I'm not sure why I'm such a fragrance schizoid and keep lusting after and purchasing so many fragrances. These other fragrances are nice and all, and I think I like them, but then when I do reach for my often neglected (neglected because it's the only constant in my perfume collection; the only fragrance I always have a bottle of, the only fragrance that is reliably going to be used up and reliably going to be re-purchased after the end of a bottle) bottle of Very Sexy, I am always surprised at how much I absolutely love it. Why don't I wear this every day? Smells sexy, heady, captivating, sensual and just delicious. Lasts forever. I never smell this on anyone else, either. This is also the only perfume I can recall being complimented on by men where I actually agreed with the compliment (usually they like... perfumes that I do not care for. Like orangey-nastiness).The only negative is the container... The bottle itself I like (slender, translucent deep red) but it has this stupid silvery top-heavy asymmetrical cap. I hate that cap. Notes: Clementine and Cactus Flowers, Vanilla Orchid, Blackberry, White Amber and Pimento

EDIT: Something happened here. I went to put this on the other day and the scent slightly nasueated me the entire time I had it on. After I finish the bottle I'm on (my fourth?) I actually don't have any plans to re-purchase. This is kind of sad.

I was torn on this one. I hated for so long because everyone else loved it. Now that I'm around it EVERY DAY, its growing on me. Guys seem to really like it. Most of them do like the softer earthier scents. I keep reaching for this one most days!

I'm surprised how much I like this. I'm a big fan of spicy scents and when it comes to fragrances Victoria's Secret is not my first choice to go and look. This is a spicy vanilla fragrance and there seems to be a slight fruit element in it. This would,to me, be more for evenings and winter days. My only complaint about this, as with all VS fragrances actually, is the strength of it. All you need is one spritz and you're set. Sadly I can't wear this on my wrists since the staying power is vicious and will not fade. I have to spray it behind my knees so I won't get a headache later in the day. I would NOT recommend wearing this around anyone who has sensitivity to scents or in close quarter spaces. The asking price,to me, is nuts since often a single 1 0z. bottle is the same price as a 1 oz. gift set of the same fragrance. Why VS does this all the time I don't know. But I guess I can't really complain. If you keep your eyes peeled for a sale,such as the half-yearly going on this week, you can get a nice deal on those bottles and sets.

Very pretty scent...on someone else other than me. I tested it a few weeks before getting a mini. Testing it was fine. I got home with my fragrance mini & spritzed once and it lasted well thru the night until I got up the next day. The problem is that it after the first 5 minutes, it becomes majorily floral fruity (not fruity floral) on me and just gave me a headache. I returned it. I gave it 2 lippies for the lasting power.

Very Sexy is a strong, spicy perfume. It is heavy, so I only wear it during the colder months or an evening out if appropriate. VS may be offensive to others, especially in offices or small gathering situations. I really enjoy the packacking, it came in a fishnet bag and when you take the lid off it becomes the base for it to sit in, so it is quite attractive on a vanity. I would reccomend VS for someone who likes oriental or strong musks and just a generally heavy scent.

I RIS, persomally I don't care for it. This is one of thoes scents where if you put to much on, everyone know's it. It smells kind of musk-like, oriental, a bit spicy. I love the Very Sexy for men, but not this one for women. This to me smells like cologne, kind of like the men's Very Sexy, but I can't picture it as a woman's fragrance.

Very Sexy for Her (red bottle) by Vict Secret is *very* nice, if you like perfumes such as Boucheron Trouble, Hypnotic Poison, Hugo Deep Red -- that kind of thing. *Very* nice scent! I just got a spray/lotion set Sat -- can't imagine why I passed this one up for so long. It's not too deep, not too strong -- more wearable than those others I mentioned above, but in the same general category.

I went into a VS to buy something, and walk by the table with all the fragrances on it, and I thought something there smelled really good, and I just had to find out what it was, but there was so many different ones on the table, after smell about 10 different ones, I finally found what i was smelling, WOW, it smelled so good, i bought a bottle of it, and I love it, I used to use all the more expensive perfumes, but now I am sticking with this one!!

I really like this fragrance for night, but can only handle it in small amounts so I prefer the body spray version of this. THe name is so fitting for this deep fragrance. It meshes well with my skin, unlike a lot of other heavy fragrances. I like this and Divine by Victoria's Secret. Men tend to like both those fragrances on me. :)

This must have pheromones in it! Whenever I wear it my boyfriend goes crazy--and vice-versa when he wears Very Sexy for him. I like like scent because its not too anything...too floral or too oriental. The cool thing is you can find gift sets especially around the holidays (after x-mas is a good time) to buy on sale, instead of paying full price for a bottle.

When I first sprayed this on, it was a spicy kind of scent. Within minutes, it dried down to a nice powdery (maybe slightly fruity) scent that was really lovely. Didn't have the greatest staying power but not bad. On a friend of mine, it has a nice fruity scent, but not on me. All that said, I would not buy this one again though.

One of the girls at work started wearing this and everytime she walked by me I loved it. So I bought some for me and have not worn any other perfume since. I love this stuff!! I have the after shower spritz, and the regular perfume. Somebody gave the me shower gel, but I have been saving that for somebody special so Im not sure abou it yet! LOL

I have a new boyfriend and he said he liked "spicy" scents, whatever that meant, so I bought the little bottle, and we both LOVE it!!! He has a hard time letting go of me especially when I am wearing this! It makes me feel so very sexy when I am wearing it!

I love this perfume. I've been using it since it came out a couple years ago. It's strong, so I don't have to use very much and it lasts a very long time. The scent will last all day, and I always get compliments about it. My boyfriend also likes it.

Wow, this stuff isn't that bad at all! I tried the body mist, and I thought it was pretty strong, so I definitely wouldn't go for the actual perfume. But the scent is absolutely intoxicating. It starts off a bit fruity, but within five minutes, it turns into a soft, totally feminine powdery scent. I would definitely buy the mist, but I know my boyfriend hates powdery scents, so I won't be purchasing. My dad also smelled it on my wrist and made a coughing gesture because he thought it was too heavy and strong (and it was just the body mist)! The body mist comes in a fairly large bottle for $22.00. A bit pricey for a mist, but that's just my opinion. I'm not too fond of the bottle, as it is a dark, deep red, and I like softer colors. I'd give it a four if my dad and boyfriend liked it, but if two men don't like it, there will be guys out there who may be bothered by it as well. I, personally really like it!

Received this as a gift, but they knew I wanted it. Its stronger scent that is a bit musky. I liked it a lot. The packaging is cool and even comes in a net, I don't know why, but it is cool.

This scent sort of reminds me of Hugo Boss Deep Red.

Has a lasting smell especially when layered with the body cream.
