Hot Cocoa Holiday
Warm Vanilla Wonder
Warm, Caramel, & Nutty- I use this as a hair spray on wet or dry hair; just flip your head over and spray it above the back of your neck.
Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist
THE best cinnamon vanilla perfume there is. Smells absolutely incredible and layers really well.
Chai Épicé Eau de Parfum | Chai Spice Perfume
I use the roll-on version of this and throw it in any bag I have when I go out. The smell isn't super overwhelming and it gives a nice, soft vanilla touch. Lasts all day, definitely an essential.
Vanilla Musk fragrance Oil
Smells like coconut and chocolate. I've never wanted to eat a body wash so badly (don't do that). I've gotten so many compliments.
Restore Body Wash
Put a little near armpits and across stomach to ensure you smell good all day. Adds a nice, fresh, tropical safety net that isn't too overpowering for other fragrances.
Brazilian Bum Bum Cream
This one is THE warm, luxe vanilla. It’s rich with brown sugar, tonka, and a little amber. It’s not cupcake-y — it’s elegant, sensual vanilla that’s perfect for layering or date night.
Vanilla | 28
Yes, it’s just a lotion — but don’t sleep on this one. It’s whipped vanilla, sugar, and warm musk in one of the creamiest formulas ever. Perfect layering base for any warm vanilla perfume.
Shea Better Vanilla Cashmere Body Lotion
A warm vanilla base with touches of cappuccino and caramelized sugar. It’s soft and sweet but not in a childish way. Just creamy and mellow.
Vanilla Sky: Gourmand Scent
This is VS’s best vanilla, hands down. It’s creamy, warm, and a little musky.
Bare Vanilla Fragrance Mist
It's soft, sweet, and mellow, with a musky undertone that gives it that “warm skin” effect. Great for layering with bolder perfumes too.
Warm Vanilla Sugar Fine Fragrance Mist
Great for sensitive underarms and lasts long- shower in the morning & put it on as soon as you dry off for optimal use.
Aluminum Free Deodorant Real Coconut
Tropical Vanilla Flower
Has a nice, light fruity scent. Pairs nicely lighter perfumes for the summer time.

A beautiful and light tropical scent. Make hair smell nice and clean. I love the aesthetic of the bottles.

Pairs well with the shampoo and makes hair very soft.
island mist repairing conditioner
Adds a nice vanilla scent that layers very well and lasts all day. I use the roll on version and apply it to pressure points. Great size for throwing it in a bag when going out for the night.
Vanilla Musk fragrance Oil
Light and floral, layers really well. Smells like baby pink.
The Sanctuary Body Mist
Put a little near armpits and across stomach to ensure you smell good all day. Adds a nice, fresh, tropical safety net that isn't too overpowering for other fragrances.

The Sanctuary Collection - Fragrance Sets
I keep this in my travel bag & can always count on it to smell great. It's saved me in many situations when I go out to bars & clubs, and it's something I like to throw in for others when we go on trips! The mostly flat shape makes it perfect...

Irresistible - Givenchy
Pairs INCREDIBLY with Altar'd State Confidence Body Mist. When paired together it gives the vibe of the confident "it" girl- always the center of attention, and thrives in the spotlight.
Altar'd State Sanctuary Body Mist
Pair with Altar'd State Confidence Body Mist to smell like the Ultimate It Girl. Confident, Fierce, and a little bit Spicy.
Altar'd State Confidence Body Mist
I use this on my collarbones when I'm wearing a low cut shirt. It accentuates exactly what I want it to and doesn't have an overwhelming smell so I can wear it with anything.
Carolina Herrera Good Girl Leg Elixir Glitter Body Oil
Layers super well with any fragrance and perfect for throwing in a bag for a night out.

Put a little near armpits and across stomach to ensure you smell good all day. Adds a nice, fresh, tropical safety net that isn't too overpowering for other fragrances.

Scent lasts forever and pairs GREAT with the body scrub. You'll be smellin' like hot cocoa all day.
Dove Beauty Limited Edition Holiday Treat Body Wash - Hot Cocoa Swirl
If you want to smell like actual Swiss Miss with marshmallows, this is the one. It’s creamy, chocolatey, and cozy without being too heavy. You smell like the inside of a mug in the best way possible. Works great layered with vanilla or sweet musk.
Hot Cocoa & Cream Fine Fragrance Mist
Not strictly cocoa, but gives gourmand warmth that’s so addictive. It’s like a hot mocha latte with caramel drizzle — nutty, sweet, and totally edible-smelling. You will get compliments.
Cheirosa 71 Perfume Mist
A little more toasted and could layer beautifully with a chocolate note — think of it like marshmallow on top of your cocoa.
Victoria's Secret Pink Cozy Sugar Body Mist 8.4oz
A luxe grown-up hot cocoa. It doesn’t scream chocolate but smells like warm vanilla spiked with rum, amber, and just enough smokiness. Layer with B&BW’s Hot Cocoa & Cream and its chef’s kiss.
