The story behind the bottle.
Scandalous by Victoria's Secret was launched in 2014 and crafted by perfumer Gil Clavien. This Floral Fruity fragrance opens with the bright burst of raspberry, leading into a lush heart of peony that adds an unexpected depth. The base note of praline brings a touch of sweetness that lingers on the skin, creating an overall effect that is both provocative and alluring. Designed to evoke a sense of sensuality and confidence, Scandalous captures the essence of a bold moment, where every scent promises excitement.
For best effect, apply Scandalous during cooler hours when its fruity and floral notes can linger longer. A light spritz on pulse points will allow the praline base to unfold gradually throughout the day. This fragrance is particularly suited for evening wear when you want a scent that whispers rather than shouts.
