The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024 by Victoria's Secret and crafted by perfumer Laurent Le Guernec, Daring is an Oriental Woody fragrance that balances bright citrus with earthy moss and powdery woods. The composition opens with a fresh spicy note that cuts through the sweetness of the citrus accord, creating an unexpected tension. As it settles into its base, the scent reveals layers of amber and woody accords, adding warmth and depth.
Apply Daring in two precise sprays — the bright citrus top notes will make an immediate impact, but it's the earthy moss and woody base that linger on skin for hours. Best suited for daytime wear when the fresh spicy opening complements a lighter atmosphere.
