About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Purple Fantasy is a 2001 Guerlain release that opens with an unexpected trio: creamy coconut, crisp green tea, and bright bergamot. This unconventional top accord quickly gives way to a heart of ripe apricot and jasmine, lending a soft, fruity-floral character. The base rests on sandalwood and cedar, providing a dry, woody foundation that lingers. The fragrance is classified as a Floral Green, but its dominant accords are woody, citrus, and powdery, with noticeable coconut and white floral nuances. Collectors who appreciate the transition from refreshing to warm will find this composition intriguing.
This scent suits women who enjoy green florals with a gourmand twist, particularly in spring or daytime wear. It is less sweet than typical fruity fragrances, making it a sophisticated choice for those who prefer subtlety. As a discontinued Guerlain, Purple Fantasy has become a sought-after piece for collectors of early 2000s niche and designer perfumery. Its unique blend of coconut and green tea sets it apart from more conventional florals, offering a nostalgic yet modern appeal.
中文簡介
Purple Fantasy 係 Guerlain 2001 年推出嘅女香,屬花香綠調。前調以椰子、綠茶同佛手柑開場,清新中帶點奶滑;中調係杏桃同茉莉,散發柔和果香;基調用檀香同雪松,木質感乾爽持久。整體以木質、柑橘同粉質為主,椰子同白花香氣突出。呢支香水適合鍾意綠調花香但又想有少少甜味嘅女士,春天或日間用最啱。因為已經停產,對收藏早期 Guerlain 或 2000 年代香水嘅人嚟講,係一件值得留意嘅作品。
