I cannot detect any vanilla or almond scents whatsoever. I too was hoping for a sweeter bakery smell, but this just wasn't it. Will probably return and try to get the unscented (which I ordered for my mom and wish I had ordered for myself too!). I love Josie's products and will keep ordering more, but may just stick with unscented in the future....
My experience was the same as your's. I was hoping for something similar to the Perlier White Almond scent but, for me, there was no almond or vanilla. It was like a trip to a hippie incense and oil shop from the 60s. Definitely patchouli oil. This one was also an instant asthma and headache trigger so it's going back.

I could hardly smell anything,I was dissapointed ,to me it was very much unscented
I was expecting it to be like Perlier's wonderful almond scent.

I got mine today and I can't decide if I really like it or not. It has a little of a green herbally note to me with some spice. I wish it was more like it was described. i don't hate it, so I will see how it works.

Thank you, doglvr, for responding to my plea. I'm actually interested in the one with the scent (hopefully, patchouli-like).

I'm sending mine back as I don't like the smell either. It's certainly not almond nor vanilla. More of a spicy smell-like a man's cologne.
I wish Josie would name her body butters more accurately as it costs money to keep sending them back. And most of the time the body butters has a huge amount missing from it. The face butter is missing about a third of the product.

The smell on mine was so faint I thought it might be the unscented. When I put it on, I could smell it - I think it's more almond than vanilla, but I don't smell patchouli. I wish I did, since I like it!
