Which Should You Buy?
Victoria's Secret Love is a polarizing creature. Some say it's a soft, clean dream, a 'boyfriend tee' in liquid form. Others find it a headache-inducing chemical mess. It's the kind of scent that has its devoted fans and its fervent detractors, so you'll have to sniff it for yourself.
A truly gorgeous, photo-realistic peach and clean linen scent that captures sunshine and ease. It's an undisputed masterpiece of a 'your skin but better' fragrance, but the abysmal performance makes its eye-watering price tag tough to justify for many.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its soft and clean character, with moderate longevity and sillage, makes it perfect for office and casual wear as many reviewers suggest. While it's generally considered inoffensive, some find it too casual for formal events and not invigorating enough for sport.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its extremely light projection and lack of longevity make it ideal for office settings where strong scents are a no-go, or for casual wear when you want something inoffensive. However, for dates or formal events, it simply won't have the presence needed, and while clean, it's a bit too 'laundry-esque' for formal wear.
