The Newest Fall Gourmand Fragrance That's Turning Heads!

Alright, let’s talk about 20 Bourbon Brûlée, because this fragrance is quickly becoming the one everyone’s buzzing about. Stephanie Ledda has gone full-on cozy for this one, with a blend of whiskey warmth, caramel sweetness, and just a hint of smokiness that makes you think of chilly nights by the fire. 20 Bourbon Brûlée is practically dessert—but with a sophisticated spin.

In her own words, Ledda wanted 20 Bourbon Brûlée to capture a moment, a cozy fireside evening with a little bourbon kick. And she’s nailed it! From the first spray, it’s all about balance: there’s Italian bergamot and juicy black plum for that initial hit of brightness, which melts into Brazilian tonka bean for a sweet, nutty aroma. But here’s where it gets interesting: enter coconut milk and heliotrope, giving the whole experience a creamy, dreamy texture before the whiskey and vanilla bourbon steal the show. It’s a scent so delectable that you'll be left longing for more long after it's gone.

The Buzz: Reddit Reacts

Reddit’s FemFragLab community can’t get enough of this one, with fans calling it “Jessica Rabbit in a bottle”—yes, really. 

Reviewers are comparing it to classics like By the Fireplace and Jazz Club but say 20 Bourbon Brûlée leans a little sweeter, a little softer, and definitely more “wearable” for those who don’t want a heavy smokiness. It’s a hit for people who love the coziness of those fragrances without diving too deep into campfire territory.

One reviewer raved about the whiskey note, saying it’s “fluffy” rather than overpowering, blending beautifully with caramel and coconut for a softer, more rounded scent. And let’s not forget the dry-down, where things get even better: amberwood, cedar, and white musk add just enough depth to keep it grounded. This is definitely the kind of scent that’ll have you catching warm, sweet whiffs all day long.

A Perfect Fall Staple, Your Way

Whether you want to keep this for yourself or grab it as a holiday gift (the packaging’s gorgeous), 20 Bourbon Brûlée comes in a few sizes: a 1.7-ounce eau de parfum ($98) and a travel spray ($36), so you can bring your cozy aroma with you everywhere. And if you’re looking to save a bit, Ledda’s offering subscription options and even a bundle builder for the true fans.

So, if you’re ready to smell like fall in the most luxurious way, 20 Bourbon Brûlée is live on Ledda’s page. Get ready to bask in those warm, whiskey-sweet scents—this one’s a keeper.
