This perfume smells really good. It has a nice scent that I can't quite put my finger on. It smells sweet, fruity, & floral all at the same time. The lasting power is decent, but the price is a little steep for how much perfume actually comes in the bottle. I tested this out in the store, but I didn't end up buying this one. I do plan on purchasing soon though.

This is the only perfume I have ever finished... And repurchased. Something about the sweetness isn't tacky and you'll never be sick of it.

This is a review for VS Incredible body mist.

I'm really picky with fragrances. I'm always reluctant to spend money on scents because they end up smelling strange with my body chemistry. The only scent that works really well for me is Flower by Kenzo...warm, woodsy, a bit powdery. I love scents like coconut, sandalwood, and amber, but it's hard to find a good combo that works for me!

I went in to VS to use a coupon and decided to try the mini body mists because they are only $10 right now! I was debating between Incredible and Divine. I ended up going with Incredible because it settled on my skin so nicely! It's light but lasts for a few hours. I'm sure the perfume has better staying power, but the mist works for me (especially for $10). I'll repurchase if this continues to work for me!

Victoria's Secret lists the notes of Incredible as "Juicy white peach, pear, water lily,Magnolia, honeysuckle, iris flower,Natural vanilla, sultry Australian sandalwood, liquid musk, coconut milk." It seems impossible based on the notes, but this reminds me of Jean Paul Gaultier Classique (new). It's a floral vanilla with tobacco-like hints of dark coconut. I am so glad I was in an unreasonably long line last time I was at VS, because it tempted me to smell the fragrances, which I hadn't tried in years. Incredible and Noir Tease really grabbed my attention, with their irresistible scents and prices that are much better than I'm used to paying for fragrance! Earlier the same day I'd been at Nordstrom, having gone in planning to buy Elie Saab. For $90 plus tax, I just didn't think Elie Saab was doing for me what it ought to do. Then I sniffed around at Barney's and found nothing worth blowing $200+ on...so I headed to the rest of my shopping. It's almost funny - I feel like I won the lottery. I found a fun, great-smelling new perfume for $45!! Yes, the bottle is a little garish. So what? This is enjoyable and easy to wear. Strangely, without even knowing the brand or the price points, my husband really, really likes Incredible and Noir Tease. Apparently VS perfumers know their market well!

"Bright magnolia, sparkling pear and sultry sandalwood" - yeah! To my nose, it smells clean, powdery, and slightly sweet. The scent of the first spritz is divine, as is the drydown. I own this fragrance in the scented body mist, so I can’t attest to its lasting power as opposed to the actual eau de parfum. However, the scent lasts for hours on me so I don’t see a need to spend more when the mist suits me just fine. I have the matching lotion, which smells just as wonderful but leaves my skin feeling a little dry.

Amazing smell.. a few deep breaths after you spray it and you feel calmer and like you can take on anything.. reading the bottle makes you think you are super women.. and WHY NOT!!! Awesome fragrance.. feel like a million "incredible" bucks when you put it on!!

Absolutely adore this fragrance. It is my favorite and I wear it most often. I am a fan of VS fragrances and switch between this and Noir and Noir Tease to give you an idea of what type of fragrances I like. Incredible is just so sexy but in a subtle way. My boyfriend goes crazy every time I wear this! It lasts all day when I layer it with the matching lotion. On the VS website it describes this fragrance as "A sexy ego boost in every spritz. A floral, fruity blend of magnolia, sparkling pear & sultry sandalwood."

This fragrance drives me NUTS- in a good way. If a bag of garbage smelled like this perfume, I would fall in love with it. It truly lives up to its name, and to me, smells like the epitome of all things sexy and feminine. When I wear it, it gives me mad confidence, and I feel like I could just jet set wherever I need to go.
Though I love their panties (oh, those sales!) and loungewear (i.e. hoodies, sweats and tees), Victoria's Secret never really hits home for me with a majority of their fragrances; the only other one I can say I truly like is Give Me Love. So, in terms of Vicky's fragrances, Incredible is a game changer for me.
I have this in the body spray. I tried the actual perfume in the store, and both smell the same to me. I just bought the $12 bottle of the spray to give it a shot before committing to the actual parfum. Let me say that the body spray ACTUALLY LASTS FOR HOURS, especially on clothes. If I can still smell a fragrance on me after two hours, that's good, but almost all day? That's a winner!
To my nose, Incredible isn't 100% inexplicable, but it's not easily defined, either. I guess the reviewers below me who said "soft vanilla floral" and "amber musk" are probably right (I'm still new at defining fragrance notes), but with my body chemistry, it dries down to an enigmatic, fresh, powdery scent. It's not immature, and not too mature, it's sexy, it's soft, and gets me compliments.
The only problem I have with Incredible is the packaging. While the parfum's bottle design isn't hideous, it's a bit cheesy. The words on the bottle- Daring, Sexy, Beautiful, Confident, blah blah- are kind of unnecessary, as whoever designed the bottle could have come up with something a bit more sexy and subtle, like the perfume itself. And though Incredible makes me feel like some of those things, those words certainly don't appeal to me as graphics on the bottle. But that's just me.
I'm 99.9% sure Incredible is my signature scent. If a fragrance makes me feel different in addition to smelling awesome, I know it's meant to be. :)

