Fantasia

Fantasia is a woody scent with a strong sweet gourmand streak, plus spicy and floral touches. Anna Sui released it in 2017 as a feminine fragrance.

The opening pairs raspberry with pomelo, a tart fruit against a bitter, grapefruit-like citrus, with pink pepper adding a bright, tingling spice. A general floral accord gives the heart a soft, pretty middle. Praline brings the gourmand element, a nutty, caramel sweetness that becomes more noticeable as it settles. The base is cedar, Himalayan cedar and cypress, so the finish is dry and woody rather than sugary, which is what keeps the praline in check.

It is a feminine scent. There are no community reports yet on how long it lasts or how far it carries, so there is no firm wear data; the mix of fruit, praline and dry woods suits autumn and cooler days, for people who like sweet scents with a woody frame.
