“Victoria's Secret Frostmelt Fragrance, have exceeded my expectations in terms of both scent”

Salve M.
1/18/24

The Frostmelt Fragrance Mist and Lotion offer a delightful blend of fresh mint and chocolate, creating a unique and invigorating aroma. Not only does the scent smell fantastic, but it also lasts for an impressively long time, providing a refreshing and long-lasting experience. In addition, the Moisture Balm hydrating lip balm has become an essential part of my daily routine, particularly during the winter months. Its hydrating formula effectively moisturizes and protects my lips, keeping them soft and smooth even in harsh, dry conditions. Overall, I've been thoroughly pleased with these Victoria's Secret products. They have consistently delivered on their promises and have become go-to items in my beauty collection. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality fragrance and lip care products.

“Extremely Dissatisfied with Order Experience”

Sofiya H.
10/15/24

I placed an order on July 19,2024, with the order number VSTH00043705(Todays date is 16.10.2024), and I am extremely disappointed with my experience. It has been nearly three months, and I still have not received my items. Initially, my order was lost, and after that, I was informed of multiple delivery issues. Each time, I was told that a new order had been created, but then items I had ordered were marked as unavailable. If my original order had been shipped as stated, there would be no need to remove those items. I am now requesting a full refund, as I find the service I have received to be unacceptable. The customer support team has not been able to assist me effectively, and I am left feeling frustrated. I hope this review helps others make an informed decision before ordering.

Beautiful, good quality, sexy underwear. My favorite things however are fragrances and lip gloss. Nothing beautifies a face like Victoria's Secret over your regular pretty lip stick! Smile!

Another antiquated business that needs you to create yet another marginal internet account instead of using top-level single sign on SSO providers e.g. Google, Facebook

I love this company. Their clothes are super cute, fit true to size, and last a surprisingly long time. I usually wear my jeans out within a year but all my VS jeans I've had for many years and still am enjoying them! :o) The only reason I *almost* gave them 4 stars is bc they do not cater as much to the larger breasted women as they used to. I'm a curvy gal and I would like more options for undergarments without having to go to UK websites. But heck, no one's perfect and above all the other companies I truly love their products all the way from their clothing and lingerie to their cosmetic, body lotion, body shimmer, self-tanner or fragrance! What a great, well-rounded company! They truly encompass all the lovely portions of being a soft, sweet-smelling feminine gal. :o)

P.S. If they people at VS see this review, can ya'll please looking in to bringing back the knee-high Sketchers boots w the 4(?) inch heel? I went through 3 pairs over the years bc they truly were the perfect boot! So comfortable, even for all day wear! :o) Thank you!

Tip for consumers:
Def worth the money and time! Great company!

I'm older than the college age that Pink by Victoria's Secret markets to however I can only comfortably wear the Pink brand underwear for some reason. It's absurdly comfortable and the Pink leggings too. I just wish they would get those giant labels off of the clothing. I have noticed though, that the quality in general has taken a serious nosedive. The sizing for one thing is totally inconsistent. You really need to read reviews first to see whether it runs too big or small and hardly anything runs "true to size" anymore. Even the bras and panties run one way or the other now. I've ordered multiple items in different colors in the same size and they're not only different sizes but different material too. A pair of leggings recently arrived with a hole. I returned them and they charged me shipping even though they told me on the phone that they wouldn't. I am going to stop shopping there.The brand seems only popular with a certain under-culture now anyway. I just purchased a sweater from there and the entire thing unraveled within a few minutes. I will never, ever shop there again.

PROS: I mean, they've got a user-friendly site, I like the product -- who doesn't own something from vickys?

CONS: The shipping and handling is just WRONG. PLAIN WRONG. The other day, I put a bunch of bathing suits into my basket and one dress. The shipping and handling charges came out to about $22! In what world does it cost THAT MUCH to ship domestically to NY--GROUND SHIPPING no less! There were absolutely NO bulk items (like overcoats, boots, handbags or any others) that could possibly have contributed to an astronomical charge as that.

I decided to forego $200 worth of bathing suits and took my business to another site.

