Victoria's Secret, founded in 1977 by Roy Raymond, was conceived as a retail haven where men could comfortably shop for lingerie and gifts for their partners without feeling self-conscious. The original vision of the store was to create an inviting environment that made lingerie shopping a pleasant experience for men. In 1982, The Limited, Inc. acquired Victoria's Secret, marking a pivotal shift in the company's trajectory.
Under The Limited's ownership, Victoria's Secret maintained its original, personalized image while rapidly expanding its presence across the United States throughout the 1980s. This expansion saw the brand move into malls nationwide, reflecting its growing popularity and commercial success. During this period, the company broadened its product offerings beyond lingerie to include shoes, evening wear, and a wide range of fragrances. Additionally, Victoria's Secret issued a mail catalog eight times a year, further cementing its status as a prominent player in the retail market.
By the early 1990s, Victoria's Secret had emerged as the largest American lingerie retailer, surpassing one billion dollars in annual revenue. The brand became renowned not only for its expansive range of products but also for its high-profile fashion shows. The annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, featuring top fashion models known as the Victoria's Secret Angels, became a major cultural event, highlighting the brand's commitment to glamorous and high-fashion lingerie. The company's catalogs also became iconic, showcasing its latest collections and further solidifying its place in popular culture.
Victoria's Secret's success and influence in the lingerie and retail industry have continued to evolve, driven by its innovative marketing strategies and iconic product lines.

Very Sexy For Her 2 is my favorite. It stirred feelings of desire in most men and women always asked what I was wearing. Wear this and a close touch will turn into something more. Its fragrance is intoxicating in a most pleasurable way. I'm wearing it now. Happy Valentines day.
ReplyDeleteHi i just inform victoria secret about this blog and how disappointed we are they said to call or either go on their website and ask to do a voice of the customer and tell them what fragrance we want to see come back
DeleteI don't know if anyone is still reading these comments but if they are..... I just contacted Victoria secrets chat and had them send a request form to bring back Original pink. If enough people do this they will bring it back. So please, if you like this perfume help me out.
DeletePeaches, I really want to do this!!!!!! Haven't worn anything besides Pink before it discontinued. Where is their chat located?
DeleteI wore Her Majestys Rose for years. I would literally buy the soap, body wash, lotion, and the body/oil spray. I always smelled like beautiful real roses and everyone told my how good I smelled. My mother eve like doing my dirty laundry because it smelled so good. I went to college in 1994 and bought it in bulk. When I eventually ran out.. I went to get more and found out they stopped making it. To this day it's one of the things I'm most dissappointed about. I have never found a scent as wonderful or as real as that was. They made another rose perfume not long ago.. supposed to be close to it.. it stunk.. didn't even smell like roses. Reminded me of old lady toilet water.. if they were to ever bring the original scent back I wld buy them up as fast as they hit the shelves. I would so love to have this scent back. It's light and not over powering.
ReplyDeleteMy sentiments EXACTLY.... I've boycotted V.S. since they took Her Majesty's Rose and Violet Rose off the market. About 18 years now.
DeleteThey now have rose back -and it smells just like i remember her majestys smelling like -that is all i wore! i just got it today and love it. it is on sale for 6$ it is not perfume but a light oil and also a lotion and body wash. they have perfume but it is a different scent of rose.this is rose in the body collection so excited!!
DeleteIf you love her majestys rose try crabtree & evelyn, evelyn rose.
DeleteBring back endless love
DeleteI love love love original pink perfume,please bring it back!
DeletePlease bring back the original Pink perfume.
DeleteBring back the original Victoria. The very first one, please.
DeleteI agree with the above. Her Majesty's Rose was the only line that I loved from VS. That is the only scent I ever bought, the rest are too overwhelming for me. This was just the perfect amount of rose and no other smell. I was highly disappointed that they discontinued it.
ReplyDeleteI miss the original Victoria. ..the one in the blue box. How can I find out which notes were in that?
ReplyDeleteI just discovered the body lotion/ spray called rush at victorias secret yesterday. To me it smells just like the original victoria perfume!!
DeleteDoesn't smell like Victoria...sorry :(
DeleteDoes not smell like the original Victoria. Sorry:(
DeleteI absolutely adored the unique VS original. Why did they ever discontinue it? I've been on a quest ever since to find a similiar scent.Have not found it yet.Wish the would bring it back.
DeleteI started wearing the original when it first came out,1988,till the day they discontinued it. I actually went into shock. After numerous calls to corporate,a representative gave me the total ingredients.
DeleteOooh please please please share. I have been looking for victoria the original for many years. I was too young to realize they discontinued scents when I started wearing that one.
DeleteI don't see sun flower
DeleteI agree about the original, now vintage where I always had the fragrance candle burning. I have all the original bottles that I can still faintly smell which bring back so many, many memories! Even if you brought that back for just a day, I would buy it all, including the layering products!
