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

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.
