Victoria for Women Eau de Parfum Spray, 3.4 Ounce / 100 ml

The packaging, bottle, and fragrance of Lattafa's Victoria all make me feel like I should be in an episode of Bridgerton (wearing the Bridgerton blue dress, sneakily trying to eat bite sized, delicate, lemon and vanilla flavored cakes while hiding in a dark corner, watching the drama). I've read that Victoria is inspired by Dolce & Gabbana's Devotion, but that perfume does not agree with me at all (smells like sharp tea and cleaning fluid more than a gourmand on me for some reason), and I love Victoria. I also own and adore Akro's Bake, which is a sweet lemony cake scent on me, but Victoria feels more sophisticated and like a lemony dessert that you would get at an award winning avant-garde restaurant with French influences. Victoria is sugary without being heavy and cloying, and it feels light and fresh, yet it has strong sillage and lasts all day on me (and on fabric). It makes me think of lemon madeleines or something like pineapple upside down cake made with lemon instead of pineapple, because I feel like I can almost taste that toasted sugar crust along the cake. It's lemon pastries, it's creamy, it's toasted sugar, and it feels like it would melt on your tongue in the most enticing way. If you love gourmands, I highly recommend giving it a try. And, as always with Lattafa, it's such an amazing value. The bottle and fragrance are both so high quality that it's hard to believe that the price is so affordable. Victoria might be my favorite Lattafa fragrance, but I enjoy so many of them.

This perfume was a blind review and I absolutely LOVE it. I saw one of my favorite TikToker’s talk about this fragrance and I HAD to try it. I love lemon meringue and lemon cake scents which this has in it but it’s light and not overpowering. After it sits on the skin & hair it smells so sweet and delicious. It lasts on me and stays days later. The spray is great and it came perfectly packaged.

Smells amazing, lasts for quite awhile, especially given that it's a citrus perfume. Many Lattafa fragrances need to sit awhile in order to smell like they should, perhaps this one will get better with time but it is great fresh out of the bottle as well. It's supposed to be a dupe for Devotion by D&G though I can't attest to this since I've never sampled Devotion. The bottle is heafty and feels ceramic. The opening is lemony vanilla sweetness. The lemon dies down after awhile, but stays softly present, letting the powdery vanilla take over. I think it's worth the $40 ($45 when I purchased, though the price keeps dropping). There is a synthetic quality some describe as "lemon cleaner" I don't pick up on it to that extent. I would compare the smell to artificial lemon, think lemon extract over a fresh lemon zest dessert. There's a bit of sinus sharpness to it, I've heard this is common to the house of Lattafa as well. It isn't noticeable enough to stop me from wearing this, but those who have a sensitivity to fragrance may find it cloying or irritating. I like to layer this for a more complex scent, since all and all it is a very simple scent that doesn't evolve much through the day. I pair it with Giorgio Armani's Because it's You, which also has neroli, as well as rose and raspberry, which I find elevate the lemon vanilla of Victoria.

Nice scent pineapple vanilla to me.dry down sweet skin scent . Considering it’s a skin scent think the price was a little more than I would’ve normally the sprayer was excellent. The bottle I think is not of my liking . some people enjoy the bottle .I go for more of a classic bottle..Lattafa brand could have done better on this bottle . I collect so have many perfumes This is different than anything. I have right now in that scent Enjoy the pineapple. This was a blind buy.last 6 hours nice skin scent sweet but not to sweet . On dry down soft vanilla with a hint of pineapple.Paris corner also has many nice sents .if in medical field .some very nice skin scents on dry down sweet.about 6 hours

I was hesitant to do a blind buy but was hoping it was going to live up to the hype. It goes above and beyond my expectations. This fragrance has the sexiest dry down of a clean lemony vanilla with a hint of powder. It is so feminine and beautiful. So far I am 7 hours into the wear and it remains beautiful and is long lasting. I’d say it is worth the money as the quality goes far beyond that price point in my opinion. I feel like this is a versatile fragrance and you can layer it with other fragrances quite nicely. I tried to layer this with honor and glory (another beautiful lataffa fragrance) they pair beautifully. It could be worn as either a casual or layer it to dress it up a bit. This is a fragrance that I don’t believe I will be able to live without. Also the bottle is heavy and of good quality. Very vanity friendly.

Buy this now! I sprayed it on before taking a shower to test it. It was a strong semi sweet vanilla lemon cake and it is heavenly. It’s just the right about of sweetness that you can pair with other things. The lemon is not in your face, it’s subtle. I figured it would need to macerate like most of these do. Not her! Took my shower and she was still on. The fragrance got better. She was still projecting. Now let me tell you how to take her next level. If you have it in the collection still, pair it with B&BW Iced lemon pound cake. I walked into work and my coworker thought I brought a lemon pound cake with me. If you want to enhance the vanilla, pair with Vanilla Matrimony by Chanceaux Parfumes. Cake on top of vanilla cake. Both of the previous pairings make it thick, rich, and heavy winter fragrances. For summer, because yes she is a year round girlie, pair with the vanilla Yoni rescue body oil. You can purchase it here on Amazon. It is a treat by itself. These two together in the summer will be perfection.

When I read about the notes in this perfume, I was excited about the promise of complexity and richness. However, upon application, I found it to lean more towards a youthful, sweet scent than I anticipated. Despite this, I still wear it because i already bought it. The lemon and creamy notes are delightful, providing a refreshing twist. However, the sweetness can be overwhelming at times, which distracts from the other notes. While the fragrance is pleasant and has its charming features, it wasn’t quite what I expected based on the notes. It leans more juvenile, and while that's not entirely a bad thing, it may not suit everyone's taste.

It's a little strong at first but then when I can't smell it anymore, I get a lot of compliments on how good I smell. It smells delightful why red n I smell it on someone else. That's how I ended up buying it. I'm keeping it.
