Just picked a 3 oz bottle of this during the Hello Yellow sale for $1.25. Definitely a musky, ambery vanilla. When I sniffed it, I got transported back to high school, when I wore Coty's Vanilla Musk EVERY DAY. For those of you who can't find this during the sale and are unable to stock up, you may want to check out the Coty fragrance as a suitable alternative.

This was offered at Halloween and disappeared by mid-October. It smells like warm, slinky, heavily spiced vanilla. I detect some sort of musk and maybe amber. After weeks of trying to identify what it reminds me of, I think it might be a softer, sweeter Obsession. I wore this for fragrance on my wedding day in mid-October because that's how good it smells on me. As a lotion it's good; my only issue is the parabens. Since I use very few products that contain them, I make an exception for this lotion. If it could only be a permanent part of the store's offerings, I'd be ecstatic.

I am livid! I want more, more more of this lotion and there are none left anywhere. :( Something about this is like a sweet, natural musk...I can't quite describe it, but I'm obsessed and I only managed to get my hands on one lonely little 3 ounce bottle. I am seriously thinking of emailing BBW and asking if I could somehow, some way, no matter what it takes, get more. It doesn't smell like, but reminds me of a lotion I used to buy from Skindazzles years ago. I really hope they rename it and bring it back as a permanent scent. Gorgeous, warm, "close" fragrance that just makes you smell a little sweeter and more gorgeous.
Hmmmm...
*cries*

What a find!
I picked this up at the sale table at B&BW after checking out the new holiday line.
This is a rich, 'boozy' vanilla, almost like a bourbon vanilla milkshake. It's rich and heady, that must be the 'sinful' reference in the title. Perfect for fall and winter.
This is not a subtle, airy-fairy fragrance.
Love it; hope to grab some more before they are gone. continued >>

This lotion is delicious! It smells like vanilla and butter to me. The scent lingers a long time on my skin, but that's all I smell. I'm not getting that hint of something deeper other people are talking about, just smooth, yummy buttery vanilla. If you like vanilla lotions, pick this up.

Oh how I LOVE this buttery, sensual vanilla! I'd been hoping BBW would reincarnate the original Vanilla Bean Noel and they have in this! But they've added a slight, mysterious undertone. I can't tell if it's musk, sandalwood or patchouli, but it's awesome. It is my absolute favorite vanilla at the moment. I better stock up while they're on sale @ 2 for $5. Mmmmm....I just can't get enough. Love it!

After sitting here for the past two hours delighting in the smell of this lotion, I thought I'd come on and post a review. This is one of four (I presume LE) Halloween 2011 fragrances that BBW recently unveiled. The website describes it as "an indulgent blend of vanilla bean, whipped marshmallow and vanilla cream," which is a description that - however lush - doesn't do it justice, in my humble opinion.
This is definitely sweet, to be sure, with vanilla as the dominant note, but I catch a slight hint of something deeper and more sensual as well. In fact, what strikes me about this fragrance is that it smells (to me) like BBW's Black Currant Vanilla, but with the vanilla turned up and the currant dialed back slightly. While I'm a fan of the black currant vanilla, it's not a fragrance I ever wear during the day, as it's a little too strong for my taste, but I could definitely see wearing this lotion during the day (even to work), particularly as the weather starts to get cooler.
As of right now, this only comes in the body lotion, and knowing BBW, it'll disappear after this season...but hopefully not. In any case, I'd definitely recommend picking some up! (It's $5 and only available in a travel size at the moment.)
