Has anyone tried Mystic Silk yet?
If so, what are your thoughts? Notes are crushed macadamia and caramel silk
Please help me find a limited edition scent
Hey all!
I'm looking for some incredible investigative skills!
So, around 2018-19 I got a limited edition VS Body Mist as a part of a christmas present. It was the most incredible scent I've ever smelled and I tried to use it sparingly but, alas it was gone within 6 months.
I've been trying to remember the name of it so I can have a look on vinted or Ebay but all I remember is that it was a darker coloured bottle and it had a sticker on that you could see from inside the bottle. I think it was like a black sticker with either sparkles, glitter, or confetti printed on it in either silver or gold and I'm fairly certain it was a caramel scent.
I know it wasn't bare vanilla, and it definitely wasn't pink or amber. Please tell me somebody else knows what I'm talking about 😅. Any help would be incredible!
VS Pink Toasty Vanilla Item Number Search
Does anyone happen to know the item number for the VS Pink toasty vanilla body mist and lotion?
I’m headed to the beach and wasn’t able to find it in store before my trip and I won’t be near a VS store. I was going to try to order it via customer service if I can.
If anyone happens to know the numbers I would greatly appreciate it 🙏🏻
VS Whipped Collection notes
Went back & got notes + found Bare Vanilla! I also smelled them all this time—-I’m not great with scent descriptions but I’ll try my best.
Pure Seduction: Jasmine Meringue, Marshmallow Crème
Velvet Petals: Pink Sugar Petals, Drizzled Caramel
Love Spell: Sugared Apricot, Raspberry Fluff
Bare Vanilla: Vanilla Buttercream, Cashmere Clouds
——
In my opinion, Pure Seduction & Velvet Petals are the best—-both pretty strong & smell exactly like their notes. I think Velvet Petals could have fit into the Baked by Victoria collection.
Bare Vanilla smelled good like all its flankers, but not that different from any we’ve had before & it was definitely the lightest. I sprayed it multiple times & it was still lighter than the others.
Love Spell just smelled kind of weird to me, though I’m not sure if that’s because I only had the lotion to test (their lotions sometimes have an odd undertone to me). I guess I got the apricot, but it also had a weird sunscreen smell to me that just didn’t work & I usually like sunscreen scents.
Hope this helps!
Reviews of several new collections from a non-gourmand lover
Hi everyone! I went to a couple stores today and tried out the Velvet Bohemia, Dulce, and Halloween collections. Keep in mind I love fruit and sugar scents and tend to dislike gourmands and most vanillas.
Hey Boo: not a repackage of Apple Rush! It's kind of a cinnamon-y apple and reminds me of something I've smelled before. In fact, I think it's the body care version of the PINK Halloween candle of the same name.
Never Ghosted: a sugary, ambery scent with a bit of marshmallow. Absolute love!
Ghoul Next Door: photorealistic peach gummy. It smells exactly like a BBW peach Bellini hand sanitizer I still have from like 2016 lmao
Glaze à la Mode: it smells like a sweeter version of SDJ 62. To my nose it doesn't smell like the pistachio scent from fall 2024; that one was not as sweet and much more nutty.
Vanilla Mousse: heavy vanilla with a hint of marshmallow. To my nose it smells super similar to Bare Vanilla, which I don't like. I was hoping for something more marshmallow than vanilla.
Berry Parfait: a sharp berry with the slightest crumble note. I like it but don't love it.
Milky Madeleine: the mist was really light with a faint sweet vanilla scent but the lotion is much more gourmand. I don't like it for that reason.
Velvet Bohemia: light chai scent, not a scent profile I like but not bad.
Mystic Silk: to my nose it's a light nutty, cinnamon scent. I was hoping for more of the caramel and didn't really like it.
Cashmere Haze: a pretty but generic coconut, and I don't like coconut.
Suede Wonder: a clean, plush, suede berry scent. When I say plush I mean that it smells soft but expensive. When I say clean I mean that it's not very sweet but seems like something I'd want to put on after a shower.
Ruby Strawberry: if strawberry could smell medicinal, this one is it. I didn't like it.
Has anyone found a fragrance similar to VS Bare Vanilla Frosted? I still think about it 😭
This is such a random one, but I still think about Victoria’s Secret Bare Vanilla Frosted way more than I should 😭 It was limited edition and to me it didn’t smell like a basic sweet vanilla at all. It had this really pretty cold wintery icy edge to it that made it feel different from the usual warm gourmand vanilla.
I’ve tried a lot of vanilla body mists since, but nothing has really scratched that same itch. Everything leans too warm, too sugary, or too bakery.
If anyone remembers this one, what fragrance would you say is the closest to it? Could be body mist or perfume. I just want something that gives that same icy vanilla vibe.
My Reviews On The New Scents 🍨🍫🍓🍬 ˖ . ݁𝜗𝜚. ݁
Disclaimer :: these are just my opinions! It’s best to pop in and try these on yourself to see how they mix with your scent chemistry.
When I went in for my shift yesterday, I was ECSTATIC to see almost all of the new mists. During my shift I bounced around to try them all! Included in this post is ˖ . ݁𝜗𝜚. ݁ Glaze Alamode, milky Madeline, berry parfait, vanilla mouse, pumpkin vanilla, apple crisp, and toasty vanilla!
