Bombshell Seduction Eau de Parfum

I'm surprised this one gets me quite some compliments, especially when layered with VS Lush Air lotion. I was heading out to class wearing this and my grandma asked me what I was wearing because "huele rico" in her words lmao. She was surprised when I told her it's Bombshell Seduction. Then I was in class & a girl in the next row whispered to me "omg you smell so good by the way!" after I answered a question, but I was sitting in the back corner. I will definitely buy this again in the biggest size. The projection and sillage is actually incredible for the price. This can be wearable for all seasons and even at night, now that I know its strength. For me, I feel like wearing this on a warm day in the spring or fall. In the summer I tend to reach for fresh aquatic scents and this isn't that at all. The combination of sage, tuberose, and musk makes for a clean and powdery, but herbal, white floral scent with an aromatic spiciness in the background coming from the sage. On my skin: That sage note stays throughout the wear of the fragrance; it is reminiscent of burned sage. Reminds me of my Cuban aunt burning incense after a day of cleaning, especially with the tuberose heart & musky dry-down. I find it rather nostalgic so this is why I love it. The tuberose isn't bubblegum-ish; it is more indolic and subdued, natural and earthy. And the white musk makes for a clean soapy skin scent in the dry down. Soapy should be an accord. Decent longevity for the price too, I get like 6 hours out of this

I went into the duty-free VS store to get the full bottle of one of my faves, the original Bombshell but walked out with this one instead! As I was looking into my bag for something, the store attendant sprayed the paper strip with this one first, apart from the other flankers and the original. I remember my brain going like "wait...this is Bombshell, but different...and rounded...and grown-up....but wow, I love it...its so...mmmm". And I bought a full bottle. I came home and tried it for a few days. I LOVE slight whiffs of it the most, I think. Too close to my nose and it gets annoyingly sweet and too much for me. But for those whiffs, I'm happy with my purchase. Compared to Bombshell, this is NOT the seductive one, lol. This, for me, portrays a simple, sweet, charming woman with a good heart haha. Bombshell felt more intrepid and with bolder intentions, a little more my type, but hey, roleplays are nice! LOL. This definitely feels simpler, not boring ofc, but more linear and clean, as other reviewers mentioned. Very easy to wear every day. Between the OG and this one, I prefer the former closer to my neck and this one a little lower on the apparel for the whiffs. Depending on the time of day and my mood, I would wear this or the other or both layered. P.S. This also kind of reminds me of another unknown brand body spray I used to have and love years ago, some purple bottle, and gives me nostalgia about the good ol times too, so win-win.

Bombshell Seduction by Victoria's Secret is the epitome of femininity. It is a classy, sparkling scent which smells seductive and luxurious. Like champaign, fresh fruit, and bouquets of flowers. It has an alluring quality which I have yet to discover in another fragrance. I always receive compliments when I wear this scent, especially from men. What I love the most about this perfume is the subtle sexiness. It is clean and confident and has a lighteness which I love in perfume. I tend to dislike fragrances that smell too heavy, warm, or spicy. This perfume is none of those things. Instead, it is crisp, fresh, playful, and glimmering. I also adore the bottle, which is a beautiful pink design and which perfectly suits the beautiful feminine fragrance within. The fresh and sparkling quality is also present in Love Eau de Parfum from Victoria’s Secret, another of my personal favorites. Although they may not last as long as some other perfumes, all of the fragrances from Victoria’s Secret seem to share a femininity, a girly cleanliness, and a lightness which is absolutely irresistible and which seems attractive to a wide variety of people, especially men. To me, this perfume smells like winter in New York City, like department stores, luxury magazines, clean bouncy hair, flirtatious glances, like falling in love at first sight.

Out of all the scents in the bombshell collection, this is the most sophisticated smelling one. This is also the only one that I actually like and will wear. A far cry from Victoria's usual fruity florals and boring linear and overly saccharine body spray scents, this one actually has depth and character. It's feminine and youthful, without being sweet, floral without smelling like grandmas house, and has some decent longevity which is uncharacteristic of VS perfumes. With this one, I get a VERY light citrus at the opening... just a spritz... and then it dries down to a smooth, herby floral scent. Maybe its just me, but this also slightly gives me sunscreen... not a tropical coconut sunscreen, but like an expensive floral sunscreen. Not sure what I'm smelling, but I LOVE it. Its a great scent for spring and summer and could easily be someones signature or everyday scent. I'm hard to please when it comes to VS, but this one surprised me, especially since I am not a fan of the other bombshells. Intense smells good, but I would never wear it. The original is boring and passion just doesn't smell good to me. This one is perfect.

For a long time I was obsessed with the original bombshell and I was always wearing it. A few years later I was in a VS store with a friend who suggested me to buy this instead. Today I just repurchased it after finishing that bottle. Honestly, I don’t get the correlation with the regular bombshell. This is softer and more elegant, in my opinion. It smells very clean, I detect some white flowers with a soft animalic base note which gives it more uniqueness and sexiness. I get an aquatic kind of feeling, and a creamy-coconutty vibe. I use the body mist which I prefer because it’s more refreshing, it’s wonderful to spray after showering. I also get whiffs of it on the things I touch after application, even after many days! I highly recommend if you like subtle clean and feminine fragrances. Ps. If you know the music video of MJ “You Rock My World”, I imagine the gorgeous girl he is trying to seduce smelling like this. Elegant, simple and sexy.
