Bombshell Holiday Eau de Parfum

The Bombshell flankers for 2019 have been really impressive; Wildflower, Intense and Holiday have been particular standouts and I enjoy them more than the original Bombshell. There is no vanilla and very little jasmine detectable to me, unlike almost every other Victoria's Secret perfume that I've tried/owned, so it's different for them. On me it is a clean, uncluttered and cold pomegranate and woodsy scent, with a little bit of airy musk in the base. There is a mix of some fresh & green floral notes in the background, but none of them are strong enough for me to be able to separate and identify, though I do get a impression of the original Bombshell, so I guess they must more or less be the same. Bombshell Holiday is the scent of a walk through a fruit orchard on a frosty morning - it's a perfect autumn/winter fragrance. It is a fairly close-to-the-skin fragrance, and it has a "meh" longevity (around 6 hours), which is a shame and slightly lessens my enjoyment for it. However I still reccomend trying it out if you enjoy simpler, clean fragrances, as it makes a lovely daytime perfume, and can be layered with smokier perfumes for the evening to give them an icy jolt of energy.

Fragrance type: Mostly floral, and then fruity Notes: Iced Pomegranate, Winter Jasmine and Birchwood Sillage: Arms length, closer to skin This version of Bombshell is a beautiful scent, It smells similar to the original bombshell but it is definitely fitting of the name because it smells clean and icy. I will try to explain the scent as the following: imagine what princess walking in a cold, snowy morning would smells like, and that's the smell. I smell mostly the winter jasmine, but you can definitely smell the fruity sweetness of the pomegranate. It is also super refreshing to smell, like when you get a rush of cold winter air. On the younger side, but not much to complain about the perfume!

Do not let it's name fool you since this beauty is summer in a bottle. Absolutely gorgeous & long lasting (7-8 hours) Fresh, bold, girly, and doesn't smell like the actual bombshell perfume. I somehow smell citrus/fruit the first few hours... which is why summer comes to mind. Hours later, flowers arrive which is nice, too. The combo is so pretty & uplifting. This perfume is so much different than other bombshells that smell just like the original. Definitely one of the best bombshells! Very recommended. PS: no leather or wood for me

The bombshell and this holiday edition are waaaaaaay better than any other designs of VS'. This is a super good winter smell that can be used as a complementary of the original bombshell! I always wanted to have one, but only got to try it a couple of times. Will buy one for sure after I used up my current bombshell.

I really like the scent of this perfume. It smells icy and floral at the same time. The scent reminds me of Britney Spears' perfume ''Curious''.
