Pink 2001

Well I had gone through a bottle of this stuff pretty quickly which is something strange for me as I rarely ever finish any perfume I own, and 75ml in a just a little over 4 months is a record for me...it was so easy to wear, even when I'm not in the mood for fragrances. Some days I get really sensitive to smells, especially when the weather gets so hot, I just start getting sick alot throughout these hellish desert summers...and this is the only scent I can stomach...seriously, even those fruity/tropical summer scents could make me feel nauseous. But this is such a pretty green-floral, watery, mild, and completely void of sugar, fruit or any sharp citrus note, no bitter tea, all of which are notes you tend to find in many other 'summer' scents that I tire off quickly. It's fresh-out-of-the-shower stuff but without any synthetic/chemical/clean-laundry vibe you tend to find in many clean scents. No soapy vibe or annoying muskiness (I usually love musk, but not when it's boiling hot outside) either. I got alot compliments on it too, people simply love this one, so refreshing. Sillage is soft to moderate and longevity is pretty good for a light scent (~7 hours). I have not been feeling very well lately and I am craving this one again. I don't know how the repackaged version smells like (according to reviews, it's the same), but it's not to hard to find this version where I'm at. Oh, and I agree that this is a softer Miracle (which I also love), with soothing green notes in place of Miracle's spices and litchi.

I wore this all the time in high school...never thought twice about swapping it out for any other scent at the time. My best guy friend said it smelled like "something an older woman would wear, but not in a bad way" (by that he meant older than HS, but not something your grandma would wear) and my best gf said it smelled too sour on HER. I started to second guess myself thinking maybe it wasn't the most lovable fragrance for everyone and played around with others for the past few years. Then last night I was going through my VS treasure box gift set with the 8 mini bottles and thought for old times sake I would spritz some on before work. 1. Smells green, CLEAN, and fresh on me. 2. My husband complimented it immediately 3. Not too sharp, not too citrus 4. Great lasting power. 5. I realized I probably was slightly ahead of my time wearing this in high school...but its perfect now. This perfume truly is all about the body chemistry. Either it works for you or it doesn't. I'll be re-upping with a full sized bottle ASAP

FYI- I am most familiar with the 2001 version of this perfume, so my ratings and review will be based off of that. I am not opposed to trying newer versions if and when I encounter them, though. When I was in high school, I got a small conical bottle of this as a free gift when I bought some of Victoria Secret’s lotions. I liked it, but I wasn’t as into it as I was Cool Water and the EDT version of Hugo Woman, so it fell by the wayside. I rediscovered it after college; I wanted something fresh and citrusy to wear to work without using up my Cool Water. Unfortunately during that time I wasn’t as knowledgeable as I am now about storing perfumes properly; due to being stored in a bedroom closet on a poorly insulated external wall, it was exposed to fluctuations in temperature. This, along with it being used infrequently, led to it going rancid and me having to toss it. Looking back, I wish I’d worn this scent more. It was a cheery, bright scent that did a great job of lifting the workday blahs without being too bold.

I love this so very much! It’s disappointing that I don’t get to wear it often anymore since it’s been discontinued, especially since I’ve been wearing it for about 20 years. Such a pretty, fresh, bright, crisp, flirty and fun green floral fragrance with a musky vanilla base! I’ve always found something kind of sexy about this fragrance too. As much as I love the vanillas and gourmands that are popular now, the OG Pink will always be something really special and beautiful to me! It is basically the opposite of the sweet gourmands. It’s bright, fresh, and fun! It’s dewy, green, bright freesia, a little citrusy, and clean white florals. As it dries down the musk, vanilla, sandalwood, and vetiver become more prominent, but it’s still bright and fresh. I’ve always gotten really great longevity with this, it lasts the entire day. The projection is nice too, it radiates out about an arm’s length from me. When I use the lotion with the perfume I can still smell it the next day!

I found accidentally a new perfume store close to my house during my X-mas vacations. I wanted to buy a perfume for my mother and I ended up buying one for me too, Pink by VS. Tell me crazy but I haven't owned any VS perfume till now cause there are thousands out there. They make editions with only one note in each body of the perfume (top-middle-base) so it would take me years to find one I could fall in love and it would last on me too. This perfume is heavenly pink! If I could describe it, it would be fresh, warm, a bit floral and fruity sweet. There's a strawberry/sugary/vanilla sweetness, combined with white fresh floral notes and a nice addictive deepness. The green notes give an aromatic crispy character that I love. It was love from first smell and I hadn't experienced the same feeling for a long time. It's inches away to be called perfume for younger crowds but can you believe that they sell it from 125-250$ as you can't find it anymore? Check it and try it!