DeleteI miss the original Victoria fragrance as well. Would get a new year's supply every Christmas. WHY would they discontinue such a popular fragrance ? The ones they have out now are incredibly icky sweet. Has anyone found anything close to the original Victoria fragrance? Please advise.
ReplyDeleteWere you ever able to find someone with the original Victoria for sale? I want it too!!!!!!
DeleteI used a friends lotion the other day from Bath and Body Works "Thousand Wishes" and loved it. The fragrance haunted me all day as I tried to remember where I recognized it...and then it hit me...it smells like VS original Victoria! My all time favorite! I have ordered my own lotion, spray, and shower gel to see if that was actually it. Maybe it was the combination of the lotion and the hand soap at work...I don't know buy I'm going to figure it out!
DeleteSign me up.....I want it I want it I want it!!
DeleteVictoria's Night..the closest scent..then they discontinued it..OMG!!
DeleteWhy can't they bring back VS very sexy 2 for her. It was amazing and I can't find anything even close :(.
ReplyDeleteI think they should bring out the popular fragrances that woman adore on a yearly basid. Encounter was my favorite never had so many cmpliments on a fragrance
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Heavenly Stardust!
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Heavenly Stardust! It is my all time favorite! Thank you!
ReplyDeletePlease bring bck the Wild berry Bouquet scent!!!! You will have a customer for life!!!
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with the fragrance incredible daring. Its unique, and smells amazing. Now that's its discontinued, I can only find a handful online that sellers are charging $120- $190 for! That's insane. I really hope they bring it back, I'll buy out the entire stock.
ReplyDeleteVictoria's secret!!!!! PLEASE BRING BACK SEXY LITTLE THINGS!!!! Why was it discontinued? So sad I can't find it anywhere...
ReplyDeleteHas the original Pink lotion been discontinued? I can't find it in stores and the store associates do not seem to know why.
ReplyDeleteI had the exact same experience (Pink) only scent I like out there in retail~
DeleteI called Victoria Secrets and they showed me how to purchase~
i have been having the same problem finding the original pink i did the live chat and she said they discontinued it i havent been able to find it for about 4-5 years now and when you ask the associates in the store about it they have no idea what you are talking about i did find it on ebay but they want double or triple the price so frustrating
DeleteYou have to call or go on their page and do a live chat and ask for the voice of the customer and tell them what you are looking for
DeleteWhere can I find beauty rush strawberry fizz
ReplyDeleteI love the original Pink but can only find it used on Ebay for over $100.00. I wish they would bring it back.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya i did the same thing but im not paying that price i want it back too
DeleteDoes anyone know if they would ever being back the original vs?
ReplyDeleteI want romantic wish!
DeleteWhyyyyyyyyyyy! I have been wearing Vanilla Lace since 1995, it is my signature smell! It was part of my identity! Please bring it back!
ReplyDeleteJust went to stock up myself. First the lady said they dont carry it anymore and then when I found it, it doesn't smell the same!!! It was also my signature scent for at least 16 years. I will grieve this, probably forever. I feel your pain.
DeleteWhyyyyyyyyyyy! I have been wearing Vanilla Lace since 1995, it is my signature smell! It was part of my identity! Please bring it back!
ReplyDeleteAmen! Tbey lost me as a customer! I can buy my bras and panties elsewhere but my favorite scent?
DeleteThis is also my favorite they brought it back during Christmas time of 2017 and i bought a couple of bottles
DeletePlease bring back dream angels devine. I never see it during the semi annual sales and I really loved that fragrance. I haven't found any fragrance similar to it as of yet. Please, Please, Please, bring it back.
ReplyDeleteI saw Divine yesterday in my local VS at the semi-annual sale.
DeleteMy favorite too
DeleteDon't understand WHY dream Angels fragrances would even be discontinued
agreed!! I found some online at Amazon *a huge markup in price* was so excited when it arrived! my kids were even excited - my daughter said "that's your smell! I always knew when you came home, because I could smell your perfume"! and my son happily sprayed it all over himself. I missed the 2016 re - release. without my perfume being available, I definitely don't shop there as much as I would when my scent is available. REALLY hope they do another re-release, because I'd definitely stock up!
DeleteI was SO disappointed when the original scent "Victoria" in the blue box was discontinued. Does anyone have an old stash of it somewhere hidden that they would be willing to part with?
ReplyDeleteI have refused to buy anything from VS since they discontinued Exotic Bouquet. They obviously do not care about disappointing their loyal customer base, since so many women are begging for them to bring back their signature fragrances. Victoria Secret Corp is all fluff, no substance. I am happy to take my business elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteI 100%agree with that!!!exotic bouquet by far was the best fragrance ever..does anyone remember how much better the original pear glacé in the round glass bottle smelled?its too bad really..they converted to much cheaper product then the original.
