I hate this so much... Smells like plum with sugar and it’s def not flirty to me..
XMistralX
this is a super fruity perfume. i usually describe it as a slightly sexy fruit punch. definitely a good everyday scent but its very young. not complex
jay_m
This is a nice, fresh and fruity fragrance when sprayed into the air or onto clothing or fabric, but turns sickeningly sweet on my skin.

I love the scent, it smells great on me. Vibrant and refreshing.

I use it in very hot and humid days when using a perfume is big NO. I like it, it keeps the sweaty odor at bay. I don't get any floral in it, smells like a sweet fruit juice.
What surprised me about this mist, I received numerous compliments wearing this. My female co-workers and and friends loves it on me like crazy! Guys love it too! I am totally confused about it as I find it cloyingly sweet, but people around me are like, hey! you smell so fresh! Did just get out of shower?
I just wear it everywhere in summer, when I have literally less than five minutes to get dressed! I just put on something and spray this generously. I wouldn't ever repurchase it if not for the compliments it brought.
But looks like I am not very keen on pleasing other people anymore, so, the current one will be my last one ever.

This is such a beautiful, sweet, fresh fragrance and definitely one of my favorites of all time, especially in Summer. The fruity scents make me so happy and cheer me up and the sweetness of this fragrance makes me feel so free, like I can walk through a field of lavender with a princess gown. I love this so much and cannot get enough of it. Will definitely repurchase
9.5/10 (wish it stayed a bit longer on the skin because I have to reapply often)

Something about this makes it super pleasant to smell.

Not the best scent from VS- smells exactly like Love Spell very fruity and slightly plasticy.

I love pure seduction! It’s fruity and sweet. But I love pure seduction UNWRAPPED WAYYY BETTER. Omg it’s so sad that Victoria’s Secret discontinued pure seduction unwrapped. 😢 it smelt so sexy. You can still get it on eBay but not many people have it and of course they charge so much because it’s discontinued. But I just ordered the regular pure seduction and I also just ordered a new one that they just came out with which is LIMITED EDITION and it’s called Pure Seduction Decadent. It looks like it smells good. And it looks like it would smell similar to pure seduction unwrapped. But pure seduction decadent is supposed to be dark fruits and a dark And decadent twist on the regular pure Seduction. I’m SOOOO excited to get them both in the mail. But overall, I still love the regular pure seduction and when I first got it for the first time, I liked it but it wasn’t my favorite but now I like it more. I love the fruity and sweet mixed together. I’d DEFINITELY recommend.

This makes me smell like a 15 year old girl trying to dress up clumsily to impress boys. I don't see anything seductive about this. Nauseously sweet, a punch of straight up tart sweetness like a syrup or a type of cheap candy. I was gifted this and I regretted it the moment I sprayed it on sadly.
LibraMoon
Classic fruity with a hint of floral. Kinda red apple, fruit punch smelling, even though they notes say otherwise. Lots of people around me have always noticed, and liked it. One person said it smelled like watermelon. It's a good, refreshing fragrance.

Fresh, young and fruity. I guess you can say it's seductive in a "fresh out of the shower way". I sprayed a bit of it and surprisingly it lingered. Not a bad scent, but it's not my cup of tea.
Brittneigh
Very fruity, light and girly. I think it's nice. The shimmer mist is awesome, but it's not like my favourite scent you know? (I like something a little sweeter~!) My husband though is absolutely obsessed with this, it drives him crazy. Apparently he is not the only man that gets excited by this... hahaa. :) Can't go wrong with this one.
I think it smells like love spell too! Very slight difference. My husband thinks they are the exact same.

I have pure seduction noir so when I went into a store and saw it was the original pure seduction that isn’t frosted just the normal line I was excited. I was covered in so many perfumes so I wasn’t really able to get the true smell, until I came home. This smells exactly like love spell or am I tripping??
Marisat
A very sweet fruity floral scent. I think it's young, cute and fun but I wouldn't call it seductive by any means
flo90
I can't discern plum in that fragrance at all!!! Just a mix of flowers and some other fruits. Generally it's not bad, but I'm definitely not impressed and I wouldn't buy it (I have a sample).
BlueBerrycherry
Someone destroyed pure seduction. It smells nothing like the old one. I have wasted my money on this. Don’t buy it unless you like to smell like plastic.

For anyone trying to disgrace any VS product, I remind you, there's an army of women having a lifetime memories with VS stuff. I still wear Pure Seduction in the summers, how appealing and unique, sex in the bottle.
It smells very airy and crisp, I could smell musky thick plum jam and some aquatic notes, that could be freesia. Seriously, I tried to find any other perfume with same realistic plum, it's grace and lightness, but I never could.

Love this! Always reminded me of Minute Maid punch and a hint of roses! Just lovely! Oh my middle school times! A 5 to this !
Evlizabeth
Too nauseatingly fruity for my taste
eyi
I love the fruity, fresh, sweet smell. I do not know what note is more noticeable.
I think that everybody can use it without being offensive.
On clothes remain forever.

The sweetness overpowered any other notes for me. I associate the word "seductive" with a more complex scent so this wasn't what I expected. It was fresh, fruity, young, simple. I coupled it with the lotion and the staying power was less than 5 hours, which was the most disappointing part for me. I will wear again on a nice warm day and hopefully it will grow on me! 7/10

Funny pink bubblegum, youthful, pretty, and bright. My teens love it, and I like it on them, it’s a dancing fragrance putting a smile on the faces.
tyekristopher
For a body spray it’s actually pretty good quality . Sure it’s nothing complex but it’s not meant to be . I sprayed this on before I went to bed last night and could still smell it the following morning . I pull more of the floral notes on me which I kinda am disappointed about . It’s one of those scents where you can’t think of what to wear so you reach for this . I wouldn’t call this a sexy scent but I can see the appeal of it to men . Most men don’t have taste so most think this is sexy which I don’t get that vibe at all . See I think more oriental fragrances are more sexy but that’s just my opinion. It’s not a bad scent , it’s about as synthetic as it gets but it is what it is , my Exotic dancer friends all wear it

Yup. I absolutely can attest to some of the previous comments about this; it's like some sort of catnip for men...and aptly named.
This was a good signature scent for me at the time though (age 16-18), and it didn't clash with any season. I clicked "summer/night", but it definitely could be worn at any time. It wasn't ever too heavy, but it can withstand heat or cold, I actually still admire it's perfomance and I can't usually claim the same thing for other VS/BBW productions (I can't speak for current formulations of course, it seems as if everything has weakened lately).
This was an attractive dark berry/plum fragrance with white florals, but I didn't personally find it too syrupy or overkill. It had a slightly tart note too (rhubarb maybe?) and I felt like it helped balance and offset the sugared fruit. It isn't the most sophisticated fragrance, but it's legitimately appealing.
**Update**I found this buried beneath some clothes! I thought I had thrown it out. It lost all of it's pink color, but it still smells the same, and my recall was absolutely correct; I stand by my entire review.
Funny how this isn't something I would gravitate toward nowadays, but I'm swept up entirely in youthful nostalgia. I love this for the memories, and it STILL has better longevity than a lot of things.
An odd side note, but it smells a little like BBW's "Frosted Cranberry" candle.

Very lovely scent, I receive lots of compliments when I wear it. Its fruity floral too bad it does not last long on me I have to re-spray several times a day.

