About Nirvana Bourbon

Nirvana Bourbon by Elizabeth and James is an intriguing perfume that captures the spirit of adventurous elegance with its intoxicating blend of warm and woody notes. Being a modern day release from the highly acclaimed brand Elizabeth and James, this particular scent is the very personification of the daring and chic manner of living that Nirvana perfumes are known for. The Nirvana Bourbon scent takes you to a different time and place by the American frontier, an invitation to danger and the beauty of things that never go out of style; therefore, it is inspired by the wild of the American West.

Fragrance Family:

Amber Woody

Scent Type:

Warm, Woody, Spicy

Notes:

Nirvana Bourbon opens with the tantalizing and sweet warmth of vanilla bourbon, setting a rich and inviting tone. As the perfume evolves, the core of oakwood transmits a smoky and earthy intricacy that intensifies its alluring quality. Completing the base, tuberose notes add a cream and floral finish that alleviates the strength, thus, the scent comes to a unique balance of the elements which is deep and rich.

Suggested Use

Apply Nirvana Bourbon on pulse points like the wrists, neck, and behind the ears for a long-lasting presence that captivates throughout the day. For a more intense fragrance journey, layer it after a shower on moist skin; the warmth will amplify its aromatic complexity. Suitable for both day and evening wear, this perfume complements those special occasions where elegance and boldness collide.

Hey, everyone. Katherine here, and today I'll be reviewing nirvana bourbon by Elizabeth and James, the fashion label founded by the Olsen twins, named after their remaining siblings. Bourbon follows Nirvana Black and Nirvana White, and I really like its simplicity. The note profile consists only of oak, tuberose, and vanilla, a combination that is fantastic for fall and winter nightwear. And its softness makes it an excellent skin scent. And the bottle also makes a really chic display piece. That's all for now. I hope you enjoyed this review. And please don't forget to follow FragranceX on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat.

FAQ for Nirvana Bourbon

What does Nirvana Bourbon Perfume smell like?

Nirvana Bourbon by Elizabeth and James is a rich and warm fragrance that captures the essence of sophistication and allure. The scent travels start with an elegant combination of oakwood and then to a wonderful heart of vanilla bourbon. This duet is mixed with a sexy tuberose note, adding it a creamy and flowery facet. Overall, it is the warmth, the sensuality, and the elegance that this combination evokes, such as a cozy evening in front of a fireplace.

What does bourbon perfume smell like?

Bourbon-themed perfumes, like Nirvana Bourbon, are characterized by their warm, rich, and slightly smoky aroma. Frequently, they are enriched with the notes of oak, vanilla, and spices to form a luxurious and comforting fragrance experience. These scents bring together the idea of drinking a premium bourbon whiskey with a combination of seductive smell and a silky finish. Quite the contrary, they are mostly used by who are into tougher, more complex aromas; thus, bourbon perfumes carry a feeling of elegance and eternal beauty. Nor is it lost on the wearer that they are artfully combining with the sultry aroma and a whiskey-like silky finish that exotic spices help create.

What are the notes in Nirvana Bourbon Perfume?

Nirvana Bourbon features a compelling trio of notes that work harmoniously to create its distinctive scent. Top Notes: Oakwood—adds a subtly woody depth. Heart Notes: Vanilla Bourbon—gives the fragrance warmth and sweetness. Base Notes: Tuberose—infuses a floral, creamy undertone to the blend. This combination makes it a truly unique and alluring fragrance.

Is Nirvana Black discontinued?

While Elizabeth and James has developed several fragrances, including Nirvana Black, it is important to check with authorized retailers for availability as product lines can change. The brand typically communicates the news about the discontinuation through the official channel.

What does Elizabeth and James Nirvana smell like?

The Elizabeth and James Nirvana line is celebrated for its unique and luxurious fragrances that blend classic and innovative elements.

The perfumes are designed to represent a juxtaposition of being classic and modern, attracting particularly the people that are into deep and complex fragrance notes.

What season is Nirvana Bourbon Perfume best for?

The warm and comforting aroma of the cozy fragrance is an ideal match with cold weather, giving a feeling of a comforting and enveloping scent. The luxurious and rich nature of the fragrance is the reason why it is appropriate for both daytime and nighttime outfits in these seasons.

Where do you apply Nirvana Bourbon Perfume?

