my favorite flanker right here, one of my favorite all time perfumes, this is so sweet and just the correct amount of freshness to it, it's so good for summer and spring, so refreshing and puts me in a good mood, this is just perfect
Saw this on offer today for £11! Gave it a spray to see if the constant complaints about longevity are true....yep. I couldn't smell this on me within a minute, an hour later, I can't detect anything at all. I'd get better longevity out of a cheap body mist. Disappointed.
My favorite Fantasy flanker! I will literally cry and protest if Give Back Beauty discontinues this. The bubble gum note is chef’s kiss, and overall I just love how sweet, fruity, floral and gourmand this is. It’s just such a happy scent! And the bottle is so cute. Yes, you have to spray about 50 times if you want it to have any lasting power, but I don’t mind and otherwise I adore it. I sprayed it all over about 2.5 hours ago, and I can still smell the sweet, delicious bubble gum note around me. LOVE 🥰
This perfume has decent longevity, especially considering the price. At first, the fragrance is very sweet but with a mature twist... as it dries down, it turns into a beautiful fresh and sweet strawberry bubble gum marshmallow. I find myself coming back to this fragrance time and time again, have yet to find something like it. Great for layering as well, super versatile.
To me this smells like candy the entire time I’ve read a bunch of times that the bubblegum sent only lasts a few minutes and then disappears on me at last the entire time and it kind of smells like sweet marshmallows
I can't say I've ever seen myself wearing any release of the Fantasy line, but this one for me personally is the best one I've ever smelled and I have sampled almost all of them. It is fresh, watery, dewy, strawberry bubbly champagne that is just so comfortable to wear. It is not juvenile or gourmand sweet, it is perfect in it's own way. The best way to describe with few words I have mentioned before is: Watery Strawberry Bubbly Champagne. Already have back up bottles.
Of the Fantasies I have this has became my favorite. I mean, bubble gum, strawberry, & hibiscus, come on, of course I would love it. I love the opening, wish it stuck around longer. The lotv comes through pretty strong giving a fresh soapiness, but the cupcake grounds it. I smell the hibiscus, but the white florals command it. Candy is sweet, with a clean floral musk. The florals keep it from being too juvenile. I mostly wear to bed, I keep the Brits in my bedtime rotation. I find them cozy. I don’t know if I will wear out, it seems that my Brits have found their purpose in my collection. We shall see if that changes. I believe this could be worn year around for me. Nights only in Summer bc of our high heat & humidity or indoors. Candy has a pretty strong projection for a few hours, I can still smell prominently in the mornings from my clothing, my skin will smell sweet & clean. It has lasted about 5 hrs during the day, longer on clothing. I love these Britney perfumes, never thought I would say that. They have surprised me. I never thought I would be buying any celebrity perfumes, but several have surprised me. They are great for everyday wear w/o the worry of breaking the bank. I am about finished buying big hauls of fragrances, one more small one later this year & done. I have most everything I wanted. But I will still be going hunting for Fantasy flankers. 🤭 15/10
Cute girly smell. Unfortunately it is quite weak and dissspears fairly quickly, so it's ok to overspray.
This is a nice sweet fragrance abit synthetic but it’s affordable and can be used to layer with. I’m happy with it as I’ve found myself going back to nostalgic fragrances as newer designer perfumes are missing the mark. I found this fragrance to smell similar to Ariana grande’s Mod. Same notes. Either way it smells good
very pretty, but the dry down just feels like a generic sweet perfume. The notes of bubblegum and strawberry fade completely
**UPDATE: Gave this to a friend who immediately walked down memory lane. Glad she's found a place she's appreciated! ____________________________________________________________________ Listen. Long live Britney so don't come for me. But this fragrance has a bit of a cat pee smell to me. I don't know why, but it's there. I thought "maybe it just needs to sit for awhile". Well, it's been sitting for a year and it's still there. It only lasts a few minutes, but I don't wanna smell like that for any amount of time. Let's give the credit though: she will amp up sweetness when layering. And that is her only saving grace.
Just got this one to try recently and it is yummy!! This is much heavier on the fruity notes than the OG Fantasy. I definitely smell the bubblegum note at first, but then it starts to disappear after a few minutes. I really like this one. I like it better than the OG. This does still have the OG DNA, just brighter and more fruity. Perfect for summer and you can't beat the price! Britney is always dropping banger fragrances for us at a reasonable price and I am here for it! 💗🙌
This definitely slowly grew on me. At the initial spray it smells like an expensive strawberry champagne and it slowly dries down into a sweet cupcake. This perfume is really 2000s trashy mall perfume and I would 100% recommend it.
It's just OK. I finally gave in and bought 3 Fantasy flankers at Ross because they were super cheap, this being one of them. At 1st it's really sparkling, like champagne, which I am not usually a fan of, but it works here. The bubblegum is light & fleeting like everyone else says but it's nice to get that 1st burst of it. It's brand new but my sprayer is a little janky so it's coming out in all weird angles so I keep missing my arm, LOL - but this is what I am getting. 1st spray in air on skin - Pink champagne & bubble gum after about 2 mins - plastic/synthetic, chapstick like smell musk after 5 mins - faintly sweet, faintly floral synthetic musk The silage/projection is about zero. Longevity is about the same, LOL.
I found this at DDs Discounts for 10 bucks and picked it up because a social media guy perfumer said it was the best of this line. To me it's very much like a candied up Circus Fantasy with a splash of BR 540 to go with that trend. Like Circus, it leans unisex.
