Princess Perfume

Vera Wang Princess perfume was launched in 2006 as part of Vera Wang oriental-floral feminine fragrances collection. The fragrance is designed to bring out the sweetness and feminine delicate side of its wearer and yet portray the wearer as a modern and lively person. The perfume come in a heart-shape jewel bottle that portray the finest and elegance of the content within. Vera Wang Princess Perfume is available at all retail stores in three different sizes of 1oz, 1.7oz and 3.4oz eau de toilette spray and is selling at a price that ranges from $45 for the 1oz spray bottle to $72 for the 3.4oz spray bottle.

How does it feel like?

The Princess Perfume when applied will meet its wearer with a creamy and subtle sweetness that is skin-soft and silky-smooth to touch. The lasting power of the fragrance is average and can be worn every day, however I would suggest that the fragrance be worn during the bright and sunny day of spring and summer.

How does it smell like?

You will be engulfed by a light citrus smell from the mandarin orange that is wonderfully blended into the fruity apple note that finished off with a floral note from the water lily. This unique combination provides you with an experience that is both refreshing and youthful yet allowing you as the wearer to be cute and beautiful. If you like chocolate in your fragrance, then Princess perfume is definitely the choice. The heart of the fragrance blossom into a creamy chocolate sweetness and sprinkled with the floral scent of the Tiare flower that make the heart feel soft and elegant. The overall sweetness of the fragrance rejoice into a grand finale of vanilla with amber that make the overall experience of the fragrance sweet and fruity.