DeleteTwo words - Exotic Bouquet...Really VS?
ReplyDeletePlease back the original scent Victoria by Victoria's Secret in the Blue Box.
ReplyDeletePlease bring back the original Victoria by Victoria's Secret for your older customers 😉
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in high school back in the early 90's my dad bought me a VS perfume and make up set. The perfume was in a gold atomizer and I saved the empty for so long but it was lost somewhere. I have no idea what it was called but it was my favorite. Anybody know what I'm talking about? I know it's a long shot.
ReplyDeleteI have the gold atomizer also with the empty vial "Victoria" in it! My darling husband gave this and a bottle of "Rapture" to me very long ago. The Rapture, which I did not care for at the time, but now love!, still smells the same! Beautiful!!! BTW, it seems that there was more than the one vial of Victoria that came with the atomizer.
DeleteExotic bouquet...please bring this fragrance back..at whatever price..and if the company really wants to win big bring it back in its original round glass bottle.
ReplyDeleteThis is ALL PROOF that merchants don't care about their loyal customers any more.
ReplyDeleteI always had to WAIT to for the next truck to get Her Majesty's Rose items as well as Violet Rose. Any item that sells like that should not be taken off the market. The women in the stores always said these items fly off the shelf as soon as it comes in. I remember waiting in line while they were looking for it in the shipment. Puzzling.
I saw that the Body by Victoria was on a clearance table today at a store, so i bought some, only to get home and notice that it smells nothing like my older bottle of Body by Victoria. Can you bring back the original scent? This newer one just isn't as good!
ReplyDeleteI don't know who runs all theses companies but they must be really dumb. EVERYTHING I like from Deodorant,soap, Mascara,shampoo it all gets discontinued and I just went in V.S. to buy my 6 month supply of ENDLESS LOVE BODY SPRAY to find out they discontinued it. I was and am beyond upset. I started crying in the store. I am VERY ALLERGIC to ALL Perfumes & Body Spray. I found endless love when I was 14 I am now 32 and use about 14 bottles a year. It's the ONLY perfume I can wear. PLEASE I BEG YOU BRING IT BACK. I CAN'T WEAR ANYTHING ELSE!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!
ReplyDeleteI agree. Endless Love was my favorite and the only VS body mist I liked. I had been using it since the year 2000. When I went to buy more and found out it was discontinued I felt like crying. I have so many memories linked to that scent :( I keep hoping they will bring it back. The quality of their product is not the same. The products go bad faster. Sad.. I wish they would go back to the old formulas and quality. I have boycotted VS since they discontinued Endless Love. I found out by an employee from Bath and Body that VS and Bath and Body Works belong to the same company.
DeleteI boycotted them too when they discontinued ENDLESS LOVE. My mom my aunt cousins and my mother in law ALL have stopped shopping there because they discontinued that scent. I even went as far as emailing VS AND SENT A LETTER did they care NOPE! I have worn that scent since I was 19 yrs old! I got sooooooo many compliments. Its just terrible how they just don't care...
DeleteDoes anyone know of a fragrance that smelled like the Angels HALO? I loved that one of the 3 Angels collection. I wish they would bring it back or make one that smells like it. If anyone knows of something that smells like it please let me know. Thank you in advance for all the help
ReplyDeleteRight? I feel the exact same way, Halo was my scent! To this day it's the only perfume I've ever been obsessed with and I'm so sad they don't make it anymore!
DeleteWhat were the 3 scents? I wore Heavenly, tried Halo, but can't remember the name of the third in this collection. I wish they would bring Heavenly Angel Mist back.
DeleteMy favourites were Body and Halo .
DeleteEverywhere I went people would ask what perfume I was wearing.
Please bring them back .
Thxs
DeletePLEASE,PLEASE, PLEASE bring back 2009 Very Sexy Now Beauty of Brazil Mist!!! It is the BEST Very Sexy Now Mist EVER!! I have been calling, emailing and asking in VS stores since 2010! It was Summer in a bottle. The perfume doesn't smell the same but the mist will sell out if you bring it back. 2008-2010 were really good but the past few years I have may purchased one bottle if any. PLEASE bring it back again!!!
ReplyDeleteI love using different fragrances..
ReplyDeleteWill try this too :)
Please bring back Very Sexy 2 for her. That is favorite
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Very Sexy 2 for her. That is favorite
ReplyDeleteBRING BACK ENDLESS LOVE!!! HUGE MISTAKE TO DISCONTINUE
ReplyDeleteBRING BACK ENDLESS LOVE!!! HUGE MISTAKE TO DISCONTINUE
ReplyDeleteCan someone tell me how to find crimson kisses and apple from Victoria and pear ?
