First impressions matter, and this lotion delivers! The Bare Vanilla scent is a dreamy mix of whipped vanilla and soft cashmere—like a cozy hug in a bottle. It’s not overpowering, just a subtle, sweet whisper that lingers all day.

The texture? Thick but not greasy. It sinks into my skin FAST, leaving it silky smooth without that sticky residue. Perfect for rushed mornings when I need moisture STAT. My winter-cracked hands? Gone after a week of use!

Pro tip: Layer it with the matching mist (I did!). The fragrance lasts through my 9-to-5 grind AND my evening workout. Got three compliments from coworkers—one asked if I was wearing high-end perfume!

Worth the splurge? Absolutely. Compared to my $50 Versace lotion (that nobody could smell), this is a steal. Only con? The pump lid can be tricky—nearly launched it across the bathroom first try! 5/5 will repurchase forever.
