This fragrance was made for you—authentic, true, and uniquely yours. Bare harmonizes with your one-of-a-kind body chemistry, unlocking a signature scent that feels utterly perfect to you. Crafted with our proprietary musk blend, this exclusive Eau de Parfum unfolds with a bright, effervescent burst of Madagascan mandarin at the top. It then softens into a delicate, dewy heart, where Egyptian violet petals take center stage, before settling into a warm, enveloping base of Australian sandalwood that lingers gently. Without a doubt, it’s our most personal fragrance to date.
一.Pros
1.Bare is a great skin scent that evokes feelings of comfort and warmth.
2.It's a nice, gentle and cozy scent with a clean, shampooy vibe.
3.It's a safe blind buy considering it's Victoria's Secret's first new perfume launch in five years, and it's a 'your skin but better' scent.
4.The sandalwood is smooth and creamy, while the violet and mandarin quietly dance around the woody aura this fragrance has.
5.It has a long-lasting effect; not overpowering but definitely lasting.
6.It has received compliments from others, making it an attractive fragrance for many.
7.It smells sexy and slightly sweeter than Glossier You.
8.It's a unisex scent with a natural smell of musk and sweetness.
二.Cons
1.The scent is linear, fruity, musky amp clean. It might be too minimal to some people's liking as though it is just a component or subset of other VS fragrances.
2.It can be very dependent on body chemistry and personal preferences.
3.It did not live up to certain people's expectations such as its association with Santal Complet or its resemblance to Glossier You with a sexier, slightly sweeter personality.
4.It is misleading because the correct notes were listed at a bare minimum to follow the concept.
5.It has an aggressively synthetic base that is completely unwearable for some people.
6.The synthetic VS DNA smell is too strong.
7.The sandalwood here is much too dominating, acrid, and sour.
8.It smells like pine tree or orange sugar bomb to certain people who do not agree with its chemistry.
