I have the full size perfume, the mini travel perfume, and even the lotion in this scent. It's really sweet smelling and I get complimented on it a lot. The perfume bottle is beautiful, by the way.

I just bought this at the semi-annual sale yesterday (yup eventhough their website says it ended a while ago, the sale is still on in stores, which was a pleasant surprise) I got the full 8.4 fl. Ounces bottle and it was in the fragrance mist so mine didn't come with the atomizer. However the perfume of this that was left out as a tester had a broken atomizer so I couldn't even smell the perfume. Anyways I purchased this for a steal of $6.25. It has a great smell and I have not yet worn it on a full day out alone (meaning I sprayed other perfumes on) but it smells fruity, but not overly sweet and like those cheaper drugstore body mists. Obviously compared to the higher end brands it has a very simple mix of smells. I love the packaging for the price and it was one if the reasons why I bought it. I'm excited to wear it and see it's lasting power so that's the reason why I gave it a 4/5 rating. But I'll come back to update it. I'm very happy with my purchase and am very excited to go on the FIRST DAY of the semi annual sale next January rather than waiting a month later to go :P

K so I've worn it out quite a bit and love the smell, but it is not as strong as a perfume but I like it.

UPDATE

I went to the mall looking for a body spray and saw this one for 75% off ($3.50). The scent is cheap but then again, I find all VS scents to be on a cheaper side. However, I only wanted a spray for the days when I don't go out so the quality didn't really matter to me.

Overall, it's alright.It's a very sweet perfume and I wouldn't recommend using it in a professional setting. But for casual days, it works.
I did try the perfume as well and it doesn't last very long. So I'm not surprised it's being discontinued at all.

I own this in the body spray. I only bought it because it was 75% off and I liked the bottle. Other than that, I find it unremarkable. To my (unsophisticated) nose, it smells like the usual generic VS floral scent with a dash of fruity mixed in. It's a mediocre scent, but the bottle looks pretty on my dresser and is much preferred to the watered down Bath & Body Works sprays, so I guess it's a keeper - for the price.

I picked up a TON of this - the perfume, body mist and lotion at the semi-annual sale. THANKFULLY I bought a few of each (great sale) because this scent is so soft, clean and fresh. Lasts and I've gotten compliments already!!

Victoria's Secret needs to stop putting the puff atomizer on edp's. Almost all of them don't work after 1 or 2 sprays. Love the fragrance, and hate that it's been discontinued. But the bottle was a waste. Just transferred it to a different bottle because of that puff situation.

the only thing gorgeous about this perfume is the model and cute bottle. smells like chemical . headache induced. this stuff smells like a man. Great for masculine Mrs. Manly. fluffed up with too much alcohol. Smell too desperate for attention. sharp fragrance that is not well blended in. Scatter scents that do not match. Disturbing fragrance. VS is smart to discontinue this thing. It's a dying breed. RIP

One my favorite Victoria's Secret perfumes! The reason why I will never buy this though is because the lasting power is HORRIBLE and if I'm going to pay $45 plus dollars for a perfume then it better have very good lasting power.

EDIT: This is being discontinued unfornately :( Since this and the simply gorgeous are half off, I'm going to finally get myself a bottle of this!! :))

I just love this scent so much! I can't believe that they would discontinue this and keep some of their other crappy scents (glares at rapture & very sexy for her...hmph!)

Considering the list of notes which make up this scent, I thought I would love it... but instead I find it very drugstore generic smelling and whimpy. I don't get any "strawberry" in this at all. Once applied I'm lucky if I can still smell it 30 minutes later. Nothing special and will not repurchase.

I'm not sure if I got a bad bottle or what, I couldn't smell this at all. It was that faint. I have the mini EDP. I returned it at the VS store and the girl even tried it & couldn't really smell it either. I exchanged for the Incredible spray.

The notes in gorgeous are: mandarin orange, wild strawberry, jasmine, freesia, musk and sandalwood. This is a fruity smell but not a teeny bopper fruity. It's adult enough without being cloying and too old school smelling. I wear this to work everyday. Surprisingly is last pretty long for a Vicky Secret perfume.

I have a hard time finding perfumes that smell nice on me. Maybe its me but I smell something I love and then when I try it on and wear it I find it stinks on me! This was gorgeous, feminine and not overwhelming. Just soft and pretty. I dont feel that it lasts the whole day however but I dont mind. Im just happy to find something so light and pretty. My one complaint is the bottle, I dont like that puffer. (Not sure what the name for it is) but I dont mind, I will def buy again!

This one should have been called "pretty" but since another perfume already has that name they went with gorgeous. So PRETTY! I can actually smell the strawberry AND the jasmine....it smells great...fresh and floral. Very feminine. The scillage is impressive. I don't like when I buy a scent and get nothing from it because no one.can smell it. This one is noticeable. I see heads turning looking in ny direction when I spritz this on. It's a very noticeable more mature VS fragrance. I only bought the small $10 bottle because I wasn't quite sure about it....the perfume lasts thr same as thr body mist....and a lot of complaints.about the perfume atimizer. I think I'm going to buy the lotion too. This is a winner. I like it because its different and also because its more mature. I don't feel silly wearing this in my thirties. A win for VS

I can definetly smell the strawberry and sandalwood in this scent. I like it, I just wish it had more depth, there seems to be something missing. Overall, it is a sweet and enjoyable scent, just seems a bit juvenile

I just got this today. I got the mini version (it was on sale for $10) but with my secret rewards card I actually paid $0.82. I love the smell of it. I will definitely buy this again in the near future.

I LOVE this perfume. It's the perfect fruity/floral scent without being too overpowering. Like mentioned in a previous review you can smell the strawberry but it doesn't come off cheap and I don't think it's the dominant note at all. I would say it comes down to body chemistry. Head on down to VS and try it yourself if you need more convincing! I also love that it comes with an atomizer!

This is meant to smell like strawberry, jasmine, and sandalwood. I definitely can smell the strawberry, but it isn't pleasant. To me, it should have a very fruity scent, but because it's mixed with jasmine and sandalwood, the fruitiness is subdued and it ends up smelling kind of odd and slightly like a bitter strawberry.

I would have liked this scent more if it was more fruity and sweet like some of those cheaper scents in the Secret Garden line (which is now VS Fantasies).
