Mix Bar Vanilla Bourbon Eau de Parfum
I was surprised at how wonderful this smells and the quality. It lasts about 6 hours and is a wonderful substitute for Kai Ali Vanilla 28. The Mix Bar Vanilla Bourbon actually has more interesting base notes and it smells expensive! Only at Target 1.7 ounce for 20.00. What an amazing discovery.

Don't Sleep on Her
Better than many of the over-priced and over-hyped vanilla forward fragrances out there. Not super girlie, but very womanly.

Vanilla Bourbon is the perfect name for this. Great for layering or on its on. Good longevity and projection.

Vanilla with a nice grounded-ness to it.
I love this in the fall.

Redbull?
Very sweet, would've preferred less of that and more of the whole, you know, vanilla bourbon thing. But it's an overall enjoyable scent for sure, I just don't find myself reaching for it incredibly often. It's not very complex, but that's just an observation and not a con to me, especially considering the affordable price point.

My friend and I both own it, and without knowing she was wearing it once, I commented that she smelled just like Redbull. I wore it to go see her another day and she asked if I was wearing it, of which I confirmed, and she remarked it smelled better on me than it did on her. So perhaps that is something to look out for lol. Your body chemistry may make this smell like Redbull on you... Who knows.

Left this unused for a year, appreciating it more this second time around.
I bought this at the beginning of my fragrance obsession journey, when I was looking for the "perfect" vanilla, and I initially loved it. And the price! But as I accumulated more and more decants, I realized that this was a bit more masculine + woody than I preferred, and it's been collecting dust on my shelf for the last year or so.

In decluttering some of my older, unused perfumes, I decided to give this one one last try before listing it on Mercari and... tbh... I like it again! I wore it to bed last night, and resprayed before walking my dog this morning, and it's honestly enjoyable! Perhaps with time, the sweetness has taken the forefront - it doesn't seem as masculine to me at this point. You get that peppery opening but it dries down to a lovely, sweet, boozy vanilla. Absolutely a great choice for these colder months. For sure seems like a more "mature" fragrance, which is surprising given the price and that you buy it at Target. A wonderful, cozy bedtime scent. Perfect for working from home, or snuggling up and reading a book.

Average vanilla
This scent is a pretty average vanilla boozy scent with a hint of bergamot . I have the sample size that I enjoy using and layering but once my sample is done, I won't be buying another one. Especially since it's only in the States and I'm in Canada.

A standard vanilla-forward gourmand with a touch of spice.

Definitely vanilla, but mostly bourbon. The smokiness in dry-down veered into a darker, somewhat-plastic territory for me.

rich and sweet. A deep scent but not a particularly complex one. Mainly just a sweet dark vanilla. 6.5/10

Honestly you get exactly what the name suggests, a bourbon vanilla scent. It's very sweet. It is very good for fall or winter.

The name is apt, it's a nice boozy vanilla. Ultimately not for me, started making me feel as though I'd spilled a drink on myself.
