery today. "Feminine" came to mind after I sprayed it. Honestly so good. Gourmand and sweet, but not dense/sticky/overpowering. There is defs an airiness to it. It's probs the powderiness, but it's not coming off as powdery in the way I usually dislike.

PSA: The deep amber red juice is the reformulation. The lighter clear-ish yellow juice is the original formulation. Review is for the lighter, original formulation. I like it. Sugary, cotton candy pure vanilla extract. I don't get the depth from the brown sugar, more like white sugar. Not cloying, can be daytime and year round. Simple, linear and not unique. Disappointing performance! - Delizia de Marshmallow is the most similar to FAW. It's also got the sugary lightness. Excellent performance. Redundant. - Tihota is slightly deeper, muskier, less sugary, more pure vanilla extract. Softer performance. Redundant. - Escapade has burnt sugar, almost spice at the top but similar vanilla drydown. Short lived. Redundant. - Vanilla 28 is deeper, sexier, more intoxicating, nighttime version of FAW. Brown sugar, amber, tonka, give 28 depth and dimension. Grounding notes like tonka and soft florals make 28 more wearable for different occasions. Different enough to own both. - Bianco Latte is pretty different. It has milk, which cuts the sweetness. Not redundant. $150-170 USD on Venba, Olfactoryfactory, MaxAroma, FragrancePassion, 50ML (retailer name). For the price, consider Cirque du Soleil L'eau. More complex and sophisticated than FAW but maintains airiness.

Omg so I finally bought a full bottle and love it more than the travel size? My travel size was an amber color and much stronger.. in a way that was different from my light yellow bottle and sample. The lighter color is sooooo fluffy and sugary. The darker color almost smells like licorice.. idk .. but anyways the lighter color is for real y’all... it’s almost marshallowy... it’s def a cousin to escapade gourmand but less chemical.. this is what I though EG was supposed to smell like. It also reminds me of Tihota and deliza di marshmallows but Less musky.. DDM having the most musk. Tihota is sweet and vanilla.. but this is sweeter. I love them both. When I wore it.. I did not intentionally get cookies.: but mixed with my Creme brûlée lotion I got a gentle butter cream frosting .. but very gentle and not obvious.. when I hit the bar I could hear people saying “is some on baking brownies ... it’s smells like cookies.. so it’s not obviously bale shop.. but can lean that way to others when you get close to them... like Tihota.. this is like a ghost.. and the trail fills the room in a indirect way? Anyways I really love this and could see me buying only this and Tihota for my vanillas.. wont need EG as this smoother and creamier in my opinion

This is my new favorite vanilla perfume! I ordered several vanilla samples and this one was the winner. Similar to Indult Tihota (which I also absolutely loved) but more brown sugar forward and definitely better sillage. It’s not floral, woody, fruity, or boozy. It is a beautiful gourmand that has just the perfect amount of sweetness and it lasts forever on my clothes. It has the most addictive buttercream on top of a vanilla bean cupcake scent that somehow doesn’t smell juvenile. I’ve been complimented by several strangers while wearing this layered with eos Vanilla Cashmere hand cream. For comparison, here are some others I’ve tried and these were my experiences: Althair 💜but I have to be in the mood for the spice. By the 🔥 💜 but only in cold weather. Vanille Insensee 💜 but not gourmand enough. Guerlain SDV was a bit too incensey for my liking. Angelique Noire was a tad too green/herbal. Burberry Goddess was way too lavender forward. D&G Devotion was more faux lemon than cake. Eau Duelle had just a touch too much pepper. Kayali Vanille 28 just smelled artificial. Blanche Bete was beautiful but overpowering. JPG La Belle was soooo sweet. This is likely as close as I’ll ever get to my perfect vanilla perfume. 🧁🍨🤍

omg, i love this ♡♡♡ i was searching for a sweet vanilla perfume, and fell in love with this after a year of searching and discovering. the sweet opening is so yummy, sweet and openable, and the vanilla is spectacular but never too sickly, overpowering or synthetic (slightly, maybe, synthetic on first spray, but barely detectable, and it was only noticeable to me after i read one of the previous reviews). i love how this is super sweet but not cloying or juvenile, it’s like a sexy sultry warm sugariness evolving into a sugar dusted flower blossom, like my ideal sweet fragrance is marshmallow vanilla sugar and florals, which i have yet to find, but the mimosa in this adds such a warmth and sensuality, it takes this to another level, enhancing the brown sugar and vanilla in a way that i have yet to come across. the quality is also obviously exceptional. my favorite sweet vanilla perfume by far. whenever i'm feeling a little down, i turn to this, and it's kind of my default perfume when i'm not sure what to wear. so romantic, intimate, comforting and inviting. so obsessed, it literally turns me on, like it’s so sexy drippy creamy deep hot sugary sweetness. love love love love, i love you so much, xoxo

