Jungle Fantasy

I can't believe how under the radar this release came to be. When I first heard of it I thought it might be a joke because of its kind of risqué name... "Jungle Fantasy" while playing on the "Fantasy" names of her previous scents does have a stigma attached to it, but even with all the "free Britney" stuff going on m, nothing seemed to raise hackles or interest in the fragrance release, which is unfortunate because this one is quite a gem. I bought it without knowing what it smelled like so it was a gamble but because I have loved her releases since Curious was gifted to me for Chrismas way back in 04, I have loved some of her scents and she seems to have a real lucky streak for putting out good ones (I do love the original Fantasy too) I first sprayed this just onto the box to get a sense of it and make sure it didn't have anything awful going on, but then I sprayed it right on my skin. Its opens quite.. fresh. The "violet leaf, yuzu and watermelon" smell like a fresh shower, like right after you get out the shower and you smell just clean and refreshed, then it hits you with a floral note, like the description says "hints of gardenia, Gustavia flower and water lily." And then it mellows out to the warm "tonka and cupcake." So it does match up to its descriptions but I really get a "fresh shower" followed by a light floral note then a warm finish. I think it is a divine fragrance and another win for the fragrance house of Britney Spears. The only negative about it, and this is common with her scents is that it is not the longest lasting scent. You can implore the many tricks of the trade to get it to last longer (applying over scent free emollients, etc) but I believe it is worth it. I got this for a fairly low price and will thoroughly enjoy it, and the bottle is absolutely gorgeous and luxe feeling. I would totally recommend and think it is fabulous. I feel bad it went seemingly sight unseen it has more reviews Herr than anywhere else I've seen but more can't hurt.

This is one of the few Fantasy perfumes that I genuinely like the scent of and doesn’t smell too much like a shampoo. I can’t wear shampooey perfumes because I find them screechy. jungle Fantasy isn’t screechy and is juicy and wearable and genuinely has a good watermelon note in it. Unfortunately it really does wear like a body spray. It’s a real shame because this is much more of a true watermelon scent than Island fantasy, but it lasts for about 5 minutes before becoming a skin scent and then it’s gone within about an hour. It’s better on clothing but yeah.... They really are taking the p!ss with this one! The 100ml only cost me £15, and I still feel like I was robbed 😅 Edit - I'm obsessed with this after a few wears in very hot and humid weather. I got a compliment on it when I'd had it on for a while too, so maybe I just go a bit anosmic to it myself? I genuinely despise L'Imperatrice and Be Delicious (sour, sharp and chemically to my nose!) so i don't get a strong similarity between those and Jungle Fantasy..... I think the faint cupcake note might be what's making this more palatable to me. Not that I normally go for cupcake perfumes but I like the sort of sweet and ever so slightly plasticy accord it creates within this composition. I liked it straight away but didn't think it would become a love, and I actually love this on a hot day now!

Jungle Fantasy is currently my favorite fantasy flanker for everyday wear. It's one of those shampoo-type flankers (if you're familiar with the shampoo in question, you'll immediately associate it with that scent), but that's not a problem here. Firstly, the scent is very clean and pleasant, and secondly, the top notes have the distinction of remaining largely identifiable throughout the day, which is quite rare and worth praising. It's very juicy, like a blend of ripe watermelon and beautiful tropical flowers. As time goes on, the base reveals itself, quite simple but making all the difference: a base closer to biscuit than cream, which prevents the fragrance from becoming cloying while still allowing it to last all day. I love leaving my office and returning to smell the cute little sweet/floral cloud it has left behind! This fragrance doesn't have the over-the-top character of Did It Again, for example; it's quite tame, much more so than its name suggests, but it remains rather sweet and fruity. Its truly interesting aspect is its dominant ozonic/aquatic character, supported by a gourmand base—it really works and it's surprising. I also note that this one seems much more unisex than most Fantasy fragrances.

UPDATE: I am giving this to a friend. Not because I don't love her (because I do!), but because I don't wear her anymore. I'm sad to report the longer she's sat on my shelf, the weaker she has become. Which really bums me out. Couple that with the almost chemically opening (to me)--I'm going to pass it onto someone who truly enjoys every aspect of the fragrance. ___________________________________________________________ One of my favorite Britney fragrances! I didn't have super high expectations on it, but let me tell you: it has a photorealistic watermelon scent, the gardenia is beautiful, and the cupcake gives it a sweet little something. Longevity on me isn't great, but I re-apply! Not overpowering, it's a very well done skin scent. It reminds me of a high end baby shampoo or lotion but not in a synthetic way. In the way a new baby has that new baby smell--you know what I'm talking about? This is one I auto grab when I'm not sure what I want to wear that day.

The name is misleading. I absolutely can't imagine the jungle smelling like that. With a name like that, I can't help but think of Kenzo's Jungle... It's completely different! On the other hand, it's a lovely creation, both aquatic and airy, fruity but not too sweet, floral but light. If in the '90s you loved "Eau d'Eden," "Eau par Kenzo," or "Eau d'Issey," this Britney Spears is for you! I was looking for a fresh and light fragrance for sunny days, it's done ! You can go heavy-handed (I actually recommend it), because unfortunately, it's a bit weak. And as usual with "Fantasy," what a lovely bottle!

I absolutely love this fragrance! Smells like a sweet and fresh watermelon candy shampoo. It does have cupcake in it which is noticable to my nose because of the sweetness this fragrance has but it does not share the DNA with the original Fantasy cupcake. This is the sweet version of Island Fantasy (I have only ever smelled the body mist of Island Fantasy) that reminds me of sour watermelon candy. Three sprays of Jungle Fantasy lasts on me all day, but it is subtle and gets weaker over time. But I personally don’t find myself the need to reaply. This is my new favorite fragrance for summer!

