Day 486 - Abercrombie & Fitch

Currently Burning: Abercrombie & Fitch

Now onto the daily review!

Abercrombie & Fitch (3): This is a dupe for the Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce scent. To me, it smells slightly more like the perfume than the cologne, because it isn't quite as heavy of a scent. It also smells similar to a Mahogany Teakwood scent. It wasn't super duper strong but it was still decent.

Vanilla Grapefruit (4): This one was a really nice grapefruit scent. I really liked how the vanilla toned down the bitterness in it. It's the same grapefruit that is in Grapefruit Cooler and Pink Grapefruit.

Carmen Miranda (5): This one is amazing!!! It's a super fruity scent that smells predominantly of orange. However, it's not a fake powdery orange and I love it! Definitely candle-worthy.

Currently Burning: Sea Breeze

Sea Breeze (2): This is a mix of Ocean Mist and Rain. I've stated before that I'm not really a fan of Victoria's Rain scent. It is super earthy. The Ocean Mist makes it more of a fresh scent and it is a lot better warm, but it's not one I would repurchase.

Cherry Cobbler (2): I didn't really like this one. Something about the way that the cherry and cobbler interacted wasn't doing it for my nose.

Sunflower (2): This one is much better warmed up. It's a very strong perfumy type of floral. Not a favorite but not so strong it gives me a headache.

Baby's Breath (2): This is a powdery floral. Not super strong in your face but not really a sweet floral either.

Banana (2): This one reminded me of a banana bubble gum or maybe a powered banana. Definitely not a real banana scent. It was fairly strong, I'm just not really into banana scents.

Party in My Cabana (5): I really enjoyed this one! It reminded me of Aquolina Blue Sugar just not quite as sweet and a little more musky. Very good men's cologne type of fragrance!

Currently Burning: Midnight in Macon

Midnight in Macon (4): This is a mix of cedarwood and peach. It is an awesome blend warmed up! The two scents really meld into each other to create a new one. The peach is also very true and not candy-like.

Currently Burning: Cotton Blossom

Cotton Blossom (3): This is a Bath & Body Works dupe. It smells very close to the product - especially on cold throw. Warmed up it changes slightly and isn't as soapy smelling. OK but not a favorite.

Day 475 - Sunflower Fields

Currently Burning: Sunflower Fields

Now onto the daily review!

Sunflower Fields (3): This is a mix of sunflower, gardenia, and baby powder. This one I really disliked on cold throw because I think sunflower just smells weird. However, warmed up it was a very good blend. I didn't get much gardenia but a lot more of the baby powder came out warmed up and it was nice.

Currently Burning: Orange Caramel Biscotti

Orange Caramel Biscotti (1): I did not like this one at all. If I was right over it I could smell orange, but the only scent that I could smell far away was the biscotti which is a very bad cherry almond type of scent. Not for me.

Simply Delicious (3): I had this one a long time ago and decided to try it again. This is a creamy, buttery, vanilla pear type of scent. More bakery than fruit for sure. It's ok, but I prefer more fruity pear scents to bakery pears.

Marshmallow Banana Dream Cake (2): This one was very light. I also didn't get any banana out of it, just marshmallow and cake. Not bad but not something that I would go out of my way to get.

Tahitian Vanilla (4): This one is super good warmed up! Cold it smells kind of like suntan lotion, but warmed up it's like a very creamy coconut. Super exotic vanilla!

Emerald Sea (4): This one is a nice green fruity scent. It has tropical fruits, but mostly what I get is a very clean, green type of scent. It's in the same vein as Breath of Ireland but more green and ocean breezy.

Dark Kiss (4): This is a Bath and Body Works dupe. Not sure how close it is, but it's a very nice feminine musk type of scent (same family as Twilight Woods and Egyptian Musk). Very deep, sexy type of scent.

Apple Martini (3): This is an interesting scent. It almost smells like apple and lime to me. The apple is very tart! It's nice but I usually prefer a sweeter apple.

Day 466 - Brown Sugar

Currently Burning: Brown Sugar

Now onto the daily review!

Brown Sugar (3): This is a pretty plain scent. It smells like sniffing a bag of brown sugar. It has that molasses undertone that keeps it from being too sweet. I think this one would make a pretty good mixer but on its own it's a little bit lacking.

Day 465 - Vanilla Cream Raspberry

Currently Burning: Vanilla Cream Raspberry

Now onto the daily review!

Vanilla Cream Raspberry (3): I really wanted to like this one! It was sooo good on cold throw because it had Victoria's raspberry scent that I love and a creamy vanilla. However, when I melted it the raspberry took a back seat to a creme brulee type of scent. I'm not the biggest bakery fan up there and I wish this one was more fruity.

Bamboo & White Grapefruit (2): This is a very green scent with a tart grapefruit note. I'm not the biggest fan of bamboo scents because they're very astringent-smelling to my nose, but if you like clean scents this would be for you!

Field of Dreams (1): Something about this one my nose REALLY dislikes on cold throw. The description is really vague talking about fresh cut grass and spring mornings, but to me it just smells like a strong perfumy floral.

Vanilla Lace (2): This is a very perfumy vanilla and it's also a very light scent. If you like vanilla and feminine musk then this is a good one for you, but if not there are much better vanillas that CBV carries.

Asian Garden (3): This one was better than I thought it would be based on cold throw. This is a mix of Patchouli, Sweet Pea, and Rain. I really dislike the Rain scent but the patchouli and sweet pea are nice in it. I wouldn't really say it screams sweet pea because it's a very earthy scent, but it was decent. Not a fav, but probably the best of the Rain scents I've tried.

Peach Ambrosia (4): This is a very nice peach scent. It also has Marshmallow Ambrosia in it so it's got that gooey, slightly perfumy marshmallow note to it as well. It's not my favorite peach from CBV but it was still very nice!

Island Kiss (1): This is a blend of White Ginger and Seaberry. I don't really get White Ginger out of it at all. It's a pretty strong perfumy floral with kind of a gross fruit on the under side. Not for me at all.
