Family of Sweet Temptation products
Product description
Sweet Temptation is sweet paradise. An island fantasy. Pampering. Tempting. Sexy. Just what you needed.
From the Victoria’s Secret Garden Collection, Sweet Temptation is a fruity-floral fusion with notes of apricot, grapefruit, and lily of the valley.
Refreshing Body Mist – refresh with fragrance from a Secret Garden, infused with moisturizing Aloe Vera and calming Chamomile. Mist over body after shower or bath for delicately scented skin.
What girly girl doesn’t like Victoria’s Secret beauty stuff? They’re pink, pretty, and they often smell nice. Not to mention they’re affordable. I’m always delighted when a friend or a relative comes home from the US and they bring me lotions and fragrances from Victoria’s Secret. Last year my cousin-in-law in Canada sent me the Sweet Temptation Refreshing Body Mist. This particular scent has actually been discontinued and cannot be purchased on the Victoria’s Secret website, however it is still available on Amazon and Ebay, as well as discount outlets and some brick-and-mortar stores.
My bottle of Victoria’s Secret Sweet Temptation
The bottle is big—it’s 250 ml or 8.4 fl oz. Even if I spray it many times each use, I never can seem to finish a bottle of their body mist. It’s a bit bulky to bring along while travelling, but I do think it looks pretty, and I like how it’s simple and girly with its flower design, but does not look cheap.
It is a body mist and is meant to only lightly scent the skin, though I’ve found most of the Victoria’s Secret body mists I’ve tried to be pretty strong, and Sweet Temptation is no exception. Two or three sprays in the air are enough for me; otherwise this fruity floral fragrance starts to smell cloying. It has decent lasting power too, and stays on my skin for a couple of hours.
The most prominent note I detect on the opening of this fragrance is the grapefruit, which is a scent I like. The grapefruit smells mild, fresh, and delicate. Then the scent moves on to include florals, namely lily of the valley, and at this point it begins to smell a bit heavy for me. This concoction also turns a lot sweeter and fruitier as more minutes pass, and actually gets too sweet for my taste, and at times it sort of reminds me of jelly candy. This of course is only my personal preference. I guess I simply just like my fruity-floral fragrances to be on the light, not too sweet side. My husband, on the other hand, actually likes this and thinks it smells pleasant.
I wouldn’t be surprised to smell this fragrance on a teenage girl, but of course anyone can wear this scent. If you are a fruity-floral fragrance lover on the lookout for an inexpensive scent (the 8.4 fl oz bottle of Victoria’s Secret Refreshing Body Mist costs $9 each, and even cheaper during store specials), this would be a good choice. I would totally recommend Sweet Temptation to anyone looking for a sweet, simple, girly, fruity-floral scent. Sweet Temptation also comes in eau de toilettes, body lotions, hand creams, and body washes, so you can purchase and layer these products if you end up falling in love with the scent. On the other hand, if you do not like fragrances that are very fruity, sweet, or if you dislike fruity-floral fragrances in general, I suggest you do not try this fragrance.

Haha Jomol 😛 😛 It looks out of this world? Looking at the article just now, I realize the 2nd picture got doubled. Hey, many things you review I have no access to, like the Oriflame stuff. The grape one sounds yummy. 😀 😀 😀
i sniffed sniffed VS stuff in some imported store in pune , trust me they smelt horriible , so am assuming that they were fake … today only boyfrand was asking me what i want from canada , hehheheh.. thankoo ida for the idea !! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
Hey Naina, did they look fake? Over here I see tons of fake Victoria’s Secret and Bath and Body Works sprays. I think there are a number of outlets in Canada. 😉 Boyfriend should be able to find lots of stuff for you. 😀
what happened rati, where is Ida going?? ?:) ?:)
jomol paypal closing in India no after 28.. so she wrote “rati my last post” I got sad. :weep: :weep: :weep: :weep:
:hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hughright: :hughright: :hughright: :hughright: rati and ida :*
Now I’m feeling sad. 😥 😥 And how unfair is it that paypal is closing in India? If I were a freelance writer in India with clients in the US that would make things so difficult.
It’s actually not closing that way. It is something else. First it closed the transfer of funds from our bank account/ credit cards to paypal account. It also closed receiving payments in Paypal. Now it would be opening the receiving of payments in Paypal but closing down ‘sending’ of payments to anyone. Now any balance in paypal will have to be transfered to our bank account, which means we would not be having any balance in our Paypal account.
A freelance writer in India should be able to receive payment in Paypal and then transfer it to his/ her bank account. But it CANNOT use his/ her paypal balance to pay for anything online.
Oh I see, so can still receive payments going into the account, just can’t make payments coming out of the account. At least you still have that. 🙂
naina , ida *tigghhhtt hugss**
ida I think you company would find out some way to do transactions. I hope we do so. 🙂
Rati, me hope so. :)) :))
I am also sad with the paypal closing…….. :((
