What do reviewers say about Bare Vanilla and Frostmelt?
Bare Vanilla is a mist, not a perfume. Expect intimacy, not projection. The patchouli heart keeps the sweetness from going flat, and the sandalwood drydown keeps it interesting long after application.Bare Vanilla
This is the mint chocolate you actually want to wear. Not toothpaste, not chewing gum. The real thing, powdery, sweet, and gone before the night is. Limited edition, which tracks.Frostmelt
