Victoria’s Secret art of seduction

Victoria’s Secret is in the business of seduction: The lingerie, the Angels, the gilded limbs, the cleavage, the larger-than-life wings on the runway.

But what about the rest of us mere mortals? The brand offers up a new perfume to help us embrace our inner angel. With a heart of jasmine, red-ginger orchid, dark red calla lily and muguet petals; and a warm skin-like finish of amber, woods and musk; topped by citrus and fruit (crème de cassis, blood orange, plum, pineapple blossom, bergamot, and yuzu zest), Seduction Dark Orchid is one lusty cocktail. Sexy, sweet, rich.

To set the mood, Victoria’s Secret Angel Miranda Kerr poses with the signature you-caught-me-looking-flawlessly-amazing-yet-not-ready-for-pictures look that the VS girls are so known for.

The best thing about this fragrance? Seduction will only cost you $45 and a few spritzes will stay the night.
