I'm not a fan of amber scents, except this one. Those were my 2 best scents until I ran into Christina's celeb perfume called "By Night" but i LOVE creamy things! So beautiful and unique vanilla fragrance. Probably not going to get it again. Something about this is very moreish to me, I have never owned it but everytime I smell it in store I end up smelling it again- this is a very warm, rich, sexy vanilla/caramelly and amber scent. (Perfume scar :)). I like this one, I wear it to go to work. perfect for layering, in fact i plan on layering with love me More by Victoria's secret, which is also amber scent. I love the vanilla and creme anglaise notes. The opening has vanilla and black cherries, delicious!!! The other 2 were typical generic, fruity-floral things. I gave this perfume to my teen daughter it smells so good on her. I used to be neutral on amber scents but, this made me really not like them. rebellious, not too mature, but not too juvenile. Love this scent. I think it's great for the winter days .. gave it to my mom who was very happy, I find it perfect for women aged 35 upwards. I tried to like it, but I just couldn't, it smelled too weird. It reminds me a lot of sensual amber by BBW. I probably won't reach for this often but I enjoyed the stroll down memory lane today. I really like the lotion although the EDT not so much, it smells synthetic (which is a curse of many EDT fragrances), Tested this the other day in the new Victoria's secret that's opened in Birmingham and I've gotta say I fell in love with it. When I unsure of my day or mood it gives me life. Its a strange one this,theres just something about it thats very unusual,very sexy and womanly smell,I wasent that impressed with the blind buy after all the raves but its a grower for sure,almost hypnotic and addictive like its from a far flung place,sweet oriental powdery,musky,i can see why men like this cos it screams MYSTERIOUS!! I purchased and did not like it at first but after sometime the smell was good, in fact great, I love it. It was a gift after all. If you like scents as Sensual amber and Twilight woods (Bath & body works line), you will love this one! They were once much more moisturizing and smelled super rich now just so-so. I suppose they changed the formula or my sense of smell has grown beyond this. On my skin it dries down to a caramel cotton candy and I can't believe I've been sleeping on this gem. I don't know if its the amber of the cherry or what but it is waaayyy too strong.as I said I know others who smell like heaven in this and others who smell not so good. I just got this. The body mist brings out the sweeter notes of cherry. It's kind of overpowering no matter how little the amount I apply on my wrists. I was mesmerized by Amber Romance. not too serious, but nothing to laugh at. This is the best of the VS range. except i can't wear it anymore since i wore it in high school and it would just bring up bad memories lol. It's gorgeous, soothing and perfect to spray on your Victoria Secret lingerie and to help you as you drift off to sleep. It strongly reminds me of a cheaper quality Vanilla Soft Musk by Avon, but for me Avon is the superior scent. One of the worst ambers i've ever smelt. I didn't need too much to smell great! Perfume lovers: 793,390 It's also versatile enough to layer under any vanilla or amber based scent. My friend owns this in the body spray version and she let get a few spritz. It's much more powdery than I thought it would be, and it seems both old-fashioned and childlike at the same time. It's such a warm and sweet and powdery scent, it took me right back to my high school days when I spritzed myself liberally with this stuff. Inexpensive, but still really nice. I love to layer this with anything that needs a warm, ambery vanilla base. Sweet, not sickly but feminine and indulgent. Today I've found another favourite of mine!!! So very nice and safe. I don't know why, but now it smells so chemically warm, overpowering sweet and sharp. I have both the body mist and the body lotion but I enjoy the body lotion more. I remember it to be a loud, almost sickeningly sweet scent. It starts off very balsamic and I like that very much. I used to like this but for some reason out grew this one but it is still ok. Great smell but can be overwhelming if you layer it with the lotion, etc. It turns my stomach. Really wish I could get my hands on this again. Fragrance Reviews: 1,288,282 I'll finish in one sentence . It last on clothes +8hrs. This is one of my favorite fragrances by Victoria's Secret. Don't know how to explain exactly, but I have the same sensation everytime I smell Samsara! I have a 1.5 oz. Longevity and sillage is pretty good. Great for all year round! This is a lighter version of it, soft Amber and maybe some cherry/strawberry/choco along with milky milk! I got this in the body butter, and all I can say is "ew." Amber Romance is a warm and alluring