Bombshell Forever

I'm betting this is another limited edition because it's a flanker of the original Bombshell. I am really liking this one. For me, it's a lot better than the original. I'm wearing it in cold weather, but I bet it'll do fabulous in warmer weather. It's fresh and slightly sweet. This is my third Bombshell flanker, and I like this one the most. I still don't have the original Bombshell, as I wasn't super won over by it. These flankers though always seem to be an improvement on the original, so I keep buying them. The bottle is one of plainest of this line though, I think they could have done better in this regard. Something to note too: I had TWO different bottles break upon opening. The metal clamp on the bottle(the one just beneath the spray nozzle) got pulled off and stuck up inside the cap(wouldn't come out), leaving both bottles leaky and useless. VS is great about returns though, and third time is the charm, although I'm being way careful every time I pull the cap off. Edit: I love this so much that I just bought a back up bottle at the Semi Annual sale. I remembered to check the bottle before leaving the store, as this perfume has issues with the metal clamp, causing the bottle to leak. I got lucky, and the bottle I bought was okay this time. Yay!

I didn't peg myself as a fan of fruity perfumes but this one is so nice! It's got this juicy, fruity and floral pop that's playful and feminine but not overpowering, paired with a warm, earthy base that's mellow and sophisticated. Seems like a great pre-summer release. After only a few uses, I think this may be my new signature. I was using DKNY Pure and Givenchy Amarige, looking for something warm without being either sticky sweet or an acrid oriental. I would compare this Bombshell Forever with Givenchy's Ange Ou Demon Le Secret, but perhaps a bit more relaxed and "summery." It's got a similar fruity note, but in Ange I find there's a hint of sour citrus while in Forever it's more a tart 'n sweet flavor. It's one of the first perfumes I have thought of describing as really tasty without seeming fake like some Bodycology spray. This one lets you have fun being a woman while still being able to be a lady. Really a great perfume, really glad I got to try it. I definitely recommend it!

OMG I forgot how much of a banger this flanker is!!! I used to rock this heavy back in the day and bought a new bottle to go down memory lane and UGH!!! I agree with others this is it’s own perfume, it stands alone but it does smell like it belongs in the Bombshell family if that makes sense. I definitely get lavender in this one but it’s a very soft sexy lavender. It is fresh with a very slight fruitiness in the background. Maybe I’m biased because I used to use this one but this one is the epitome of old school sexy Victorias Secret. I feel fresh and sexy wearing this! IMO this can easily be an all year round type of perfume to have in a collection. Now that I think about it, if I’m remembering correctly don’t hold me to it but this smells almost exactly like LOVE PINK by VS PINK. The one in the neon pink bottle... I loved that one too!

According to reviews here I thought that Bombshell Forever is definitely a masculine scent mixed with original Bombshell. As I love VS frags, I "have to add" also Bombshell Forever into my collection. This one is a big suprise for me, unexpected beauty. I really don't see anything masculine about it (I bet, lavender can make that feeling for other people's noses?). It's very nice summer scent, boysenberry and lavender with light woody undertone. I don't find it to be very similar to original Bombshell, maybe a little bit. I will use it during this summer and definitely will buy one more bottle, I'm enjoying it more than original Bombshell :)

This scent is so amazing! I received this as a gift from my best friend and I was so ecstatic. It is one of their more mature scents so if you like to stick with the teeny bop sugary headache scents, then I wouldn't recommend it. But it basically [to me] smells like the inside of Hollister with added floral notes. It's kinda tips over onto the masculine side though but it definitely keeps its feminine quality. I would wear this as an evening scent because of its sort of spicier flare that it gives me, but totally recommend it!

This perfume is absolutely my signature scent. It smells quite strong but not overpowering, it lasts long too. I definitely love the lavender smell. So when you spray first, a fruity(because boysenberry)-lavender scent comes out. At the dry down, the lavender scent gets lighter, with a little bit woody on it. This perfume is so perfect! And the bottle colour is so unique yet pretty.

very nice scent - fruity clean sexy , not long lasting (doesn't matter) , most of the perfumes I use don't last long on me ,, this one lasts maybe 2-3 hrs hardly , i always carry my perfume in bag to freshen up during the day. I prefer this one over original bombshell , because its less harsh. Original bombshell smells sharp and a bit acidic on me.

It doesn't smell like original "Bombshell" in my opinion. I smell citrus...lots of! If you like citrus-ey perfumes you'll like this! Sort of reminds me of "Light Blue" except Light Blue's wood notes can be smelled and in "ForeverBombshell" I can barely smell wood notes

Love love love!! Opens fruity and sweet, almost citrusy, but definitely berry. Dries down into a gingery-lavendar herbal delight!! Perfect for winter. Great longevity btw... literally lasted all day!

