I went to America with one thing on my mind - Victoria's Secret.
Not so much the underwear (it stops at a D cup, what the?) but the bath and beauty products.
Holy smokes am I obsessed most notably with the Love Spell fragrance which I reviewed here - link
but the Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mists in their entirety are utterly divine.
Out of the huge selection of scents they offer (over 26) there was only one that I disliked which was Amber Romance...actually that is a lie I also disliked the Strawberries and Champagne version too.
I ended up with seven Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mists in total some of which I did pick up at the Orlando Outlets for $3 (normally $12) each which is rather amazing, well worth raiding the bargain bins in the outlets if you ever get the chance. The scents that made it home with me include : Coconut Passion which is a blend of vanilla and coconut but is more of a creamy vanilla scent. If you fancy something more coconut based I recommend Luscious Kisses. Endless Love which features apple blossom and ylang ylang - best described it is a fruity apple like fragrance which is somewhat similar to DKNY Be Delicious. Speaking of fruity scents Forbidden Fantasy is the perfect summer offering, it features passion fruit (heavily) and Jasmine. I bought Midnight Mimosa on a whim and regret it as although a supposive blend of Mimosa Flower and Musk it rings truer to the fragrance of a baby wipe! Lastly I have Sheer Love which is the lightest scent out of the lot featuring white cotton and pink lily - this is the perfect fragrance for those that enjoy the scent of freshly washed sheets. A clean crisp scent.
For $12 a pop they are a great and affordable way to switch fragrances on a daily basis should you wish and as they are forever on offer (3/$25 or 5/$30) most won't be able to resist a little splurge. I tend to use the Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mists in place of perfume for daily wear when I know I'm going no-where special or as a quick pick me up after the gym. One thing that is for sure is that I am hooked and when I go to NYC next year I will be stock piling once again.
US readers can find the Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mists on such offer here - link

I absolutely love the bath and beauty products in VS too! That's the only reason I go in there!
ReplyDeleteI wish there were a few more VS stores in the UK though, my nearest one is in Stratford City - it's so far away!!

One just opened at the Trafford Centre near me, I popped in and it was SO busy! The underwear is a no-go for me due to lack of sizes above a D (boo!? Why be so limited? :( ) but the fragrances I checked out immediately. Didn't like Love Spell at all but I really liked Aqua Kiss and Hello Darling xx

What lovely bottles! There's a new Victoria's Secret in the Trafford Centre (manchester) - I wonder if they will sell any of the fragrance/make-up bits?