blend of black cherry, crme anglaise, vanilla and sandalwood. Most Victoria's Secret scents are gloppy, sugary fruit messes on me, with synthetic screaming musk and woods. Lol. because I don't like the smell I give it all to my friend. I used to layered it with the shower gel and lotion and it lasted a long time. It kinda smells like shampoo, in a nice way of course! I found the EDT for 13 euros, and due to good reviews here I thought I would give it a shot. This fragrance encapsulates "sunset beaches". Please read the Terms of Service and Privacy policy. I loved the original body lotions and creams in this scent they were super glorious why do they have to change the formula???!!!!! I definently smell the amber and some wood tones. I habe smelled it on others and it smelled like heaven. By looking at the notes I would probably have been a bit put off but, this is probably my favourite of all the VS mists/fantasies I've smelled. This along with Vanilla lace and Pear glace were my first VS scents. Idk. So I went straight for the over spraying since body sprays don't really have longevity. It smells delicious on me for whatever reason. This is a great bargain buy. My man hated it. Love it. I will have to smell this one again to see if I'll feel the same way. I decided to get the lotion and EDT for nostalgic reasons. Unfortunately, most are not long-lasting. My friend suggested me this perfume coz I do a lot of online shopping. It smells expensive ad has that my skin but better scent,something i hate about it its kina atry hard and very synthetic,but its cheap so you get more than what you actually pay for and thats always good. This was my favorite among VS line of scents, in which its not too sweet, fruity or citrus. Complete Waste of money. It's simple and linear, and it doesn't apologise for it. Lovely little mix of candied sweet, and amber, and bit of cherry. It is sweet, clean, caramelized. Creeds Love In White: Grain-Fed Magnolia, Sacred Groove: The New Fragrance by The House of Oud, Opinion: We Dont Need to Worry So Much about Fragrance Reviewer Credibility, Vetiver Gris: New Fragrance by Jacques Fath, Historical Coty Fragrances: The Anniversary Edition 2004, Fragrance Review: Tom Ford Vanille Fatale (2017), Umema: The Perfume That'll Never Be Smelled, Goldfield & Banks Goes Deep with Silky Woods, Victoria's Secret Amber Romance Perf (. just perfect in every way. i love this and will buy one when i run out . Spray it on after a warm bath and sit by the fireplace with a cup of hot cocoa ~ perfection! It was affordable, wasn't offensive, and held on pretty well throughout the day. It's going straight back tomorrow. Oh how I could forget my Amber Romance. I don't usually like strongly perfumed soap, but I might have to make an exception if I can find out which brand she was referring to. Its so alluring and soft and seductive all at the same time. Especially since I live in a tropical country. If you really want something similar, Try sensual amber from B&BW instead. Rich, warm, seductive and sweet, this is awesome for the cooler months and date nights with your honey. A few sprays will do you. Really nice scentI think this is more for the 20 and up crowd. This is my signature scent. This scent doesn't have topnotes or a drydown, it's just a straight up cherry, vanilla, and amber. It is warm and soft, just lovely warm vanilla, caramel, light milk and a heart of sandalwood amber with optimal fixation and sillage is very versatile while being marked. It stay very close to the skin and last quite a while. Of all of the fine fragrances that I own and have worn, this one has elicited the most comments. I love amber and sandalwood so much! To me, this smells like almonds and milk mixed with sandalwood and honey. I love you Amber! I think this is a wonderful scent, really delicious. It is very sweet so if you're not into sweet this one likely won't appeal to you. I hope VS will never discontinue this, I am still hoarding it and using occasionally. It lasts long on me. My husband loves it! I got these gifted in a VS Gift Pack consisting of 3 fragrance mists and 3 lotions. I personally think that it's a quite "special" smell..just don't know how to describe it. It leaves me scented until I drift off to sleep. I feel edible wearing it. It's my absolute favorite. The body lotion is very moisturizing and the smell is long lasting. On her, it's a beautiful rich amber and vanilla with a hint of spiciness, so I've always found this scent quietly charming. For $8.00 for a huge bottle I couldn't possibly go through in my lifetime, given the amount of scent I already own, this is a huge bargain. i just love this scent. This could just be my favorite VS body spray ever. I see a slender curvy, library assistant sitting at the info desk wearing slightly cat-eye, black rimmed glasses in a peachy-nude v-neck cashmere sweater with her dark, auburn locks wound up on her head, held in place