Which Should You Buy?
This Britney Spears flanker is a divisive one. Many find it light, sweet, and unique among its siblings, recalling festive orange cakes or holiday spices. However, others are turned off by its sharp, artificial citrus or overly woody, dated dry down.
Secret Imagination reworks Britney Spears Hidden Fantasy, the 2008 orange-creamsicle gourmand. The juicy citrus-and-vanilla heart comes through sweet and fun, but Perfume Parlour pushes the sugary citrus louder and thins the spiced drydown, so it wears more linear and short-lived than the already-modest original.
