Anna Sui Fantasia Mermaid

The House of Anna Sui, renowned for its whimsical, romantic, and often fairytale-inspired aesthetic, extended its enchanting Fantasia collection in 2019 with the introduction of Fantasia Mermaid EDT. This fragrance, conceptualized by master perfumer Christian Provenzano, seeks to capture the allure and mystery of an underwater realm, translated into an accessible and playful scent profile.
Fantasia Mermaid arrives in a bottle that perfectly embodies its namesake, featuring a mermaid perched atop a fluted glass design, evoking images of mythical creatures and hidden treasures. This visual storytelling is a hallmark of Anna Sui's approach, promising an olfactory journey that is as imaginative as it is delightful.
Designed for women, this Eau de Toilette positions itself as a vibrant, fresh, and slightly sweet offering, ideal for warmer climates and casual wear. It aims to transport the wearer to a sun-drenched coastal fantasy, blending citrus brightness with delicate florals and a comforting woody-honeyed base.
