Description
Pop star Katy Perry launches her third fragrance and the first one done in cooperation with Coty. The scent is called Killer Queen by the song written by Freddie Mercury, and apparently it is totally different from its two predecessors.
“Killer Queen has been in my vocabulary since I was 15, because of the song ‘Killer Queen’ by Queen,” said Perry to wwd. “Freddie Mercury painted the lyrics of this woman who I wanted to be. She seemed very powerful, and she captivated a room when she walked in. I named my company Killer Queen after those lyrics. I feel like, after all this time, it was appropriate to use that name in association with something I did. I feel like I’m falling, finally, into that woman Freddie painted.”
Announced as a playful, sophisticated, powerful, edgy and delicious fragrance, it reflects the rebellious spirit of the singer. Its creation is signed by Laurent Le Guernec of IFF. Top notes include wild berries, dark plum and bergamot accords. The main note of the heart is velvety red flower (Celosia), but there are also Sambac jasmine and rainbow plumeria. The base contains cashmere, patchouli and liquid praline.
The bottle is shaped like a red ruby and comes in its own golden pedestal. The fragrance is available as 15, 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum with body lotion and shower gel.
Killer Queen was launched in 2013.

bio_222 – :
In 2013 I wore my first 50ml bottle of Killer Queen non stop every day until it was empty. I was living in the country with no perfume shops except the local chemist who did stock this, but at an exorbitant price. I drove 2 and a half hours to the city to stock up because I got a bit panicky about not having it. So I stocked up with 3 x 100ml bottles and gift pack of a baby 30ml plus bath gel and moisturizer and figured I had it covered and could now relax.
Its the praline in it that I absolutely adore and its a dupe for Flowerbomb on me. But at that stage I didn’t know because I didn’t have Flowerbomb yet. So I genuinely love this fragrance PLUS its a dupe for this other major perfume love for me, but way more affordable. It doesn’t have the same longevity but I don’t mind reapplying.
I still enjoy it very much and I adore the bottle. A beautiful ruby jewel with a gold crown. Its fun and beautiful.

I found a tiny rollerball and the matching lotion & shower gel in my “unwanted” box that’s been under my bed. Was excited to try it again with my new found obsession with fragrances. I couldn’t remember why exactly I put this in that box. As soon as I sniffed it I got a super heavy spicy (patchouli?) scent. I don’t like patchouli at all nor do I like spicy scents. Dabbed it on my wrists and I honestly think if it didn’t have the patchouli it probably would be decent. Almost smells manly due to that. Definitely willing to trade the 3 killer queen items that I have or they’re going back in the box.
RokcenMen – :
It smells like Flowerbomb on my skin, but with less longevity and sillage. It also smells a little bit darker, I like it.

The bottle:
The bottle is beautiful! Love how it looks like jewel matches with the theme the name of the perfume. It’s a nice color gives us something different to look forward to then from her previous perfumes. Great bottle to have in a collection.
Inside the bottle:
Dark, Sweet & Sexy. Thats what this perfume is. When sprayed you get praline, fruits and patchouli. When dried you smell the plum,cashmeran and the florals. If your wondering about how strong is the patchouli is it’s not that strong as you might think. You can tell it’s there but all the other notes make it light and doesn’t have that earthy smell it just gives the perfume a darker smell and shows off the sweetness of the perfume.Longevity very long can last pretty much the whole day!
Overall:
This perfume is perfect for someone who loves a sweet,dark,gourmand scents.
If you like Black Opium from YSL you might like this one too! I find this one as the lighter daytime version of Black Opium.
yurii19 – :
Killer Queen is a mess. I get she was going for a more mature scent, but this stuff smells like an old lady poppin’ pralines at a patchouli convention.
Kuflykalja – :
I dislike this fragrance, Imagine mixing the delicious perfume Wonderstruck Enchanted by Taylor (red bottle) and add a couple drops of LVEB, now add a small drop of patchouli but wait you’ve added a whole bottle! I have already accepted the fact that I hate patchouli in any fragrance it just comes out in my skin and roars and pushes any note aside! It ruined this for me.
