by Bath & Body Works
Sweet Whiskey by Bath & Body Works is a warm, boozy vanilla fragrance with smoky amber and red berry accords that create a cozy, gourmand scent reminiscent of a night by the fire. It opens with a sweet, slightly synthetic vanilla and berry burst, drying down into a smooth, wooden-amber base with a distinct smoky whiskey note that gives it depth. The scent is unisex, with a comforting, slightly masculine-leaning warmth that appeals to those who appreciate rich, layered scents. Though a body mist with moderate longevity, it adheres well to clothing and projects moderately, making it ideal for layering or as a room spray. It is particularly well suited to colder weather and nighttime wear, with many users finding it perfect for autumn and winter evenings. Users consistently report that it works beautifully when layered with other fragrances, especially Burberry Her, Commodity Milk, or Valentino Donna Born in Roma, enhancing its depth and longevity. Some compare it to discontinued favorites like Bonfire Bash or The Naughty Remix by Britney Spears — a sweet, smoky vanilla with a boozy core. The scent is balanced, with amber and smoke preventing it from becoming too cloying, making it stand out among simpler gourmands. Despite its popularity, not all users find it appealing — some describe it as sharp or synthetic, especially in the opening. A few find the nose too heavy or unbalanced, although most agree it’s a step above typical BBW offerings. The overwhelming sentiment is of satisfaction, with many reporting it as their favorite BBW body mist.