I am not usually a fan of VS frangrances - too young, girly and "Candy-Scented". But I LOVE this fragrance! Gorgeous for Fall! A soft vanilla floral - warm and pretty! Love that the scent is soft from the moment you spray it - no offensive stinging of the nostrils or sneezing that some other frangrances can cause upon initially spraying them. Very sophisticated compared to other VS fragrances and wears well for me. Have received many compliments when I wear this. (A man asked me what I was wearing and actually said "It smells incredible!" - HA!) Only thing I am not a fan of is the bottle - not a big fru fru pink fan. But, whatever. The scent inside is INCREDIBLE :-) Hope they don't discontinue this one!! LOVE IT!

tried this at VS store after a disappointment with the Gorgeous fragrance (couldn't smell it at all!). I really like this fragrance. The body mist has good lasting power. My only issue is that it is pricey. I wish they sold this in the ornament size.

I wasn't a fan of this scent. When first sprayed, it has a floral-like smell, but after it dries it turns to an amber musk. I didn't find it unique, kind of a generic scent.

I'm in love with this scent!!! Ah it's like perfection in a bottle! I'm not good at describing scents but I would say that this can work for daytime or evening and is fruity-floral and a little musky yet sweet. Haha that sounds really complicated but I think it's best to just go in the store and smell it. I randomly picked it up from all of the bottles and I completely fell in love with it!!

I love this fragrance in the body mist form layered on top of the Incredible body lotion(lasts longer this way). It's something about this that is very sexy and beautful. It's not perfumey, so the dry down is not bothersome (you could actually wear this to bed and not be bothered by it). I would definitely repurchase this when I run out.

ok, let me start by telling you what fragrances i typically wear, which will give you an idea as to what i like. Viva la juicy, Britney Spears Fantasy, Noir Tease, and now...Incredible.

When i smelt this in the store, i HAD to have it. i covered myself in the body mist, but bought the EDP. I was addicted to the smell alllll day. Today, i wore the EDP and it has lasted 7 hours so far, and still going strong. I love the initial top notes, and to me it smells best when it first goes on. 7 hours later, and its starting to smell more musky (a nice musk though). I put my jacket on this morning and could still smell the body mist that i sprayed in the store, and that would have been 14 hours ago...so i might have to agree with the other post when they said that the Mist is the way to go, because it definitely lasts a long time, and you get way more for a cheaper price.

the packaging is very cute, but the lid is a little hard to get back on and i ended up spraying it all over my hand (could just be me being a klutz, thats all!)

Overall, i love it :) definitely worth checking out.

I love this scent the perfume smells wonderful and really lasts. The body mist and lotion not so much. They still smell good but are way to faint to smell the fragrance. But I would buy the perfume

I just got this perfume in the mail.

Now honestly, I wouldn't call this perfume a "fruity floral", because although it is a bit fruity, I feel it has a more musk like scent to it. The base is coconut, and I can surely smell it. Coconut lovers will love this. ;)


After smelling it on my wrist over and over again, I now pick up almost the exact same scent of Britney Spears "In Control"--except with some light coconut thrown in...really really compare those two (I have a bottle of in control)...again not exactly the same, but PRETTY close!


Now it does stand out a bit from their others, although not too much (why I gave it 4 stars). Think a small bit of Love Rocks with a tiny bit of Bombshell, and a small mix of Heavenly Stardust--all in one--and that is what it smells like to me. It does smell very good, but it has a bit spicey kick to it. After the drydown, I'd say it smells more like a gourmand scent more then fruity floral.

The lasting power is good (I have the EDP and the body mist)--and honestly, the mist lasts just as long...so save your money, and buy the mist--because it lasts a good 6 hours , and you get more of it anyways. :) I think this perfume will be very good for summer since it has a coconut base to it...but it's not overwelming either. A nice sexy scent with a bit of fruit. Enjoy.

Here are the notes shown with this perfume:

Top notes:
-Lotus, Peach, Pear

Middle Notes:
-Iris, Honeysuckle, Caribian Mangolia

Base Notes:
-Musk, Sandlewood, Vanilla, Coconut
