What does Bombshell (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top notes of passion fruit, pineapple, strawberry and minneola tangelo open juicy and bright. In the heart, lily of the valley, vanilla orchid, jasmine and peony add a soft floral layer while red berries keep the sweetness going. Musk, blond woods and oakmoss in the base ground the fruity florals lightly.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily and leisure wear lead the occasions, though it also works at the office. Voters describe it as feminine and modern. Its profile is close to Victoria's Secret Bombshell Fantasy Fragrance and Esprit Rise & Shine.
