hi guys welcome to MinnieMollyReviews so today i am reviewing 'island fantasy' so
'island fantasy' is the brand new fragrance by Britney Spears that came
out this year in 2013
so it's her 11th fragrance but if you count 'fantasy twist' then it's twelfth
it's another 'fantasy'
so it's her 5th 'fantasy' which is pretty cool i've been
wondering how long it's going to take her to do another one
because i
think that this one is so different to the rest though
'cause i mean if you look at the rest they're all just bold colours
but this one
this one's not, it's
almost clear and it had like
this whole gradient going
with green to blue
and i think that's really cool and if you look at her advertisement i printed it out
just... i couldn't find it anywhere else
and if you just
look...
on the advertisement i think it makes it look like that's the sea
so it's the whole beach-theme and everything so it makes it look
if you look at the background the sea's going from green to blue and it's put
the bottle on it like this
so i do have some
picky
things with the advertisement
because if you have a look at this picture
and then you look at these
she has done the same advertisement for
'fantasy twist' for 'cosmic radiance'
and then for 'island fantasy'
but on this one they've photoshopped it to make it
the dress look like a bikini
and you can obviously tell it's that dress
if you look
ooh shiny
that's probably not the best one to use
look
you can see the frilliness
of the dress
and then if you look at the bikini it's
it's the frilliness on the bikini
but i don't want you to think i'm complaining because it's really a good picture
and i love the picture anyway
and to be honest it would look really nice as a bikini
but i just think 'cause you know
it's her fragrances and her fragrances are really big i would have thought maybe
she would have done a new advertisement for it but you know?
doesn't matter
i mean it's just like
she's got this really good bikini shape
right now
and i thought maybe she would of done
some with that but i guess not, but doesn't matter, so
if you have a look...
this is the new box design which is cool
a lot of her
boxes have this whole design going on with the whole
like different plants on it and things
and it definitely
i'm trying to find a good
one... right it definitely you can
see the
pattern in
'midnight' and
'island fantasy' the whole
plant like...
yeah... with the whole plant theme of it
i think it's cool and i like it and on that one obviously it's about midnight
and it's darker
and blue-y-er and things and this one has gone for more of a green
turquoise-y colour
i like it though and it's got
like these little spots like the jewels from the
bottle but i do like this box i think it's a really nice one
just cause it's...you know
a lot different from the other ones cause
they're all like metallic and things like that and this one's just
a plain colour
if you get what i mean i'm getting really annoyed though cause i can't really
see... if you open the box you can see she's put.. oh come on
she's put an advertisement for 'Britney Spears Fragrances' on Facebook
on the opening lid of the
the thing... of
the box which
is really different for britney fragrances because
she doesn't normally advertise FaceBook she's advertised FaceBook on her too look
so i think that's different like everyone now
everywhere you look for advertisements there's always that little bit at the bottom
that says 'go to our Facebook page' like FaceBook
has taken over
fragrances, i don't know if i really like it being there but i think it's a good marketing
idea 'cause obviously you don't just
keep it in the box do you? you open it and it's like oh
you know
so it's good advertising, so i haven't really gone into that much detail about
the bottle yet so this
is actually 50ml and if you look here
all the rest of them that i've got
every single Britney one i have are all 100ml except 'radiance' cause
'radiance' bottles are really big anyway
but there's not really
it's not that small compared to the other ones
but i am going to get 100ml
it's just because i wanted it as fast as possible
so i just had to order the 50ml but
i'm going to get 100ml hopefully
so then i'll be able to have it matched up with my other ones
actually if you guys watch my videos
you'll see i've got like these
units where i put all my fragrances
and i have no idea where i'm going to put this one cause my Britney shelf is full
it's like full to the brim ive got like three 'radiances' and
everything else
and so then it's all like
piled up into one little box
it needs sorting out really
this one i just
i really love this one i just reminds me of going on holiday so much
it really does
not like some fragrances reminds me of holiday because it smells like
i don't know, it smells like sun-cream or something like that but this doesn't it just has a whole
holiday theme to it
and if you live in like a
country where it's warm all the time and that is
my holiday
my holiday and
that smells just like home for you guys i guess but this one
just smells... oh i've got lipstick on it
love it that much!
but as soon as... i have to say straight away when i first smelt this
i smelt oranges
uh i love it
so i do have a few notes that
about the fragrance because i have to remind myself what they're called this
is an eau de toilette...
i'll just show you
eau de toilette
see i take french and that is just not good
and
her other ones are
eau de parfums
i don't know how to say that so
this 'island fantasy' actually has a lower concentration than the rest of her fragrances
which to be honest i do understand because this one is so
like so holiday and so soft and
i think it does need a lower concentration sorry i'm coming down with a cold
so the scent is just so citrusy it's so
it's so light it's so..
i don't know how else to explain it it's so gorgeous
i've lost the little... oh it's down there
it's just such a light
cloud scent if you get what i mean, it's just so
it's
it's one of them ones you'd wear on a really nice sunny day
and
you're just going out to the park or something
or somewhere
and
and it's just one of them ones where it's just like
uh... like it's summer and it's
spring and it's
sunny and
you know? just one of them ones
the top notes for island fantasy are:
citruses like limes and lemons
clementine
mandarin oranges, like i said it really smells like oranges
watermelon and red berries and if you Britney
fans out there look at the notes of all of her perfumes
you will know she used
red berries in 'radiance' as well
so then it does
tie in with her other fragrances which is really nice i like it when they
do that when they've got like
differences but then similar
i like it when it does that
so her middle notes are freesia
violet and jasmine, so the violet and jasmine just makes it a lot... not the violet and jasmine
i mean freesia and jasmine just make it that
whole softer smell
but it does give it that floral effect to it
and it just reminds you of going to the park and
maybe having an orange
and to go on the base notes are sugar cane and musk, and sugar cane just
ties in with the whole
of the whole other notes in it and i think it really does make it so sugary and so
it's like... i don't know
it's like putting
sugar on an orange
you know it's just... mmm
i love it so much it's such a nice fragrance and it's just awesome and i love all Britney
fragrances and so it just really makes it
so different from the rest of them but so
the same i don't know how to explain it but it's just an awesome fragrance
so i have worked my magic once again and
this is one of the highest one's i've done
since having my board so
i gave the box a 9 'cause i really like the box and i think it's quite
bright and summery and so holiday-ish
and i also gave the bottle a 9 because i love the bottle and i think it's so
different to the rest of hers
and i really love the whole gradient that goes
from green to blue
and then i gave the scent a 9
so i...
i really love this fragrance i think it's so summery and so springy and so
everything else in this fragrance and it's actually my highest
rated
'fantasy' i think
yeah cause then.. yeah
it's my highest rated 'fantasy'
because the only Britney fragrance that i rated higher was 'radiance' which is
like one of my favourites from
her collection
so...
i really love this fragrance and i gave it 3 9's
for the box, bottle and scent and i really do love it so
to round it off this is just like a
like a soft
like..
light.. citrusy.. fragrance-y
oh i just breathed it in
it tastes like oranges
anyway it's like
so
spring/summery like this whole
thing
it's just one of my it's my favourite 'fantasy' and i absolutely love it
and i'm so glad she's brought a new one out cause i've been waiting for a long time
i absolutely love this fragrance and i hope you do