This reminds me of high school, along with the other classic VS scents like Love Spell and Coconut Passion. I think most people are introduced to these fragrances in their youth since they've been around for a long time, inexpensive, and marketed to our demographic. In that light, I love this scent. It's not a groundbreaking scent, it's not unique, but it smells like good times and youth. Your first kiss, prom, sleepovers with your best friend, summer break by the pool, a break at your locker to touch up your makeup and reapply your fragrance... good memories. Nostalgia is one hell of a phenomenon, and this evokes so make feelings! If you are wanting to try this fragrance for the first time in your adult life you may be unimpressed, I will admit. I only recommend if you love fruity, sweet, young smelling fragrances (which I personally love and will always hold dear to my heart). Smells very similar to Love Spell but this one is better and more "fresh" fruity and a teeny bit less synthetic.

I believed good reviews about this, only to be turned out it's too sweet for me. Too syrupy as well that I get a feeling as if taken a bath with sticky fruit syrup. It's artificial smell of fruits, not natural kinds, which can cause sickness. Not goes with my taste.
lnoskin
My sister left behind a body spray of this when she went to college. I just smelled it and it is sooooo sweet. Way too sweet for me. Kind of the same way Paris Hilton Can Can is too sweet (not saying they smell the same).
If you are into very sweet smelling perfumes, this is for you. PM me if you want to swap for a huge body spray (75% full). I also have the lotion.

I do not know why but this and Black Opium are like insane men magnets. Anytime I wear this, no matter where I go I am approached, just across the board. It's not really anything special, fresh-ish, fruity, and sweet. Something about it is very happy and nice and really just works.Not everything has to be deep, I think this would work on just about anybody.
Longevity is meh, but what does anyone expect from a VC scent? It's cheap enough to layer the body lotion and respray as needed.

Pure Seduction is sweet, aromatic fruity and refreshing. It starts with plum juice and vanilla. After it wears off, it turns to skin scent of freesia and watermelon. Layered with body lotion it lasts all day. I love it for warm season, especially nights out.

I bought it as a blind-buy and when the first time I smelled it I really didn't like it because it's smelled like a very sour strawberry candy, but then I went out and let it completely developed on my skin, then I fell heavenly in love with this fragrance. It reminds me of my childhood for some odd reasons. The only thing that I hate from this perfume is the longevity. But this perfume is one my favs from VS
rhoxieG
I definitely love this perfume! It's very seductive and sexy and I feel like just going in with its vibe. This has been my fragrance for the longest time!
dovey
This is definitely Vs pioneer master piece
All their other mists kindda revolve around it :)
the brilliant thing about it is that the initial spray starts super sweet almost choking notes of syrupy strawberry
but soon the dry down develops to a bubble gum like scent that stays close to the skin for long
Perfect for hot humid summer days ,work ,going dancing & at the gym
Over the years I can tell it has been reformulated several times
Not talking about any limited editions, I mean the Original Pure seduction, the latest reformulation doesn't seem to last as long
But still , this is what any vs store smells like when U step in :) its their Signature :)

Oh, gosh.
It's taken me a while to warm up to Victoria's Secret "Pure Seduction". I blind bought it based on reviews from a different website, but I should have paid more attention to other website reviews as well. I more than likely would not have bought it.
The combination of melon, plum, and freesia makes for quite a sweet mist, so if you typically get headaches from sweet scents, you absolutely shouldn't blind-buy this mist. Test it at the store, AND spray it on swatches that you can keep with you to see how it performs throughout the day.
This mist doesn't give me a headache but is a lot sweeter than I personally want my fragrances to be. The initial spray is a blast of strong sweetness, which smells like strawberry to me.I'm surprised that isn't listed as one of the notes.
That being said, once it dissipates and settles, it has a creamy, clean, light scent that's sweet, but not disgustingly sweet (which is how it opens in my opinion).
As soon as I'm out of the shower, I use lotion while my skin is damp, spritz this mist and walk through it, give it a few minutes to settle, and then dress. I spray a little on my fingers and dab select spots on my top so it's not blasting everyone with its sweetness.
When used this way, I actually really like it. I've received compliments on it, from both men and women. If I sprayed it directly on my skin and clothes, I'm pretty sure I'd get requests to tone it down or not use it at all.
All this to say: it's a very sweet scent, so use a very light hand with it. You and those around you will enjoy it more this way.
If you must top up during the day, spray it in your hands and dab it on, do NOT spray it directly on your skin or clothes.
Finally, it's best to test it at the store before purchasing it. I don't consider this a safe blind buy based on the sweetness.
UPDATE: 4/24/19
It's been a little over a year since I purchased Pure Seduction.
I'm still not done with my bottle because I have other scents I use each day.
My perfume preferences drastically changed this year, because all I want to use is sweet fragrances, especially in the sunny-but-still-cool Spring weather.
I grew to love Sweet Seduction towards the end of last year and definitely love it now. I reach for it often. I doubt it would be a repurchase for me, but it's a flirty, clean and lovely scent especially when used with a light hand.

This is a fun and flirty scent, that smells like juicy fruits with a slight floral burst. I agree that it's not in the same league as perfumes by Dior and Chanel, this is supposed to be girly and fun. It is however, a favourite of mine. Staying power on me when layered is around 3-4 hours. It's light and inoffensive so perfect to wear for work or for those situations that you might be around folk that are sensitive to perfumes. A lot of folk ask me what I'm wearing when I wear this as it does smell really good.
I love this scent as opposed to Love Spell which I'm not that keen on, to me Pure Seduction has it all, fun, flirty and feminine without smelling cheap and nasty. Perfect for the hotter months when wearing musky EDP's don't work as well. I wear it all year round as to me it's an all year round scent.

Decided to get the mist as I had the lotion and the lotion smelled absolutely sinuous. The mist is EXTREMELY sweet and if you're having a headache, steer clear of this stuff. Those who adore sweet fragrances will love this, and I think I also did love it back when I was younger and had the memory of the lotion in my mind. I think the lotion is more well-rounded and balanced. When I received the mist of this I grew sick of it. It was too sweet. People around me either hated it or loved it.
It was very polarizing.
Thinking back now, I hated it. Too sweet. Gives me a headache. I like to smell this on other people but it's not something I would wear myself. Longevity and sillage is heavy, i will give it that. It definitely turns heads.

Before I tried this I used to use the Love Spell regularly. This smells similar to me but even more delicious to the point I stopped using Love Spell. I find the notes listed to be funny because I do not smell florals or plum in this at all. To me, it smells exactly like a strawberry shampoo I used as a child. It is sweet, young, and fun. My wife hardly ever comments on my fragrances and she said I smelled like delicious fruit punch. It also makes a good room spray. I own the body mist and it seems to last hours and has good sillage. It is one of the few body mists I use as I normally stick to perfumes. I would not recommend if you enjoy only florals. It is fresh and fruity.

I bought this a year ago and just gave it away to a friend because it smells BAD. The strawberry note is way too strong for my liking, gave me a headache within seconds. Would not recommend to anyone who has a weak nose.
fatimahazzahra388
I wanted this so bad because i saw good reviews everywhere, I decided to buy one through an online shop a week ago and now I'm currently a wearer. When the first time I smelled this perfume, the first thing that came to my mind was the smell of cheap strawberry perfume which I can find easily at the nearest market. This perfume is strong and if you're sensitive to certain scents like me, then this one will creeps so fast to your lungs the first time you spray it directly. The other bad news is this has a poor longevity, I am the type of person who sweats easily and sweats a lot, plus I live in a tropical country which means I have to deal with super hot weather everyday. So, I think this one can survives only for 15-40 minutes :( I have to re-spray it once an hour, sobs. Now let's talk about the good things, this smell is bad yet good at the same time. Do you get it? No? Me neither. It's hard to explain it. Overall, I conclude this perfume might be kinda disappointing at first but as time goes by, you'll begin to enjoy this smell. It somehow makes me feel like I'm a junior high school student. Though I still experience headache whenever I wear this, I must admit this smell is addicting. For me, pure seduction is like drug. It hurts my head, makes me feel breathless, and gives me bad effects but I still really like to sniff it. Hahaha.
wingkienusanti
I don't quite sure why nobody here notice melon (honey melon not watermelon) at the first spray then it turned into berries. well this is one of the best selling so if you and i have this product, it means we both smells like every other girls in many parts of the world.. and it's pretty seductive. men love this smell. LOL
verity3
Okay, this is only ever going to seduce someone who has a thing for Hawaaiian Punch. But if you're looking for a fragrance to make you say to yourself, "Mmm. STRAWberreh SOOOOOdaaa... heeheeheeheehee..." ...then you need Pure Seduction body mist in your life :D
Some notes lists include casaba melon. Lasts way longer than Love Spell. (May attract bees. Small children might ask you if they can have a drink.)

