Hello everyone!

I discovered this perfume brand through this website, and when I spotted the quirky balloon-shaped bottle, I just had to have one. But after testing the scent in Letyal, I wasn't so sure. It's not really my thing - I struggle to find a perfume that I like on myself, and this one didn't quite hit the mark.

I have a complicated relationship with perfume. I rarely find one that I enjoy, and when I do, it's often a hit-or-miss situation. I either get a scent that's too overpowering, gives me a headache, or makes me feel uncomfortable.

But while browsing in Letyal, I found myself drawn back to the Anna Sui perfume counter. The quirky bottles caught my eye, and that's when I noticed the star of this review - Anna Sui Fantasia.

I tested it several times in the store before deciding to buy it, even though it's relatively affordable. I mean, 2500 rubles is a lot to spend on a whim, but I was willing to take the chance.

Once I was convinced that the perfume was comfortable for me, I finally made the purchase.

Anna Sui FantasiaFantasia Anna Sui is a floral, fruity, sweet perfume for women, launched in 2017.

Size: I opted for the 30ml bottle, as I'm not sure I'd use a larger size. It's a good amount, and I can always repurchase if I really want to. Other sizes available are 50 and 75ml.

Price: With the summer bonuses, I paid around 2500 rubles. I think it was cheaper before the December sales.

Where to buy: You can find Anna Sui Fantasia toilet water in Letyal, as well as on marketplaces and on Randeve.

Country of origin: The brand is from America.

The perfume comes in a standard box, which is a bit bigger than usual due to the unicorn design.

Anna Sui FantasiaAnna Sui FantasiaThe bottle doesn't have a cap, but the spritzer is located under the horse's belly. It's easy to reach with a woman's finger.

Anna Sui FantasiaI have to say, the bottle itself reminds me of an acorn

Anna Sui FantasiaI love the idea behind this fragrance, but I'm not a fan of tall bottles - they don't fit under my bathroom counter, so I have to store it elsewhere.

Anna Sui FantasiaNotes

Top notes: Pomelo and Pink Pepper;

Middle notes: Praline, Raspberry, and Floral notes;

Base notes: Cypress and Himalayan Cedar.

When I first smelled the fragrance, I knew it reminded me of something, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I checked out the fragrance's page on Fragrantica, where users share their associations with other scents, but nothing really stood out to me.

After some thought, I think I remembered! In my school days, I had a water from Shakira's S by Shakira Eau Florale. I'm pretty sure this fragrance is similar to that one, although they only share raspberry notes. I really want to get to a magnet board to see if I can find a picture of it to remember.

Shakira's fragrance was really delicate and didn't last long, but this one is definitely more substantial.

For me, Shakira's fragrance was super girly, but this one is like the same girl, but all grown up. I see her strolling through an amusement park with a sweet treat in her hand and a bunch of friends. The future is ahead of her, first crushes, and the first disappointments, as bitter as the cypress notes.

I can smell it on myself for a long time, even after just applying a few spritzes to my skin, not my clothes. It's a great conversation starter - people always compliment me and say I smell amazing

So, I'd say this fragrance is definitely a winner!

Anna Sui Fantasia Honestly, I'm not a fan of gourmand notes. Chocolate, caramel, vanilla - not my thing at all. So, it's surprising that praline didn't give me a gag reflex or at least a headache. Maybe other notes balanced it out. Although I feel something sweet, I'm actually enjoying it. I'm not sure if I'd wear it in the summer. Definitely not in scorching heat, but it's possible for a cool evening out.

Anna Sui Fantasia It's hard for me to break it down into individual components - I mostly feel it as a cohesive whole.

Anna Sui Fantasia If I listen closely, I can feel a subtle bitterness immediately after application - maybe it's the cypress and cedar that's kicking in. But that bitterness disappears quickly, and the chocolate candy filling takes center stage with a hint of raspberry.

Anna Sui Fantasia Verdict

It's tough to recommend or not recommend this perfume, as it's purely subjective. But I'd definitely give the brand a try, as their scents are interesting. I'm still trying to get to know the one with the siren. If you're into this sort of thing, I'd recommend giving it a shot. I'm really enjoying it, and the longevity is a plus. Right now, it's the only perfume I'm reaching for. When that wears off, I'm sure I'll go back to my old favorites, but for now, it's the one that's got my attention.