with old school chopsticks. I hate this scent, it gave me a headache. I own a 3.4 ounce and I love to bathe in this one LOL this is by far my favorite scent by VS! The body mist is very musky and almost too sweet. Great for cooler weather! Perfumes: 73,913 I can notice the cherry note, but only at the beginning; then, it turns into a beautiful, warm, creamy, ambery-vanillic, somehow powdery scent, sweet into a very mature and cozy way. I get the same kind of 'restroom' feeling. It came with 4 other sweet multicolored spritzers in a pink gift box. It's my signature body mist, I've been using this one for years. very warm and carefree. It's a very sweet and fruity fragrance. It's sweet, yet balanced out so that it's a perfect blend of vanilla and fruit. I do 3 spritzes of the EDP alone, meaning I do not use any other scented lotion or body spray etc. Fragrantica Inc, United States. someone gave me this last week and i can not tell you how much i love it ! For me this's a very inoffensive scent. This smells like vanilla with some extra sophistication thrown in. ugh! I hope its always available. Even though I'm not a fan of powdery sweet fragranes, I like this as a bedtime perfume. Will definitely be a mainstay in my arsenal. See, I love this for a very specific reason. Even smelling it brings up good memories. The opening is somewhat sharp with a tangy cherry note the most prominent,it then settles down quickly into this creamy vanilla with hints of sandalwood and black cherries served with lashings of creme Anglaise. I bought about 6-7 of the purse sprays at the SAS at 2 bucks each. She speaks in sweet honeyed whispers. It's strong though, and seems to turn bitter. I'm not a fan of this scent. I was drawn to it as it was very warm, deep and sweet. Unfortunately this is the kind of perfume that most people wear, very predictable and not unique at all. Of course I used them all remorslessly even if they weren't my style. Deep, warm, musky scent. A very soft and comforting warm, amber-y, vanilla. I don't like this one and really regret buying it. As I choose a fragrance for the day according to my mood, this one fits most of the time when I can't decide what mood I am in! It started to smell cheap to me because of the overwhelming fruity top notes. Definitely a luxurious and comforting scent but if too heavy people at the other end of the table will notice so be careful with application. A staple in my collection, for pre-bedtime and layering. I think its my chemsitry. I'd wear it all seasons. Maybe I should try wearing Nina to office too? I like it and I have nothing to complain about. This is one of Victorias Secrets Best Secret Garden Scents! I love Amber fragrances and its nice to have cheapies to choose from on lazy days at home. Delicious and warm. for a body mist its quite strong and lasted 3 hours. It was pure alcohol, that's it. Sexy and warm, cozy and fuzzy, a big golden hug in a bottle. Need to wait a little and there comes warm, sweet scent of vanilla, amber and caramel. It must just be me, as no one else has mentioned this, but this smells exactly like Revlon's Fire and Ice (which I also have and love)!! not last long. I got it on sale so no harm done. Oh, and I didn't found this cloying at all: if you use it with moderation, it will be a really pleasure even in the warmer months! it's like spraying dessert all over your body! Can't smell it on myself, which tells me it is soft. really good for those who want a budget friendly scent to be remembered by. It's safe, comforting, sexy, affordable, and flirty all in one! My Mum adores the scent as well. creamy vanilla amber fragrance mist.but i found it mix with a fruity perfume it is become such a beautiful mist and long last.I love it! it's my favourite and it's just awesome.. love it :). I was in love! I never had so many perfumes in my life beforeif had perfume usually 5 or 7 at a time now i have over 100 perfumes, still this one is just as good as my more expensive ones in my collection. It gives the fragrance a fruity aspect without being sugary sweet. I kindalike this one (must be my increasing awareness that I'm an amber gal) even though I have had a less than wonderful experience with VS perfume before. I love this fragreance~ Very warm and summary like Sensual Amber! This is my favorite perfume of the VS line. And trust me that's one long relationship over many years and many fragrances. Best of VS! I picked up a bottle of the fragrance mist today. It smells overly sweet, I sense the aloe vera and the sandalwood definitely gives it its base. Yes, and that's why it has this pinky inky sugaryyy something in there. I Love It! The perfume smells great! And definitely will make your other half cosy up to you due to its warmth!!! Could work well for seduction if it matches your chemistry. It is seductive, sexy, not a young girl scent. But the vanilla isn't very overwhelming. I have the body wash. Luscious