ReplyDeleteI boycott VS until tbey bring back Vanilla Lace body mist. I used to buy that stuff by the bag full! They must not need my money! C'ya! -G.E. HSV, AL
ReplyDeleteI am boycotting Victoria Secret untill the bring back Vanila Lace body mist. I used to buy it by the sakfull and give as gifts and for my own use. Oh well... I guess theyvdon't need my business any longer.
ReplyDeleteThey did bring it back in 2017
DeleteI boycott VS until tbey bring back Vanilla Lace body mist. I used to buy that stuff by the bag full! They must not need my money! C'ya! -G.E. HSV, AL
ReplyDeleteVanilla lace!!! Wasn't that out the same time vanilla pome was out!!?? I have been searching for that for YEARS... even for a knock off version. PLEASE PLEASE bring that collection back!!!!
DeleteI have been using Body by Victoria ever since it first came out. My sister liked the way it smelled and bought a bottle, however, it turns out she didn't like the way it smelled on her. So, she let me try it out. I put it on and fell in love. To this day, I get about 2-3 compliments A DAY when I wear it. Needless to say, I was heartbroken when I went to VS yesterday to stock up and found out it was discontinued. I almost cried. I had to do the painful smell testing with the sales associate to find a substitute. I went online and have stocked up through Amazon. I cannot believe VS is doing this with the original scents. If it's not broken don't fix it!!!!! They are putting out cheap smelling stuff that a 12 year old would wear. I am extremely disappointed in VS and will most likely stop shopping there if it does not come back.
ReplyDeleteI just discovered it missing too. I will have to make time to go to Dillards and see what they have. I already know VS doesn't have anything I like. You're right, it all smells cheap and something for teens or too floral and over powering like a much older woman.
DeleteI'm still pretty heart broken about this... I only have 2 bottles left in my drawer and then I'll have to find a new perfume! I've been using body by Victoria since 2001 :(
DeletePlease bring back Body by victoria, is my favorite, I use it for years, I miss it ☹
ReplyDeleteHas the original Pink perfume been discontinued? I just went to make a purchase and your staff says it has been discontinued. I have been wearing this scent for 20 years and was told previously it was your top seller. Please say this is a false statement!?!
ReplyDeleteDid you ever get a reply? My wife is out and she asked for it for Christmas. I can't find it. Thank you
DeletePlease bring back Rapture!!!!! I went to the store to purchase yesterday & found out it is discontinued. Purchased today on Ebay for almost triple what I used to pay for in the store. I agree will all above! If it is not broke don't try to fix it. I also like Body & found it is also discontinued. Looks like VS is catering to a different generation! So sad we have money too to spend!
ReplyDeleteI love Rapture, wore it for years, my signature fragrance! I can't believe they discontinued it. I've somewhat been boycotting VS ever since. I can't find any fragrance I like as well as Rapture! Please bring it back! Why do they do that? So many people like the original fragrances from VS. Not everyone is a 16 year old who wants to smell like fruit! BRING RAPTURE BACK!!!!
DeleteYes, very sad about Rapture. It's the only fragrance I've worn since it came out. I have no idea idea what to wear now. I hate all the fruity stuff.
DeleteI too loved Rapture. I wore it all the time. Wish they would bring it back. I have worn it for years!
DeleteI agree!! I have been wearing it for over 20 years! It NEEDS to come back !!
DeleteI've used Rapture since its Inception and I'm heartbroken that they discontinued it. I cannot find another fragrance that I like anywhere and I wish they would bring it back, PLEASE VS BRING BACK RAPTURE!
DeleteStill looking for somerhing that smells like Rapture. I decided to stop buying VS perfumes. I'm tired of going in to find nothing that compares. Anyone find anything that's similar in smell?
DeleteAm I the only one that remembers the "secrets collection"? They were numbers. I believe it was 33, 55, 66, 77, & 88... I can't quite remember if those are all the right numbers. But...I do know that I LOVED Secret 88. It is my all time favorite perfume & I can now only find it on EBay for well over $100. I wish they would bring those back!
ReplyDeleteRapture is the ONLY scent I have worn since 1992 and I also just discovered when going in to make a replenishment purchase, that it was being discontinued. I am devastated, and sincerely at a loss for what to do. I mean it when I say it has been the ONLY scent that I have used for more than twenty. years. Some may say it is time for a change, but I stand with the previous poster who stated, "IF IT'S NOT BROKE, DON"T FIX IT". Truly disappointed with VS.