IRALIG – :
I’m surprised by how much I love this one. The bottle itself is gorgeous, really well done. I don’t know if I really smell all the notes listed but they work really well together. It smells a lot more expensive than it is in my opinion. I think I bought a 3.4oz for like $20 or so on amazon. Definitely worth the price. More floral than I thought it would be but still very nice. I’d rate it an 8/10.
RaZik – :
Let’s start with the bottle. Gorgeous. Probably Katy’s best after Spring Reign (I love pink, what can I say?). It’s classy, expensive looking and just really pretty. Now, for the scent. Not a favourite of mine, I’ll say that. It’s great, don’t get me wrong. The initial hit is alcoholic, but once it dries on the skin, it’s chocolate and berries, but incredibly powdery. Honestly, how powdery it is makes this fragrance a little worse than it could be. Save the powder for a better time. This fragrance isn’t really anything new or special, but it’s definitelt pretty. The Sillage is not horrible and the longevity is pretty good, but not groundbreaking. Overall, I’d give it a good 6/10. But it if you’re into it.
zqw – :
To me this smells disgusting and cheap. All I smell are dirty berries/some sort of cough syrup cheap stripper perfume
denis971 – :
Overall, this one’s a winner. I blind-bought it in a set with Royal Revolution (which I’ve also reviewed) for about $9 for the two 1 oz bottles. It’s definitely worth it if you’re into praline/patchouli or looking for a good date night or winter scent. Plus, the bottles are super-pretty 🙂
The top notes are kind of meh for me, since the musk/cashmere/incense scent is present from the beginning. Those notes are always at least in the background of the scent, so that much is somewhat linear. There is a bit of dark berry/fruit scent at first, but it’s mature and seductive, not sweet and sugary.
After around 10 minutes, the praline notes take center stage for the next 2/3 hours, before fading into a sweet/smoky/spicy incense scent (it reminds me of the incense that my husband burns). If I didn’t know I was smelling praline, I’d never have described that note correctly. But it is indeed the praline, with a nice burnt-sugar with a hint of creamy scent.
This one LASTS! It’s been over 13 hours since I sprayed it on the back of my hand. It’s a skin scent now, but there’s still a distinct scent of patchouli/incense.

“Own the Throne”
Sounds very promising for a “bold fragrance seeker” like me.
I told my ex boyfriend about this perfume, and VOILA!! He bought me a bottle of Killer Queen in 2016 (I still have it on my drawer).
I get sweet berries and a hint of flower as the top notes (less than 15 minutes).
As the dry down I get intensive dark choco-praline and nice heavy patchouli.
I can say this is a nice-sweet-feminine fragrance. It’s very light and you’ll never go wrong with this baby.
Killer Queen stays for 2 hours on my wrist and about 3-4 hours on my neck.
Only for the patchouli, it stay for 4 hours and more (slightly noticeable from 15-30cm). My body always have good chemistry with patchouli.
Usually, I need about 5 sprays to make everyone around me to smell my perfume.
I got few compliments from friends. Mostly said that I smell pleasant.
Sadly, this is not what I’m looking for from a perfume.
I need something more bold and give a statement or identity.
But, I highly recommend Killer Queen to young woman around 18-25 as their daily fragrance or for woman who has youthfull-girly image.
I like it. Just like it.
Deoks – :
“What are you gonna wear today, my killer queen?”. My husband asked me that, one time before we went out for a ride at weekend 🙂 I teased him back that I wanted Killer Queen. He did not believe such “thing” even existed, until I showed him this page from Fragranctica 🙂 And the moment we saw this bottle at Sears, he HAD TO get it for me 🙂 We like Katy Perry anyway. The perfume was not expensive for a blind buy. The bottle is fun and so “queen-y” 🙂
This has become my “go to” perfume few times, when I could not think of what to wear on a casual routine, to run to the store or errands. It has long lasting power and sillage for a celebrity frag, and actually smells very good as a sweet scent (no synthetic or artificial vibe as I was afraid of). And to my nose, its dry down does have a slight vibe of Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb, but not by much.
