Secret Wish

by Michel Almairac

Anna Sui Secret Wish is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005, created by Michel Almairac. The fragrance opens with Peach, Marigold, Melon, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Blackcurrant, Pineapple, and Floral, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Musk, Cedar, and Amber.

Our verdict on Secret Wish: Statement

A truly divisive scent, Secret Wish is either your fresh, fruity summer daydream or a synthetic lemon cleaner that vanishes without a trace. The bottle might steal your heart, but the juice is a brief, if sometimes brilliant, affair.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, light profile and general lack of strong sillage make it suitable for casual wear or gym, where it's invigorating but not intrusive. However, its poor longevity and casual fruitiness limit its appropriateness for formal settings or dates where a more lasting impression is usually desired.

About

Imagine slicing into a juicy peach and melon next to a zesty lemon, that's your opening act. This bursts with fruity and citrus energy, softened by blackcurrant and tropical pineapple that keep it from being too sharp. Over time, it settles into a whisper of creamy sandalwood, musk, and amber, retaining a clean, airy freshness with a subtle woody undertone. It's like a fleeting summer breeze, light and refreshing.