Fire At Will is the scent of cotton candy being spun at the county fair. Imagine cotton candy essential oil, but light enough not to be cloying. It's admittedly reminiscent of a teen girl body spray, but so masterfully done that I kind of love it? (Edit: I wholeheartedly love it.) I didn't think I was a straight gourmand kind of person, but this sparks joy. It's so smooth and somehow angelic, very unlike the synthetic, abrasive candy smells I'm kind of used to with this type of scent. I saw some comparisons here to Kayali Vanilla 28, so I gave that a spray today, and lord it could not be more different in execution. Where Fire At Will is exquisite and charming, Vanilla 28 is off-puttingly artificial and uninteresting. There is, granted, a similarity in the base notes once Vanilla 28 dries down, but there's an unpleasant, deeper note that overpowers the initial spray of Vanilla 28 and still lingers in the dry-down. It's night and day between those two scents. This was my first experience with Jovoy, and I'm so excited now to try the others! Fire At Will has become my go-to scent out of my recent order of samples and I couldn't be happier about it.

This is a gorgeous, high quality fragrance. I’ve never been this impressed. This gives me hope that perfume can still be art. I will say I don’t think this fragrance is categorized correctly. This is not a cupcake vanilla. This is a woody vanilla with a wispy smoky feel. Vanilla Skin wants to be Fire at Will but is so abrasive and overly “modern” in its approach. Try both and you will be blown away by how much your standards will change. Fire at Will smells like real things. It’s like experiencing perfumery from another time. It’s delicate, not complicated, not ambitious, and doesn’t want to attract attention. The vanilla accord in here is probably the best I have ever tried. I have Tihota, Bianco Latte...I’ve tried Guerlain SDV, basically all the famous vanillas. This is the best. My only issue with this fragrance, tragically, is the smokiness. It’s very subtle but nonetheless is something I happen to be very sensitive to. Not sure I can personally get past that aspect. But otherwise, this gets my highest rating.

Upon first spray, my initial thoughts: Wow, wow and WOW...this is vanilla done right...this fragrance is beautiful! Fire At Will is a beautiful, feminine, vanilla-centric fragrance. For me, SOME vanilla fragrances can be too boozy. Others tend to be too sweet, as well smelling like vanilla extract on skin. The unmistakeable, opening note of vanilla is the loveliest, most embracing, pure vanilla fragrance I've smelled in quite some time, in any fragrance. The opening vanilla note is warm, golden, very gourmand-ish...just beautiful. Wish the opening lasted with intensity. However, Fire At Will quickly morphs into mid-notes of powdery and gentle mimosa, a hint of caramel (or brown sugar) and some additional slightly sweet vanilla. There's definitely some musk, a wee-bit of amber and a hint of very green vetiver in the dry down. This perfume is really lovely...I love it! I just wish the fragrance lasted longer on my skin. I'd say longevity is minimal, silage is minimal, also. Full bottle!! I LOVE this stuff!

I wish I could find a dupe for this fragrance as I cannot buy it from where I live. Like many others stated, you might think there is no special thing on the notes. However, it smells heavenly to me. It's a beautiful floral vanilla perfume with a caramel-gourmand kick to it. And let me tell you, there is no smell like it (wish it was:( ) because the caramel note does not hit you directly, instead, you feel its traces on the back of your nasal cavity (like an aftertaste). And it dances with the mimosa which is like, the show's star. I usually wear it in colder weather but I think it would also be nice in spring. I wouldn't wear it in summer. In conclusion, I am absolutely in love with this one. Another point is that some people found it similar to Kayali 28, but I disagree. Kayali is a beautiful classic amber-vanilla scent (which I find very similar to Mancera Amber Fever for some reason). Fire At Will has that interesting gourmand-mimosa dance in it. Definitely recommend you try it if you haven't!