fragrance, which stays for many hours. Embracing. I think it's very easy to wear. Love, love, love! Not even dogs can sniff it out after that . I used to spray this on all my dolls as a child because it has that sort of plastic powder doll smell and I really enjoy that scent. Very sweet, warm, feminine and beautiful! I'm gonna wear it to office soon. It does, however last the perfect amount of time because as it starts to wear off it becomes subtle and very nice. Sweet, vanilla candy, sensual, beautiful. Kind of had a buggy spray smell! My friend said I smell yummy. This is warm, sweet, soft & delicious comfort in a bottle! I can smell this all day, that's very good, because the bottle is huge. The creme anglaise is noticeable, rich, and creamy. This smells really feminine in an aggressive way.in contrast to most of the other reviews I think this is strong. I'll have to keep looking for a dark, spicy amber elsewhere though. Pleasant, inoffensive, and versatile, but common. This one is a classic. For something that is a gourmand, this one never gets sickenly sweet. IF and that's a big one it would'nt contain a sweet note, it would be so fine! I like almost all of the notes in this scent. Eh, it's ok. This is a scent I had a while back. It's warm and sexy, in a cozy way. Makes for the ultimate 'come hither' scent. Victoria's Secret Amber Romance is the first VS scent I bought many years ago. The sugary, custard, vanilla scent is what predominates on me. Warm and delicious. But the spray itself is great. Will have to make do with the bodymist. But.! I did not immediately think cherry as that fruit, maybe apricot? My amber relationship has included superior ambers but you never forget your first. Gorgeous in a bottle! I used to wear this every day and even have the Shampoo and Conditioner. Enough with the frooty tooty scents. It is a perfect addition to your collection if you like vintage 90s style scents, a little ligther and you don`t want to spend more than 10 bucks.:-). I love the clean scent, warm scent and golden glow of amber. This and Endless Love are the best smelling body sprays I've ever smelled. everywhere you go! I love the cherry/milkiness/almond vibe so nicely. Not overbearing and blended well. I wore this in my late teens as a staple scent, I came back to it later in my 30's and it's completely nauseating to me! I also love the fact that it isn't expensive! On my chemistry it is strong and powerful. As with Vanilla Lace, I really miss the old formulation of this scentless of a chemical edgeyou can tell the downgrade in ingredient quality, but I suppose you can see that in every aspect of current day VS versus 90's VS when it was a lot more luxe and catered to a more elegant crowd and less teeny boppers that want 6 products for $30. its such a warm amber milky scent that I can see myself wearing on cold days in. Try many times to like it but it makes me phisically ill!! I think they've lost their minds. funny my friend told me this fragrance is nice and she liked it. 9/10. It gave me big headache. It smells really comfortable. I'd avoided this one for so long - amber brings back unpleasant memories of an acquaintance. I really don't know whether I like this or not. I like wearing it during cold weather, but not during the summer. I just got the body mist version of this and im not too impressed. I tried the other night and it was way too sweet, kind of a sickly sweet. To me it's like an intro fragrance to those trying out vanilla fragrances. In my opinion is a very elegant scent and it smells even better during cold times. Delicious, warm smell. For the fragrance mist: This is actually intense for a body spray. Smells really nice for about 5 mins and its completely gone from your skin. Smells like straight sugar and a weird form of amber. So anytime I smell any of these scents, it takes me back to the "good ol'days" of my youth, lol:). I think this one just barely outranks Sensual Amber for me because the "amber" isn't quite as strong. We'll see how people react with it. Not at all, just when you spray it, but then Fire and Ice becomes dense and mature, unlike Amber Romance which remains sweet and soft. Sweet, light, and fleeting. The amber and vanilla never gets to sweet. I loved it at first, but then half way something just went terribly wrong, I'm not into citrus scents, and if there is a note of citrus it should be really light. Makes me feel girly. I liked this one, very sweet but I found it a bit dense on my skin, I use it for evening wear, really. And the best apart is (aside from it smelling delicious), it lasts all day, with a lovely fuzzy sillage that lasts atleast a couple hourswhich for a body spray, is fantastic. Is she an older college student? There is a hint of amber in the base that I think makes it smell more sophisticated than your typical sweet sugar bomb. It smells more expensive than it is. Its a gorgeous and fun scent that smells like a