Secret Imagination For Women

Perfume Parlour Secret Imagination For Women is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008. Secret Imagination For Women opens with Orange, Tangerine, Grapefruit, and Lemon Verbena, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Cake, Lily, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Amber, Vanilla, and Woody. Perfume Parlour's Secret Imagination For Women carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

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.

About

Britney Spears Hidden Fantasy was famously described as an orange creamsicle in a bottle - bright citrus melting into a sweet, creamy vanilla with a whisper of clove on the drydown. Secret Imagination keeps that cheerful, edible signature. It opens juicy and bright with orange, tangerine and a flicker of tart grapefruit, then sweetens through a cake-and-jasmine heart sprinkled with clove. The base lands on creamy Mexican vanilla, amber and soft woods. Perfume Parlour leans into the candied citrus up top and lets the more sophisticated floral-spice nuances fade quickly, so the composition reads simpler and a touch flatter than the original, and the longevity - never a strong point for Hidden Fantasy - stays close to the skin after a couple of hours. Still, it is a fun, playful sweet citrus-gourmand made for warm casual days and easy daytime wear.
