From the brand - "With each spray, you're transported on an olfactory journey of harmonious notes that dance delicately upon your skin. The first inhale whisks you away on a burst of vibrant spicy notes, instantly uplifting your spirits and awakening your senses. As the fragrance evolves, the harmonious blend of banana bread and caramel emerge, enveloping you in an aura of elegance and femininity. These carefully selected notes are expertly balanced to create an intoxicating symphony of scents that captures the essence of your radiant spirit."
Fragrantica - "I love this banana bread erm sorry I mean perfume. Edible feel and addictive but avoid if you don't like gourmand scents. "
Fragrantica - "The banana revealed itself right from the start-ripe, warm, and decadent. The composition unfolded like a loaf of freshly baked banana bread, laced with rum essence, caramelized fruit, and a dusting of nutmeg and cinnamon. Nanatopia is undeniably gourmand, yet it avoids becoming cloying. Its sweetness feels textured and dimensional rather than flat, offering a sense of indulgence without excess. It is a fragrance that intoxicates the senses, wrapping the wearer in warmth and richness, but it never overwhelms."
Fragrantica - "This is so unique! I didn’t know it had a banana note and had I known, I wouldn’t even have bothered to sample it. But I’m so glad I did! It’s sweet and spicy, so delicious. The bread note is very realistic and meshes so well with the nutmeg and caramel. It’s like a warm nutty banana bread straight out of the oven."
Fragrantica - "such a unique and evocative gourmand... really nutty and almost moist smelling (in a good way)"
Fragrantica - "Delicious fruity, sweet and boozy scent. A banana bread with a good dose of cinnamon and even a hint of sweet apple. Could border into diabetically sweet category as it has very little balancing agents at the base, but you know what, I still love it. Lasts forever as well, especially on clothes. It's been 4 days and I still smell it on my jacket. Great projection as well. Delicious but not for everyone."
