    This fragrance smells weak and off to me. It's a light, watery, strangely dirty smelling orange (like a hint of pickled beets for some reason :/) and a waft of light, creamy vanilla. I was hoping...

    Ha, ha, ha. It's clear that the U.S. marketing people of Antica Farmacista mangled the translation of the name of this perfume which they got from their Italian formulators. "Bourbon Vanilla" is...

    Simply put...I love it. Creamsicle-ish beginning ending with the creamiest, non-cloying vanilla with a hint of something else........the bourbon, I suppose? Cannot stop smelling my wrists. ...

    Rated "2" for price as I got this at huge discount at TJ Maxx. That being said...this is one fun and lovely "ice-breaker" fragrance; the kind that puts a smile on peoples' faces when they get...

    Okay, I love gourmand vanilla scents and this one is near perfect. It is a non-artifical vanilla scent with strong orange hints in the opening and middle. It smells EXACTLY like a creamsicle. The...

    I swapped for a bottle of this and when I got it I was worried. It smelled overwhelmingly of alcohol. But as soon as I sprayed it on I smelled beautiful mandarin orange. This is a lovely...

    I absolutely adore this fragrance that smells just like a creamsicle!! It has just the right amount of orange/vanilla without being to much if you know what I mean. I am a fan of Comptoir Sud...

    I love this perfume :) On the first spray I get lots of juicy mandarin and then it dries down to a not too sweet vanilla with hints of mandarin. This lasts all day on me and not many things do. ...

    I really like this - I only gave it a 4 b/c it has a very bitter orange scent when first sprayed. The drydown is a soft, unsweet vanilla with notes of orange. The staying power is OK on me -...

    This is such a lovely orange creamcicle with a hint of liquor. Smells like it would be a tasty coctail! You know the kind. You're sipping away at one, two, three, you loose count. You didn't...

    I used to love this a lot, and I still think the drydown is great (a yummy nutty, buttery vanilla). But the more I smell this, the more I notice the aspirin-like quality. I see that other reviewers...

    The top note is a very sharp mandarin, but the dry down reminds me of a melted creamsicle; a warm orangey vanilla. It isn't as sweet as I expected it to be, but because I like sweet, I prefer...

    It is nice, very vanilla slight mandarin. I was hoping for the opposite but still is a pleasing scent. Can't wait to try Antica's other scents!

    There are moments when I get a flash of memory of how wonderful the first sniff of this fragrance can be: rich, sweet, fruity, vanilla. The best top-notes combination I have ever smelled, and even...

    I love it! It's very orangy at first but then it turns into creamy carmelly vanilla, with just slight hint to orange. Even though it's a very warm scent, the orange makes it sunny enough to wear...

    This is a very nice spring scent. For me, the dominant scent is mandarin, but it's balanced nicely by a deep, smoky vanilla, which I suppose has something to do with the bourbon. This is similar...

    This is the best orange/vanilla scent I have found so far. On drydown, the orange is very much in the background, making this more of a gorgeous vanilla scent. An ultimate comfort scent for me.