Mimosa is one of the few flowers I love, precisely because it doesn't smell like a flower. It's powdery and sweet and it works exceptionally well to create airiness and provide a spun sugar effect. Yes, of course there's vanilla in here, but I think the mimosa and the sugar are the stars of the show. For reference, in terms of texture, I'd say that if Bianco Latte is a marshmallow, Fire At Will is cotton candy. Both are obviously very sweet, but BL is thick, dense and chewy whereas FAW is light, fluffy and airy. In terms of smell, I find it extremely similar to Escapade Gourmande. I don't have neither the money nor the space to have super extensive collection of full bottles so I try to be very selective with what I buy. I honestly think that if you are in a similar situation as me, if you have one you don't need the other and since this one is cheaper, I'd go for this one.

Oh. My. Goodness. I have died and gone to Heaven. How is this scent even possible? It smells like straight vanilla cupcakes right out of the oven! Granted, I am a sucker for anything Vanilla but this? This is a Masterpiece for Gourmand/Vanilla lovers. This is a very successful blind buy!! Vanilla upon vanilla with caramel and a tiny dab of chocolate, at least, to my nose. Projection and Sillage are NUCLEAR with this one so I am going to be careful when I spray it. Longevity is also phenomenal. 12 + hours on my skin and on my clothes? Days! Even after I washed them, there was a hint of it left! I have Vaniglia by Mazzolari in my collection also but Vaniglia is more tame or less nuclear in terms of projection/sillage. Fire At Will is a B-O-M-B 💣💥 I am absolutely thrilled to have this Beauty in my collection, this will be treasured and cherished!

As someone who’s absolutely obsessed with gourmand-vanilla scents, this one has easily become a firm favourite. It’s a true, linear vanilla fragrance - no waiting for the dry down to get that delicious, dessert-like warmth. The vanilla is there from the very first spray, rich and full-bodied. I honestly can’t remember how it smelled on a blotter, so this review is purely based on how it wears on my skin. On first spritz, it’s a gorgeous blend of vanilla and burnt caramel, almost like crème brûlée. As it settles, the burnt edge softens, making way for a smooth, sugary warmth - think brown sugar and creamy vanilla - like walking into a pâtisserie filled with the scent of freshly baked treats. In the final stages, what’s left on my skin is the soft, comforting sweetness of vanilla gelato - creamy, airy, and effortlessly cosy. Absolutely dreamy.

Love this, it is so cozy. But it has this thing: when I spray it on, it is very much just alcohol (Bourbon) the first few minutes. Then it fades away (like I actually can't smell it at all), then suddenly it turns up and stays all day. It is like it's shy or something at first, but then gets comfortable in your presence and opens up to you, in a good way. It is warm, gives a cozy feeling, definitely relaxing and sensual. It is a sweet one, but not in a nauseating way. "Vanilla 28" is loud and complex, "Fire At Will" is quiet and simple. I think I like this one better, it is for all types of situations. "Fire At Will" I can put on before bed, "Vanilla 28" I can not. I think this is a safe blind buy, "Vanilla 28" is less so. But the shy part of "Fire At Will" make me think it may not come out of the shy stage for some.

Yummy. This is great. I tried it because I've heard its supposed to smell like BTFP (which I also love) but it doesn't, not really, not unless we're going to say everything with Vanilla in smells like BTFP lol. Was nervous of the Mimosa as I hate most frags with it in, but its undetectable to me. This dries down and smells like the most yummy chocolatey smell, which is shocking considering its not even listed in the notes but it is a similar chocolate vibe to BTFP its just not smoky at all. I get ALL the vanilla, tiny bit of sugar and musky amber. And somehow it smells like sophisticated palmers cocoa butter. Lingers for a long time on my wrist and its very cosy and comforting in cold weather, but IMO works in hot too as it takes on a more 'lotion' vibe (not sunscreen per say, just a nice cocoa butter)

I have wanted to try fire at will for a long time because I'm a vanilla lover, but I've been scared to because of the mixed reviews. I finally bought a sample and I',m glad I did, because on me it is absolutely beautiful. Yes it's a very "simple" fragrance that doesn't have a thousand different notes and it's quite linear. But it is so beautiful thanks to the memories and the comfort it provides. On my skin it smells like a gorgeous creamy vanilla dessert and it has a kind of airy quality thanks to which it's not cloying at all (I tried it during a hell of a heatwave, if it's not cloying now it will never be). Is it worth the price though ? I'm not sure. I could treat myself with a 15mL bottle, but when it comes to the full one, I'm not sure. If you're a gourmand lover it's a must try!

