Pink Vacay

I just got this at the semi annual sale, which is the best time to buy perfumes at Victoria's Secret. I like this perfume, but not enough to pay full price. It's marketed as a summer scent, but to me it seems almost cozy. I think it could be worn year round. It's not a scent that seems to project a lot, and even when just sprayed it's not a strong scent. Maybe in the summer heat it will project more. I do get a slight coconut scent with this, which is probably what gives it that summer vibe for some. I'm noticing as I wear it that it smells like a lighter version of Katy Perry's Meow or Britney's In Control Curious. I think it's the vanilla that makes them similar. Edit and QUESTION for others: Is it just me, or is this almost too weak to smell?! Even my daughter said it was on the weak side. I may end up taking it back even though it was cheap, and get something else. Update 1: This did seem to wear stronger and better in the summer heat. It's nice, and I've worn it quite a bit this summer. Update 5/09/2022: I kept it and it's a "love" for me. I try to remember to pull this out every spring. It's not listed, but I swear I smell coconut. Maybe it's the passion fruit? Anyway, this isn't super strong, but it's one of my favorites. It lifts my mood and puts me in that summer spirit. I'm halfway through my bottle, and hope I can find another when it's gone.....The drydown is the most gorgeous vanilla.

I tried this and found it to be too light to even consider buying. VS perfumes in general don't have great sillage or lasting power(with a couple exceptions), so the fact that it starts out so soft, was a game ender for me. The bottle is cute, the name is wacky. I'll try it one more time before I write it off, but doubt I'll change my mind. Plus, VS is sure to come out with lots more summer scents. I'll wait for something a bit stronger.

I am so happy that I found this scent and I will tell you why... my signature scent Glamorazzi by flirt was discontinued years ago and I just didn't see my self paying a lot of money to have it duplicated without being able to smell the finished product first. Well I am about as happy as can be right now because VS has duplicated it perfectly!!!

This reminds me very much of a discontinued VS body spray that I loved -- Island Escape Beachy Coconut and Sugar Cane. It doesn't have the coconut but it has the sugar cane component, and still reminds me of sweetened coconut water. The same sort of watery, fresh, but still slightly sugary. A sweet scent that is great for summer, as silly as the name is it really would be perfect for a vacation somewhere hot. It lasts a long time and is never overpowering, and despite the sweet manages to stay fresh without an overwhelming marine or calone note. It's quite a magical scent in some ways, in how it is sweet and fresh at the same time -- hard to manage a sweet scent that doesn't get cloying and too much in the heat. It is a lovely light sweet scent for summer if you can get past the name!

One of those warm sugary vanilla yummy scents that like prettyswag said it also reminds me of a slightly fruitier BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar with a lil tropical twist. Its warm, close to the skin and cozy, like you just want to hug or snuggle up with whoever is wearing it. The sillage is not the best but staying power is good on me. Perfume seems a bit oily, makes me think that its high in essential oils which is a good thing to me.