ReplyDeleteI so agree Elizabeth!!!! I've worn it ever since I discovered it! I'm so disappointed that they don't sell it anymore and haven't found anything to enjoy since.... beyond sad! This scent gave me a confidence that I didn't even know about until I couldn't wear it anymore.... 😥
DeleteWhy does Victoria's secret do that?? I too have worn Rapture since it came out. I can't find anything I like nearly as much as Rapture, it was my signature scent! Bring it back!!! I used to be a very good customer but not anymore.��
DeleteI am so sad...I just discovered that Rapture is discontinued and the prices on Ebay are outrageous! Has been one and only scent since the 90's. I do not even know where to start to find a new scent :(
DeleteI agree, I have used Rapture since it came out and the prices online are ridiculous. I mentioned to a Customer Service Rep at VS they should bring it back and they said they would pass it on..... Hmmm doesn't seem like it. At least let your long time customers know you were discontinuing so we could purchase a few bottles before they all appear online for $100 or more.... I am not very impressed with the selection they offer now. Rapture was good price for a fragrance that obviously customers liked.
DeleteBLOSSOMING ROMANCE & ENDLESS LOVE need to be brought back. I'll never understand this.... u don't take things from your happy costumers..So sad!!
ReplyDeletePlease bring back original
ReplyDeleteVictoria by Victoria perfume.
Why don't you bring back Victoria's Secret's original perfumes back for a limited time you would make a lot of customers very very happy people would buy it up quick
ReplyDeleteI love your pear glace lotion an shower gel!!I've worn it for years and I always get compliments. I can't believe that it's discontinued!!! It was the only thing that I could wear. I wish you would bring it back!!!! It seems like vs is catering to the younger generation an thats it...
ReplyDeletePlease bring back the Body by Victoria!!!! I lobe that scent was so disappointed as a new credit card holder to see it gone! Couldn't find anything I liked that even came close.
ReplyDeleteSeems like VS doesn't care what real women want. I have missed the original Victoria hand cream and perfume and now they have discontinued my Rapture. Velvet hand cream scent lasted all day. Even my dentist asked what I was wearing years ago. Got so many compliments when I wore it and I only used the velvet hand cream, the lotion didn't last. Please,VS bring back our favorites.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more! All their new fragrances smell the same and I don't care for them at all! Bring back Rapture.
DeleteWHY would you discontinue Halo?!?!? I love the lotion!! Bring it back just for a short time and I will buy it ALL! Why discontinue?? I understand ROTATING, but why not still make it available online or at least makes some come backs every now and then.
ReplyDeleteThis was the o my scent I would buy most of I'm like why not do flashback sales of original scents every year so we can stock up. Why would u stop selling your best items it makes no since! I love halo with a passion and now it's like what do I wear
DeleteDoes anyone know what the vanilla scented collection was? They were vanilla with other scents like strawberry, apple, etc..
ReplyDeleteThis was the Essences de Voyage Collection https://victoriassecretfragrances.blogspot.com/2016/02/essences-de-voyage.html
DeleteI know so many have already said it, but...Exotic Bouquet! For me, no scent will EVER compare.
ReplyDeleteBring back pear glace!!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love getting the 6 for $30.00 in stores. When you discontinued it from store level it was a pain to have to buy it online.... Buy now I can't even do that?! Come on! I've worn this scent for over a decade.
Thanks VS! <-- Saracasm
Bring back Pear Glace!!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved getting 6 for $30.00 in stores. When you discontinued it from store level, it was a pain to have to buy it online.... But now I can't even do that?!?! I've worn this scent for over a decade!
Thank VS! <-- Sarcasm!
PLEASE BRING BACK THE FRAGRANCE. EVEN IF IT DOES NOT MAKE IT BACK TO STORES.
ReplyDeleteVIOLET ROSE! Does the new Rose Violet smell similar at all? Been boycotting VS since they discontinued Violet Rose. My ALL-TIME FAVORITE SCENT! By reading these comments, it seems they could bring a lot of customers back by just even doing a Retro Release!
ReplyDeleteSame!!!! Love that scent!
DeleteWhy on Earth would Victoria's Secret discontinue Rapture??? My absolute favorite fragrance, my signature! Every where I went I got compliments on how great I smelled. Please bring it back!!!
ReplyDeleteAgree! It's sad and will not shop there any more. Always had complements on my Rapture. My husband is upset too! There are many more stores to choose from to buy my intimates and it was convenient with my Rapture there too. Now.... never shopping there again.
DeleteI'm done with VS. Discontinuing Rapture fragrance finally did it. How could you? Why would you? But then again, clientele is now teenybopper and choices of of fragrances reflect such. You lost loyal customer until you show you care for us, NEVER will I step in your stores again.
ReplyDeleteI cant believe they discontinued Rapture, that is the only reason I went to the store but would end up buying other things also, NOW I will not walk into a store. Rapture had class and mystery, these new smell like teenie bopper sweat. Your targeting the wrong people, you should be looking at us 40 and over group we have the money.
