This scent is so enticing..I get a lot of coconut from this so I feel its great for summer nights. I'd wear it at any time of the year and it stays on pretty long on my clothes. On my skin it doesn't last as long or maybe I just don't notice it after a while. I still love it though :)

One of my favorite BBW scents. I've been through about 4 bottles and have 4 in my stash as well. It's a very sweet warm scent, exactly as BBW describes! I prefer to wear this in the colder months because the brown sugar scent gets a bit too heavy for summertime.

This is just amazing. It's a very unique scent; pretty, exotic, and cozy, but not overpowering. It starts out with a nice earthy fig note, and quickly mellows into a warm, but bright vanilla-caramel goodness with just a hint of fig still in the background.

Perfect for fall and winter, but I think this would be just fine in the summer and spring months because it's just so pretty! More of a sophisticated scent, so I'd recommend this more for ladies in the 20s and above. Give this a try!

I had this body splash 4 years ago and actually went through the WHOLE bottle (I never do that). I thought it was discontinued but the other day I walked into B&BW at a mall I never go to and there it was! I bought it without hesitation. I like that it doesn't smell as cheap as I would expect a body splash to smell- it's not too fruity or sweet. I just love this fragrance so much. Oh and fir the lasting power, not as long as a perfume obviously but I find that it hold up better than most body splashes. I don't mind re-spraying occasionally.

I got this at the Hello Yellow sale, and out of all of the classics that they had displayed, this one smelled the best. It's definately a fall fragrance, it doesn't fare well in the summer-the current season-as it can be slightly cloying in the humid heat, but I'm looking forward to wearing it for fall (I actually wish it was fall now because I really want to experience it all-over). The smell is earthy-sweet, which is what gives it its sensuous touch. Oh, and the comparisons to Ralph Lauren Hot really annoys me-this smells nothing like that overbearingly, sticky-sweet fragrance. The only thing similar about them is the maple note, and the similarity ends there.
Edit:
I don't think I care for this scent anymore, fall or not, this scent is cloying and annoying. I'm also starting to think that it's too "earthy/mature-smelling" for me. Maybe I'll use it as a room spray.

I think this smells awesome! I just got this at the semi annual sale, and it's sooo good! Of course it is only a body mist, so the lasting power is very little, but I got the lotion to layer it with. I will definately buy this when they bring it back again. Such a warm, delicious scent.

liking this so much was a surprise. it doesnt smell cheap but rather rich, sweet and long lasting. it doesnt remain flat. i own Ralph Lauren HOT and mist this on my hair when i wear that fragrance. i feel it layers well with that. i only wear this combination when it gets cold. it would be too much for the warmer months.

I can't even begin to describe how much I love this scent!!! My only gripe is the terrible lasting power on me. I like gourmand type fragrances but I don't want something that smells like I rubbed myself down with buttercream. The fits the bill nicely. I think the fig stops the brown sugar from being too sweet. And it's not really a fruity scent either which is nice too. It's a nice scent to wear when you want to smell nice but not blow people away with your perfume (a la Angel). But, it is only body splash and not an edp. Wonderfully warm and cozy. A good scent for the fall/winter months. Once again, something I really like has been discontinued (or at least I think it has). I also have this in a wallflower which is divine.

Love brown sugar & fig! This was my favorite BBW scent for a long long time, and I still love it to death. It's hard to describe but just amazing...i get compliments on it all the time, and I do agree with another reviewer who said it smells like RL HOT-it really does. Yummy! The great thing about this particular splash is that it seriously lasts as long as you would think the EDT would last...this is the strongest splash out there and thank god for that :)
<3 love bsf

I love this yummy scent. Scent is fig and reminds me of RL Hot. I like it alot, its sexy and warm. great for winter. I have the splash and belive it or not it does a good job. doesn't last all day but its a splash, I love putting it on right before bedtime, make me have wonderful happy dreams.. Cotton Candy like but not, fig can't really describe it... Love it.

I love Brown Sugar & Fig body lotion but dislike Brown Sugar & Fig body splash. I love the rich, sweet, slightly fruity smell but the splash ends up smelling nothing like that on me. I don't know exactly what it smells like ... but it's something along the line of somewhat burnt rubber.
In general, I'm not a huge fan of Bath & Body Works' body splashes due to the strong alcohol smell. However, I still use splashes sometimes in the summer. This particular splash, on me, is unpleasant.
I do understand that sometimes body chemistry plays a role, so perhaps this will work for someone else. For me - I will look to give this away and repurchase only the lotion. I may also try the EDT.

I've been eyeing this for years because I'm a vanilla-scent fan. But I was always hesitant to give it a try because I felt it was gonna give me a headache, so I stuck with the regular favorites (Sensual Amber & Mango Mandarin). Yesterday tho, I purchased Warm Vanilla Sugar because I thought it was just gonna be the same scent with that of The Body Shop's. When I took a sniff after paying for it, I realized it's not the same. So I went back to the sales girl and impulsively exchanged it for Brown Sugar & Fig. Oh boy, I'm glad I didn't regret doing that. I love love the Brown Sugar & Fig scent! I get yummy vanilla notes, the kind I like. And it's the type of fragrance I could dig my nose in and feel fuzzy all over -- such a comforting scent.

My mother loves this fragrance- it's pretty much the only one she wears. She hates anything I wear, so we're at a bit of a standoff! I will say that this has incredible staying power for a splash. I have to agreed with the reviewer below, it's almost as if there is something rotting in it. I get the same nauseating reaction to Tom Ford's Black Orchid- dried fruits, something rotten, with an ashtray note. No thanks!

This is the best scent ever! Japanese Cherry Blossom was always my number 1, and this is now tied with it. If you love warm and sweet scents, this is perfect.