Opening is like vanilla pudding, almost like one of those yellow puddings you get at the grocery store. As it dries the florals blend well with the pudding, and as it develops it becomes even more floral and a little powdery/smoky from the musc. It’s sweet, yet the florals keep it light and airy. Perfomance is moderate. It smells great from the very second you spray it, it smells natural and not like alcohol. It’s one of the few fragrances that I can overspray without getting a headache. While other vanilla fragrances focus on toffee, sugar, bourbon or gelato scents, to me, Fire at Will captures the scent of ‘yellow vanilla’, like vanilla pudding or yellow cake stuffing, supported by yellow florals and musc. To me, this is a unique approach to a vanilla fragrance.

At first I wasn't crazy about this. The longevity was poor, projection mid, it seemed to be lackluster. I wasted half the bottle when I first got it trying to love it. I gave up and placed it in a drawer for about 9 to 10 months forgetting about it. Now fast forward and the vanilla seems to have matured so very beautifully It is now everything I was hoping for. I'm thinking this needs major maceration to deepen the vanilla To me, it now smells like how lucky charm marshmallows taste. I love it so much I am babying my first bottle. I'm going to repurchase, spray some on, and then let it sit for awhile. My scent pyramid today is: Burberry Goddess intense Burberry Goddess St. Barth Vanille West Indies & Jovoy Fire at will

My favorite vanilla (second to Happy Dust. By Narcotica) and currently my second favorite gourmand after L’Eau De Parfum by Cirque de Soleil. Projection is pretty close to the skin, which has its uses - I’m a medical assistant and the doctor I work with who is super sensitive to fragrances isn’t bothered by it, so I can still smell myself but not get scolded, lol. It’s so cozy and warm, just makes you want to have a day of taking a long bath, reading, making lattes and watching movies. The scent dries down and shows more of the mimosa and brown sugar. A lot of the time vanilla scents feel very alcohol-y to me, this one is smooth and warm. I wore it to the movies and it was such a vibe

Oh baby baby. Brown sugar tastiness and warm, comforting vanilla. Performs well and the drydown is beautiful. I’m awaiting a full bottle being delivered and I am ABSOLUTELY BUZZING. Edit: the full bottle arrived and absolutely has not disappointed in the slightest. It’s warm, sweet, no dodgy notes in there...just vanilla sugar caramel glory. It doesn’t sustain loudly for hours on end so you do need to respray BUT you will still have the faintest whispers on if on your skin after 8-9 hours, so it does perform relatively well. Edit again: this actually doesn’t perform the way I need it to. Tonight I have oversprayed massively, several times, and it’s gone within 2 hours. I won’t rebuy.

It smells delicious and lasts very, very long on clothing (obviously without projection, but I enjoy sniffing my collar throughout the day) It's never cloying, too warm, or too sweet to me, but I think it is much better for cold weather than warm weather. It is almost cloying in summer. On my skin, the opening is a pure vanilla extract which I enjoy very much. After around five minutes of spraying it on my skin, there is a strange salty play-dough like smell, but it goes away pretty quickly and it leaves a soft, sweet, vanilla custard scent which I also like. I think it lasts on my skin up to six hours, but I can still smell it on my scarf days after spraying it.

If Baccarat Rouge 540 was a Vanilla.....it would be FIRE AT WILL. This is for gourmand lovers. If you hate Vanilla, its probably bc you havnt smelled the right vanilla yet. This is rich vanilla. If vanilla grew out of the palm of Jesus' Hand, this is what vanilla would smell like. This is Vanilla with mimosa and if a missionary told me that an angel harvested this from soil with gold and diamonds from the 3rd heavens and flew it down into this earthly orbit just to place it in a bottle as a message from God as a reminder that He loved me....I would believe them. If you think Kayali Vanilla 28 is over hyped, its Bath and Body Works toilet water compared to this.

For my first wear: Upon first spray, I got some rubbing alcohol and then a hit of vanilla while waving my arm around one time. And then suddenly, within mere minutes, I smell nothing. I am shocked. As I read through the other reviews here, it seems I’m not alone, which is just so disappointing. On my second wear: this isn’t as faint as I originally thought. On first spray I get soft, cozy brown sugar and vanilla and it’s delightful. This is much, much more promising than the first run, but I still wish it had the power of Tihota Indult. Really loving it though. Tihota is pure vanilla extract, Fire at Will is a more rounded vanilla with brown sugar.

I've been sampling a lot of vanilla scents recently, trying to find The One. And I think this is my favourite. It's a shame it's so expensive! Some people are saying it's basic. However, I've tried a lot of cheaper vanillas and they are either mixed with so many other notes that to me they're a sickly mess, or they smell super synthetic. Fire At Will is like a realistic, really high quality, creamy vanilla extract. It's not a complex smell but it's so beautifully and elegantly done. Yes you can get much cheaper vanilla scents. You can get a vanilla body spray for a couple of £s. But it won't smell like this.

