Summary
Summary
Queening is a powdery, creamy fragrance where clean cotton and orris are wrapped in vanilla, coconut and fluffy musk. Apple and cypress give the opening a fresh contrast to the soft cotton accord, keeping the first impression from feeling too sweet. Orris makes the center dry and powdery while rum and saffron add warmth and a slightly richer texture. Whipped vanilla bean and coconut make the drydown creamy and sweet, with fluffy musk keeping the finish soft and cocooning.
