Fancy Forever

I reached for this yesterday after my shower for a crisp Spring day. Not cold, windows are up, but cool 70 w/no humidity. I was pleasantly surprised. I have 3 Fancy’s & I like this more than the og. I like the og, but I like this a lil bit more. Fruity flornillas women over here. I love my rich spicy cold weather fragrances, but ready to wear my fresh, sweet, fruity florals. This is a great transition scent. It liked the cool air, but also woke up as my skin warmed while working. The opening is strong fruit, I smell the apricot & blackberry first, then the litchi comes in with the florals. The litchi is more sweet than tart, done nicely. I love a sweet pea note! The vanilla is prominent but soft, smooth. The musk is clean and is warmed by the vanilla. The litchi with the musk is perfect to me. The deep dry down is very nice, clean, soft, slightly warm. Reminds me slightly of an old time shave cream. I got 2 hrs of projection, then I smelled with my movement for hours, by bedtime it was a skin scent. I didn’t reapply and still had clean musky skin this morning. This should be a good Spring-Fall for me. It won’t pull in cold, cold weather, but it likes cool temps. It is not a loud, in your face scent, more intimate. Like, when you know someone is going to be close, this is a good reach. 20/10

So I was happy to see Fancy get another flanker. I think this will be the last however. Forever Fancy is so unique in the fact that it has one major ingredient that stands out. Sweet pea. It’s used in the alcohol floral base which smells almost like. Well. An alcohol mixer! It smells no joke. Like sweet and sour liquor mix! I was a bartender for years so I know the scent and omg I got this for Christmas and was like WTF! This is sweet and sour mix! It’s. Actually pleasing? Oddly enough. But wow. It is so weird because it dries down to a starchy floral scent almost mature older and womanly. It’s very strong. One of the strongest fragrances she’s ever done. It’s not a “office” friendly scent. The florals and the sweet juicy fruits all combined to make a PUNCH of a olfactory combination! I will say the bottle is GORGEOUS. Pale see through glass almost like press paper, with diamonds along the neck of the bottle. Beautiful design and a very rich floral fruity scent. I love it personally. I rank it with Fancy Love and Fancy Girl being some of the best. I never loved Fancy. While I liked it, it wasn’t the best. The flankers have been much better!

I quite like this. It's a beautiful fragrance that will fit in perfectly with Fancy and all the other flankers. I just love the whole line-up. I think the bottle is gorgeous. I do get a tiny bit of Fantasy, but it's more mature and grown-up. It isn't cakey at all. I feel like the balance between fruity and floral is well done because one doesn't outshine the other. The opening is wonderful. It dries down more skin scent, but I can get whiffs as I move about. It doesn't disappear, but I do like to freshen up with a spray or 2 after 4-5 hours. This perfume doesn't steal the show out of all the Fancies, but it sure is a Fancy for warm weather when the original would be too heavy.

I don't know why, but I really love this fragrance! I have all but the newest Jessica Simpson perfumes (Fiend), and this one really stands out to me. The powdery sweetness back by a vanilla fruity kick just keeps me coming back to smell my wrist. When first applied it has wonderful sillage, however a respray every few hours will be helpful to keep that up. The bottle is one of my favorites in the Fancy line along with I Fancy You. I guess some people get the smell of Fantasy by Britney Spears in here but I think that is just because the vanilla and litchi. Fantasy is a much more fruity bright cupcake scent than this one. Fancy Forever makes me feel elegant and and sparkling.

Smells amazing, sweet, fruity, strong, slightly musky, then immediately in a Poof! It's gone! Nothing but a slight whisper of musk left over. It definitely doesn't perform in warm weather, or hot weather. It must be a cool fall weather fragrance. I'll try again when the weather cools down. I've already wasted a good chunk of my bottle trying to get this to perform but it just doesn't. I have to save it for a significant dip in temperature. Update: this performs in cold weather and it’s strong! Mmmm it’s sooo good! It’s 37 F fyi