I had that perfume à few months ago I gave it away because the smell was awful it gave me headache worst perfume on victoria' s secret collection in my opinion
Camilla91
Smells like plastic with berries, not a pleasant smell in my opinion somehow very popular. Got a travel size with my purchase so will use but wouldn't buy myself.
VioletNoir
Pure Seduction is very sexy and seductive fruity scent. i think men like this kind of scent. You can never go wrong with Victoria's secret body mist collection...i havent really found one i didnt like , Pure Seduction is one of my favorites.
CherriedEmpress
I used to have the lotion when I was in college, and I've smelled it on a lot of other girls. It's fun, fresh, and V.S. has perfected in capturing "juicy, wet fruit" in a bottle. It's pretty hard to find scents that really capture the juiciness of fruit.
Last year I bought the Luxe Eau de Parfum, 2.5 oz. I think I got it for $16.
The thing about Pure Seduction in EDP form is that it isn't actually a fine fragrance with developing notes. It wasn't meant to be, and that's okay with me. I didn't expect it to develop beautifully or anything. I bought it for what it was worth. I wanted the smell to last longer.
At the beginning, the eau de parfum smells great, and quite strong. After that, it gets sort of plasticky, a little medicinal and weird, and just fades out. Longevity is poor to moderate. I don't think it lasts any longer than the little EDTs they've sold.
Not sure how the male population feels about it. The one thing that men like, across the board, is sweet and sugary. Mostly vanilla, but sometimes sweet fruity stuff. I see a lot of people are knocking the name and saying it's not sexy... but that's actually what men like... simple, sugary concoctions. They usually don't go for what we think is traditionally seductive, like deep spices or musk overloads. Go read the reviews for Aquolina Pink Sugar. Or better yet, wear the sweetest perfume you have and ask the closest male in proximity if they like it. Try one with a vanilla base. They will probably pick your cheapo sweetie perfume over your $150 complex French treasure.
After my bottle is gone, I won't go out of my way to find another, especially since VS is on a rampage of cheapening everything. The new ones might not smell the same.

Very strong.. I bought it after reading reviews here.. but it smells like medicine on my skin.

I agree with the review below mine. I can't wear Love Spell, but I really like Pure Seduction. It really is like a sweet fruit punch drink.

Lately I am into sweet berry scents and this one is something along my favorites. I am countryside kid, the scent of warm fresh berry jam is my pleasant childhood memory.I love to use body mist at home for relaxation, especially in summer nights. If I go out, I layer it with Midnight Fantasy or Wonderstruck to give it more depth.
It's nice, delicious scent. But no one can convince me it's sexy. I wonder about that "I am sexy fruit bite me" trend myself and shake my head in disbelieve Lol. I am too old to get on that train, folks. But it's lovely as body product and without contest the best in VS garden line.

I got over the scent of this very quickly, it now gives me headaches :-( It's very strong.

Sugar sweet Floral Fruitys are usually not my thing, nor do I consider these kind of scents "sexy" in any way... but I got this in the fragrance mist as part of a Victoria's Secret Gift Pack last Christmas and well, I have a soft spot for anything VS (especially after watching the 2015 show last night). This is just a sugar-sweet, totally girly pink scent. I'd never buy the actual EDT of this but the lotion and mist is bearable and refreshing to spray on in summer when you're not in the mood for perfume.
EDIT: I much prefer this to Love Spell which I also own. Pure Seduction has a fresh, slightly spicy green note (the Freesia) which provides a citrusy zing and takes the cloyingly sweet edge off the plum note, while LS is just purely sweet. It also makes a really nice hair scent spritzed on freshly washed hair!

Pure seduction?! More like "love spell" i can't even tell the difference. In my opinion they smell exactly the same lol.. I hate when they do this... Same scent but they change the name. Oh boy! Still smells good if you enjoy the stronger scent.
Neckromancer
This really does smell a lot like Love Spell. It also smells like it has pomegranate.
fragranceh
i don't understand this fragrance... i got it for a gift and i can't stand it. i think it's too ''in your face'' scent, but then i LOVE when i mix it with amber romance, but the scent alone is not good.
Sinner's Paradise
I tried body mist version of this and it's the type of thing I'd love if I tried it when I was 10.
Now, not so much.
Very strong and reminds me of a scented shampoo/shower gel, it's a nice smell for something you'd use and wash off immediately.
In it's defense, I probably put way too much on a tiny surface, maybe it'd be good if I used it more sparingly and underneath clothes.

men love it! They are totally charmed when i wear it.
Ambergris Intoxication
If you want to smell like straight up kool aid fruit punch for a very short time than this is your gal! The kids love it OH YEAH!
p.s. this isn't some random rude comment. It really smells just like fruit punch kool aid to me. This fragrance is a sweet refreshing fruit drink with 1 cup of sugar per pack! I like it, I just don't want to smell like it everyday. I do rarely use it after a shower.
Why does that feel like an admission of guilt?
...the scent is rarely used not the shower!

Smells SUPER DUPER SEXY, like fruity juicy exotic fruits mixed with sex. Very sexy for the nighttime, date night's or even in the bed with your partner.
carmillajeddah
The freesia is nice, but the plum is a killer! Juicy and tart. I loved it, great for summer. Sillage and longevity are moderate.
Cocotea
Wanted a floral fragrance that wasn't too granny-ish. This fit the bill. Flowers and sour fruit. Also a little powdered drink mix smell in there too. It stays the same from initial spray to drydown. Not bad for what I was expecting. Don't know how seductive I am from smelling like drink mix but I like it. Great longevity and sillage.
x_perfumecrazy_x
I dont know how anyone even likes this. Way to sharp and smells like shampoo
victoriasecret0303
I bought the body mist with the hydrating body lotion. They both smell out of this world!! But very summery (which it is) and teenager girl like (which i am). I'm not sure how long just the mist lasts but when i layer it up it lasts about 3 hours and is rather strong! when you layer it up it becomes impressively strong for a mist.
haleydayne
love this perfume ive went thru 3 bottles of the body spray and still on my first bottle of perfume. perfect mix of fruity and sweet.
AnaHun
I've been avoiding this perfume for such a long time because so many girls wear it and I didn't want to smell like every other girl and though it would smell really generic but someone gave my mom a mini of this and God I was wrong I love this scent SO juicy so fruity I don't care if I smell like every other girl because this is so good, the sillage on me is so poor like I'm applying water on my skin and I have to reapply every now and then, in general a really good summer choice.
b.a.denney
I have this in the EDT, but I'm really not a fan, and I'm wearing it right now. It's what prompted me to leave this review. I like most of VS perfumes, but this one is a "no" for me, as is Lovespell. This is only slightly more tolerable than Lovespell. I've smelled Selena Gomez's perfume, which many say is similar, but I think that one is nice, where Pure Seduction is too sharp, and gets really cloying. I could probably tolerate the body spray better than the EDT, but I doubt I'll buy that after disliking the EDT so much. It's just too something, and I love sweet perfumes, so it isn't that. I think it has a sharp smell to it, if that makes any sense. I'll have to find someone to gift my full bottle to, as even my teen daughter doesn't like this one.....
juliana349
Love this so much! The fragrance mist is the best.
It smells so sweet and pretty and fresh. It kind of reminds me of red candy.

