Secret Craving Victoria`s Secret for women

This was a blind buy online since the country I live in only has one Victoria's Secret, which is on an adjoining island an hour away by metro.

On the initial spray, I was absolutely disgusted. It spelled exactly like plastic and alcohol, and also something spicy. It was definitely not for me, I thought. Where was the blackcurrant and vanilla I had been promised?

The initial top notes were also not my favourites. It smelled a tad too fruity and tropical for my liking, since I'm a fan of gourmand scents.

After it calmed down considerably, it smelled like blackcurrants and vanila, as promised. I own Bath and Body Works's Black Raspberry Vanilla, which is very tart. This is a sharper, sweeter, but less tart and more refreshing version of that scent. That being said, though it is less tart, it is actually yummier than my B&BW, though that could be due to my current stated of hunger.

Overall, I prefer this to my B&BW, though I will need to wait for the scent to settle. Definitely a scent I will use in the future, though I'm not sure about repurchasing.

I was so excited about the frosting note (as described in the shop), but there is something slightly spicy in here that I do not like.

This is nice-I got little gift set that had small lotion, shower gel and body spray. This reminded me of Ralph Lauren Hot. I have both and Hot is very simular to Secret Craving except Hot is fresher smelling. If you like Brown Sugar and Fig from BBW, and Hot, you will like this. I think its a bit softer than Hot and doesn't project as well but it seem to last longer than some other VS fragrances

woooo very strong like incense almost, this is not for me, I was hoping for something sweet. Oh well I will be returning this.

very sweet powdery ... ;)

At first, it kinda smells like bubblegum to me.LOL Sweet with a little understated sexiness to it, and I have to agree, it does smell yummy too. I've recently started adding some of the VS Fantasies into my collection again because you can buy quite a few of them for a good price. When I was in my late teens-early twenties, the VS Fantasy line was all I bought because of the affordability. I use the shower gel and lotion and I get pretty good lasting power. Secret Craving, you are delish!

I don't know why, but after I spray it on my skin it just reminds me of my childhood...it's sweet, comforting, and it totally brings me back to the time when I was a little girl. Maybe it smells just like a type of candy that I used to eat? Or a shampoo that I once used? I don't know...but it smells really good.

To me, this is a delicious cool weather/evening scent. Not something I would reach for on a hot day, even though it's just a body splash/lotion. The staying power is good and I can still smell it by the end of the day.

Smells like dark/sharp fruit and dark vanilla, if that makes sense. It's yummy and definitely my new favorite scent from the vs fantasies line.
