The Essence Vault Fantasy - 851 is an Eau de Parfum. Fantasy - 851 opens with Kiwi and Litchi, settles into a heart of White Chocolate, Jasmine, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Musk and Vanilla. The Essence Vault's Fantasy - 851 carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

No. 851 nails the kiwi-white chocolate-musk shape that defines Britney Spears' Fantasy, but comes across sweeter and simpler, with less of the original's cupcake-gourmand nuance and shorter overall staying power.

About

No. 851 follows the fruity-gourmand template that made Fantasy by Britney Spears a cult favourite, opening with juicy kiwi and lychee before moving into a white chocolate, jasmine and orchid heart, finishing on a soft musk-vanilla base. It captures the youthful, playful sweetness well, but the interpretation is more one-note than the original's layered cupcake-and-fruit gourmand character, and it fades faster on skin. It still delivers the fun, flirty vibe the name promises, just with less complexity and shorter wear time than the genuine Fantasy. A good option for those who want the playful sweet-fruity mood for daytime wear without worrying too much about longevity.