Pure Seduction is the exact description of fresh fruity sweet scent. It's sweet and reminiscent of bubble gum yet remains fresh and not toothache inducing. Bought a complete set for mama today, she loves it. Utterly the kind of scent screaming to the world that you're happy. Very nice. When my mama finished her set, maybe I'll buy one for myself.
Luminan
It's like candy with a nice fresh breeze. Aqua kiss Reminds me of swimming hall And this is like the Café of the swimming hall, where you buy your candies. Ahhh. Lovely.
iplbc27
Wow. now that's a scent that gives justice to its name! It's got a dressy scent that makes it perfect to wear on dates and semi-formal/formal events. This scent reminds me of jackfruit, I don't quite know why. But I like this scent, it's perfect for girls on verge of crossing the barrier from teenager to young adult.
Eaugirlspirit
I just need to write a review for this because it's been a long-time favorite since High School (the same bottle!) and I have always reached for it to feel sexy and for that extra little bit of confidence.
When I spray it on the juiciness overwhelms me and I feel like I have just landed on an island of my choice, and the air is wafting about me with scents of beautiful citrus and tropical fruits.
I just love the way this scent transports me in its simple way. It also makes me feel a little wild...
And as I age, I reach for this mainly because it makes me feel excitedly youthful and adventurous, the way I used to feel when I wore this as a teenager.
I asked for more of this for Christmas and I'm crossing my fingers!

Nice fresh, sexy scent for during the day. Love wearing it on days I am going to the beach as it is a summer scent to me. It does not last very long, but I am happy to re-apply. I also spray this in my room to freshen it up, and on my bed sheets when changing my sheets every 2 weeks - love the freshness to it.
tyekristopher
a lot of people seem to gravitate towards love spell but for me I find pure seduction to the better of the two. Pure seduction is one of those scents that instantly drives me wild and in a good way! it is so yummy and juicy ! I find it stays on pretty long I go back and forth between this and vanilla lace both of my all time favorites!
anastasija777
Fruity, simple scent. Smells delicious but nothing special. I got complimented several times while I was wearing this. I like it, it's worth the price.
Thongchan
I adore this smell and I just love Victoria's Secret perfumes. This one is my main favorite, because it's very sweet and fruity. I'd prefer to wear it at night, because in the day, the sweat just ruins the smell and believe me, it does not smell too good. :/
Overall, I really love "Pure Seduction" and I'd buy it again, along with the lotion itself.

Amazing this smells like a fruit basket.
Sensa07
I lovee this scent very much, but sometimes it gets too sweet...
Pepperflower
Candy, fruit, candied fruit, and candied flowers. I am guilty, I had this as a body souffle and spray when I was in middle school&high school. I would never wear this now. Way too sweet, juicy and strong. It was fun being a desperate teen wearing this. The perfect description of what this smells like and reminds me of, is what a guy in high school told me "smells like pretty panties!"
Snicole82
Juicy Hawaiian Punch. Not a fragrance to be taken seriously. More of a light, summery, refreshing fragrance.
Evanescent
Very sweet and fruity, I went crazy on it the moment I first smelled it.
jeffersonfaudan
all Victoria Secret scents are beautiful if only people will PROPERLY wear them... please don't wear this when it's hot and you'll sweat... this may be a light fragrance but it lasts given at least 4 hours and having it mixed with the heat and sweat just ruins the scent... please wear it in the evening... the advantage of any VS scent is you can use it for layering..when you have a perfume and you want to come up with something different, you can spray any of their scents along with your chosen scent and create a unique and unidentified scent... it blends well despite most VS scents are very straightforward without any scent changes...

I loved this scent when I first bought in while still in high school (circa 2005-2006). Smelled exactly like fruit punch and at the time I loved that. However, they have reformulated the scent several times since then and it doesn't smell the same as I remember. The newer version has more of a floral note under the initial blast of fruitiness. I actually think that's better for me now as a 25-year-old. I still like this fragrance, but it isn't very sophisticated. It's fun for summer weekends but I couldn't wear this to work.
leahjay1990
I received the whole set (body wash, lotion, and body spray) as a gift a few years ago and I absolutely loved this scent! It's fruity and girly and perfect for young women or older women with a young spirit.
cndylu4
I love this scent and so does my husband. In fact, he asked me not to wear it to work because too many men would like it! I don't think it smells exactly like Love Spell, which I happen to love too. It is very fruity but in a good way. I think the name fits it well.
peachypixie
Red Jell-o! Red lollipops! Red gummy bears!
All this coming from "red plum" with a fizzy burst of freesia. It straight up smells delicious, sweet and more fruity than floral. It does remind me of Selena Gomez, which I also have. Layering the two is AMAZING.
For fans of more sophisticated and powdery scents, stay away. Sweet candy fans should step right up ♥
This frag is a people pleaser. I'm proud to have the mist, lotion, and body wash combo.

Was a gift and is a guilty pleasure because it is so popular where I live.
It is very popular for a reason.
It's exotic, sensual, I pick up pomegranate though I do not see it as a note on here.
I had, however been looking for an amazing fresh chamomile and this comes close to fresh chamomile. The freesia gives it the seductiveness.

Smells like bubblegum.
I spray it after shower, going to supermarket, running errands etc.
Lovely for beach ! <3
I have the body mist and it smells quite strong, so just go a little light while spraying this, maybe 3-4 sprays is more than enough.
Also, I'm not a fan of new bottle packaging, liked the previous round bottle packaging of body mist!

This smells amazing! So fruity and flirty. It gives me a happy uplifting feeling when I spray it on and I love to mix lovespell with it. It actually smells a lot like lovespell but sweeter. Lovespell lacks sweetness for me so that is why I love to mix it with Pure Seduction. This is the kind of smell that would get attention, but the only downfall is the longevity is a little weak. This one is SO fruity, I barely smell any florals, just fruit. I like it like that though.
brimanrique
Super sweet and sexy, not my everyday, but my husband love it!
izainbox
Fruity - sweet, syrupy and it catches attention. Good sillage and staying power. Not my cup of tea, it's too loud for me. I gave mine (a bottle of VS pure seduction body mist) to my sister.
chrissyc15
I am typically not what you would call a VS kind of girl and usually do not like many of their fragrances because I think they can be overwhelming. However, I got this as a Christmas gift one year and fell in LOVE! It is PERFECT for the summer time!!!! Very refreshing, sexy, and flirty!!! I smell bursts of strawberry and florals. I love sweet smells and this one is definitely sweet but has just the right about of citrus and florals to give it a fresh smell without being overly sweet. My husband LOVES when I wear this!
cyclone1391
Smells good in the bottle, smells like gummy bears on the skin. Nope. I was looking for a cute, casual, girly scent and opted for Pure Daydream instead which is going well so far. My favorite scent for warm weather is Oh Lola! and it's very floral and light and fresh and Pure Day Dream is not as fresh and a little more candied but still good especially if just going to school, or the store, etc.
elvasss
I love this fragrance mist! It smells like sweet lollipops in the beginning. When it dries down, it smells like red jello. Very yummy, but not loud. My fav VS fragrance mist.
shrewd
Sweet floral smell. I have to agree that the dry down is very much like Love Spell.
Mochahantas
Okay, I can see how people can say this is reminiscent of Love Spell. It does have the same, sparkling, juicy, yet fun essence as Love Spell (LS). However, it has a mind of it's own.
To me, LS is more pineapple and a bit more spunky/sharp. This, is more rounded, juicy, and fresh.
This is one of my favorite VS Garden scents. It's so carefree, it doesn't think too hard. It's juicy and fresh. You can wear it any season and it won't be too cloying. It also isn't too loud or abrasive.
My last 2 perfume compliments have been this. One, I was asked if I ate candy and the other, I was told that I smell good. I like it for compliment, carefree days. I also wear it when I wanna be safe and not challenge myself.
Bad Parts about this: The lasting power SUCKS. I have the shower gel, the lotion, the mist, the EDT, and the limited edition EDP. The scent from the shower gel doesn't linger past the shower but it smells awesome while showering, the mist only about 1-2 hours, the lotion about an hour and it has a chemical-sour nature to it (will not repurchase it--trying the cream next), and the EDT, 1-2 hours. Even the limited edition EDP, lasts about 2 hours on me. I just wish VS would step it up with the lasting power.
Do I recommend? Hell yes!

