Bare Fragrance

This is such a sweet light clean scent. It reminds me of taking a shower after laying on the beach all day--it is the smell of squeaky clean sun warmed skin. I love it on its own but also for layering with other Esas scents.

Growing up in sunny Florida, Bare somehow manages to bottle what it feels like to reminisce on the nostalgia of my sun-kissed, beachside childhood and turns it into a fragrance. Astounding. It's a beautiful natural scent that is both musky and slightly floral.

I give it a 4 because the dry-down is slightly more floral and less musky-sweet than I would like, although it could just be my body chemistry. But it's still a gorgeous scent and I've just purchased my 3rd bottle! Highly recommend :)

I like the scent very much. What I dont like is that it doesnt last very long.

I started with the scent discovery packs - I wanted a non-toxic perfume but am super sensitive to heavy scents. My two favorites are Bare and Gardenia & Lily, but Bare was the clear winner! It's so light and clean, just enough to make someone lean in closer to get a whiff. Perfection!

This is the perfect finishing touch to an outfit with an oversized cream cashmere sweater, a silk camisole, wide-leg blue denim, and hair slicked back into a ballerina bun. It’s effortless, fresh, clean, and sensual—the ultimate clean girl scent.

It opens with a light, sweet floral note of gardenia, while a hint of aromatic sage peeks through to add freshness and depth. The orris lends a soft powderiness that gives the whole scent a delicate, fluffy texture—like a whisper of silk.

The drydown is soft, sweet, and lightly musky—and I’m genuinely impressed that Esas was able to create such a musky effect using only botanicals, with no synthetic aroma chemicals. It’s a testament to their craft.

This scent is versatile, elevated, and intimately wearable—easily worthy of signature scent status.

Projection and sillage are a solid arm’s length or more, and longevity is excellent: about 6 hours with presence, followed by a soft skin scent that lingers for several more hours.

I absolutely love this scent. People have come into my house, I don't even have the candle going just in case, but the cap is off so the scent can still be noticeable, and everyone loves it and asks where they get it. I've had more at home of it and decided to gift them. Yes everyone has different preferences but that alone doesn't call for a lesser review if the scents aren't their favorite; reviews should be for how the product arrived, how effective it is, because different scents please people in different ways. Every single time I've ordered from ESAS, their products have arrived in pristine packaging, nothing ever broke, and I've always used their candles down to the very last light and parfum down to the very last drop :) There are a couple of ingredients I personally don't enjoy, but even if I don't, the way they smell just so well put together has me really impressed with their calculation of chemistry for each product. Although, I pretty much enjoy every single product here and it's not something easy to find in a company :)

Obviously a well made and quality scent, but I simply couldn’t get over the grandma feel of Bare. Of course everyone’s nose is going to experience it differently, but I didn’t find anything about this scent to be particularly clean or sweet. If you’re into the grandma-ish scent you will probably love it but don’t go for this one if not.

Love the scent… have to reapply midday