Really nice sour plum note to it. Definitely gives a midnight theme to it. One of my favourites
Tbh I don't love this one. I find it a tad too sweet for my liking. My tastes have changed since getting older. It's not the best britney fragrance out there. I prefer midnight or circus although circus is quite sweet.
I really like this line. This one is a very nice scent. Just smells so sweet and edible
For $20 NIB, I quite like it and think it was an absolute steal! I feel like it's rather versatile with the rest of my collection, which is great as I like layering. I would rate this higher if the longevity wasn't so short. It's about 3 hours on me tops; not bad, but could be better. I don't mind that *too* much, considering the price I got it at and how uplifting and sweet the scent is. It's a fun, casual perfume that makes me feel young.
I saw this had bubble gum (fav) it was at a discount so I took the chance. Oh my I am pleasantly surprised. I got the immediate bubble gum scent but why does go away so soon. It’s the best part! I get cupcake and thank goodness it’s not an overly sweet cupcake. It does dry down to a light floral musky scent. I can tell the projection isn’t that great and most likely not last past 4 hours on skin. So I’m giving hope it does over time but I can tell I most likely will finish this bottle pretty quickly because I do love this one. And I get lots of compliments . I get no headaches or weird off putting notes. It’s just so pleasing to smell on your skin. I saw comparisons to Yara candy and absolutely no resemblance to each other. I have Yara candy and it is very synthetic powdery sour candy that can give you a headache from overspraying. Candied Fantasy smells like a grown up bubble gum cupcake scent. She’s beautiful and dreamy . I’m glad I have her i just wish it lasted longer and projected stronger.I need this in a body oil and lotion. Edit: I really do love this one I put a pretty big dent in my bottle. And I kinda still have a bubble gum ish linger to it . It might be a forever purchase that’s if they don’t discontinue. It’s a nice stay at home, or after a bath, chill errands or something. I do go pretty hard on the sprays to get it to last longer. So kicking myself for not buying a backup at the price I a saw at Ross.
This is my ride or die. I would risk it all for this potion bottle of juicy strawberry bubblegum goodness. She dipped her toe in a tiny bit of masculine cologne to soften it a bit and it WORKS. I’d like to add that this is my most complimented perfume from other women!
I will say that I am someone who always sprays multiple times on skin, hair, and clothes. Because of this, my experience is probably different from others. But I will wear this fragrance to work and to bed and I'll still smell it on me hours later or the next morning. I love the bubblegum note, but I do agree that it does not last as long as the others. It still becomes this really fun and sweet scent that I can't get enough of, but it is true that the bubblegum note does not last very long. I can still smell it on myself throughout the day even if others do not smell it. I love pulling this out because of how deliciously sweet and youthful it is, and it has become one of my favorites!
so cute and fun! definitely a bright sweet girly fragrance but i consider it to be super versatile and friendly, i wear this eeeverywhere!! the drydown imo is pure soft but noticable bubblegum and though it doesnt last super long i find layering it with a sweet marshmallow perfume to do wonders. its not a sticky sweet, not syrupy or grossly artificial - just the perfect amount of candy that merges with a classic jasminey perfume smell in a way that makes it feel classy but still youthful and joyful
I was a bit hesitant to buy this at first because of the mixed bags reviews. The top note is definitely a bubblegum sweet scent but drys down to a more subtle, almost musky smell (I don’t know why but it reminds of a little of YSL black opium?) it has grown on me and I love it☺️
A little bit more mature than the original Fantasy. I have really enjoyed it. I probably wouldn't purchase again since the silage isn't great and it disappears within a few hours.
Did not expect to enjoy this one as much! It's sweet but not too overwhelming and amazing price.
So my original reviewed somewhere down there was wrong, I take it back. Turns out this honestly just needed to sit for a few months. I must’ve gotten a super fresh bottle. This is beautiful. It’s a bubblegum cupcake,Lasts a good amount of time considering its price point. it’s a winner. If you’re thinking about it it’s cheap. You should try it.
super nice sweet smell that makes me want to frolic in a field. the bottle is cute too
This perfume smells so strongly of vanilla honey graham crackers to me. A little fruity but overwhelmingly graham crackers. I had a unanimous agreement that it smelled like a mall, like teenage mall girl. It's very strong to me, one spray and I can still smell it on myself after 8+ hours out. Overpowering and sweet but I'm a huge fan of it.
I fell down a Fantasy rabbit hole recently after seeing it all over the cheapie beast message boards and reading such rave reviews on each info page here on Fragrantica. I now have the OG, Intense, Midnight, Sheer, Naked, Blissful, Hidden, Jungle, Fantasy I Did It Again, and (as of today) Candied. I have yet to be disappointed in either the experience of the scents or they're sillage and longevity. In a nutshell, Candied is strawberry hibiscus wine and puffy pink bubblegum. It's sweet without being stifling, there's a bit of sparkle via hibiscus, just a hint of fresh/green in the LOTV, the jasmine here is all cream, and the bubblegum and strawberry are light and fun, rather than heavy and syrupy (which is how I experience Yara, which I'd say it's similar to). It dries down a touch powdery and puffy, reminiscent of dry, warm skin and pink soap, in the best way. I don't think I'll be able to wear it in 90 degree weather, but this is so lovely in 70 degree spring weather. I experience this one as a beast, despite it being an EDT. One spray and I've filled the room and am trailing this all over the house. The bottle is adorable, as are they all. I have yet to be disappointed by Fantasy or any of her flankers.