For the best longevity and projection, apply Nirvana Bourbon perfume to your pulse points. These are the Flexion lines, the neck area, the behind area of your ears, and your inner elbows. The fact that the skin is warm in these parts will make it possible for the perfume to evacuate throughout the day.

How long does Nirvana Bourbon Perfume last?

Nirvana Bourbon has a lasting power typical of an Eau de Parfum, offering a wear time between about 6 to 8 hours. The longevity depends on the person's body chemistry, the application methods, and also the environmental conditions.

Aged Sophistication in a Flask-Shaped Bottle

My quest for Fall/Winter fragrances has been successful. I must say I am impressed with this scent. It has a warm-honeyed oak essence infused with a light soft bourbon-vanilla note. Tuberose is included as a fragrance note, but I am not getting any of it. Nirvana Bourbon cures well with my skin's

chemistry just like an aged wooden barrel of liquor--velvet, smooth, and cozy. The dry down's sensory appeal is like sipping bourbon laced with vanilla from a brandy snifter. It comes in a sleek crimson red or cognac colored flacon that resembles a flask. Strategically designed to match the name with the fragrance.

Not a Fan

Was not a fan of this perfume. It's very dry, has no sweetness to it and, on my skin, it smells like a woody barbeque. I like smokiness, but it smells like mesquite was used to create this effect so it has a barbeque reminiscience to it. I would recommend this more for men rather than women,

however, I wouldn't even like it on a man.

Smells amazing!

I use almost every day. A warm delicious fragrance that lasts. I bought the tester because it was a bit cheaper - I care about what's in the bottle, not what the bottle looks like. Delicous!

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Lovely woody scent

Just had my little sampler of this perfume, and I'm already in love ! That fresh woody scent is very alluring and reminds me of freshly cut cedarwood and a warm sunny day in a pine forest. Being an outdoorsy person, this is just me. Yes, this scent is maybe quite maskuline but I think it works well for both men and women.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Not a safe blind buy

Not a safe blind buy. Slightly boozy, but mostly I got smoked ham out of this. No tuberose, no vanilla. Strongly recommend sampling before buying.

Outdoor masculine scent

I bought a rollerball of this to try and while I liked it a lot it was to masculine for me and I gave it for my husband to wear. It is perfect for him since he likes to wear fragrances that are not strong and stay close to the skin. I like to wear perfume loud and proud so this just wouldn't have been for me even if it wasn't so masculine, since it wears very intimate. While saying that this is a great fragrance to buy for a husband or a boyfriend because really lady's do we want our mans fragrance to overpower what we are wearing? No we don't! So again great for the special man in your life.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I LOVE this perfume. It's so hard to find in Canada and when you are able to find it, it's outrageously overpriced. The only negative I have is that shipping took a very very long time and I paid for express shipping.

My holy grail Autumn Perfume

I wear this in the fall… it's an intoxicating warm, woodsy Vanilla which is what I look for since I do not like straight up sweet vanilla scents. It doesn't have an overpowering projection but it's inviting. Smells like an expensive perfume but since it's now discontinued in retail it can be purchased for a great price… my advise is to stock up!!

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Different

I bought the rollerball to try this fragrance. I'm so happy I did. Nirvana Bourbon is very different and I think a man could also wear this fragrance. I think there may be just a hint of tobacco. I love this perfume because it lasts. It's somewhat strong, a little spicy, and very sultry. This will be in my collection.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

My new signature scent

The perfume I've been using for years is no longer being made & I've been on the hunt for a new one. I have had terrible luck! Then I ordered this. Moody, sensual, intense but not overpowering. Reminiscent of a dark panelled library with hints of woodsmoke, pipe tobacco & of course bourbon. This is my new signature scent for sure.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Yes I definitely would purchase again

Lately I've been loving a lot of the men's fragrances but still not wanting anything too masculine and I had a men's body wash that was bourbon vanilla and I thought wow this is not real masculine if I could find a perfume like it I would get it so I came upon the Nirvana Bourbon purchased the sample vials and really liked it so I got the 30ml size and I must say I'm enjoying it

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Lovely fragrance

This fragrance has a warm and light quality with a hint of vanilla. Sophisticated and pleasant it is a perfectly modern feminine smell without being flowery or overly sweet. Not a complicated smell yet not something you'll get bored of. The only drawback is it doesnt stay very long. This may be my nose though. Overall a great but on this site. Its priced less than half of one of the beauty giants price and this us a relatively new fragrance

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