it does smell exactly like Love Spell when it dries down.

Smells fruity delicious :) you can really smell the plum and the melon. The name pure seduction fits it:)
Moonwalk Memorie
This takes me back to elementary school and eating melon or drinking Hawaiian Punch. Light, sweet, and (re)fresh(ing).
Thanks to this, I know straightforward fruit drink scents are just weird on me.

Perfect for all women wanting to seduce a fat man. Fruit punch, jolly ranchers and fruit roll ups. That's what pure seduction smells like. Even so, I really like this one and so does my man (who doesn't eat sweets). He even prefers it over my more expensive perfumes. This is a light scent,perfect for the summer time no musk, spice or vanilla. The lasting power is pretty good especially for the price. I layer the body lotion for this one with the body spray and have gotten compliments several hours later.
MariamPasha
Personally, I believe this perfume is for teenagers. The scent contains fruity notes. This had been my only favourite VS spray and a signature during middle-high school. Trust me, you get a lot of compliments from guys ;)
guitarravolador
*lip smack* hmm... That's Hawaiian Punch!
rosembloom
I am in awe at this precious little jewel! I recieved it in a most wonderful swap with Red347 and cannot part with it so it follows me everywhere, literally. Is this candy sweet??? oh yeah! Watermelon and Plum tropical Punch in a bottle. The edt has amazing longevity on me and turns into a sultry evening scent which is almost musky. A very fruity girly perfume which I truly adore and that brings out the child in me in the opening , then, calls out to the woman I am during the opulent drydown. I am aware not everyone likes this fragrance, but could we please avoid those 'pukey' reviews please??? (yes, u V!) . I got so many compliments on this that I know it is very lovely. I recommend if you like Heiress, Love Spell, and those lucsious plum-sugar notes! Thanx hun!!!!!
zombieldehyde
I really liked it at first. Smelled girly and flirty but after constant use,the smell was much more stronger for me. Plus the liquid has changed color. A shade darker. People who loved this perfume are my guy classmates. A guy friend of mine uses this perfume too. He says he likes the feminine touch of the scent.
Jenny Zhu
When I first smelt it, I really really liked it and I got it immediately. Now I kinda regret buying it. After a while, I just felt that it's way too fruity for me and it was too strong. My Dad always tells me that this smelt bad LOL.
punkinfaye
One of my favourite VS scents,at one time I had the hand cream,splash,perfume and body butter.
This is a very pink fruity fragrance,aptly descibed as fruit punchy.I think it smells exactly like the taste of Minute Maid Fruit Punch,so delicious!
Not multi faceted or sophisticated,but a great refreshing summer smell.It's great to layer on the products before bed so that your sheets end up smelling amazing for days!

Hawaiian Punch in a spray bottle. Love it after an evening bath with the matching shower gel. Simple, but yummy, one of VS's better body care scents in my opinion, along with Vanilla Lace and Amber Romance.
Ashes19
Very sweet, I want to drink it half the time! It makes me think of fruit punch, oddly enough though, it doesn't smell juvenile at all. I wear this when I want to feel delicious.
camarillo
good perfume.. totally fruity.. I like it^^
vattenmelon
ok..to be honest. ive had this for a while now and ......no this is horrible :/ something about it makes me wanna puke! to review, its a reallybad fragrance mist, it such a strong scent that you must either hate or love it. i hate it actually secret craving is better. it just doesnt smell good! its like: "whaaaaa" what is this?" im afraid to blind buy any of victorias secret body mists now and they only have it online.too bad because i love the bottles!:D
vattenmelon
okey...i have it right now and whoooaa what a smell..very strong! very sweet, i definitly smell freesia. i think its better than VS Secret Craving.
sweet sweet sweet, almost overwhelming but im glad i purchased it, if i want a romantic strong scent i put this on. i would call this perfume "dark" not really fruity, i smell more rose than fruit, its not the best ive smelled but if i want to stick out im gonna wear this, and its a lovely bottle:)

This has red plum and fresia. It's best spritzed for a hot date :) It's great for a night event.

Smells EXACTLY like VS Love Spell.

rhettlove
For some reason, guys go crazy over this scent. I remember once putting on this in my room, and it was a full house, we had all the cousins and their friends at home. The moment I opened my door, all the guys came in asking me what perfume was I wearing, it was everywhere in my room. They loved it soooooo much. That was such a weird experience lol...I had to share it. I personally think, its pretty average.
Ginnie A
Gorgeous!!!Blind bought this based on reviews,so glad I did,fresh fruity juicy colour RED is what I smell,love Love spell but this just beats it!!very interesting smell,Adore it so much!!
piahellgren
For being "what it is" this truly delivers! I love the fruit in it and the mild, peppery freesia. It is as good as any Escada summer fragrance. If I happen to take an extra shower before bed I always spritz this on- lovely, alluring and actually quite original. And yes, guys do love it and I am speaking guys in their 40ies! ;-)
gjie
i hv the pure seduction EDT...it is all sweet and fruity perfume for me...this does not come in layer...what i smell is a sweet plum with a hint of floral and it last quite sometime on me...a sunny day perfume for me...
marissa.nowell
My favorite VS fragrance. I've tried many, and this one to me is a perfect balance of fruity and floral and all in all smells fantastic. Much better than Love Spell.
4scents
I walked into the store, sprayed the tester on my wrist during a Christmas shopping day out and purchased this scent with the sparklies for the season. I got a lot of compliments which really surprised me! I would definitely repurchase this because the plumb scent unfolds beautifully on my skin. A smart buy and great pick me up styled scent for sure!
stephanie.cheng.108
My boss came back from her vacation in Australia and presented me with a bottle of Pure Seduction and Love spell, which she asked me to choose one for myself. I didn't smell them when I made the decesion cause they were in her hands, but I was intrigued by the name, so I chose Pure Seduction. Lol ;P
First spray was when I was at home after taking a shower and it was super duper sweet, fruity, juicy and very fresh. I don't find it seductive in any way cause for me it smells more like a childish scent. It's more like, 10 year old girls spraying this on themselves to attract sweet tooth boys... If u work with kids, this scent will make u very popular. ;)
Other times, the smell reminds me of hotel stays. The best time to use this fragrance mist would be after a relaxing shower in ur hotel room and then going for an evening walk at the beach smelling sweet n fresh.