Cute stuff, but pricey for average quality things. I've bought a $10 bra that lasted longer than their $40 bra, worked just as well, and was a cuter style!

For shipping paid $ 30! Then demanded another $ 25, without explaining the reason! Consultants do not answer questions, all emails standard answer - our delivery service is the best.

Who makes underwear with a seam in the front. How uncomfortable! What happened to seamless underwear from a few years ago? You thought it was a bad idea? NO

Happy & grateful because Victoria's Secret bras are THE ONLY bras that fit me right! I have (& I counted) close to 25 bras everyone is a Victoria's Secret bra & they're beautiful! I also love their hoodies & many many other items! To be honest I do need to say I'm no longer "the Secret size" & wish they carried some of their cuter items a bit bigger I'd spend a whole lot more money!

I decided to return ordered goods. I sent the package on the correct address - I checked it 3 times. Apparently there was nobody in the return center in France when they tried to deliver it, so it anded in package shop. VS's eShopWorld Shop customer service didn't at all want to help with getting the package, although it was their foult it couldn't been delivered. I provided them all tracking number and all necessary information and they just didn't care at all!

Anything purchased from this company is a complete and utter waste of your money. The clothing is made from cheap quality materials, the prices are OUTRAGEOUS, simply because there is a brand name logo slapped on everything and the only promotions that are ever available are at the end of the year and once every summer.
TIP: DON'T PAY FOR A LOGO PEOPLE!

Tip for consumers:
Ur reps should be more useful to somethings especially something so minor as this an maybe the the consumer will be held accountable for Victoria's secret negligence

I ordered a $30 sweater, and had to pay an equal $30 in shipping fees. Their "free shipping" and discount promos NEVER apply to Canadian customers so don't bother ordering from here if you're shipping to Canada. The website said that shipping takes 10-14 business days. They forgot to mention that it takes a FULL WEEK for them to even process it. I ordered ONE sweater, there is no reason it should have taken 5 business days for my order to leave their warehouse, and then another 14 business days for me to receive it. And I never received my tracking info, if I'm paying this much money in shipping fees, I expect a damn tracking number. Talked to their representatives, was lied to and told that my order had shipped when it hadn't just to get me to leave them alone. They were rude and took forever to reply. Bottom line, don't order from this website if you don't want to receive your clothes until over a month later and you really enjoy terrible customer service. Also, their clothes are SO overpriced, the crappy quality is not worth it. And you will pay double the price of your order in shipping fees. Would NOT recommend ordering from this site.

Im VS customer since 1998, I'm not a big buyer online, but this time, January 27,2022, I place an order with 17 itens, and for no reason, the VS cancelled my order, I called 3 days late to check my order, and it was cancelled. The customer service put a new order, and it was ordered to be delivered overnight, yesterday the order didn't arrived. Today I called and they say it was cancelled AGAIM, so the customer service try to redo it, and automatically was cancelled. My nice will travel to her country on February 3, and it was for her…. Today they said …. " I'm sorry, but it can't be delivered tomorrow"
Really? I'm customer for almost 25 years, and when I need to used my privilegies to help my nice, it CANT BE DONE?
It is very unacceptable! I'm sorry!
Im very disappointed with that situation!

If you are size 0, shop here. If you are anything above a 3, don't bother.
I went to get some "goodies" for my 10th anniversary trip. I am not a rich woman, but we have a good income... I saw those snooty salesgirls ignore women who were asking questions. Just because their jeans came from Walmart! (I overheard them talking and insulting the customers).
I looked everywhere for my size in a nice teddy and some panties... I was rudely told they Victoria's Secret does not make morning for "women your size"! Then she walked away! I did find a bra I like, went to the counter and got the same rude snotty attitude!
As soon as I hauled out my Luis Vatton wallet, her whole attitude changed! I made sure she rang it up, and did everything... then I told her I changed my mind and was going somewhere that caters to " women my size!". (Just for comparison, at that time I wore a size 8)
I AM NEVER GOING BACK AND HAVE TOLD EVERYONE I KNOW THE SAME THING!

Sadly they have next to nothing for plus sizes. I wish they would do something about this issue. Plus size women shouldn't be discriminated against just because there's more to love.
