Bare Vanilla Untamed

I love this more than the Original Bare Vanilla. At first sniff, it reminded me of BBW Bonfire Bash with a hint of floral. After a while, it's 100% gourmand vanilla scent. When I'm in an air-conditioned room, BV Untamed dries down to a custard-filled chocolate donut. Under the sun, the amber and floral notes becomes more apparent. I don't get a lot of that smokiness. It really depends on our body chemistry. Longevity is superb but the sillage is weak. If you wear fragrances to turn heads, this won't satisfy you. In comparison, BV Untamed smells sweeter than Classic BV (the new releases smell weaker! ugh), BV Decadent (smells fresher due to the amber), and BBW Bonfire Bash (more woody and smokey).

This is a richer vanilla note than that of bare vanilla...more almost reminiscent of vanilla lace. That honestly is what drew me into purchasing multiple bottles. However, the twist is the softly laced apple blossom and the slew of unrevealed notes...definitely a combo of woods, spice & a touch of smoke. I definitely get an undercurrent of patchouli in this one and maybe even orris. Projection & longevity are fabulous for just a mist! This one becomes heady & almost cloying in warmer weather on me. So it's a perfect fall/winter easy reacher!!!

the most beautiful body mist flanker i’ve ever seen!! not only is the bottle beautiful, but the juice in there is heaven sent. it smells like the actual bare vanilla at first, but when it’s dried down, it smells like kayali’s vanilla 28 mixed with bare vanilla and bonfire bash. i recommend this for every gourmand vanilla girl, such as me. and no, u do not get any apple from the apple blossom, which is good for me, bcs u get that beautiful warm and ambery vanilla instead. definitely a safe blind-buy!! x

This does smell a lot like bare vanilla, but there’s some wood and smokiness to it. It doesn’t last too long even with layering it with the lotion but it stays on the clothes quite a bit and that’s actually where the wood and smokiness come in more than on the skin. It can give me the same vibe as MixBars vanilla bourbon, they’re not the same but I think they can smell similar to some, if not that’ll be a great perfume to layer with this scent anyways.

honestly this is one of my ultimate fav fragances, it has the strenght of a quality perfume. And the smell is so complex, delicious and sexy: vanilla, floral wood and the smokyness of it. I try to use it only in special ocasions because i have never found another bottle of this flanker. If anyone has a legit dupe (not vanilla 28 nor vanilla bourbon), tell me.
