In My Self-Care Era: Trying the NEW VS Body Care 

I am a scent snob, it’s my job, and I am very picky. Enter the new Victoria’s Secret Body Care line, with scents designed to fit every mood. I got a chance to try two scents in this collection, and spoiler alert: I can’t decide which I like better. (They’re that good.)

Ultra Comfort

For my first head-to-toe Body Care experience, I used the very on-trend Vanilla Orchid & Sandalwood Feel Comfort. Vanilla has been the scent the past few years, and I’m no stranger to a good gourmand. This Vanilla is a little more mature, spa-like, and the Sandalwood rounds it out with a beautiful warmth. The vibes here are all about feeling total comfort. The back of the Cream Body Wash tells me this is my “Moment for Comfort”, and I oblige.  

From the moment I lathered up, I knew this experience was going to be a treat. This is the perfect scent for your everything shower. It’s cozy, comforting, and leaves your skin feeling clean and soft. Post-shower I sealed in all that Vanilla Orchid & Sandalwood goodness with the matching Hydrating Body Lotion, infused with Magnesium, Shea Butter, and Coconut Oil to really bring that comfort home. Since I have dry skin, I went over the lotion with the Body Oil to keep the hydration going. The final touch was a spritz of the Hair & Body Mist to ensure these comforting smells stayed with me all day long.  

Brighter Days Ahead

I committed a major faux-pas (at least in my book) and went to bed post-workout without showering, so the next morning I was looking to feel super clean and get a little pep back in my step. It was the perfect time for White Peach & Mango Feel Bright. This light, fruity, and fun scent has delicious nectar-like notes that feel so fresh and invigorating. Bright is right, this smell will make you a morning person.  

Since on this morning I was feeling particularly grimy, I started with the Cream Body Wash and then double-cleansed with the Whipped Body Scrub. The Feel Bright line is infused with Vitamin C, and this scrub left my skin feeling super smooth and soft. Since I was just starting my day, I hopped out of the shower feeling energized and applied the Hydrating Body Lotion and a quick spray of Hair & Body Mist to finish boosting my morning mood. This mist is amazing, by the way. Not only are both scents I tried completely delicious, but the spray itself has a beautifully designed atomizer to make the most perfect spritz of scent. As a scent snob, that’s the kind of ingenuity I geek out over.  

A Total Scent-sorial Experience 

After a week of showers with both collections, I was mixing and matching to my heart’s content. These scents truly make your Body Care experience feel luxurious, and they will be living in my shower until their last drop…when I start another batch. And maybe I’ll even try another one of the five new scents—if these two are this good, I know I’m in for a treat.
