A sweet angel
... dreams of summer:
Vanilla ice cream on the beach,
Salt on creamed skin,
white flowers in her hair.

I smell delicious creamy vanilla ice cream instead of dry dusty meringues, which I really like. But I give them a wide berth, because otherwise there aren't even any crumbs left.
Due to the nature of the creamy note, I think musk is still involved here. And the combination of salt gives me the scent after bathing in salt water and gently rubbing on sun cream again. It is this small residue of salt that remains on the skin, so it doesn't really have an aquatic character for me.
The fragrance is very floral, I just don't recognize individual flowers, definitely the white flowers fit here, which exude a pleasant sweetness.
In summary, the fragrance is a floral, creamy gourmand for me, in whose delicate cloud I like to wrap myself.
The cloud of fragrance is already very perceptible and surrounds me for most of the day.

The shape of the bottle and the name of the fragrance don't really match the contents or the scent. A goddess in a golden corset is more like a diva, who for me should have a strong presence, which the fragrance does not have.
It is a sweet angel, sensual and sexy, but in a delicate and innocent way. I would wear the bottle in a delicate white bikini or in white lingerie with delicate lace. However, the bikini would suit my beach association better.

I love wearing this fragrance because it simply makes me glow even in dull weather, even though I'm neither an angel nor a diva.

Wonderful surprise
I was so happy to have won that I had to test it yesterday as soon as I opened the letter. Unfortunately I was a little disappointed, somehow the saffron was too present for me yesterday.

Sprayed on perfume-neutral skin this morning, it really surprised me. It starts off so beautifully floral and fruity, a successful symbiosis of magnolia and osmanthus with a pleasant saffron spice.

I would describe the heart of the fragrance as fruity and woody, with the flowers taking a back seat. I don't really perceive patchouli and oud individually, but something darkly woody.

The base is as creamy and soft as silky skin, and the aromatic sweetness of the vanilla is very perceptible. Only at this point can I associate it with the name.
It is difficult to deny a certain synthetic quality in the base, but I do not find it disturbing or unpleasant here.

The name of the fragrance is a bit pretentious. Firstly, queen fragrances are reserved for the evening, but with a small dosage it can also be worn during the day, and secondly, I could also imagine it on a man.



Many thanks to Parfumo and Creed for the testing opportunity, I will treasure the sample.

White leather crown
A princess with a white leather crown. It sits proudly on her head. At least she won't break a finger, because the leather is pleasantly soft and elegant.
It's not a princess in a flowery dress with lace. Rather with enchanting flowers in the form of roses tattooed on her skin. The roses are not particularly strongly drawn, but intertwined with the delicate powdery iris.
If you're wondering, why isn't this a queen? True queens are reserved for the evening. Princesses can be found doing whatever they like during the day to keep busy, even if it's just meeting up with friends.

This is not a fragrance for young girls. I see it on women who go through life with confidence. For me, the fragrance is leathery-floral with the fine sweetness of vanilla, patchouli gives the whole thing a grounding.
I would like to thank @Setterliebe for the generous sample. The fragrance is something very special that turns you into a proud princess with a crown of white leather.
