In 2018, Victoria's Secret added Bare Vanilla to its catalog, a composition classified in the gourmand family. Its opening combines bergamot, a citrus with hints of fruit, sugar, and freshness, and apple, fruity and sweet, with a distinctly gourmand inflection. This family draws on the register of desserts, candied fruits, and sugary treats.
Top notes
Bergamot, a citrus whose essence is obtained by expression of the peel, brings a freshness tinged with hints of fruit and sugar here. Apple extends this opening with a fruity, sweet touch of gourmand tonality, reminiscent of the crisp, juicy flesh of the freshly cut fruit.
A gourmand family
Gourmand compositions draw inspiration from pastry and confectionery: sugar, fruits, milky or caramelized notes. In Bare Vanilla, apple directly carries this register through its sweet, gourmand character, while bergamot adds a fruity, sweet facet, heightened by its citrus freshness.
