Bombshell Bronze

This is absolutely gorgeous. Without a doubt, my favourite summer scent I've tried this year. This little beauty is practically screaming, "Book a holiday immediately!" Unfortunately, my future husband insists on being sensible and saying things like, "We have a wedding to pay for, Jasmin." Spoilsport. (He's right, but still.) This is such a juicy, sexy, sultry summer fragrance. Incredibly feminine and completely transportive. I get ripe mango, warm sun-baked sand, and what feels like a creamy vanilla-coconut cocktail lingering in the background during the dry down. I don't have much experience with tanning oil, considering my skin tone could best be described as alabaster with a hint of Victorian child, but if tanning oil smells anything like this, perhaps I've been missing out. Everything about this scent feels glamorous. It makes me picture myself dripping in gold jewellery, wearing a tiny dress, watching the sunset with a giant tequila sunrise in hand and absolutely nowhere important to be. This is sunshine, holidays, and confidence bottled up in a very pretty package. I would buy it again in a heartbeat. ☀️

I was terrified to blind buy this bc it says here the main accord is white floral, but this isn't floral to me at all! I get mostly coconut and mango. It took me a total of 10 seconds to KNOW this was gonna be a favorite. This kinda reminds me of snif coco shimmy, not the same but similar enough that I immediately thought of it. If the notes scare you I would still give this one a shot!! I really love this! The lasting power is crazy good for a VS perfume... Super impressed with this perfume, they did it right this time! Edit: I started out with just the body mist to try this out... and now I have 2 body mists, a travel spray, & the 3.4oz perfume. I usually don't go crazy and buy everything but this is probably my favorite summer perfume of all time.😍

VS perfumes usually never seem to last on my skin or clothes, but Bombshell Bronze is not one! I’m a sucker for the suntan lotion type of scents (think Vacation by Arquiste, Missy by By / Rosie Jane, At the Beach by BBW) so I was beyond pleased when I smelled this at my local VS store because this has the similar DNA that those fragrances have; there is no green, earthy dry-down in Bombshell Bronze, which I have detected in a lot of other fragrances that have notes of a “tanning lotion” type of accord in them. After 8 sprays on my hoodie, I could still smell this perfume a few days later, so this one lasts! Projection is above average, to my nose. So if you’re looking for a summer staple that’s giving pure vacation vibes, test this one out!

Ever since Bombshell Sundrenched in 2022 I really look forward to the next summer to see what VS comes up with! I enjoyed Isles, Escape and last year's trio Santorini, St. Tropez & Amalfi. But I have been longing for Sundrenched to come back and I don't know about anyone else, but Bronze is almost identical to Sundrenched and I LOVE IT!! I WANT THAT SUNTAN OIL SCENT!! I bought it the minute it was available online. Already I have gotten sooo many compliments! I already bought my second bottle as a back up!

This is my new daily go-to! It's definitely heavy on the coconut scent but I personally love it. I like that its not too overpowering and its an easy to like scent. I would say most people would stick to summertime for wearing this perfume. I like layering this scent with other perfumes and body sprays just to give it some more notes other than straight up coconut! Overall love it!