It is a very strong plum scent I've ever tried..! If you like a strong and sweet fruity fragrance mist, this is it!
Hema277
I smell like i have been blasted and buried with sweet plums n peppery freesia. Fantastically sweet and syrupy..
A decent skin scent that do not last long but unstiches my childnessness.. My fav for now.. <3

Dry down is waaaaay better than the initial starting notes
initial notes are like a disturbing cough syrup but once it settles down it smells like a yummy pink BUBBLE GUM

This is my favorite Vicky's scent. The plum overwhelms! But in a good way... It's strong and feminine, the name perfectly goes with it and really holds on skin even if it's not a proper perfume. I have a great memory of the first time I used it, it involves a handsome boy and lots of fun and kissess. Ufff. That smell just brings me back there.
keepinitclassy
I was looking around at VS while my friend was getting fitted , and I came across this perfume. I ended up purchasing the 30 ML bottle. It is definitely NOT floral. 100% fruity. I am not much for strong fruity scents , but I will be repurchasing once I am out. the minute you smell this perfume , you are definitely in love. I would only recommend this to people 25 and younger , not an adult scent. it sprays on light and not strong. I use this as a body spray rather than perfume.
Angeldelight900
Not sure if this is the same as the forbidden pure seduction, but the forbidden one is so gorgeous and more stronger than the other one i have called secret craving, its kind of like Britney spears fantasy, fruity and seductive, love it, I've used a whole bottle in about 3 months lol need to get me some more :D
TallTales
I like this one more so for the memories than anything else. It's one of the first fragrances I had ever really used on a daily basis. It smells quite nice; the melon is prominent on me. Virtually no lasting power to be found though.
Snowfairy
The scent notes listed for this is all wrong. It smells like a bit of cherry with vanilla and grapefruit,it's very sweet and clean smelling and smells nothing like Lovespell, Lovespell smells like grape juice
tellita.marinera
I love it !!! is great :)My favorite smell

Edited review:
This was my first fragrance ever from Victoria's Secret. I loved it then, and I still love it now, even though it isn't one that I wear very frequently. It is a deliciously ripe, juicy scent, fruity in a more rounded way rather than being sugary. It is youthful and in many ways intoxicating. I just love plum in fragrances, and this one was my first love. It is linear, no development or change, not complex in the slightest, but I still enjoy it, and I will never outgrow it. Even if I rarely wear it now I still pull it out every now again and smell it just for memory's sake. I think that it is unique in the Fantasies line, as many of the scents that are emerging now have such similar smells to one another.. I miss the old fragrances that have been discontinued over the years from the Secret Garden, and am grateful that this one at least has survived.

i cant stand this fragrance. its overly sickly candy sweet that i smell on all the girls in middle and high school. i find it very cheap smelling...
ShannonKimberly
At first smell, I found it overpowering and garish, but after letting the lotion linger, it really seduced. Yes, it is a bit forward, very fruity and perhaps immature, but the lotion is intoxicating on my skin. I want to lick myself!
isabel.b.muradas
Really nice and fresh, perfect for summer.
Its fun and simple, juvenil exciting seduction

I don't think this scent is for seduction really.. I bought one because of the name itself. But I was disappointed. I don't think that fruity scents are for seduction. In fact it has poor sillage and poor longevity. It's one of the scent I don't feel confident to use. Personally never blind buy VS scents.. better smell the scents first before purchasing, some of their names are quite unsuitable.

I have the pre-refurmulated version of this, as shower gel, body spray and lotion. Here is what each one smells like:
Lotion- Sweet, juicy plum smell. My favorite product from this scent.
Perfume- Mostly, bubbly freesia. There is also that sweet plum in it, making a very nice balance.
Shower gel- Plum and melon. Fruity, fruity, and... Fruity
Now, about lasting power:
Lotion- About 10 hours... You can smell it outside the room, even ir the door is closed...
Perfume- Weak lasting power, I have to reaply it. And it keeps close to skin, no radiation at all.
Shower gel- After the bath, you can still get a light plum-y smell from your skin.
Good line, great smell, not that great body sprays.

Coomplicated feelings towards this fragrance. It first comes off smelling like medicine but dries down to a beautiful plum with a bunch of cherries. Definitely a juvenile scent.
Great if you want a simple refreshment in the morning but dont expect it to last.

I am not a very big fan of Love Spell so I was so surprised that I find myself reaching for this again and again when the two smell really similar.
It is fruity--like juicy cherries with citrus that makes my mouth water. Plus, it uplifts my mood for some reason. It is quite addictive too. I am just a bit scared of wearing this around my man---I have a feeling he'd toss me out of the window if I do. Well--maybe not but still.
Overall, I really, really like it now and I am only a few uses away from buying back-ups.

A really nice scent to keep in the bathroom behind the toilet.
Seriously, restroom deodorant smells better than this!

I like this one, but would like it better if the chamomile were stronger. There are enough fruity perfumes, especially from VS -- the chamomile adds a unique note and I wish it stood out more.

noope.too strong for me. gives me headache.

The very first time I smelled this, I knew I would continue to buy it forever. I get soooo many compliments on this its crazy. If you dont have it, get it.

I love this one. I have it in body mist, and I really do think it smells like cherry kool-aid. Really sweet, and definitely fruity. :D
strawberri_bear94
I purchased the fragrance mist a year or so ago and I really loved it!
It smells to me like watermellon, blueberries, and strawberries. Not too flowery, mostly fruity. It is very sweet (not too much) and zingy. It is definently a fruity scent. To me, its fragrance rivals in popularity to Love Spell. I got tons of complements.
Sadly, I don't have my bottle anymore. I suspect it was stolen in the lockeroom or by one of my friends! (It just smells THAT good)

I don`t get any of the listed notes.
To me this smells like water melon and strawberry, mixed with a softer and less tart Lovespell. It actually smells pink.
Very very nice and yummie!

a lot of people love this fragrant on me. I tried it on at the VS store and didn't think much of it. Then I received a bunch of compliments . I like the body spray more than EDP. The EDP of pure seduction smells a bit too strong like a room deodorizer. I sometimes get headache from the EDP. I think this fragrant is probably very popular among young girls and not so much among matured folks. I personally love this scent
cesalica
oh and I forgot to add, I have a 3/4 full bottle for swaps!

One word: candy. I like it. Not crazy for it, but i like the playful smell once in a while. A little overpowering for me at times. But hey, its not too bad.

Pure Seduction is a nice and simple fruity scent. I personally have to be in the right mood to wear it, though. While it's fruity, I think it smells kind of strong sometimes.
The notes are very simple in this: plum, freesia, and chamomile. I can smell all three of these in the fragrance if I really think about it, but ultimately, Pure Seduction smells just like fruit punch. If you like fruit punch, then you will LOVE this.
Some people say that this is purely a Summer scent, and I can see why ... But I think this fragrance can be pulled off in the colder seasons of the year too. There's a certain "crispness" to the scent that makes me think of the really fresh air once the weather starts to become colder, for some reason. Plus, the fruit punch scent can smell really strong to me sometimes, and stronger scents are more compatible with cold weather, in my opinion. I think this can be pulled off as an all year round fragrance.
As for the age range that should wear this, I think it's more compatible for younger people, but it doesn't have an immature quality to the likes of Beauty Rush Candy Baby or Aquolina Pink Sugar. I can see older people enjoying Pure Seduction too.

