Bath & Body Works Viva Vanilla is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Viva Vanilla settles into a heart of Plum, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. Bath & Body Works's Viva Vanilla carries a Statement verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag, to put it mildly. Some rave about its luxurious, grown-up vanilla, while others are left gagging at a 'hot iron' or 'stinky bomb' scent. Definitely a 'try before you buy' situation to see if you get the good or bad batch.

While some find it good for everyday wear, the strong, often heavy vanilla and amber notes mean it's best reserved for evening or colder weather. It's too bold and potentially polarising for office wear, but perfect for a date night where its sensual warmth can shine.

About

Viva Vanilla opens with a rich, boozy plum that quickly gives way to a decadent, smoky vanilla heart. The amber base grounds the sweetness, preventing it from becoming overly gourmand and adding a sophisticated warmth. It settles into a dark, creamy vanilla with hints of spice.
