Secret Wish

Left to seek out other fruity perfumes as it's staying power wasn't so strong, In between I tried d&g light blue hoping for something similar with a longer lasting power. However,with light blue , I kept thinking that something was missing as it just smelt like a woody citrus . recently when I was discussing perfumes with my boyfriend , he suddenly mentioned that there was one perfume that I had worn at the very beginning of our dating stages which was his favourite as it was "very nice" and could make him go crazy.... (I knew he was talking about secret wish and was surprised he would remember it even after years of going without this perfume ) at the same time I was starting to get tired of testing other perfumes and couldn't find something that could take my mind off secret wish's fruity and pleasant fragrance.. so.... I finally bought back my first love and all the good memories with it! At a brief sniff , secret wish would remind you of d&g light blue due to some similar composition, But secret wish is more than that- it is fruitier, sweeter and more enticing . It smells of honey and peaches below the initial refreshing citrus notes that makes it different from the other similar fragrances . Give it a deeper sniff and you will feel that the fragrance is rounded out!

This is a perfect summer scent. I get mostly peaches, with some black currant and melon. I'm not a big fruity scent person but I absolutely love this. It's pretty close to photorealistic to me. It's effortlessly fresh, fruity, watery, and uplifting. It's light and splashy, but smells more expensive than it is. It doesn't smell "luxe", per se, but it smells better than most of the fragrances in Sephora and Ulta without even trying. It's got great projection for the profile and overall is a great value. Some might find it a little juvenile, but I think it's refreshing. I bought a mini of this strictly for the bottle, but I am very pleasantly surprised by how much I like this. It's not the type of fragrance I would normally go for, but I'm strongly considering a bottle, or at least a travel size, only having worn it for the first time today. I can be a bit of a scent snob, but this is proof that you really just have to get your nose on something to properly judge it. 8.5/10.

I love Anna Sui! She manages to make some pretty fab eccentric perfumes in kitschy little eye-catching bottles. I bought this years back at Victoria's when they were selling the fairy scents and this has always been my favorite of hers. It's very light, airy, and doesn't have that in your face sweetness like a lot the ones out there today. This is very clean, sweet, and fresh smelling. I get the comparison to D&G as far as the lemony freshness goes, but Light Blue is so much stronger on me and I HATE HATE HATE the masculinity of the cedar note in it as it's headache inducing for me... so I've never cared for it. I usually wear this during the summer/spring months. It's a light frag so this doesn't last very long on the skin, maybe 4 or so hours, but that's really pushing it. I really like this though. I'm glad I could find a good lemon frag that's non offensive and has a lighter quality to it.

I have had a bottle of this perfume for awhile now, The bottle I have is when she was under Scannon perfumes which is Procter and Gamble. I think Secret Wish is better than Light Blue, I think it's mixed better, I don't think Dolly Girl on The Beach is 100% like Secret Wish they are a little different. To me Secret Wish has a creaminess to it, which I really like I'm surprised there is no vanilla in this. This perfume is great in the summer. I can smell the oak moss in this as well, which I have been loving oak moss lately. I have to say Anna Sui has two new Secret Wish perfumes, Fairy Dance Sun, and Fairy Dance Sparkle, you can get these perfumes at her New York store for $60 each for the 50ml, if you live in the USA you can call her store, and they will ship them to you. Lloyd's Pharmacy in the UK has Fairy Dance Sun.

This is truly a fairy-tale perfume minus all the intoxicating sweetness of Brittney Spears' Fantasy. The packaging truly gives one a sense for the type of scent inside the bottle: top notes of pineapple carry one away to a dream world. It is my favorite!!! I used to buy this at Victoria's Secret but they stopped carrying it, and now the ONLY reason I don't currently own it is that I couldn't find it in a store. Will order it online soon though. Another kind of comparable scent is Incanto's Shine; I recently picked up Shine at a store and was instantly reminded of Secret Wish, although at the time I didn't realize what specific note it was. Now I know that it is pineapple. For anyone who loves citrus florals, this is a winner.
