Fantasia

Fantasia by Anna Sui is a bright, playful fragrance with a bold personality that matches its striking golden unicorn bottle. It opens with a lively burst of pomelo and pink pepper, bringing a tart, citrusy freshness. This quickly evolves into a gentle, sugary core dominated by raspberry and praline, softened by woody notes of cypress and himalayan cedar, creating a sweet yet airy fragrance that feels both youthful and slightly mysterious. The scent performs best in warm weather and is well-suited for spring and summer days, offering a light, summery aura that enhances a sense of whimsy and charm. Many users find it suitable for weekend outings or casual wear in sunny settings, with some describing it as a soft, pink-tinged fantasy that evokes fresh fruit and enchanted forest vibes. While the fragrance is remarkably coherent and pleasant for those who enjoy fruity, gourmand-leaning scents, its performance is notably limited in longevity and sillage — most find it lasts only half a day and projects modestly. Some users report it turning faint quickly or developing an odd, antiseptic-like drydown, while others appreciate its gentle, skin-scent effect and find it ideal for layering or for those new to sweet-fruit fragrances. Overall, it’s a charming, aesthetic-driven perfume that delivers a sweet, youthful experience rather than a sophisticated or long-lasting one. It's best appreciated as a fun, seasonal staple for those drawn to the bottle and the idea of a fairy-tale-like scent.
