Alexandria Fragrances Funtastic is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2018. Funtastic opens with Lavender and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Leather, Iris, Vanilla, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, Tonka Bean, and Cashmeran. Alexandria Fragrances's Funtastic carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Prepare for a beast; this one is an absolute powerhouse. Funtastic is a love-it-or-hate-it leather bomb, divisive for its intensity but universally praised for its incredible projection and longevity. Not for the faint of heart, it's a bold take on a familiar profile.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

This fragrance boasts nuclear projection and beastly longevity, making it largely unsuitable for office environments where subtlety is key. Its bold, warm, and sensual accords of leather and almond make it perfect for dates and evening events, while its strong presence might be overwhelming for casual wear, especially in warmer weather.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Funtastic opens with a sharp, aromatic lavender, quickly met by a prominent, creamy almond note that gives way to the star of the show: a hefty, almost raw leather. It's grounded by a rich, warm base of vanilla, amber, and woody accords, softened by powdery orris. There’s a certain clean, almost baby-wipe like nuance mentioned by some, which adds an intriguing, smooth contrast to the dominant leather.
