EDT · 2015 · womens

Anna Sui is known for bold, theatrical designs that blur the line between fashion and fantasy. Launched in 2015, Romantica carries that same sense of whimsy and drama into fragrance form, translating the house's gothic-romantic aesthetic into a scent.

Romantica opens with bright citrus -- Calabrian bergamot, grapefruit, and mandarin -- sharpened by pomegranate for depth. The heart is decidedly floral, layering jasmine and orange blossom with May rose, pink peony, and osmanthus for a lush, complex bouquet that leans neither too fresh nor too powdery. The base settles into warm amber and musk supported by sandalwood and white cedar, giving the florals a soft, creamy foundation that keeps the fragrance grounded rather than airy.

This is a well-composed floral for someone who wants presence without aggression. The citrus top keeps it from feeling dated or heavy, while the woody base prevents it from drifting into pure sweetness. It works well for daytime wear, especially spring and summer, though the amber warmth makes it versatile enough for cooler seasons. If you're drawn to The Romantic, The Homesteader, or The Tactician, Romantica is worth exploring.

Calabrian Bergamot
Calabrian Bergamot
Grapefruit
Grapefruit
Bittersweet and juicy with a faintly metallic zing that sets it apart from sweeter citrus notes. Grapefruit is uniquely energising, it reads as clean and modern rather than traditionally 'citrusy.' It pairs effortlessly with musks, making it a staple of office-safe, all-day fragrances.
Mandarin Orange
Mandarin Orange
Pomegranate
Pomegranate
Bright, slightly tart, and jewel-red, pomegranate in perfumery adds a vivid, clean fruitiness with a slightly astringent quality that keeps it from being simply sweet. It reads as simultaneously fresh and exotic. Often used in contemporary fragrances where its Middle Eastern associations add a modern luxuriousness.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Jasmine
Jasmine
Intoxicating, heady, and slightly animalic, jasmine is one of the few flowers that smells as rich in a bottle as it does climbing a garden wall at dusk. It has an almost fleshy, indolic quality that stops it reading as purely 'clean.' Jasmine is a workhorse in both feminine and masculine perfumery, adding depth and soul.
Lily
Lily
Grand, creamy, and slightly spicy, Oriental lily (Stargazer, Casablanca) is one of the most powerful natural flowers, with a heady, complex sweetness that fills a room. White lily is softer and more transparent. Both add drama and elegance to floral compositions, though they require careful handling to avoid becoming oppressive.
May Rose
May Rose
Orange Blossom
Orange Blossom
Sweeter and more honeyed than neroli (both come from the same tree), orange blossom is a floral note with a warm, almost edible quality. It floats between citrus and floral families, adding richness without weight. A signature note of classic Mediterranean and Middle Eastern perfumery.
Osmanthus
Osmanthus
Apricot-like, leathery, and floral all at once, osmanthus is one of the most beloved flowers in Chinese culture and one of the most interesting in Western perfumery. Its dried-fruit, suede-like quality makes it feel simultaneously sweet and sophisticated. A note that elevates almost everything it touches.
Pink Peony
Pink Peony
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.'
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
