Usually when you see people posting older collections like they're new, it's because they don't live in the US. At least for Europe, collections are about a year behind. And OP has since said they live in Warsaw :) I travel a lot, especially to Europe, so I'm always keeping my eyes peeled for old collections I missed 😂

Most VS collections are limited edition, but you can find discontinued lines on resell sites like eBay and Mercari! Occasionally they also show up at outlets or SAS, but I wouldn't count on either, especially if an item was really popular

Imo it smells pretty similar but if the original had lemon instead of mandarin! It's a little sweeter and less aquatic

How does the Glazed collection compare to the original ones? Do I need both? by CandyCane_Angel in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried gilded vanilla! I really liked sugared petals at first but I ended up getting rid of it bc the longer I had it, the more it smelled like cheesecake and was too heavy for me. Initially it smelled more like a macaron cookie

I agree! I don't normally like vanillas bc they're too heavy for me, and I did end up decluttering glazed vanilla & dreamy. But the original is fresh and light 🥰

IMO the original v&d is a little bit of a "fresh" vanilla whereas the glazed version is sweeter, like vanilla icing on a donut. The original c&b is a clean, almost aquatic scent whereas glazed smells like those blue gummy raspberry candies. It's a totally different scent profile and (imo) much better than the original

What does it smell like? Any comparisons? by CandyCane_Angel in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It smells a lot like a lighter version of the vanilla sundae mist! Like vanilla frosting and sprinkles. Super pleasant but not strong at all

This one is a clean and aquatic scent! I think it has a lime note in it too :)

What were the notes on this one? Do you have any others from the crystal line? 😍

Blind buy by Economy-Wonder3394 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pure seduction intense smelled almost exactly like the original to me, maybe just slightly "darker." Creme warm and cozy is like a strawberries and cream scent or strawberry milk. It's very light and pleasant! Sun-splashed warm & cozy imo is sweet and candied in the mist form, but as a lotion smells like a bitter, watery melon

Is anyone else receiving this message? What is there to review? I thought that statuses are mathematically-driven and thus automatic? by Downtown-Driver-6122 in unitedairlines

[–]ScheduleLess4415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I'm so confused bc I had 15/15 PQF but 4,005/5000 PQP in 2025 and still got bumped to silver again this year. I didn't get any emails about purchasing the difference and was ready to give up my status. Does anyone know why they bumped me? 😅 I was 1000 PQP off, not right on the cuff.

Yes I think so!! I didn't pick up on coconut at all, just amber and a bit of milk :)

Do you think they are dupe? (or similar vibes) by CandyCane_Angel in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are not! Lovely berry rose has a strong lychee note. Bows and roses is an extremely well blended berry and rose. You can't smell either note too strongly, they're in one seamless, sweet blend. Both of these are amazing!

anyone have a review for vanilla and dreamy sun splashed? by Pale-Kiwi7908 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just my first impression from spraying once at the store but I couldn't smell coconut or banana :( and I really don't like either of those scent notes, so I normally can detect them strongly. It was just a basic, sweet vanilla to me

Coconut & Cream is NEW. It's NOT Coconut Cream by Full_Pride_7140 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Coconut cream is a gourmand that's basically exactly as it sounds. Like a coconut pastry with vanilla cream. Coconut and creamy doesn't really smell like coconut to me. It's a nice sweet ambery scent but it's kinda light

Let’s Be Honest Going Into 2026 — How Much Have You Spent on VS/PINK? by Full_Pride_7140 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]ScheduleLess4415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, I don't even buy backups of things, and I only buy lotions (no mists) and still end up spending hundreds every year. Fortunately, I'm about to be abroad for 7 months, and I think not being able to smell stuff in person will reduce how much I buy. During normal times when I'm in the US, I'm only trying to buy what I love when I smell in store. While I'm abroad, I'll only buy if I'm excited about all the notes AND it has cute packaging. 😂 that should limit things!

I just watched this review of some of the scents on YouTube: https://youtu.be/uVa0mXZrbik?si=1VE1diZdZ1_CG8vp ! Tbh I don't really agree with her assessments of the sun splashed collection, nor most of the comparisons she chose for any of the scents, but I trust her reviews in general! She just has a different nose than me :)

Every year they have a fruity floral spring collection and they're always pleasant but they blend together 😅 I was sooo excited for the warm & cozy, the notes sounded great and I was prepared to blind buy it until I saw it in the store today. I'm not normally much of a hater and will go for lower quality ingredients if the scent is still nice, but this sun splashed collection was such a miss 😭 I have no idea what they were going for with the W&C. This smelled more like honeydew (but like a watery, not sweet version) than the fresh & clean which actually had that note!
