What does Apricot Brandy smell like?

Warm fruit, a little sweetness, just enough depth to make it feel grown-up. Not candy. Not perfume. Something closer to a memory you didn't know you had.

Is Apricot Brandy a strong scent?

It's present without being loud. Warm and inviting — the kind of scent that draws people in rather than announcing itself across the room.

What's the story behind the Apricot Brandy scent?

It's a love letter. Inspired by the founders' father, who kept a bottle of apricot brandy for a rare sip on cold Alberta winter nights. This whole collection is their way of saying — we miss you, cheers.

Does the Apricot Brandy scent last throughout the day?

It lingers softly. Layer the wash with the cream and the scent builds — staying with you quietly, all day.

Is Apricot Brandy a seasonal scent or available year-round?

Year-round. Because the feeling of warmth doesn't belong to just one season.

Who is Apricot Brandy for?

Anyone who leans toward warmth over fresh, depth over light. The one who wants her bathroom to feel like a ritual, not a routine.

This lip balm is wonderful, I keep one in every bag. The vanilla is my daughters favorite.

Perfect!

This is a beautiful product. The scent is warm and not overwhelming. The viscosity of the oil is not messy, nourishing and the absorption is on point. I really appreciate the size because it's perfect for travel and every day use.

Also the Vanilla Effect scent is perfection. I need it in every product variety.

Thank you for creating this!

Love this scent it one of my favorites ! And it helps my dry winter hands so much, thetcrack and bleed so badly in the cold this seems to be the only cream that heals it and stops it. It really is an instant hand repair!!

The best

What can I say? I can't live without this stuff! Especially in the dry Winters! My skin is naturally parched, itchy and even flaky, but with Barefoot Venus products, I'm practically dewy! The vanilla effect instant hand repair is among the top products I keep stocked! It truly transforms my skin! I'm soft, comfortable, and smell delicious.
I'm hooked.

That Vanilla Effect magic never gets old. So happy it’s doing exactly what it’s meant to do for your skin.

Vanilla Effect Hand Repair

I have always been a big fan of Vanilla Shake scented products, although I still like the products, I am very disappointed in the new scent. I buy the products as much for the scent as the actual product.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and for loving Vanilla Shake over the years. We did retire that name and reintroduce the fragrance as The Vanilla Effect, giving it a refreshed scent and a little extra warmth along the way.