One of my closest friends has this as her school scent, so I sniff it on a daily basis. I really don't get the hype about this and Love Spell. The first time my best friend used it, I was alarmed by how cheap and tacky the scent could be, since it was supposedly one of the most popular from Victoria's Secret after Love Spell.
Over time, I have grown used to it and stopped putting my nose to the nozzle of my bottle of Noir Tease every time she whips this out, and I have come to associate with her. However, sadly, this does not mean I like it any less. It still smells the same. Synthetic, like fruit punch, cheap and simple. Not a scent I would wear.
That being said, this is less popular than Love Spell, which I am thankful for. This is slowly gaining momentum, however, and as bad as Love Spell is, at least it doesn't smell like thin cough syrup.
Time for me to stock up on more bottles of Noir Tease to sniff at in my bags.

Hi I got this one from my best friend who went to NY to visit her family.
The fragrance is very refreshing and fruity. My nose detects some tropical fruits like mango and passionfruit even though they are not in there ;)
Also, I can smell some melon , freesia and plums. A very very nice and really summery "seductive" fragrance I would say.
The one I have is a shimmer body mist and it's gorgeous!!! beautiful in the sun :-) a must have for holiday abroad -gives your tan a fantastic glow, shimmer and fragrance.

I got this as a gift from my fiancee's sister, it's my first VS scent, and my favorite body-spray, It doesn't smell too synthetic like many other fruity body-sprays. It's yummy but refreshing, and quite long-lasting for what it is (3 hours), I love spraying it all over my body after a shower, whether early in the morning, or after my bedtime bath. It's the scent I reach for alot when I'm lounging about the house or don't feel like wearing perfume. I'd like to get the lotion and shower gel one of these days.
sketchgal
My favorite scent from victorias secret, i wear this at home or when i go to the beach. My husband will always say i always smell so good coz this last for few hours. Its sweet scent but in a nice way not over powering kind. This is good for summer makes u feel fresh and feminine. Good as room freshener too :) i like to spray it on the bed sheets and it kinda stand on its name " pure seduction" haha...
tygrrrlily505
Definitely my favorite body spray! I will buy this again and again!
laura95
I almost didn't buy it purely because of the name. But I'm glad I did, love thr fruity smell and it lasts all day! Can be overpowering though, you really only need a couple of sprays. I would for sure reccomend this.
Nicolee
This makes me want to drink a gallon of spiked fruit punch everytime I smell it :) fun, fruity, sexy
Jellybean
oh so fresh:) plum flower, plum and freesia are magnificently combined. This is the only one I actually like from their body mist collection. For anytime/day wear. Inexpensive and most importantly VS body mist winner!
horseluv99
I just bought this fragrance because I really liked it when my friend wore it. I love the fruity, floral, and sweet notes in it too! I would definately recommend his to anyone who likes fruity, floral, or sweet scents!
Whit
I want to buy this, but I don't want to buy it. It smells really strong from the bottle, but I bet it would be really long lasting. I guess you could say I have a love/hate realtionship with this. Sometimes, when I'm out shopping, I'll swing by VS and smell it; some days I love it and other days I hate it, which has kept me from buying it. So, I don't know, I don't to pay full price and end up completely hating it, so Ebay might be an option. Anyway, I do agree with the over the top fruitiness, which would be good on a summer day, and I really think the lasting power would be good as well, judging from how strong it is. And I do agree that it is flirty and fun, but I don't really think it's "seductive" smelling.
Perfumedsecrets
I avoided the garden line scents for so long. They were overused by the masses, but I bought Pure Seduction. It's better than Love Spell, very fruity, not much floral. What's appealing about the scent is how it manages to smell fresh and it's so long lasting. This body spray lasts longer than most perfumes.
WitchyWoman727
Definitely a scent for younger girls. Not "seductive" to me, I think Amber Romance is way more "seductive".
My teenage neighbor who I can not stand drowns herself in this and it lingers in the apt hallway. mostly just smells like she doesnt shower and bathes in this instead lol.
ANYWAY, I have a small bottle of it now and I am not too sure how much I will actually use it, its over the top fruity/girly. It's not that it smells bad but just not my taste I guess. It's a teeny type of frag, not a sexy one for sure.

Fragaria
As much as I hate to, I must agree with Kawaii, this is truly juvenile and not really "seductive". But lemme tell YOU....this stuff is WONDERFUL in every other way there is! I sprayed this, and I found something sweet as kool aid, literally, and juvenile...or just fun, SEXY fun and giggly, sexy SEXY fun and playful in bed?????? It sure turns ME on! Could that be a form of seduction? This would have to be sex kitten perfection as far as I'm concerned. Pink sheets under a landslide of fluffy comforters and pillows with ruffles galore, colors of clothes draped about everywhere very carefully so as not to cause one tiny wrinkle, oh and yes, perfumes and stuffed animals, old lamps with lacy shades and colored red light bulbs, very "girly" and child-like but so very adultishly fun and seductive! A man's playground! Oh, the scent, yes, it's nice I guess....
evy.gc
I LOVE IT! IT LAST FOREVER ON ME!... THE WILD FRESIA IS JUST DELICIOUS! VERY SEXY BUT NOT IN A GIRLY SUBTIL WAY... ITS KIND OF LOUD BUT NEVER TACKY OR CHEAP. YOU WONT REGRET IT!
colorblindlove
LOVE this stuff! This is the scent that I wear everyday when I don't know what else to wear because it's always perfect for anytime. It smells like fruit punch, but it's not too immature.
dovey
when u first spray it , it smells like an annoying cherry cough syrup ....but the dry down is sweet I recommend the body lotion & shower gel than the mist
nad315
for me, it is the best smell among VS collection. very seductive and smell a little bit like strawberry(my friends said they feel like they want to eat me..haha). i got the EDT which already discontinued (so sad...) coz the EDT stays smell from 8am until 5pm. i definitely love this one! =)
comellotee
adorable and the best perfume that i had before...its like yummy and also think to food it...
piluna
In the first spritz it smells like cheap oozy shampoo. But after it settles down I can smell more of the good stuff. Melon, plum and also apple. It's a little bit
fruity and very sugary.
It's light and you have to spray a lot to make it last. I get compliments and grown ups and children ask what's that smell it just so good! I get in a light and positive mood when wearing this ;D

This body mist makes me happy! It's kinda fresh in a sweet way. But i have never received any compliments for this, not even from my fiance. But thats ok, i don't really care as long as i feel happy when wearing this!
kamiseta24
Amazing scent! Love love love. This is not a kinna scent you'll easily get bored with it.
I've got so many compliments from women and guys from wearing this scent. They say the smell is playful but also sexy and irresistible. Must have :)!
And now..already 3 times repurchased. Hope they won't discontinue this