ReplyDeletei totally agree with you
Deletei love rapture.i have been using it for many many years .i am sooooo disappointed that it has been discontinued. do you think it will ever come back ? if so you can send me a e-mail at..... debracampus12@gmail.com. i hope that if you get enough women who love it as much as i do hopfully it will return. it is terrible how the other sites have it for a crazy high amount. thank you
ReplyDeleteI also have been wearing Rapture since the 90's. There is not another fragrance out there that smells like it. Please bring it back. I used to wear it every day.
ReplyDeleteBody by Victoria is my favorite. I used to get so many compliments and id direct them to you. FREE ADVERTISRMENT WHY WOULD YOU DISCO FREE ADVERTISRMENT, WHY??
ReplyDeleteExotic Bouquet was the best EVER!! Does anyone know exactly why they discontinue fragrances? Is it a copyright issue or something? Clearly, it was a huge hit...and it seems like they discontinue all of their most popular fragrances. What gives??
ReplyDeleteI went to VS today with my mom, to pick up my bottle of Rapture for my birthday.....Only to find that they have discontinued it �� I used 2 bottles a year, plus shower gel, body lotion, body spray....And have worn it for 20 years!!! My heart is broken, I feel like I have lost a part of my life/past...I refused to pick a new VS fragrance. I went to Macy's and went with Jimmy Choo....Let's see if it makes the cut...
ReplyDeleteI'm 38 years old and for years have LOVED Rapture! I've never met anyone who smelled this & did not agree. How INSANE & SAD to discontinue this fragrance! I have located it on eBay for an arm & a leg (& yes, I will buy it anyway) -- but I am so very disappointed in VS!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy would they discontinue the original Pink? This is the only perfume I could wear at work. Im very disappointed in VS! I dont really like the musk smell or grapefruit. I want my peonies back!
ReplyDeletePlease bring Rapture back!!!!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree!!!! Rapture was my favorite perfume...
DeletePLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! BRING BACK ENDLESS LOVE!!! I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO PAY FULL PRICE PER BOTTLE IT'S THE ONLY SCENT I CAN WEAR WITHOUT GETTING A HEADACHE. BRING BACK THE CLASSIC TIMELESS SCENT...IT'S THE BEST!!!!!!! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! If the scent gods are listening I want my Endless Love!
ReplyDeleteI am also in the "Rapture wearing for years " group. So upset I can't bring myself to go back into the store. I have been trying to find a similar scent sampling like crazy with no luck as of yet!
ReplyDeleteI agree with all the posts about Rapture being discontinued, very disappointing. I am also part of the group that has ONLY used Rapture for many many years. I have just alittle left and went to VS to buy a new bottle, needless to say I walked out of the store not purchasing anything. One of the sales people suggested another scent they thought might be similar, it was not even close. I have never found any perfume that compares to Rapture. PLEASE BRING RAPTURE BACK!!!!
ReplyDeletePLEASE BRING BACK PINK!! I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DISCONTINUE SCENTS THAT ARE BIG SELLERS!! PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!:-(
ReplyDeleteCan anyone still remember the name of the PEAR scent?
ReplyDeleteI remember it had like a powder (dusty?) pink color for the container. All I can remember is the Pear word. :(
I think you are talking about my FAV..Pear Glace which was discontinued. I'm so disappointed...
DeleteWe still have it here in the Philippines actually :)
DeleteNow that Rapture has been discontinued I have no use for VS.....
ReplyDeleteI totally agree ! Won't step inside a V.S. since my Rapture is gone!
DeleteDon't you think bringing back the original Victoria secret perfume would be fantastic!!! What a promotion! I have not found not one scent that compares since the original.
ReplyDeleteI wish victoria secret would bring back the perfume Rapture...
ReplyDeleteBring back Endless Love!!! It was the only scent I liked from VS. I haven't and won't shop at VS again unless they bring back Endless Love, the original formula. Not the cheap newer version that goes ransid faster
ReplyDeleteVery bummed about no more RAPTURE. No Rapture; no more V.S. for me also
ReplyDeleteMe too!!!
DeleteI was hoping that V.S. would at least bring back the original Pink body mist for the holidays this year .
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was called " the fragrance" I got the most complements every time I wore it. There was a similar one they came out with I think it was the newer Victoria or body by Victoria.. but even that has been disc. The nee Aden s are sickeningly sweet or overwhelmingly floral like my grandmother. 😞
ReplyDeleteWhy oh why would you discontinue Rapture?? Every Christmas and Mother's Day I would get a bottle and would have to buy some in between. I couldn't go anywhere without someone complimenting me on my perfume. Several gentlemen said they'd never smelt such a wonderful perfume and had me write down the name for their wives. My heart is broken!
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Rapture. It is an amazing fragrance..
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Rapture. It is an amazing fragrances
ReplyDeleteRapture perfume oh how I miss you! Please consider bringing it back...
