Scandalous Dare

Scandalous Dare is a light, fruity floral with a prominent plum note and subtle tuberose, offering a softer, slightly more floral alternative to the original Scandalous. The scent starts with a sharp, sour plum opening that quickly mellows into a sweet, skin-scent-like blend of white florals, with a faint jasmine and gardenia-like character. The fragrance is delicate and understated, with moderate sillage and only moderate longevity, making it most suitable for casual wear or intimate settings. Some find it appealingly fresh and gentle, while others perceive it as generic, weak, or overly sweet. It lacks strong character or depth, bordering on the bland, and while it is more floral than the original, it doesn’t achieve the same impact or luxurious feel. It leans heavily toward a young, feminine aesthetic and can be perceived as a typical Victoria’s Secret scent—safe, familiar, and unremarkable. The best fit appears to be those who appreciate soft, subtle scents for everyday or nighttime wear, especially younger individuals seeking a light, sweet, and fresh aroma.
