  3. I loved Rapture and always got many comments about the great scent. I still have some left, but know it's coming time for me to find a replacement scent. Does Victoria Secret have anything remotely similar to Rapture? Maybe since it's been out of production for a bit, they are contemplating a return soon?

  5. I have worn RAPTURE since 1993. I have NEVER had an alternative perfume. I am devastated by the decision Victoria's Secret has made to discontinue this scent.I cannot understand the logic behind doing so when every VS employee says it was one of their longest running and had faithful Rapture lovers. Those of us that have worn this frangrance over the years are devoted to this scent. We do not care to wear FRUITY, CANDY smells as we are mature women that have aged right along side with RAPTURE. VS will lose business of those of us that bought only from them. This will not close their doors but, it will increase profit for others that target all age groups. Please bring RAPTURE back!!!

    1. OMG I feel the same way!! Been searching EVERYWHERE, nothing comes close ~ I will buy a case of it if I ever see it!! The stores in NJ keep telling me to check during Anniversary sale but it's been awhile now!! I'm so upset, I feel if they bring it back they are going to change something!!

    2. I am right there with you. How are we supposed to ever be happy again. My children grew up calling it the "momma smell" they are all adults now and when they come to visit they look for the momma smell to put on their favorite shirt before they leave. Now what do I do?

  6. Ditto to Melissa Kerry. I bought this every time I needed more and then discovered to my dismay that it's not available. This was my go to scent.

  7. With how popular Rapture perfume was, I was surprised that VS decided to discontinue it. Not sure what the decision was behind discontinuing it but it would be most appreciated it VS brought Rapture perfume back. I am completely loss without it. Cannot find anything that even closely compares to Rapture perfume. It was a very popular perfume. Why would you discontinue something that is popular and making you money? Please bring it back.

  8. Please bring back RAPTURE. It is the best perfume Victoria Secret has ever had. (my opinion) Nothing I have worn compares to Rapture. I always get a compliment when I have it on. I bought Tease to try and it doesn't compare. Not one compliment on the scent and the scent fades quick unlike Rapture. I don't understand why they would discontinue this perfume since so many bought it and they really couldn't keep it in stock at the store I shopped. PLEASSSSEEEE bring it back.

  11. I have to agree. I used Rapture from the beginning and would always buy something else in the store when I would get my perfume. Now I am without a perfume. Do not like the others scents and do not go in VS anymore. Please bring my fragrance back.

  12. does anyone know how the “new” Rapture version by Victoria Secret compares?

  13. I loved rapture! My little 16 year old self thought I was the cats meow! The only thing that is remotely similar is the OG formulation of Bijan By Bijan. ( It has a white cap, not a clear one) You have to hunt it down since it’s not available on the mainstream scene.
