Bombshell Oud

by Clément Gavarry

Victoria's Secret Bombshell Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Clément Gavarry. Bombshell Oud opens with Violet Leaf, Saffron, and Mandarin, and settles into a heart of Peony and Suede. Victoria's Secret's Bombshell Oud carries a Statement verdict, a leather-led wear.

This is Victoria's Secret trying something genuinely daring, and it's paid off for many. It's not a safe blind buy, with its divisive opening and strong oud-leather character, but it offers surprising depth and luxury for the price.

The strong oud and leather accords, coupled with frequent mentions of its 'sexy' and 'dark' character, make it ideal for date nights and formal events. While some find it suitable for the office due to its soft projection, many experience it as quite potent and not an everyday casual scent.

About

Bombshell Oud opens with an assertive, almost metallic violet leaf and saffron that quickly mellows into a plush heart of suede and delicate peony. The base deepens significantly with a soft, yet prominent oud, backed by a clean musk. It's a surprisingly sophisticated blend of dark and floral notes, hinting at luxury without being heavy.
