Sparkly and Flirty
Fancy Love reminds me of those delicious body sprays from Victoria Secret that I used to have in abundance. Yummy peach and creamy floral notes are lovely in this scent and toped up nicely with a sparkling champagne note. There is something flirty and sensual about this combination, which makes it a great companion for a romantic evening with the candles and sensual white lace lingerie. I would not call this scent complex or dramatic but it smells very pleasant. People around me seem to like it and I always get compliments when I wear it.

I find the scent to be linear and after the effervescent and bubbly champagne note opening, Fancy Love settles into a creamy, delectable scent with very soft floral trail and peachy notes. When I look at the floral notes, I would expect this to be a powerhouse bouquet, but it is really not. I cannot even distinguish individual floral notes - it is more like a sheer floral mist. The scent stays very close to the skin but it does last for 8 hours.

I recommend Fancy Love if you are into soft floral fruity gourmand scents. It is pleasant and definitely a crowd-pleaser. I think Fancy Love delivers good value for the price.

Feeling peachy?
I love the smell of peaches but I find that in many fragrances they turn out to be overly sweet or too watery. The peach note in Burberry is done just right. It is delicious but not sickly sweet. It is delicate but not too light. Burberry is pretty, cozy but also classy. It is great for those days when I would like to smell nice but I do not want to make a strong statement.

I love the opening of this scent and I actually think that I smell very nice green apple note along with the peach. The woody notes come through right away and to my nose the scent stays linear with a lovely woody-peach-vanilla combo. I can see that many reviewers compare this scent to Fancy Love by Jessica Simpson and I agree that two of them have similarities. I find that Burberry a bit more on a woody side and Fancy Love is more on a gourmand side.

Overall score is 7.5/10. I do like this scent. Somehow it makes me feel happy and pretty and…oh so peachy.

The sillage is medium and longevity is 5 hours on my skin. I definitely recommend it if you are looking for vanilla and peach fragrances.