ReplyDeleteWent in to buy Rapture for my wife for Christmas and didn't realize until I got there that it was discontinued. Salesperson tries to sell me bombshell as a replacement lol after smelling every perfume in the store I realized all of them smelled about the same as each other really soft with fruit nothing like Rapture needless to say we left the store this year with money in the pocket and a mad scramble to find a different gift instead of the go-to that I knew she would love because she does every year.thank you Victoria secrets it was bad enough when you took the make up kits out now I have no reason to shop there
ReplyDeleteContact them ask to do voice of the customer and tell them what you need
DeleteWhy would you take Rapture the only present guaranteed to make my wife happy and replace it with all these soft fruity perfumes that suck
ReplyDeleteI think Victoria's Secret needs to bring back some of the old perfumes that they had put out first some of the newer ones are horrible smelling please bring back Dream Angel Halo it was one of the most beautiful perfumes I had ever smelt
ReplyDeletePLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring back VERY SEXY FOR HER 2. Best scent ever and then vanished.
ReplyDeleteI did'nt see Pink on the list.And will you ever bring back Victoria,eau de colonge?It was distributed in USA by Gryphon Develpoememt.L.P. New York N.Y. 10021.I still have the glass and gold bottle with the navy cap.It's been 30 years !!!!
ReplyDeleteI really fell in love with Dream Angels Halo! I wish they would at least have a flashback sale of all of their disonctinued items so we would have a chance to buy them and stock up. I could never understand why companies stop selling their best items it just puzzles me so then we have to settle for what they throw out there not knowing they could make money off the originals and jus bring out something new every now and then or keep expanding not take things away that we love.
ReplyDeleteYears ago you discontinued the original Victoria. When that happened, I started wearing Body by Victoria, which I liked even more. . Now that’s discontinued! Please bring back Body by Victoria!
ReplyDeleteI have been wearing Rapture for as long as it's been out.I constantly received complements on it by men and women,I really wish you would bring it back.My husband has been buying it for me since before we got married it is his favorite so if you could please bring it it back
ReplyDeleteThank you,
I love the Rapture I have been wearing it since it came out. I really wish they would bring it back I have received lots of complements on it by men and women.My husband has been buying it for me since before we got married do you think you could bring it back along with all the other ones that everyone else have been talking about.
ReplyDeleteThank you,
Mrs.Bovee
Please bring Endless Love back. I so adored that scent will not shop VS until it is returned!
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Endless Love, I so adored that scent. Will not shop at VS until they bring it back!!
ReplyDeleteDo anybody remember the scent that snell like now laters please
ReplyDeleteI use to be an advid Victoria Secrets Shopper. Infact the only fragrance that you would catch me wearing other than Bodacious by Graham(which is now also a discontinued fragrance)was Victoria's line. Yet I must say that when they decided to discontinue Rapture..I had to stop shopping there altogether. I
ReplyDeletefelt that they had totally let their customers down. Why would you producing or selling a fragrance or any utem for that matter that the public liked. It makes no sense to me. And if you have so many people that have complained or requested it to be put back into pruduction..you would think that it it the public/customer that matters.
Pink 2001 was my absolute favorite scent VS has ever released. I believe it was also DC. :(
ReplyDeleteCan anyone recommend something even remotely close to it...?
Agreed on the Rapture Lotion which my motheri-in-law loved..I dont know why VS only wants to only target teeny boppers. I dont go into VS any longer to shop because the newer fragrances are sweet and cheap
ReplyDeleteI've been wearing Body by Victoria since it came out (2001/2002). Luckily I still had some after I found out it had been discontinued and have been using it sparingly. Please bring it back VS!! If anyone has found a similiar fragrance, I would love to know about it.
ReplyDeleteI wish that VS would do a special release of Rapture even if the price was more I would buy it I really loved that scent and haven't found anything that comes close or last as long as it did
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with Exotic Embrace in 8th grade, then strawberries and champagne. I stock piled every lotion and shower gel, then started stock piling rapture- since they have completely discontinued ALL shower gels and everything I loved I am sad to say that I now have to find something else. I’ve literally gone online (eBay) and bought every bottle of Strawberries and Champagne shower gel/lotion I can find some bottles I paid over $100 for. My only option is now bath and body and I detest everything I smelled in there. Someone point me in a direction of good stuff. VS has lost me forever!
ReplyDeleteCan anyone help me find a specific perfume? My mom bought me a small black purse from vs and a dark blue bottle of perfume when I was in hs way back in the early 2000's it was def my fav perfume but unfortunately I lost it at a hotel and haven't been able to find it again not to mention the purse as that was stolen. If anyone can help me find either that would be amazing. I can't remember the name but if I saw it I would know it. I think I got it in 2002 ir something
ReplyDeleteI think this is Victoria. Original. Discontinued.
