Give me a thick body butter but also make it smell amazing and make skin glowy with shimmer. If that’s what you asked for, then Fenty Skin Butta Drop in Vanilla delivers. Limited Edition and amazing. This body butter has my favourite texture ever. It’s slightly waxy when it sets but it also melts in your hands into an oil. It’s smooth and has just the right amount of fragrance. If you use it on your body, you’ll scent the whole room, but if you’re wearing it on your hands then it’ll be just enough for you and people around you. Yes, it’s greasy, oily and that’s the point, it’s also thick and moisturizing and perfect for winter, or this false spring. Use it any time, but best used right after a shower on damp skin.
Like her, it’s strong and confident, sweet but not saccharine. Just like her, it’s responsible for a few headaches but that could be my fault for overdoing it. They’re both incredible in their ability to reach out and wrap everyone in their warmth, spicy without any bite, to be enjoyed with a sense of humour.
Habanita is originally from the 1920’s and is kind of a smoky powdery vetiver vanilla. I had been spraying from a decant before I got this bottle, and I think my decant smells a bit different, stronger, and that’s ok. The original Habanita vibe is still there and that’s what I wanted, and I really do love the frieze on the bottle so I wanted to have that too. The bottles were designed by Rene Lalique, and frieze was popular at that time because Europeans were having a fascination with ancient Greece and Rome. Lalique gave the people what they wanted and friezes show up in his other work too, including other perfume bottles he designed. If you’re interested in knowing more, check out
