The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018, Velvet Petals Shimmer by Victoria's Secret is an enchanting floral fragrance that balances sweet and nutty accords with fruity freshness. The composition opens with a bright burst of citrus before diving into the heart where almond and soft florals create a warm embrace. This fragrance settles into a base of rich musk and subtle sweetness, making it a versatile scent for any occasion.

How to wear it

Velvet Petals Shimmer has a moderate sillage that builds over time. Apply it to pulse points for a subtle yet long-lasting presence throughout the day.
