FANTASY original box

[Zpark]

Hi guys,

I would like to know if anyone in here has the original fantasy box that are willing to sell.

I would really like to add it to my fragrance collection.

Thank you.

What’s different about it and later boxes?

See the way it fold out in the picture?

The newer boxes don’t do that.

I was lucky enough to find an original Fantasy last year on eBay. The box had been opened but was in perfect condition though it had no ribbon. I made my own instead.

Ah I see now. Never realised that. The newer boxes still have the same pattern though.

didn’t they change the formula/bottle design a few years later too?

Yeah, they watered down the formula in 2010 and got rid of the green jewels around the nozzle.

Guys I love Britneys perfumes and Ive worn quite a few in the past few years like fantasy anniversary edition, midnight fantasy, circus fantasy, curious, Island fantasy and private show. Where I live I dont find all of them easily in shopping malls. Its way easier to find fantasy, midnight, the remixes ones, hidden and a few others than most of them. Id like to know ur opinions about which ones do u think are the best. Ive always wanted hidden fantasy, believe and radiance tho

The smell also is different from the fantasy that is selling now.

I haven’t tried most of the fantasy(s) aside from island fantasy, rocker femme and hidden fantasy. I like island (I like that it’s juicy in a fresh way) and hidden. 
 

if you like orange, you would like hidden. It’s like a creamy orange with hints of spice and florals. 
 

I have believe too, I used to have the original one (metal top) and it’s definitely heavier with more patchouli and sweeter. I recently got the reformulated (no metal top) and it’s fresher, less sweet, some could say that it means they diluted it but I actually prefer it because the original one smelled like I had sticky sap on my skin because my skin just makes sweeter notes sweeter. 
 

I haven’t tried midnight but very interested in picking up a bottle. I’m a guy so it’s so hard to buy a Britney perfume that I could easily pull off without smelling like a dessert.

I loved reading all your comments about the perfumes! I've only smelled Fantasy a few times and that's it, I don't know any of them. I live in Argentina and they don't sell them here. I think I saw the first ones in a store here once, but that didn't last long, and they were so expensive for me to buy... It's sad, I know.
However, I'm fascinated by her huge collection... First of all, I LOVE all the bottles! And the names and the designs. I don't know why but these things fascinate me (I mean, creating "a vibe" out of nothing basically). That's why I appreciate your comments, so I have an overall idea of what these fragrances smell like and which ones people like best.
Having said all that... Weirdly enough I DO have the box in the picture! With the bottle with the green "jewels", but it doesn't have the cap. The thing is, one of my sister's friends back then used to buy lots of fragrances and Fantasy was one of them, and my niece used to collect fragrance bottles, so this woman gave my niece many used/empty bottles, including this one. There's no ribbon, though?

Yeah I remember seeing threads about that. Is an original bottle rare nowadays?

I agree, her perfumes are pretty amazing, although i do enjoy the perfumes that were release from 2005-2007 more because they were so creative in terms of design and packaging, the storyline, the commercial, the advert, the website, they were so worth the money. From 2008 onwards all of her perfumes seem like a lazy cash-grab.

However, I've been collecting all of her perfume and now I have them all except for this original Fantasy box, sadly

I believe so because I’ve never been able to locate one. 

I wish I had stocked up back when the gettin’ was good. The current formula smells very different than the vintage.

Yeah, that’s a tough find right there.

I do agree though, those were the most beautiful boxes ever! 🎁

How much would you be willing to pay?

Just curious!

The scent of the vintage was RICH!
Everything was on point!

I have the original box, it is a little damaged and in my old house but I think I remember that I still have it.

You should try to fix it, but way to go on keeping it. Good job!