Vanilla Mouse 🍨 :: I was SO taken aback at how good this scent was. It’s a creamy, yummy, rich gourmand vanilla. It’s definitely lactonic. Very photorealistic to creamy mousse. And in my opinion, it lasted long on my scent card! I WILL be purchasing. I also think this mist can stand on its own OR be paired with something else to boost the whole combo. Pair it with a vanilla perfume, a pistachio perfume, literally any sweet thing. You can’t go wrong. It’s so versatile and potent. 10/10 for me.
Glaze Alamode 🍫 :: personally, this one is kinda mid to me 🤷🏽♀️ it’s just a generic sweet scent. I don’t know if I’d wear this alone, HOWEVER this would be INCREDIBLE to layer with other things. Choco musk, praline and pistachio EDP, other pistachio things as well since it has that note. It would do so well to amplify other things layered beneath or on top of it. Staying power was good too.
Milky Madeline 🧁 :: this mist gave neither milky or Madeline. I don’t think this smelled like Madeline at all, personally. If you know the dessert (a light, shell shaped sponge cake) then this won’t smell like one at all. To be truthful I couldn’t smell anything, it was just so faint. It faded fast. And I smelled it multiple times.
Berry Parfait 🍓🫐 :: this one smelled OFF to me. The berry was DEFINITELY there, but there was a bite throwing it off. Idk if it was the pink sugar or the berry crumble, but there was just something funky about it. Sultry berry bourbon was one of the best berry scents VS ever put out. I describe this mist as just like that, but with something weird in it. Staying power was good though.
Pumpkin Vanilla 🍦🎃 :: this mist was arguably the one I was most excited for. And the most disappointed by. Guys. It smells like a box of crayola crayons. It smells like PENCIL SHAVINGS. I was so grossed out and disappointed. WAYYYYY too heavy on the spice, barely any vanilla. I tried multiple times, and I layered the mist on top of the lotion. Eeeeyuck.
Toasty Vanilla 🍨 :: Generic vanilla! Not creamy, just generic. Too weak to stand on its own. Probably good for layering though. Good for beginners looking for a simple vanilla mist to finish off their combo. Would also be good for an out of the shower scent / lightly misting your freshly washed clothes / misting your bed or room.
That apple / apple crisp 🍏🍎 (I couldn’t remember the name) :: I was SO pleasantly surprised by this! Very delicious scent. Smelled like cinnamon apple treat. All noted are well balanced throughout. Decent lasting power too! This will be the first apple scent I ever buy!
Just Baked 🍪: I didnt get to smell this one in stores, but based on the notes, it’s probably just a repackage of an old fall scent. But I’m sure it’ll still be yummy! The only thing may be the staying power, since PINK sets can be heavily hit or miss.
Hopefully this helped yall! The vanillas were so good this season, I love them. I’ll definitely be picking up vanilla mousse!
New VS Flankers: Whipped Collection
Saw in store today! I only tested Pure Seduction which smelled incredible.
Has anybody got the chance to sniff this collection?
Please tell you thoughts if you have? Is it new or old??
EU SAS finds!
i’m currently traveling in the EU and it’s been such a dream checking out what mists they have for sas since i’m a bit newer to vs beauty! i’ve been to vs in italy, spain, and france so far.
they had the…
- bliss flanker line
- daydream flanker line
- 2025 archives (blue/orange vanilla lace, pear glace)
- eu exclusive oud line
- 2024 blends line (sultry berry bourbon, lush cherry cream, etc.)
- cherry line
- a few from the 2025 lunar new year line
- a few from the starlit line
all for sas! 40% off a base price of 24.99 euros.
a bit steeper than in the states, but i reasoned that it’s cheaper than buying older collections from resellers.
i ended up falling in love with pure seduction daydream and sultry berry bourbon, and i picked up a bottle of the latter. however, i’m still on the hunt for pure seduction starlit and velvet petals starlit.
i didn’t take many photos but here are the few that i did take!
Beauty haul!
I am SO excited about all of these! I go through lotion like crazy so I knew I had to take advantage of the sales going on right now. There are some clothes I want too but I think they’ll still be there next time I make an order so I decided to stick with beauty stuff for this. What do yall think about the cherry ones? I saw someone say they didn’t like those but they sound like they smell delicious so I ordered anyway lol
Incase you didn’t know… currently in stock!
New PINK body mist!
I hope they’ll be adding more soon!
Notes:
Raspberry Glaze
Vanilla Latte
Fluffed Pastry
Scent of July 🌸🍦
I’ve decided I’m finally going to use up my Velvet Petals this month since I have a backup now. 🤭 It’s hands down my number one VS scent. It’s honestly so amazing—such a pretty, buttery, sweet almondy floral. That’s the best way I can describe it. And I have found the perfect lotion to pair with it 🤫 besides the velvet petals one of course.
Legally Blonde Elle Body Spray VS Pink
Hi everyone! I just got the Legally Blonde Elle Body Spray VS Pink and I absolutely LOVE the smell! However I can't do it with the glitter.
Is anyone know a dupe for?
Or how to take the glitter out? - I tried to use a coffee paper but I can't open the spray cap.
HELP!!
Question
Does anyone know if they ever released this line? I want this one soo bad but I’ve never seen it in stores or the app
How does this smell? Also share your thoughts on Pure Seduction bliss. I haven't tried the original Love spell. I have purchased Bare Vanilla & Velvet Petals from the bliss collection and I'm planning to buy love spell and Pure Seduction bliss.