I agree that this smells a lot like Love Spell. Comparing them side by side, I can smell the difference but wearing them separately, I can't tell which is which. This smells better in the bottle or as an air freshener to me than on the skin. I wish I could get the fruity sweet notes that others are getting from this.
xstitchalanna
EDT review. I'm not sure what it is about this perfume, I never would have thought of it as seductive since it's a sweet fruity floral. I have been proved wrong many times on this, I have had countless compliments from men telling me how good I smell. I must add it's really awkward telling them what I'm wearing when I'm asked! It does have some similarity to Love Spell but not much. It really only has a few notes to it. I can smell the freesia and mellon notes to it. It reminds me of a real yummy candy. This one is awesome, among my favorites! Thats saying a lot because I lean to liking more oriental scents. I hope VS decides to bring back the EDT. This is probably best suited to the younger group, or young at heart. A good daytime fragrance for the spring and summer. Lasts about 4 hours.
fawnydawny
this is nothing new or exciting but it sure is yummy. this is edible but in a fresh way, like it isn't foody (though I do love some foody perfumes) but it is a refreshing sort of delectable that I quite love. The body lotion is good and like other reviewers have stated, it lasts all day.
Thandar
Although it is pure fruity scent,it's OK for me.It is not strong not too sweet.
DresdenDoll
Something about this does remind me of Love Spell, but this one is deeper, less clean and clear like Love Spell. It actually has a Mitsouko feel to it! Smells much less fruity on the skin than in the bottle and has that Mitsouko seductive trail that lingers and captures. A little bit of freesia, ripened plum, not fresh and fruity plum and something somewhat musky, I'm guessing the soothing creaminess of chamomile. To me this is Mitsouko for beginners.
EllenYaSoHawt
VERY similar to Love Spell. Everyone thinks I'm wearing Love Spell when I wear this, so I might as well just buy Love Spell. I don't think that it's seductive at all. It's fun and sweet, but not all that sexy...just really fruity and youthful.
Mistress Eva
To me, sweet and sugary doesn't equal seduction -- though it is not necessarily a bad scent. Surprisingly complex and enjoyable, but not what I would wear to seduce anyone -- I have far more effective [fragrance] weapons for that purpose.
smartypants1562000
Love this scent !!! It smells sweet and sugary. It will be sprayed on to lift my mood from drab to fab. Just makes you happy when you wear it. who doesnt love fruit punch and plums<3<3. My hubby loves to smell this on me. The shower gel and lotion keep their scent the longest when used together one after another. then refresh with the body mist.
bbbonbon
I have to say that I've only tried VS's body mists, but this is one of the best after my favorite, Island Waters (already discontinued). Anyway,it is very similar to Love Spell and Forever Romance which I already had wore and left because I got tired of them, too sweet I guess!
blakie44
Nothing seductive about this one. It smells like melon and nothing else..
janhvi.fairy
I love this! It lasts for a long time and I received compliments everytime I wore it. It is a mood-lifter and among VS' best scents...one of my favourites.
JulieLadyBug122
I just have the fragrance mist of this and while it smells amazing there are just so many scents out there that smell better to me. I do use it every once in awile but it just isn't my favorite. I could see how other people love it though. Does any one else think that Bath and Body Works Bali Mango Smells EXACTLY like this. I had to return Bali Mango because I already have this.
servana
Ughhh, I don't like it. It smells like love spell except with a very strong note of burnt rubber.

It is true that Pure Seduction is pure fruit punch bubblegum, but hey, as so many other people have noted, it IS a guy-magnet!

Pure Seductions starts with a really fresh watermelon chewing gum smell similar to the one from Pretty in Pink, however, there’s a twirl of really sweet (synthetic, slightly plastic, high-voltage fruity sweet) echo-y so-called ‘blueberry’ or any kind of sweet berry smell in the teenager fruity floral perfume range.
Then it gets weird, a Play-Doh smell creeps in, similar to that in Pretty In Pink, also from Victoria’s Secret, and just like nearly all of the VS fragrances, it is quite linear.
Pure Seduction is like Love Spell wrapped in Pretty in Pink, all from VS. I’m not a fan of their weird plastic echo-y fruity smell, if you don’t like any one of the above, you wouldn’t enjoy much of the other two from those I mentioned above either.

I like this perfume.
This was a favorite of mine, not too long ago.
And I always thought this was the seductive type.
I spritzed it on one day when I was looking in my perfume cabinet.
And I wore the fragrance for the entire day!
Very sweet and sexy.
Guys love this perfume.

Pure Seduction is one of my favorites from the Secret Garden collection. I don't find it that "seductive" but rather more fun and youthful. I love fruity scents and that's pretty much all this is, with a more mature twist. It is one of the stronger scents from this collection. My favorite one, Secret Charm, fades within an hour even when I spray it ALL OVER while this stays on all day.
lafefe
If someone had told me that I would have liked a simple recipe including plum and melon, I would have never believed that! I don't like these two single notes but the overall composition is nice and irresistible! Very fruity, mmm so sexy! It's a nice surprise!
MakenzieFaith
this perfume smells good when you first put it on but after a while it starts to stink in the room you sprayed it in. gives me a massive headache.
AveParfum
I like this fragrance. It's a very sweet and juicy scent. While it remains very close to a fruity scent for little girls, the freesia adds a touch of depth to it. It's reminiscent of fragrances that are too sugary sweet for me to wear as EDT, but it makes for a nice lotion or shower gel.
fragaholic79
Its a juicy summertime cocktail. Love the melon in this.Sweet and lush. Nothing complex about it. Pure fruit punch. I have received compliments every time I have worn this, just last week an elderly uncle wanted to know what smelled so heavenly so he could get it for his niece and I was too embarrassed to tell him the name of this so I just made up some name that doesn't exist hehe.
la_beba
pure seduction, well this is one of the best seller from VS..while i don't like love spell, pure seduction is just ok..fruity floral..sweet melon & plum, i can smell this in pure seduction..i like it for day use, casual wear..not long lasting..but the edt is small enough to carry in my hand bag..so re-spray is not a big deal.

sooo sexy! smells great. i'm sure every guys love it. just like its name "pure seduction"!

This is my favorite Vicky's scent. The plum overwhelms! But in a good way... It's strong and feminine, the name perfectly goes with it and really holds on skin even if it's not a proper perfume. I have a great memory of the first time I used it, it involves a handsome boy and lots of fun and kissess. Ufff. That smell just brings me back there.
Atomikbomb_
Yup. I absolutely can attest to some of the previous comments about this; it's like some sort of catnip for men...and aptly named.
This was a good signature scent for me at the time though (age 16-18), and it didn't clash with any season. I clicked "summer/night", but it definitely could be worn at any time. It wasn't ever too heavy, but it can withstand heat or cold, I actually still admire it's perfomance and I can't usually claim the same thing for other VS/BBW productions (I can't speak for current formulations of course, it seems as if everything has weakened lately).
This was an attractive dark berry/plum fragrance with white florals, but I didn't personally find it too syrupy or overkill. It had a slightly tart note too (rhubarb maybe?) and I felt like it helped balance and offset the sugared fruit. It isn't the most sophisticated fragrance, but it's legitimately appealing.
**Update**I found this buried beneath some clothes! I thought I had thrown it out. It lost all of it's pink color, but it still smells the same, and my recall was absolutely correct; I stand by my entire review.
Funny how this isn't something I would gravitate toward nowadays, but I'm swept up entirely in youthful nostalgia. I love this for the memories, and it STILL has better longevity than a lot of things.
An odd side note, but it smells a little like BBW's "Frosted Cranberry" candle.

Perfect for all women wanting to seduce a fat man. Fruit punch, jolly ranchers and fruit roll ups. That's what pure seduction smells like. Even so, I really like this one and so does my man (who doesn't eat sweets). He even prefers it over my more expensive perfumes. This is a light scent,perfect for the summer time no musk, spice or vanilla. The lasting power is pretty good especially for the price. I layer the body lotion for this one with the body spray and have gotten compliments several hours later.

I got this as a gift from my fiancee's sister, it's my first VS scent, and my favorite body-spray, It doesn't smell too synthetic like many other fruity body-sprays. It's yummy but refreshing, and quite long-lasting for what it is (3 hours), I love spraying it all over my body after a shower, whether early in the morning, or after my bedtime bath. It's the scent I reach for alot when I'm lounging about the house or don't feel like wearing perfume. I'd like to get the lotion and shower gel one of these days.

This takes me back to elementary school and eating melon or drinking Hawaiian Punch. Light, sweet, and (re)fresh(ing).
Thanks to this, I know straightforward fruit drink scents are just weird on me.

I really liked it at first. Smelled girly and flirty but after constant use,the smell was much more stronger for me. Plus the liquid has changed color. A shade darker. People who loved this perfume are my guy classmates. A guy friend of mine uses this perfume too. He says he likes the feminine touch of the scent.
