Bare is an eau de parfum for women launched by Victoria’s Secret in July 2022, the house’s first major new fragrance in five years, signed by Nathalie Benareau and Carlos Viñals of Symrise. Built on an exclusive blend of musks, this woody floral opens on Madagascar mandarin, sets Egyptian violet petals at its heart and rests on Australian sandalwood.
Top
Madagascar mandarin opens the composition. The house lends it an effervescent freshness: a sparkling, bright start, wrapped from the outset in the blend of musks that forms the backbone of the perfume.
Heart
Egyptian violet petals form the heart. The house describes a floral heart as if moistened with dew, where violet softens the liveliness of the citrus and prepares the warmth of the base.
Base
Australian sandalwood makes up the base, warm and enveloping, which the house compares to a cocoon. It rests on the exclusive blend of musks, designed to melt into the skin and follow its scent.
A woody floral
Bare belongs to the woody fragrances, with a floral facet the house claims by classifying it as a woody floral. Sandalwood and musks give it its grounding, violet its softness and mandarin its brightness.
