Love Ananas Fizz! Recs for pineapple fragrances?

Hi, Tovah!
I am not the right person to reply to this, since I`m NOT a big fan of pineapple.
One I`ve tried lately is Live(Jennifer Lopez), and I thought the pineapple was very dominating. I think this one is a "fruit-cocktail"-scent... Two I like that have pineapple in them are Amuleti by Mariella Burani, and Sonia Rykiel. Also Eden(Cacharel) has a pineapplenote, so does Cool Water(Davidoff). One I have not tried is Envy Me (Gucci, 2004).

Tovah, VIP Room is supposed to have ananas among its notes - can't smell it too distinctly though...otherwise I love this soft fruity leather scent, if only it did last longer...

I have Envy Me, and I love it, but no pineapple stands out to my nose. It is certainly not similar to Ananas Fizz in any way! Sorry, I wish I could think of something, but I just tested Ananas Fizz the other day and it is so different from anything else I've smelled that claims to have pineapple as a note.

You could try Parfums de Coeur Pineapple Fantasy body spray

It is VERY cheap and long lasting though a bit sweet but very 'pineapple ice cream float'
probably not a patch on Anananas Fizz but definitely pineapple. It is sweet pineapple over vanilla and soft musk. Hope that helps.

And, if you haven't already, check out the directory here. A search of the note pineapple turns out over fifty scents.

And maybe try this new one [quoted from Sephora]:
New! Only at Sephora! Vanille Pineapple

Comptoir Sud Pacifique continues to celebrate 30 years of Vanilla Scents with Vanille Pineapple.

So fresh, so inviting, so frothy and effervescent. Dive into the warm, creamy unexpected sweetness of tangy pineapple and rich vanilla cream.

Vanille Pineapple opens with top notes of juicy island pineapple, and heart notes of vanilla cream, passion fruit, cinnamon, and frangipani flower. A base of warm vanilla sugar, luscious coconut milk, and musk polishes off this sparkling scent reminiscent of vacation days.

Notes:
Pineapple, Vanilla Cream, Passion Fruit, Cinnamon, Frangipani, Vanilla Sugar, Coconut Milk, Musk.

And a search using Sephora's fragrance finder for scents similar to Ananas Fizz yielded these two scents:

Incanto Dream

Incanto Dream was inspired by the joyful bliss created in one's imagination. This fresh sparkling fruits, fresh blossoms, sandalwood, and musk fragrance evokes the feeling of joy a women feels when she believes that her dreams will come true - pure bliss.

and (although there is no mention of pineapple notes!):

Whew! Hope some of this helps...Keep me posted.

Pacific Paradise Escada has pineapple,
Top note : Citron Vert, Ananas Victoria, Physalis, Coco
Middle note : Fleur de Banane, Sucre Candi, Barbe Ã* Papa
Base note : Muscs, Santal, Ambre, Sel Hawaiien

Live by JLo has it, too,
Top note : Sicilian Lemon, Orange, Pineapple
Middle note :Redcurrant, Peony, Violet
Base note : Caramel, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood
It smells nice, I like it more than PP, but more of a fruity punch thing. Both are more on the sweet side...

I don't know if that's what you are looking for, for Ananas Fizz is a chypre-fruity.
Top note : Pamplemousse, Rhum, Bergamote
Middle note : Ananas Victoria, Litchi, Absolu Rose, Frangipanier
Base note : Vétiver, Bois de Palmier, Vanille

There is also Sex on the Beach by Demeter Frags Library, "Vodka, unsweetened Pineapple Juice, a touch of Raspberry liquor, a hint of Melon liquor and a splash of Cranberry", but I don't know it so can't say anything. Also not sure you'd like to wear that name :P
Maybe you could layer with Vetiver...?

I only know Live, no I also tried Still, but it lost in competition against Stella.

Live has is very long-lasting. Funny thing, I don't notice it change so much. It must be the Caramel, for it comes always and always very strong on my skin.

Audrey the sweet girl :P

PS: love the Live bottle, looks like something from a boheme shop.

Well, it's not cheap, but I want to mention Caron's Acaciosa in the interest of completeness.

I think that Miami Glow is much more ananas-y than Live. It also has coconut and smells very tropical and beach like, but not in the irritating way that some fruity ones can be. It's a good scent with a good lasting power. I think this was a limited edition, but I am sure you will be able to find it in many places still, and for a good price.

But really, nothing that I smelled is similar to Anans Fizz, which is a subtle, tart pineapple, with slightly milky powdery base - reminds me of the treatment of figs in Premier Figuier, which I really like as well.

One of my absolute favorites, but I can't smell the slightest hint of pineapple in it. I had no idea it contained such a thing until now actually Still an amazing scent...

Kiehl's Coriander oil has a bunch of pineapple in it. In fact, when I put that on, pineapple is mostly what I smell in it. A little spicy, a little flowery, but mostly fruity and juicy. That's super cheap, too, like $15 for 1/4 oz or something close to that.

Here are a few more:

Comptoir Sud Pacifique - Vanille Pineapple
Yves Rocher - Pineapple EDT ($3.95, too & smells great! [smiley=grin.gif]}
Vivienne Westwood - Libertine
Davidoff Woman
Kookai Ou-Non EDT (find it at Imagionation Perfumes)
Salvatore Ferregamo - Incanto Dream

Tropique by Monyette is also very fruity in that vibe. Don't know if it contains any actual pineapple essence, but whenever I wear it, that's what I think of: pineapple & coconut.

Escada Rockin' Rio
Parfums de Coeur Pineapple Fantasy (already mentioned)

8-)

You could try Colony by Jean Patou for a 1940's Coconut Grove, Begin the Beguine take on pineapple. I think you still get a matching handkerchief in the box as well. Very glamorous.

You might try whatever the annual Escada happens to be. They often utilize pineapple. Rockin' Rio definitely contains pineapple, if you can locate it-- it's discontinued. I would try Sam's Club or some other discount retailer.

When I was on the hunt for pineapple a few months ago, I sought and bought samples of Caron's Acaciosa and Jean Patou's Colony. Both were utter duds for me. I thought the Ananas Fizz the purest of the pineapple juices, although just a little too pure, and I couldn't get past the feeling I'd spilled a drink on myself. If you enjoy AF, pop for a decant. Why spend money on anything that, at best, is second best?

Tovah,
Have you tried Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Pineapple?
It's not as tart as Ananaz Fizz, but it' lovely. Sweet of course because of the vanilla.
Than there are quite a few J Lo's that have pineapple. She must like that note too. Miami Glow and Live both have it.
But there is nothing that I am aware of that is too close to Ananas Fizz - its quite different with that powdery/musk base and the rather tart overall appearance.

Bahiana by Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier reminds me of freshly cut pineapple...

-Tero-

Femme de Montblanc is very, very pineappley, as is Presence d'une Femme to a slightly lesser degree. I would call both pineapple scents, rather than scents with pineapple in them, especially Femme. I haven't smelled Ananas Fizz, so i can't make a comparison, but the pineapple note in these two is not very pleasant to my nose. Too sweet and overpowering. But definitely worth a try if you want pineapple!

I agree that pineapple perfumes (Patou For Ever), rather than perfumes with a pineapple note (Ananas Fizz), can err on the side of sweetness and may be overpowering.

I shall have to check out Montblanc Femme now, especially with Patou For Ever being discontinued. I find that the almost candied pineapple perfume can be tempered by layering with a dry, mossy amber chypre like Mitsouko or Choc; shown to perfection in the sublime Patou Colony.