combination of sugared peaches, creamy vanilla, and a light drizzle of honey. Such a yummy gourmand. The best option when it's not a perfume day for you but you still want to smell delicious and get noticed. It starts sharp with cherry fizz. It doesn't smell like snow or fire but it has that kind of warmth to it- I can almost feel it in my chest. I like sweet scents to an extent, but this was way over the top and gave me a pounding headache. I think I have to agree with the restroom comment. I love this fragrance. I purchased this a few years back along with Love Spell, and I LOVED IT! It is available as EDT, body mist and body care collection. Smell is warm, vanilla.great for those who like warm smell. A while ago i made a review of this one, and we were on winter. A hint of vanilla and sandalwood, not much to it really, simple and pretty. This packs a lot of punch for such a cheap scent--crazy sillage and impressive lasting power. I used to have Amber Romance several years ago and loved it but my taste evolved and changed and I haven't had it in my wardrobe for probably 10 years. I'd consider it a bedtime scent for me. Chocolate and vanilla gourmand time! The first snow of the season is gently falling, carpeting the ground & cloaking the smaller branches. I shower then spray this on me, pour a glass of wine with some macarons and enjoy reading confessions by Cristina lopez on kindle. It used to be so nice, one of their best if not the best. I admit it, im 30 and I still wear this like I did when I was 15 and I'm completely unapologetic about it. I say this about nearly all my scents but I can't stop sniffing myself. Too bad this isn't available in the EDT anymore. Definitely a long lasting scent. Amber Romance by Victoria's Secret is a Amber Vanilla fragrance for women. whats the powdery note? My mam gave this to me when I was 19 and I loved it. This is my go-to favorite scent! It's very similar to vanilla lace, but less sickeningly sweet. What the hell have they done to it? The amber is notorious here, also the vanilla. Guaranteed compliments and "who smells so good?!" It's warm indeed and sweet but in a good way. My freshman year of highschool, this was my signature scent. I like body sprays and use them often. i am totally craving this..this has to be hands down my favorite amber fragrance in VS and then there is bombshell forever but that is a fresh scent..the amber in this is so strong and last for hours and the lotions are amazing..i will be getting this again..and i use to have the old bottles and this fragrance as it ages gets stronger and more sweet totally worth the price and it reminds me alot of Katy Perry's Meow..compare..they are not exact exact but pretty close with the sweetness..interesting how notes combined can almost smell the samei have to get this againits the only one i feel will last long and is totally worth the purchase in VS.. Love it! I own the bodyspray and when first sprayed it seems to become a sugar bomb but it quickly calms down to a furry and pleasant amber that plays nice on skin. Warm and cozy scent. I have to say that Amber Romance stands on its own among other Amber scents that I've tried so far. I have a lotion of this amber romance. Beautiful, reasonable, sweet,great for winter months. I absolutely LOVE Amber Romance. It's intesive, rich and perfume-y dark cherries with whipped vanilla cream in the first spritz, but on my skin dries down to a creamy dark vanilla. This was an unexpected like. I think it's actually blended really well for such an inexpensive frag. Long lasting, spray sparingly of course. it's very affordable, just like the scented body lotion that goes with it. It smells absoultely beautiful with the nice deep amber and it is nice and lightly sweet. Very sentimental fragrance for me. A sweet (not candy-sweet), slightly dusty-powdery (from the hint of sandalwood) and musky vanilla with just a touch of fruitiness. Read about this perfume in other languages: Deutsch, Espaol, Franais, etina, Italiano, , Polski, Portugus, , , Nederlands, Srpski, Romn, , , , . It also feels to me to be the strongest of the mists Victoria's Secret has. I have In Control and the dry down is almost identical, which is good because I'm almost out of it and it's kinda hard to find. Sharp alcoholic soapy- sweetness at the beginning but when time goes by it settles into a lovely caramel drydown. i really like those sweet notes contrasting the spicy ones.try it and you'll see i am right. Always gave me a little bit of a headache. This one isn't. :) I love it. This was about 2 or 3 years ago. Layers very well under any amber and its great under Coco Mademoiselle. This is a wonderful scent, and I swear the vanilla in it makes it more yummy. I prefer Bath and Body Work's Warm Vanilla Sugar which smells more mature and has more depth to it (vanilla, basmati rice water, and coconut). I like it, but I don't love it, so I won't buy another bottle. Its