L de Lolita Lempicka

L de Lolita Lempicka was launched in 2006 and the fragrance was created by perfumer Maurice Roucel. The bottle was designed by Sylvie de France. From the perfume ad and the aquamarine, pebble heart shaped bottle with the golden net, this perfume reminds me a lot of the deep blue ocean and mermaids. Even though I have an affinity for mermaids, I'm not too fond of aquatic scent, which is why I steer clear from this perfume for years, thinking it as another harsh clean scent.  The only reason why I got this is because of the bottle, it's been discontinued for years and I wanted to get this before it's gone. So imagine my surprise when I first tried it on. Instead of being bombarded with screechy and sharp aquatic scent, I was left with a delicious oriental vanilla scent that conjures images of Christmas baking. I immediately regret not getting a full bottle of this years before it's been discontinued, lol. Top Notes Bitter orange,   Bergamot

Anna Sui Fantasia Mermaid

Diving deep into the world of mermaids, Anna Sui Fantasia Mermaid is the 1st flanker to the 2017 released Fantasia, which features a majestic looking unicorn on top of a giant golden acorn.

Aquatic scent has never been my personal favourite, but with such whimsical, enchanting looking bottle, one cannot deny how beautiful it is, which is why I ended up with a bottle of Fantasia Mermaid without first trying them out 😂


  1. Top Notes
    • Blood Orange, Mandarin Orange
    • , Cardamom
  2. Heart Notes
      Jasmine, Peony, Watery Lychee
  3. Base Notes
      Blond wood, Vanilla, Honey, Tonka bean


  5. Anna Sui Fantasia was created by perfumer Christian Provenzano. The bottle features a beautiful mermaid with a seahorse on top of a giant golden acorn. Described as a floral fruity gourmand, it opens up with a burst of fresh, citrusy scent, and a mixture of white floral notes. Wearing this on a hot, humid day, I get whiffs of airy, clean, beachy scent, which reminds me a lot of sunshine and ocean waves. 


Even though it is a flanker to Fantasia, it bears no resemblance to it, as this smells a little more citrusy and a little less sweet. If you are familiar with the scent of Anna Sui Secret Wish, the one which features a fairy sitting atop a crystal flacon, you would probably enjoy this, as they both have a fresh, citrusy opening, though this is a little more musky than Secret Wish.

Clean, soapy, with a woody drydown, Fantasia Mermaid is perfect for aquatic scent and mermaid lovers 😉
