Princess
by Vera Wang
Vera Wang's Princess is a soft, sweet gourmand fragrance defined by its creamy vanilla and chocolate core, intertwined with fresh fruit notes like apricot, guava, and apple, and delicate white florals such as water lily and tiare flower. On the skin, it unfolds with an airy, watery freshness that quickly evolves into a well-blended, warm sweetness, offering an innocent and youthful character. The scent is light and intimate, projecting modestly with moderate sillage, making it suitable for daytime use without overpowering. While the long-haul performance is modest—most users report it lasting for about 4 to 6 hours—the fragrance is well-balanced, often noted as elegant rather than juvenile, and carries a comforting, slightly powdery warmth in the dry down from amber and woodsy notes.