Okay.... Okay... I get the hype now. This is really good. It's a good basic vanilla without being boring. The brown sugar adds sweetness without being too sweet. The mimosa and musk keep it from being too thick and dense of a vanilla. If you feel like your collection is lacking a good basic vanilla that performs well and lasts then this is a good one. I do see myself wanting a full bottle but not until I finish some other stuff first. It is similar to Escapade Gourmand but without a trace of the play doh note that I got from that.

This creates a really good, fluffy vanilla cloud. It's almost a marshmallowy vanilla, especially in the opening. Love how the vetiver grounds the sweetness, so that the scent can be sugary without cloying. It's gourmand but still sophisticated, a very likable fragrance overall. Totally unisex imo. I wish the performance was better. This lasts about 3 hours on skin for me. Haven't tried spraying my clothes yet but with that being said, the sillage I get is minimal. It creates a very delicious scent bubble, but it won't project far.

The opening sweet vanilla smells very similar to Maison Mataha’s Escapade Gourmande, but with a darker more grounding base. Over time, that top sweet vanilla fades and you’re left with a deeper vanilla with smoky notes. It’s not as campfire as Replica’s By the Fireplace, nor as sweet as Escapade Gourmande, but it’s a decent mix conceptually between the two. It smells distinctly different from those fragrances but if you like both I’d imagine you’d like this, and if you owned both I don’t think this is one you’d need to own.

I can't believe how much I love this scent. I have been slowly trying vanilla-based fragrances like Lira, Escapade Gourmand, Lick Me and others. This one is my absolute favorite. It smells like the most delicious baked goods coming out of the oven, but it isn't so sweet that it's cloying. Stays close to the skin which is perfect for daytime wear even though I would tend to pull this out in the evenings. She definitely gets compliments. I smell my wrists on the regular when I'm wearing Fire At Will. Worth every penny.

Feels like eating a butterscotch ice cream and your grandma's house on a warm slightly humid day. You can feel the quilt of your grandma's blankets against your body warming you up. It's so sweet and warm. One of the most welcoming fragrances out there. It is everything I want a vanilla fragrance to be. Almost no sharp notes, everything feels rounded out and blended well. Maybe too sweet for others because of brown sugary notes, but for those who don't mind a sweeter smell, it's just perfect. Definitely worth buying.

This is the most edible scent i've smelled. it smells just like a brown sugar & vanilla cookie. It smells so delicious it makes me hungry for dessert. If you do not like sweet or edible scents stay far away. It isnt very long lasting i'd say 5-6 hours and it has good sillage for around 2 hours, pairs well with vanilla body lotions. but it smells so good i can forgive the performance... dont expect a complicated scent with many layers to it though its simply brown sugar and vanilla.

You can wear this vanilla perfume year-round, even on warmer days. It's an airy vanilla, of very good quality, not too complex, with a subtle mimosa note. You can easily use 15 sprays of it without intoxicating others. This is different from, for example, Bianco Latte, which I also find a lovely vanilla perfume, but you shouldn't use too much of it. I do experience a kind of nose blindness with Fire at Will. That's a shame, because it's a wonderful perfume.

This smells like Vanilla pudding to me with a sparkling hint of mimosa. I like it even better after a couple of hours when the mimosa has faded a bit, leaving mainly the vanilla scent. I can smell it on my wrist even after a shower. Bath and Body works has a body spray called "Wild Vanilla", which smells very similar to this, without the mimosa. It only comes in a small size, and you can get it for less than four dollars during the frequent sales.

I really love it. It reminds me of Bianco Latte, however without everything it bothered me about BL - so without the plasticky smell of Bianco Latte, which I could smell for first few wears ( I ended up liking BL, but Fire at will is just way better). It smells like more evolved, distinguished versions of Bianco - perhaps a bit old-money version of it. I adore it and thinking of buying a full bottle. Wonderfully for fall and winter season.

Opening smells like a delicious, airy marshmallow almost. Then the middle turns kind of weird on me. Sort of smells like toothpaste, so definitely not a fan of that. But then the scent settles into a yummy vanilla, brown sugar and amber scent that I wish I could just smell like 24/7! It really would’ve been the most perfect vanilla scent if it wasn’t for that weird toothpaste scent that I get for a little while. Still love it though!