If you like the original bombshell, you've gotta try this! There's a great chance that you will enjoy it! Plus it has better longevity than the original. Clean, uplifting, fresh, and confident.

Better than bombshell. That's all I can say. Some people so in love with bombshell but I am in love with this one. The smell is similar with bombshell but this is better!

I love "Bombshell Forever", something about it is slighty masculine, but that's why I love it! Only a confident bad ass woman could pull this one off!

This smells related to the original bombshell. I'm not the biggest fan of Bombshell so I find this a lot better. If you take Bombshell and add a whole bunch of sour berries, you'd get something like this. The similarity to Bombshell is strongest at the beginning but as this develops, it becomes sweeter. I wasn't sure if I liked this because I don't really need another Bombshell flanker that's similar to the original, but the drydown is very nice. This isn't a love for me, but definitely a like. Sometimes I want to smell like sugared sour berries, and this will do nicely.

Sampled in the store. The notes are pleasant, a different take on the usual citrus "fresh" scent from berry and lavender neatly knitted together. The woodsy note is there, but like the other two notes does not last very long on my skin. Overall, aroma lasted ~1.5 hour and sillage is skin-close. I would have enjoyed it more with greater longevity. Not impressing enough for me to buy, but might make a nice "body splash" spray for someone.

this is the best vs fragrance ive smelled so far. the boysenberry is not too sweet, so that is nice. its pretty linear. not a very deep fragrance, but nice. i think really anyone could wear it for day or night. could be worn at work too. 4 hrs later and the fragrance is still on me, though i doubt anyone else could smell it unless they were close.

Oh, I need to say, I totally love Bombshell Forever. Berries and lavender mix is just wonderful, subtly vibrating, like a cloud of immense pleasure! Woody base notes bring even more harmony and well-being. And my skin just loves them! Update: it is quite aromatic, so I think that in the middle of hot summer it is better for nights than for days.

Got the Bombshell Forever Body Mist and it wasn't my kinda thing when I first got it - the extremely clean and fresh smell kinda turned me off, and was tempted to give it away after the first spray. Got used to it after awhile though, and now I'm just using it as a spray for when I change into my home clothes after getting home.

Although this scent isn't super unique, I think that it's one of the best from VS. It smells nice and clean without having that overly citrus smell like the regular Bombshell or laundry detergent smell like the original Body By VS. This is a great clean fruity-floral everyday scent and I don't regret my purchase at all :)

I just bought this one today and I love it. It does remind me of the original Bombshell, but this is done much nicer, IMO. I do enjoy the scent,but I just wish it would last longer.

Citrus release close to a fruity air freshener with a sharp aromatic dry down.Something different from the usual sweet line of VS

Okay look. I love VS Fragrances. I love the Bombshell perfumes, but for real all of the Bombshell spin off smell the exact same as the original. They're messing up on this. This smells like bombshell with a bit of pepper in it. A guy can almost pass wearing it. Actually it smells like a mixture of Body by Victoria and Bombshell with a hint of pepper.

Hmm, nope. Starts with a wonderful juicy berry burst, then quickly goes soapy-sharp, like alcohol and hairspray on my skin. The original bombshell was similar too, very alcoholic from even a few feet away. (Asked my male roommate if he liked it, said it smelled cheap and like rubbing alcohol w/ a bit of fruit.)

i was a blind purchase based on the reviews here, but i was schocked, i cant smell but a masculine fragrance :( cant love it at all although my husnband like it !

Bombshell Forever is an astringent, sweet and sour berry fragrance with a light woody base. It is, unquestionably, a summer fragrance. I feel that this is a perfume that is absolutely not suited for cold weather. Don't let the berry or woody notes fool you into thinking it will be deep or dark, because the opposite: it's fresh, it's light, and it's carefree. Sillage and longevity are moderate to weak in cool temperatures. I sprayed it on and it was not detectable shortly thereafter... an hour or two, max. Unfortunately, it's a very cold January at the moment. I will sadly have to leave it be as to not waste it. Instead, I will be saving it for the season where it performs correctly. I was not blown away by this fragrance. Not yet. I disagree with the reviews that accuse it of being masculine. I honestly can't see why someone would think it was masculine or that they could see a man wearing it. Bombshell Forever reminds me of a lotion I used to have called Frosted Berry. The original Bombshell and Bombshell Forever strike square on the nose that delicate balance between too close to the original fragrance and being too distant. You can tell it is a Bombshell flanker, but it has its own personality. It is not a dupe of the original at all. If you like Bombshells, this is a great one to add to your collection.