Killer Queen has a sweet fruits, light “praline” (not quite sure as it was not that “nutty”) and patchouli combined (if there is such thing: pra-li-fruit-chouli) 🙂 I also smelled a hint of plum. I enjoyed the dry down the best actually, as from that point, the sweetness was already tamed and “quieter”, allowing me to have a whiff of the light frangipani.
devilded – :
oh america, the fruity vanilla garbage that you love; vanilla in the top that calls itself praline then fruit and some patchouli but much lighter, fruitier and girlie than a La Petite Robe Noire; berries, plum, hint of patch and maybe some underlying frangipane; I actually like this but it is like smearing jam on your skin. Fruit.
Volodialove – :
This was a complete blind buy. I was in a phase (don’t laugh!) where I’d distress after a long day teaching special education by going to the K-Mart near my home and blind buy fragrance…and yes, 90% were absolutely celebrity fragrances.
I sprayed it in the car (of course) only to find that I hated it. Flowerbomb. I despise Flowerbomb and Rolf scents in general. Also Bath and Body Works Black Amethyst. Lots of patchouli and quite heavy. Pretty much the exact opposite of what I favor-light, soft and simple. It reminds me of night, November (my least favorite month-I’m an August/September kind of girl), rainy, cold days, and having to bundle into a jacket to brace against the chill. Bah.
анатолий ефремович – :
Very elegant powdery scent
Berries and praline are the most stand out notes
The lasting power is 8 hours
The silage is good
troian39 – :
Oh my gosh!! I blind bought this because it was so inexpensive, I couldn’t pass it up! I first sprayed it and instantly loved this. It opens with a sweet citrus fruit and turns quickly into a musky praline/chocolate plum of yummyness!!
I love this but as with most celeb scents I wish it lasted longer. Only a couple hours and its gone.
effect1988 – :
I feel like this perfume is more suited for nighttime than daytime, but I also feel like it could be worn at any time, if that makes sense. It’s very fruity to begin with, but on me, it turns into a woodsy type of thing after a little while in cold weather. At first I hated this fragrance, but now it’s grown on me, so never underestimate the power of giving a frag a chance; you never know if you’ll like it more the second time around unless you give it a shot. In my opinion, Katy Perry’s produced another crowd pleaser with this one; while I might not like her new music, her perfumes almost never let me down.
zagsergej – :
Blind buy at Marshalls a few years back. It has a really pretty bottle and that’s what caught my eye. I love the scent. It’s quite generic and safe. Which can be good or bad depending on who you are. I think most people would like it. It’s fruity and musky and somewhat fresh. It also has a decent lasting power. This one is a one time only purchase type of fragrance. it’s good for what it is but I don’t find myself wanting to buy it again.
If you are under 20 I highly recommend it, but if you are over 20, it’s okay. Nothing special.
over all i give it a 7/10
romka1001 – :
I put off buying this because I found it to be a bit generic when I smelled it. I gave it another test today and it was on sale as it is as every pharmacy in Australia it seems at the moment! I decided to buy it because it was on sale and because the bottle is quite pretty. I don’t like the fact however that I see this everywhere I find that to be a bit offputting for some reason, I feel like everyone wears it and as I get older I find I feel increasingly that I like wearing less popular ‘at the minute’ perfumes. I will say this – it has pretty decent staying power which is quite rare indeed for a celebrity perfume. It is a fruity berry juicy fragrance. I would say the best things about this fragrance are that it has good staying power, the bottle is pretty, it smells better than an average celebrity scent and it is a pretty safe blind buy if you like floral fruit fragrances. (I also tried the blue version as well and found this to be quite nice too with good staying power). A solid like for me.
romanguar – :
Just received this about an hour ago and had to test it right away! The reviews here had me intrigued but a little worried that it would be either A) too masculine or B) body spray weak. So far, none are true on my skin, phew!!
The opening is pretty potent and sweet, berries, plum and something darker (patch?).