Of course I will end up buying and wearing this, fool that I am for Britney Spears perfumes. I have never heard one of her songs all the way through and probably wouldn't care about her music, but the Fantasy fragrances are at the worst wearable and at the best wonderful. Sounds like the danger is that Jungle Fantasy could be sharp and ozonic. Nevertheless, I can't wait. Love the green. The bottle looks wicked, like a poisonous fruit.🐯 She needs to do a purple one. (We are doing reviews even though we have not smelled it because we are Fantasy fans and get excited about new releases.)

This is a straight up hair product fragrance and I'm here for it lol. It has that specific fresh, ozonic aerosol hairspray smell that's hard to describe, along with a wet generic fruity sweetness and light florals. The watermelon is subtle, but it's there, and the waterlily is soft and cute. And I can kind of detect the cupcake note in the drydown, if I'm really looking for it lol. Overall, very clean, fresh, young, cute and playful - perfect for the hot summer days! For anyone looking for something more watermelon forward, I would recommend Sorbetto Rosso by Escada!

Jungle Fantasy is a wonderfully fresh, tropical and sweet scent. I really love it! The first thing you smell is of course the juicy watermelon and the delicious yuzu, but then, dear fragranticas, the fantastic, rare and unusual Gustavia flower sneaks in and smells heavenly! Gustavia augusta – The Heavenly Lotus Tree is native to Brazil. Its cup-shaped flowers are large, waxy and white, with colorful sepals. The fragrance, emitted at night, is intoxicatingly sweet and delicious! Not many perfumes have Gustavia flower as a note. Love, love, love it!

I blind bought it and, oh boy, it was love at first spray. This is my fourth Britney perfume and so far my favorite (i also own Curious, Circus and Midnight fantasy and I'll probably buy more). The performance is not that great, but i love it so so much regardless. While it doesn't last that long on the skin, maybe around 2 hours, sprayed on clothes it lasts for days. It's sweet, it's watery, completely inoffensive to my sensitive nose and I'll probably wear it every day this summer. Very much a frutiger aero fragrance in my opinion.

I am no Britney fan, and this is the first Fantasy perfume I've bought. I did get Curious as a gift about 15 years ago, but I did not like it. This one on the other hand... Initially, I was put off by the quite weak longevity, but as I used it more and more, it has become my current favourite parfum and I am sure I will buy it again. Very fresh, green and lovely, slightly sweet towards the end, it is overall a sublime scent. I recommend it to anyone who loves fresh, ozonic and green scents, such as L'eau par Kenzo.

Opens as a bright, fresh fruity floral with aquatic and green nuances. It has a clean, shampoo like feel with an uplifting citrus brightness that gives it an energetic touch. As it reaches the heart notes, sleek gardenia and subtle exotic florals come forward, adding a refined elegance, still keeping the scent light and youthful. Longevity is minimal on me. It softens pretty quickly, becomes more grounded, and develops a slightly lotusy feel before fading out by the drydown. Overall, very pleasant and well done.

I took it last night, I sprayed a little on the lid directly, it smelled like watermelon with soapy water, maybe it's the water lily that does it, it faded (I was expecting something different, it smells like a jungle or something like that) then it became more floral and closes slowly with a sweet cupcake note. For me, this is sick because it has this sweet smell all the time, I think it is very refreshing for summer/spring, it will be a nice summer/spring fragrance. 10/10 love it🩷

So I bought this perfume when it came out.I love the bottle.It's one of my favorite color combinations.And it's just so pretty, and it smells so beautiful.It's light perfect for hot summer days.Kind of reminds me of lip smackers, the lip gloss, it just smells so good and it takes me back to elementary school.It doesn't last very long for the price point.It's expected, but I could see this being perfect.All year round the bestI can describe this easy breezy and beautiful cover girl

Perfect for hot steamy weather when you want to smell fresh and clean like you just took a shower under a waterfall in a rainforest. Smells like cucumber and watermelon. Only complaint is it doesn’t last but for the price and the type of fragrance it is that can be expected. Love this flanker but it has absolutely no similarity to the OG fantasy imo, I definitely don’t get the cupcake note.

I already bought it. 💚 Because I'm a fan of Britney and all her fragrances. It's just another Eau De Toilette... Although it's a beautiful, fresh, very fruity fragrance, it fades quickly on the skin. It's a shame because it's so beautiful... especially because the first 30 minutes are an explosion of Watermelon and Gustavia. Drying leaves a very pleasant and sweet smell on the skin.

LOVE THIS, I got it cheap cause they were on sale but wow what an amazing smell. I put unisex even though it’s for women because while it is slightly more on the feminine side, it is a fragrance for any tropical or fruit smell lovers. Very tropical ish and fruity. But an amazing smell. I recommend it for anyone. Very exotic as well.

This is super fresh. Straight up watermelon citrus scent with florals coming through lightly. The watermelon note smells realistic and fresh and not candy like which is perfect. I dont smell the cupcake note which is fine as I prefer fresh scents but overall really good fragrance for summer or anytime to feel fresh.

At first I didn't care for it because is smelled like regular boring shampoo.now that it's settling I can smell the watermelon.it remind me of homemade watermelon water.this is what I wanted glam from kim k. To smell like.i can see this being my summer perfume. If anyone looking to buy I got mine at Amazon for $30

Beautifully fresh, clean, and watery with loads of watermelon and underlying hints of the Fantasy DNA we all know and love. I found it to be deliciously candy-like, and the least soapy of the Fantasy flankers I’ve tried so far. A great palate cleanser, and equally fab on hot summer days.