Bombshell Forever is definitely related to the original Bombshell - however, I think I almost like this one better that the original. At first there is this subtle berry note that is sweet with maybe just a tiny touch of tartness (at least to my nose). The berry fades within the first few minutes, though. The lavendar gives this an almost masculine edge. That's not to say this fragrance is unisex - it is decidedly a female fragrance. The woods are nice and smooth - not exactly sure what pample wood is, but it works :) Overall, I think this is a sucessful Bombshell flanker. Even better, it is much longer lasting on my skin than any of the other Bombshell fragrances. I tried it on at about 6:30 pm and can still smell it very faintly on my wrist this morning (8:45 am). Even if you are not a fan of the Bombshell fragrances I recommend giving this one a try.

The scent is quite delightful, it's very fresh/clean and energetic. But it also has this soapy smell which I didn't notice when testing in store, I was first disappointed but then after a few more sniffs it actually smells quite comfortable, would probably suit nicely as a home spray. The bottle itself however is a totally pain. When I first opened it the small clamp thing below the nozzle got completely stuck in the cap and made the bottle leaky all the time, it took me more than an hour or so to get it out, at which point the excitement for getting a new perfume was basically all gone. For this price VS could definitely make the packaging a bit better.

Victoria Secret Bombshell Forever is like a slap to your senses! A very sharp, tangy-tart boysenberry, a cologne like lavender, and woody undertones. I can definitely see a man wearing this! It’s very similar to the original Bombshell in the dry down and a man can certainly wear that fragrance too. I do not hate the scent, but I am honestly not impressed. This minimalist bottle doesn’t match the rest of the bombshell flankers with its flat cap and thinner glass bottle. Since I collect all the Bombshells I had to get this for my collection, but Victoria Secret has certainly put out better editions of Bombshell in the past!

smelled this today and let me tell you that i loved it..alot..it reminded me of Chanel Eau Fraiche but to me its better because the tangy fizzy citrus in this turns more sweet and well rounded and not so manly sharp as eau fraiche...i love the scent and i would buy it over Chanel surpisingly but the price for a VS perfume keeps me from buying..it is not as long lasting since its citrus fresh but it is one i want i really crave for this scent and Forever Red

I really love Victoria's Secret scents. They are so playful and sensual. This one is good. I almost bought it but on my chemistry it was too close to the original to warrant a purchase and it dried down like bug spray on my skin, I was very disappointed as a lot of times VS scents are a home run for me. The original bombshell to me is better in the middle and dry down where to me it matters most. It's still a nice scent if it works for you.

It's fruity, it's fresh. It smells like orange juice at first, then it simmers down into a floral-y scent. It's fun and playful. Suitable for the young adults or women who has fun and outgoing personality. Personally, I like Bombshell Forever a lot better than the original Bombshell--too powdery for my taste...it's like you spray a bottle of baby powder to your body :(

picture original Bombshell-take out some floral notes and add berries instead. Presto, you got Bombshell Forever. Its very fruity initially, eventually it mellows out into woodsy musk with hint of berries. Nice but kind of meh. I much prefer the original, I find it more distictive than the rest of Bombshell flankers who are quite generic

When I saw the notes and the reviews, I was scared to try it. I figured that it would be an extremely masculine scent and I hate those kind of scents. But, to my surprise it's actually a very nice scent. It reminds me of, Bombshell mixed with Body by Victoria (the 2012 release one). So glad, I tried this!

Unfortunately I can't detect any lavender in this, at all. It sprays on as a slightly masculine, dark berry fragrance, and on my skin this fades within an hour or so, leaving a woody powder smell behind. I see lots of positive reviews though so I guess this one just isn't so great with my chemistry.

Picked this up at one of their outlet shops for $25. Smells very fresh and clean, almost like the PINK fresh and clean scent. Longevity is great, and I'm really enjoying the dry down. I don't think I'd want to pay $52 for it, but I'm glad I have it

I learned about it when i saw a celebrity holding this perfume, I thought to try it and I bought it for my wife. I must say its amazing. I would love if someone suggest me more of like these or better one with long lasting and great smell.

This doesn’t share too many similarities with the original Bombshell but it gets points for being more unique than the average Victoria’s Secret scent. The lavender adds a nice edge, a toughness. But still cute. Fresh and sexy!

Ugh, so pretty and sexy! A little citrusy, fruity mixed with a tad of masculine scent!
