I bought a sample of this perfume, not expecting much. I hadn't looked into the size, nor the smell, so when it arrived and the sample was generous, and it smelled amazing, I knew I had to get my hands on the full sized one.
The bottle is the same shape as a lot of Britney's Fantasy range, the only difference between any of them is the coloring (and of course the smells!). This one is white with pink gems, and to me its far more striking than any of her others.
The smell is different to any others that I've used. It's like pure sugar!! I love sugar. In saying that though, it also smells quite fruity, but I can't place my finger on it. It dries down to be quite musky, vanillary, sweet. It's really nice. It sticks to my clothing and smells amazing, and as for lasting time, while I can't smell it anymore, I know it lasts a good few hours as the potent smell, before drying down. Delightful!
So I am not too sure what to make if this one I heard great things about vanilla scents so I bought a almost full bottle. I don't know how old it was but it seemed to smell ok. I do get a brown sugar cinnamon type scent lingering in the background it's mild but there with what I think is supposed to be vanilla. But I do get this synthetic type chemical plastic type not like Barbie dolls smell in it. You know like those smelly erasers that type of scent. I almost notice it in the original fantasy too. I liked the opening of this with the Litchi but that soon disappeared. I think there are better vanilla scents out there but it's worth a try especially if you haven't tried many.
