The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2012 by Victoria's Secret, Bombshell The Summer Edition is a vibrant Floral Fruity fragrance that captures the essence of a sun-drenched summer day. It opens with the zesty freshness of carambola and pear, complemented by the subtle warmth of rooibos tea. This bright top notes give way to a heart of lily-of-the-valley and jasmine, which add an elegant floral touch. The composition is anchored by smoky amber, grounding the scent with a warm, inviting base.

How to wear it

One to two sprays are enough — this fragrance builds on skin over time. The fruity top notes fade quickly, but the warm amber base carries through the day.