DeleteBreathless was one of my favs which I still cannot get over vs discontinuing it! I absolutely loved Breathless! Then to make it even worse, Rapture is now discontinued. I can't understand why vs continuously discontinues their BEST LOVED FRAGRANCES and THEY DO NOT CARE!
ReplyDeleteI refuse to shop at vs. Could you imagine the fortune vs could make by bringing back the beloved discontinued fragrances all mentioned here and at same time vs could simply have all the loyal customers they lost back just by bringing back what we loved
Along with Romantic Bouquet and Victoria's Bouquet (1988) there was a third one: Spring Bouquet. It was the perfect scent for my skin. Light, floral, hint of fruity. Does anyone remember this? To this day I wish I had bought more when they were discontinuing it.
ReplyDeleteVanilla Apricot was my favorite. Will they ever bring it back?
ReplyDeleteYes here I am glad to know I'm not alone in the grief over RAPTURE being Discontinued..are you kidding me? This fragrance holds a place interwoven into my life since it came out I've not worn anything else. I bought my last bottle in 2016 and had sparingly used it barely misting a minute drop daily until today when I squirted the last drop..i loved this scent so much I made 1.7 oz last almost 3 years!!!! BRING RAPTURE BACK PLEASE!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNight was my favorite will it be coming back. It does not say discontinued but i can not find it anywhere
ReplyDeleteIt has been brought back but is now named "Very Sexy Night" an associate told me it was always a part of the Very Sexy line but now carries the name. The bottle is still black but the design of the bottle is also different.
DeleteBtw Night was my favorite scent from VS.
DeleteThe original Pink Body Mist is my favorite, the last time I bought it there was a super sale of older items, will Pink Body Mist be coming back out for that?
ReplyDeleteWill endless love be coming back?
ReplyDeleteWill you have another classic sale? I really want the endless love to come back
ReplyDeleteCan you please bring back victoria secret very sexy for her 2, that smell was amazing!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy was Body by Victoria discontinued? I loved that scent and always got compliments. It was all I wore and haven't found anything else even close. Bath and Body works is smart enough to bring back favorites from the past twice a year. Why aren't you?
ReplyDeleteI always got compliments on that too and was sad to see it discontinued.
DeleteIf I recall correctly, B&BW and VS are owned by the same company. If they're not going to bring scents back to VS< at least they should repackage / rename them and throw them into B&BW for a while.
Bring back Pear Glaze!!!!. Thats my all time favorite
ReplyDeleteVanilla pome please please bring that back!!! It is sooooo so beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteVanilla lace.. vanilla pome... that line of fragrances was amazing
ReplyDeleteSunflower
ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago VS had a holiday shimmer fragrance mist collection. I think there were 4 different fragrances but the one I loved was called Starry Night, it was a clear fragrance with a light shimmer to it in a clear bottle. They had it that one year and not again. I've looked for something that smells even somewhat similar ever since but have never found anything close enough. Wish they would bring it back so I could stock up.
ReplyDeleteI have been checking every year to see if they have brought Starry Night back. Sadly, as you are aware, they have not. And, like you, I've never been able to find anything close to it.
DeleteThe search continues...
There isn't a man alive, old or young that doesn't instantly love the ORIGINAL VS Victoria perfume from the '90's. I just want to bury myself in the scent and stay there. The reformulated version of Victoria that you released a few years ago was horrid & cheap, like a $2.50 Tommy Bahama body spray at TJMaxx. 1) Why did you discontinue the original version of Victoria? 2) Why did you think reformulating it into nose singeing, flower scented, cat urine was smart? Who's the deranged moron behind these (2) idiotic decisions? Please bring the original '90's Victoria perfume back.
ReplyDeleteSincerely, everyone w/$$ to spend on perfume that doesn't want to smell like a CVS low-shelf skanky tramp.
I am in agreement with everyone on here that wants the original vs in the blue bottle back. If you brought it back you would make so much money.
ReplyDeletePlease bring back Pear Glacier products. It was a unique product. Nothing today is compatible. The aroma was one of a kind. Please bring it back.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping with all the changes VS is undergoing to make it more appealing to the masses, they will consider bringing back the old favourites. I was a teenager in VS's heydey, and now that I'm in my 40s, I can afford to buy all those luxurious perfumes on my own that I had to beg relatives to buy me at Christmas! VS is sitting on a gold mine and don't know it.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite scents were Her Majesty's Rose, Peach Hyacinth, Romantic Bouquet and Tranquil Breezes.
I've actually purchased a few of the discountinued items on eBay-sadly, some of the perfumes have gone bad-they have a strange undertone and don't last long.
I agree, VS should either bring back the old school versions once a year or perhaps have a "Classics" section, where the OG scents are showcased.
I miss Moonlight Magic...late 90's early 20's
DeleteBring back First Love!!!! Please it smelled so nice
