Fancy Love by Jessica Simpson has always been my signature perfume. It was first released back in 2009, the 2nd perfume after the original Fancy. The 1st time I came across this perfume was from a scent strip in Glamour magazine, I gave a quick rub on my wrist and got hooked immediately. It smells really heavenly.
I decided I really need this in my perfume collection, and thankfully I managed to get this from a perfume store. It was also the last bottle, so I was super lucky to get it before it ran out since I wasn't able to find it from other shopping malls.
That was of course a long long time ago, lol. Fancy Love is one of those perfume that is super hard to find, since Metrojaya and Parkson does not sell any Jessica Simpson's perfumes, which is under Parlux Fragrances. The perfume store that I first bought it doesn't re-stock Jessica Simpson's perfumes either, so the only other solution is of course to get it online.
I am quite wary of buying perfumes online as there seems to be quite a lot of fake perfumes being sold online. So I did a bit of research first before deciding to purchase from Teratak Wangi. An online E-store that sells original perfumes at lower prices, they also have their own walk in store.
So glad I decided to purchase from them as my perfume arrived in a timely manner and was wrapped perfectly. I bought this for RM162.18 including shipping which is less than the price I bought 5 years ago, lol. If you're thinking of purchasing some perfumes, do check out their Web Store or FB, they have quite a long list of perfumes : )
Fancy Love By Jessica Simpson
Top Notes : Bergamot, Peach Blossom, Goji Leaves, Pink Champagne
Middle Notes : Lotus, Peony, Plumeria, Jasmine and Turkish Rose
Base Notes : Creamy Amber, Blond Wood, Musk and Patchouli
The first scent that hit me is the sharp fizzy scent of pink champagne.It was definitely quite strong and I was quite worried for a while, as I'm not a fan of overtly citrusy/clean scent. Thankfully the sharp scent toned down after a few minutes, then it was the combination scent of champagne, bergamot and peaches, with playful hints of floral notes which blends well together, creating a feminine vibe. The best part is of course the dry down, the milky scent of peaches and cream smells really warm and comforting, I kept sniffing my wrist all day long.
A very long lasting perfume, as I only need to spritz twice and it'll last all day long. It also leaves a lovely trail, people would know you'd been in a room even after leaving it 5 minutes ago. This is also a crowd pleaser, as people kept asking what perfume I wear. People actually noticed this perfume which never happens with my other perfume. Hmmmm
The bottle does look quite vintage. It has a feminine, romantic vibe to it and the whole white bottle does reminds me of weddings, which makes it perfect for brides to be too.
Since there had been some talks about the similarities between Fancy Love and Taylor by Taylor Swift. I decided to spritz on Taylor at Sephora. It was fruity floral at first spray, which smells nothing like Fancy Love. But the dry down does bear some resemblance in the form of warm comforting peaches and cream scent. Taylor is a bit more fresh, citrusy and less muskier than Fancy Love.
Burberry Women is another perfume that Fancy Love shares some similarities with. A bit more sharper and a very 90s scent, which I love. I'll probably get that after I finished my bottle of Fancy Love : )