been around quite a long time. Unfortunately, It only last for 5-10 minutes on me. By then I was already a full-fledged perfumista. It is a must have for every gourmand lover. I bought Fire and Ice based on some reviews, they said these two smell very similar. What cherries? Cherries? Behind her is a wall of windows with fall trees lining the view, deeply steeped with their leaves in end of fall colors. The squared shoulder bottle lasts and lasts. This smells like the feeling you get when you sit by the warm fireplace after spending a bright snowy afternoon outside. I will repurchase this one. This is nice sprayed on clothes. Though it doesn't have a lasting scent, you need to re apply a few hours or so. It's a great cuddy, cashmere-sweater and cold night scent. I dont like it. Is too sweet and I think this fragrance is very sweet, cloying that involves, as a mixture of eggs, sugar and vanilla essence! Maybe the body spray is lighter, I've only had the perfume. My romance with Amber began when I was really into any fragrance with amber. This will always be my staple. I've not smelled anything else that I'd say is similar to the OG Amber Romance. It lasts for around a few hours, not too long, but it can definitely be smelled from a distance away.. I think this is cozy and lovely. For some reason body lotion smells even better! I hate the smell of this stuff, VS secret garden is more miss than hit with me, I only like Pure Seduction and Pear Glace, this one gave me an instant headache, possibly because I don't like amber scents too much. The body mist does last a long time on me and I was going to get the perfume but decided I don't really need to. I think I will need to pick a bottle up because I love how it smells. I also try to avoid Sensual Amber from BBW. However I'm not planning to repurchase it. Gave it away. It is linier on me and does not really morph. Sweetness. It's actually blended in a way that the vanilla and amber aren't distinguished separately to me and it also doesn't smell vanilla cherry either. I love wearing it mostly in fall/winter. I ordered the body mist online and sometimes even use it to spritz the corners of my room because it smells so good and gives me a cosy feeling. Receive a lot of compliments when I wear it. One of my friends wears this, so I associate this scent with her. it lasts shorter than Anything i've ever had including other VS body mists, the scent reminds me of a cheap body wash or soap, maybe it's just my skin but i don't smell any vanilla whatsoever. Would recommend this to any vanilla lover out there! I must find another presentation, I think the only one available in my country is the body cream. It is simple, but so well done! This stuff smells soooooo good! its so mellow and warm and rich it feels like a million years old ,like the amber/ it possess you in unlimeted ways..no mater how much you try to stray you always come back to it as if it is your destineyso relaxing so serene and pure. This is the only perfume from them that I really liked. I've been using the body mist on a daily basis post-shower and am thoroughly addicted. I thought I would like it more, because I smelt it on one of my friends and it smelt amazing.. A lot more mature and deep than some of the others in the range, smells quite expensive for what it is; similar to Bare Vanilla in that sense. I recommend it for dating or when you want to meet someone when you go out at night. I thought "oh its Victoria Secret all of their perfumes smell good". Sexy and innocent, soft and confidentvanilla and the finest amber in any perfume anywhere. I start wearing Amber Romance is September all the way through February. I've even smelled it the next day when waking up. It is very warm and creamy, and I can see how somebody would love this in colder weather. The amber shined most with me, then the sweeter notes. The scent itself is like mature but with a hint of youthfulness. I like this is sensual soft perfume. The ones I really like are vanilla lace, amber romance and love spell which has grown on me. I think it could be appropriate for night time wear, in cold weather. A unique smelling scent but a little strong. I didn't get any milk, sugar, or fruit from this, but a few of my friends did. At first, vanilla is the most dominant note to me, then the cherry arrives and it becomes very similar to Revlon's Fire & Ice but nicer. Or a childless, middle age beauty who will forever look younger than her real age. The fragrance was such a lovely, soft, and creamy amber. I remember being a late teen and searching for a way to start smelling "sexy." My favorite fragrance of all! I just don't like it on me. Warm cocoon of seductive amber and cream with cherry on top, beckoning your significant other to have a taste..Nice imagination girl. Perfect for colder months. I actually bought a bottle and while I think it's too loud and VERY fruity on me, I somehow adore it anyway.
