Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Secret Fantasy
This budget-friendly fruity bomb from Avon is pure pick-me-up for the young-at-heart. Expect a sweet, playful spritz that might not outlast your morning coffee but guarantees smiles and a healthy dose of nostalgia. It's a sweet, energetic scent, though some find it a touch too juvenile or synthetic.
Statement
Our Verdict - Fiesta Carioca
This Escada is a divisive one - some find it a delightful tropical escape, while others are disappointed by its artificial sweetness and lack of longevity. Expect a fun, fruity explosion that's not for everyone, and it won't linger long.

Season and Occasion Fit

Secret Fantasy

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its generally weak longevity and sillage, combined with its sweet and playful character, make it a perfect fit for casual, everyday wear or even a sporty outing. It's less suited for formal events or professional office settings where subtlety and gravitas are often preferred.

Fiesta Carioca

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its sweet, fruity, and tropical nature, combined with generally poor longevity, makes it ideal for casual wear or sport. It's too youthful and sweet for formal settings, and its strong initial projection might be too much for the office.
