About this deal

The pink pepper, praline and cedar well last on my skin, I could smell it after shower the next day sometimes. I can really smell the sea salt and the jasmine - just a huge childhood memory of Leigh on Sea and picking up rocks and some shells - smelling them and then committing this scent to memory! The drydown wasn't as bad, but I still was afraid that the scent might irritate others around me, because the sillage is strong. The airy-watery element emerged slowly, and by the time I'd been wearing Mermaid for two hours (it has excellent staying power for a fruity floral! I usually don't like the smell of synthetic/tropical fruit but this one is alright; fresh and mouthwatering.

EDIT: I have Fantasia Mermaid on my left arm and Fleur Narcotique Extrait on my right and they are literally 90% the same.The heart is fascinating with hints from floral notes, raspberry and praline, while the base is charming with hints from Himalayan cedar and cypress. FANTASIA MERMAID is a gorgeous, whimsical, girly fragrance that opens with an effervescent burst of sweet, happy, fruity, pink soapy, bubblegum top notes that remind very much of VICTORIA'S SECRET BOMBSHELL. Then it started morphing, very gradually, into a scent that I can only describe as "aquatic fruit cocktail. You’ll also enjoy this if you like nostalgic scents, like the smell of pencil shavings or crayons (in this case, it really gives me that crayon vibe lol).

The bottle is so cute and I was looking forward to use it often, but alas- this fragrance is not for me.it had turned partially sand-y and driftwood-y, with a peppery note and perhaps some very muted ambergris. I bought a set of 4 Anna Sui minis - I love them all and they're the best visual addition to my perfume shelf by far. Now, the note pyramid seems really typical for an Anna Sui fragrance, but the bottle is gorgeous, or gorgeously over the top.
