Dream Angel Eau de Parfum 2019
by Victoria's Secret
A soft, sweet gourmand scent with creamy vanilla, warm amber, and a delicate balance of red berries and white florals. The initial spray carries a bright, fruity opening with hints of pear and tart berries, followed by a smooth, cocooning vanilla and jasmine base that feels both youthful and sophisticated. The overall impression is fluffy and indulgent, like a vanilla-cake accord with a hint of musky, ambery depth, making it feel elegant yet casual. It performs well on clothing and lingers for moderate wear, though on skin it fades rapidly after an hour, transforming into a quiet, intimate scent. Most users find it pleasantly sweet without being cloying or juvenile, and it blends well with various themes and occasions, particularly for spring and summer wear. The fragrance is widely recognized as a cross between Ariana Grande’s Sweet Like Candy and Victoria’s Secret’s own signature aromas, with a gentle, flirty projection that grows more noticeable as it settles on skin or fabric.
Pros
- +Offers a soft, sweet, and gourmand scent that feels elegant and approachable, ideal for everyday wear
- +Blends notes like vanilla, amber, and red berries seamlessly, creating a smooth, cohesive aroma with no harsh or synthetic elements
- +Arrives moderately well and especially performs on fabrics, staying detectable for extended periods and suitable for layering
Cons
- −Longevity on skin is weak, with most users noting it fades significantly after 60 minutes
- −Thoroughly variable performance depending on individual skin chemistry and batch, with some reporting minimal or barely detectable scent
- −Highly reliant on the first spray for visibility, and sillage stays moderate to intimate rather than strong
