EDT · 2007 · womens

Anna Sui built her fashion house on theatrical maximalism and bohemian glamour, and her fragrances reflect that same unrestrained sensibility. Flight of Fancy, launched in 2007, captures the designer's playful spirit in fragrance form.

The opening combines bright citrus (lemon and yuzu) with the subtle stone fruit sweetness of litchi, immediately giving the fragrance an uplifting, slightly tart character. The heart settles into classic white florals, primarily freesia and magnolia with supporting rose, creating a clean floral core without veering into heavy or overdone territory. The base grounds everything with a soft amber and musk foundation, rounded out by white woods that add a whisper of structure to what's otherwise a buoyant composition. The overall DNA reads as a fresh floral with just enough sweetness to keep it modern rather than austere.

Flight of Fancy works best for those who want a cheerful, uncomplicated floral that doesn't demand attention but rewards close wearing. It's suitable for daytime and office settings, though its lightness means it performs best in spring and summer. If you gravitate toward The Tactician, The Homesteader, and The Heirloom, this fragrance fits naturally within that sensibility.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Lemon
Lemon
Sharp, clean, and instantly familiar, the pure zest of fresh-cut lemon peel, not the sugary juice. In perfumery it reads as crisp and energising rather than sweet, and is often used to amplify other light notes. It fades quickly, so it's almost always a top note that makes a striking first impression.
Litchi
Litchi
Also known as lychee, litchi has a delicate, floral-fruity sweetness that is lighter and more transparent than most tropical fruits. It has a slightly rose-like quality that makes it at home in floral compositions, and a clean sweetness that reads as refined rather than candy-like. Common in contemporary light florals.
Yuzu
Yuzu
The Japanese citrus that smells like a more complex, aromatic lemon, tart and zesty but with a floral, almost herbal undertone. Yuzu is sharper and less sweet than most Western citruses, giving it a modern, almost cool quality. It has become a hallmark of contemporary niche perfumery.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Freesia
Freesia
Bright, clean, and slightly peppery, freesia is a springtime flower with a fresh, almost citrusy edge that prevents it from reading as purely sweet. It's one of the more versatile florals, sitting comfortably in both delicate feminine compositions and fresh unisex fragrances. Approachable and elegant simultaneously.
Magnolia
Magnolia
Creamy, lush, and faintly lemony, magnolia is a floral note with real presence, richer than peony but more accessible than jasmine. It has a velvety quality and a slight spice that stops it from being simply pretty. Used to add warmth and dimensionality to floral compositions.
Rose
Rose
The queen of floral notes and the most-used ingredient in fine perfumery. Real rose is simultaneously velvety, honeyed, and slightly spicy, nothing like the synthetic candy version. Depending on the variety used, it can anchor a composition or drift through it like a ghost, adding warmth without dominating.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
