Review: Britney Spears Fragrance’s Newest Scent Candied Fantasy Is An Irresistible Treat

The concept

The legendary nose behind Britney Spears Fragrances — admittedly likely not Spears herself — has once again delivered us from that quiet evil known as boring perfume. Britney Spears Fragrances’ Candied Fantasy is sure to delight fans of flirty, sugary scents. Candied Fantasy is a playful and intoxicating blend of fruity and floral notes that evoke a sense of youthful indulgence.

Beyond that, Candied Fantasy truly holds its own with an outrageously iconic, instantly recognizable smell. This singular achievement is unique to the most remarkable Spears scents, which in my uniquely qualified opinion are: Curious, Fantasy original, Believe, Midnight Fantasy, Circus Fantasy, Island Fantasy, the advertised-unisex Prerogative trio, Jungle Fantasy, and others. Drop a comment if you’d like me to review my Britney Spears Fragrances favorites in a best to worst list format.

Since Britney Spears’ legendary musical catalog is often attributed to the “Bubblegum Pop” pop music sub-genre, Candied Fantasy’s scent profile is a perfect fit, thematically. It is sure to drive both casual and hardcore Britney Spears fans crazy.

The aroma

From the first spritz, Candied Fantasy bursts with a vibrant opening aroma of strawberry and orange. This juicy reveal is balanced by a touch of bubblegum and familiar Fantasy-branded pink velvet cupcake, creating a deliciously sweet and nostalgic aroma. As the fragrance settles, a floral heart of jasmine and hibiscus adds a touch of sophistication. The base notes of musk, sandalwood, and white chocolate provide a warm and comforting finish.

The verdict

Candied Fantasy is a delightful fragrance that perfectly captures the playful and feminine spirit of Britney Spears. It's a versatile scent that can be worn day or night, and it's sure to turn heads. If you're a fan of sweet and fruity perfumes, Candied Fantasy is a must-try. If you’re even remotely curious, splurge for the biggest bottle (3.3oz) and give some fresh candy a try.