This truly one of the most elevated amazing quality vanillas out there. I don’t get too much of the mimosa floral note. Just a rich vanilla extract brown sugar. I don’t typically reach for vanillas since “warm vanilla sugar body spray” was my middle school scent profile and usually reads juvenile to me but this is so unique and last days on clothing. I went through a 10ml this summer and I think it will be amazing for fall/winter

Murraciole was NOT playing around with this one. white suit type of fragrance but make it vanilla. "oh but vanilla is femini-" NO. men and masculine nonbinary individuals, this is the "true vanilla" fragrance for you. it's very cozy but also very refined and layerable. i suggest layering with your smoky fragrances for that kind of restrained touch of sweetness. (ladies, layer this with rose, fruit notes, or jasmine. trust me.)

i am obsessed with this scent. its a light sugary vanilla. that brown sugar smells amazing but its light and airy, not heavy gourmand, could be beverage of the mimosa. truly a masterpiece, i love it for winter/fall but this is something i can wear any season. needless to say, as someone with almost 200 perfumes, upon first sniff i really thought about it as signature scent worthy. thats how good it is

I was hesitant to try this for a while because of the notes and thought it’d be too feminine but this is amazing to me. It’s sweet but not in a pungent and sickly way, and unisex straight down the middle to me. Extremely smooth and has great longevity. One of the few fragrances I’ve smelled and immediately wanted a bottle of. Will definitely purchase in the future when my 8ML travel size runs out

I...did not expect to love this. I'm trying a range of vanillas for a daily scent, and the decant sprayer on this just smelled like fuzzy musk to me. But then I sprayed it. Omg. I didn't get much from it for the first 30-45 minutes, and then it went resinous and spicy and perfect on me. I cannot get over how delicious it is. I have never considered paying niche prices for a fragrance before now.

5 star interpretation of a rice krispy treat plus premium vanilla ice cream. I find it to be creamier than Tihota but very similar overall. This is an elite vanilla! Sophisticated and laidback at the same time. Sexy and elegant. I want to be the woman I imagine wears this perfume. Amazing longevity. But alas! My husband smells marshmallow and chemicals so I will not be full bottle-ing.

Klasik bir vanilya dna’sı var, biliyorsunuzdur. Bare Vanilla ve Vanilla 28 kokularına benziyor. Ama daha Parizyen bir havada yapılmış, daha kaliteli bir parfüm. Mimosa notası parfüme karakter katıyor, esmer şeker ise teninizi yeni pişmiş bir tepsi kurabiyeye dönüştürüyor. Kaliteli bir vanilya parfümü arıyorsanız tek adresiniz. Bu parfümle tanıştığım için çok mutluyum.

Omg! I got my decant today and I fell so in love with just a spray!! I like this more than Bianco latte!! When I say vanilla, this is exactly the scent I imagine. I want to get the full bottle so bad 😩 The thing is it didn’t last long, but idc, i’ll overspray. It reminds me of bath and body works gingerbread latte. I used to love that perfume when I was young

This is just delicious. I've been on the hunt for tihota sisters to add to my collection. It's just a light airy caramel vanilla. Not childish or immature. It gives off summer dress, breezy evening, relaxation but almost sensual. It's a full bottle kind of perfume. I wish lattafa or someone would dupe it because this price tag is brutal but so worth it.

She’s majestic but.. there’s others like her out there that I just like more. Happy Dust from Narcotica blows the one out of the water in the vanilla world. Can you justify both? Absolutely. Rarely do I like anything brown sugar on my skin but this stunningly wraps vanilla, brown sugar, and musk in a beautiful scent profile that is undeniably delicious.

I got a tester for this and I liked it ! During the opening and initial impressions, I can really detect and enjoy the mimosa note accenting the fragrance rather beautifully, however, it fades and the vanilla overpowers in the settle-down not too long after. It’s not too unique for a vanilla imo, but I still really like it !

This is absolutely gorgeous! Lovely and sweet vanilla with brown sugar and musk...I can smell the mimosa as well. 😍 I layer this with Burberry Goddess and everyone goes crazy! This may be my favorite vanilla fragrance. I didn't like Vanilla 28, Escapade Gourmand or Bianco Latte at all but this smells amazing on my skin.

This must’ve been reformulated. Today I received my new bottle straight from Jovoy Paris - the juice was dark brown/red. My old bottle (also bought from Jovoy Paris last year) has yellow liquid. While the old yellow juice smells like buttery vanilla pudding, the new red version smells more like sugary soap and musk.
