As a gen-z high schooler with little knowledge of fragrances — the notes, nuances, and desired longevity, you know, the technical aspects that no teenager wants to get into. I simply loved wearing scents that were light, floral, and fruity, so obviously Victoria's Secret's mists were always at the top of my list! They smelled delicious, the packaging was adorable, the variety of scents were hard to miss, the 'sexy but sophisticated' branding was irresistible, and it was a flex to own a VS product back in the day because the brand didn't sell in India until last year. 

But times have changed, Victoria's Secret has opened stores in India (currently in Delhi and Mumbai) along with their website that is thriving with online shoppers. But what's fascinating is that one thing hasn't changed, which is my love for those fresh, sugary, and sexy-smelling mists, which are almost always on sale. So, here I am, sharing my top ten recommendations, from most favourite to least favourite for those who are new to the VS mist hoarding game (yes, it has become a thing) and need fail-safe recommendations on which one(s) to buy. Read on!

Victoria's Secret Bombshell Mist

She's an icon, she's a legend and she is the moment. The Bombshell variant in Victoria's Secret's fragrance category has always been a total knockout! While the Eau De Parfum is their top selling perfume, the mist comes right after. It's floral, fruity and gives the perfect refreshing hint of scent with a quick spray. While longevity is missing, we can't help but deny that mists are the most diluted perfume formulation so we can't expect much in that area, but if we judge the fragrance, it does the job just right!

Notes: Purple Passion Fruit, Shangri-La Peony and Vanilla Orchid

This light-as-air mist offers a refreshing scent that's mysterious yet intriguing,  if you get what I mean. A dark fusion of glossy berries and weightless warmth, it sits comfortably well on the nose. The gourmand and night-blooming iris give it that dark yet downplayed delicious scent which is balanced phenomenally well by the candy-like sweetness of the raspberry glaze and warm tonka. TBH, I I wasn't expecting such a nuanced body mist to exist but Victoria's Secret has upped the stakes with this one!

Notes: Dark Gourmand, Raspberry Glaze, Night-Blooming Iris, Warm Tonka

Authentic and true, Bare is created by Victoria's Secret with a proprietary blend of musks that mix with your body chemistry to reveal your signature. The Bare mist has mellow undertones — musky, slightly rugged yet refined because of the minimal floral notes which smell really clean and fresh on the skin. This one's the perfect choice for wearing to the office for the corporate girls who enjoy woody-floral scents that run more on the musky side. 

Notes: Australian Sandalwood, Mandarin Madagascar, Egyptian Violet

This one's a slightly recent addition to the VS body mist family but an addition we genuinely appreciate. It is far away from the fruit-florals and actually packs on a great lot of muskiness. Moving to notes — a burst of citrusy bergamot for an elegant freshness. The heart of the fragrance blooms with lush gardenia, for a petally, clean floral effect. Cocooning musk envelops the scent in comforting softness adding a weightless warmth and a golden finish to the colour of the mist as well. This is absolutely smashing for a night out when you want to smell sophisticated yet approachable.

Notes: Sparkling Bergamot, Lush Gardenia and Musk

The scent is a mix of red plum, sweet melon, and freesia which lends it the typical VS fruity-floral scent. How is it different from others? Well, I feel the magic lies in the major note — red plum which gives a deep sensuous nuance to the fragrance, appropriate for formal events. This one has surprising silage — you can smell this from around five to six feet away which is honestly great because that usually never happens with body mists with less perfume essential oil concentrations. The staying time is also above average, you won't have to re-spray for a good three to four hours. I can say this one is in my top three and can see this happening for others too!

Notes: Red Plum, Sweet Melon, and Freesia

Victoria's Secret Love Spell Golden Mist

Victoria's Secret did a little spin on their classic Love Spell body mist and release the Love Spell Golden Mist. While love spell is an irresistible floral-fruity scent with notes of the cherry blossom and fresh peach, the Love Spell Golden Mist has honeyed vanilla along with sparkling nectarine and sweet tamarind for that citrusy sour punch which is exactly what makes this one stand out. This mist is a no-brainer for evenings you want to wrap yourself in a sweet and citrusy fragrance that flaunts great depth.

Notes: Honeyed Vanilla, Sparkling Nectarine and Sweet Tamarind.

It's fruity, it's floral, it's balanced, and it's everything you would want from a feminine fragrance. The sweetness of pink petals, freesia and a little creme anglaise paired with warm amber for some muskiness make this body mist a perfectly balanced, light fragrance. What I love about this one is that it's easy to layer with other mists or more concentrated EDPs or EDTs (eau de toilette) so I can make my own custom fragrance to suit my moods.

Notes: Pink Petals, Freesia flower, Creme Anglaise and warm Amber

Victoria's Secret Coconut Passion Mist

First things first, the note of coconut is definitely dominant in this mist. If you are on the fence about wearing coconut, this won't be something that you should try but if you really love the scent of coconut, this could possibly be 'your thing'. This is a fun, light-hearted, casual wear mist that reminds you of the beach vacation you took ages ago. One thing to note is that it has really a very strong note of vanilla that combines with the coconut for a fairly sugary scent which might bother some folks.

Notes: Vanilla, Coconut, Chamomile, Lily Of The Valley

Victoria's Secret Aqua Kiss Mist

Aqua Kiss was one the first Victoria's secret mists I bought. I'm especially inclined towards this one as an everyday choice  during the summers when I am sure I am going to perspire more than usual. Its composition full of aquatic and floral notes makes this spray absolutely perfect for such days. You can also use it any time you don’t feel like putting on an intense Eau de Toilette or a heavy perfume. All in all, it's is a clean, fresh but slightly sweet aquatic scent that's a great addition to your vanity for humid days.

Notes: Cool Waters, Bright Daisy, Chamomile and Plum Blossom

Rumour has it that Pink was a brand vertical started by VS to attract high school and college girls. While I am not sure about that, what I am certain about is my fascination with the scent of this mist. The notes constitute of two of VS's favoured florals—fresh peonies and violet petals mellowed by sun-kissed woods. I like this one for how subtly floral it is in comparison to the other ones which might feel too flowery-sweet at times. However, you must note that the longevity isn't great, it vanishes off within half an hour (or an hour max) post application which is not very nice. 

Notes: Fresh Peonies and Violet Petals, Sun-kissed Woods