Within 30 min it has gone to a sweet, warm praline that I keep getting a nice whiff of here and there. I do get a LVEB vibe, not a dupe by any means but the same general impression. Works for me, I adore LVEB! I assume it’s the praline/patch combination… I will have to update about the longevity later, I think Sillage is pretty decent at least I can smell myself kinda enveloped in a little fragrant cloud right now. Not ginormous (the girls here at work would have said something!) but decent. I don’t think this smells cheap or vulgar at all, I could see myself wearing this quite a bit!! Very pleased with this inexpensive blind buy!
ETA: longevity isn’t the best on my skin. After a few hours I have to really sniff my wrist to smell it. That’s alright, wish it was longer but it’s not too awful. The bottle is hideously cheap, as is the packaging, but I guess costs have to be cut somewhere and this isn’t a $100 fragrance
sachok-83 – :
Being an online shopper i frequently blind purchase fragrances; which while sometimes can have its disadvantages( TF black orchid im talking about you..) is majority of the time successful, as I discover things i would otherwise not know that i love if walking past it in a store.
Killer queen is just that, ive seen it in stores so many times before and thought nothing of it; years a ago i had Purr which i gave away because it was too sickly sweet and really had no interest in trying anymore of Katys fragrance line. But when i read the note list on this one i knew it wouild be good.
It really is just a fruitier less intense version of flowerbomb, and some may find that disappointing if its not what they were after, but im actually pretty happy about it because i had flowerbomb extreme years ago and have not ever been able to afford another bottle once i ran out, so this is a much cheaper alternative.
Its floral and sweet, warm and clean smelling and is very fitting of the bottles wine red colour. Smells very high quality and classy
Update: Im really loving this actually, the praline comes through as a warm sweetness without being sickly and sugary. The longevity is a bit dissapointing but for 24 dollars i can deal with reapplying every couple of hours. Its onevthat i know ill replace when its finished. Not bad for a blind purchase. I seem to get a faint coconut note every now and again but it could just be the fruitiness of the plum. I loce this one, i really do
Serezgka163 – :
This lasts like crazy! The next morning upon waking it’s just an exceptional musky scent. I am SO happy to have this!
The bottle is kinda cute but not made of expensive glass so it’s kinda cheap looking. Which by the way doesn’t even matter when you wake up smelling this nice.
Advertising may be directed at young girls/women, but this scent grows UP over night! It’s still youthful but compared to the very start, it’s possibly 10-15 years older.
I believe I’m going to choose this for my scent of the day! May you enjoy as much YOUR scent today!
wolf98.rus – :
I first smelled this as a blind buy bc I was able to snag a rollerball for $6. Upon first smelling this it was very different than my go to smells. It was sweet but there was also a darker, thicker, mature something there. It’s masculine at first spray but just sweet enough to not be considered unisex. The drydown is where I fall in love with KQ. It goes so creamy on me! Almost the exact opposite of the opening. As for comparisons, I’ve never smelled anything like this. And it doesn’t remind me of flowerbomb or LVEB at all. I hate those lol.
Sillage: 6
Longevity: 8
vlq751Diobtetty – :
Upon first spray , very very strong !! Almonst overpowering . Smells masculine , like an after shave, not sweet or feminin!! The dry down is a some what musky powdery smell , but is still very masculine . A no for me .
andre71 – :
Wow you cannot tell that this is a celebrity perfume it smells so expensive!
To me this smells similar to viva la juicy, like it could be a flanker of it. It is sweet, creamy and fruity! Smells absolutely amazing, very sexy and not a generic sweet celeb perfume. This to me is very sophisticated and classy for any age.
I bought this in B & M bargains, only £12.99 for 100ml!
This is one of my fave celeb scents. If you like viva la juicy, then just blind buy this for a fraction of the price. Long lasting and great projection, you will not be disappointed.
fat2010 – :
Lovely perfume, as a celeb fragrance I have to admit I assumed it would be sickly sweet and only suitable for young girls..i was wrong . This is lovely it does have the same warm delicious feel as lveb or flowerbomb but less rich. I find this doesn’t last long on me at all but at £12 per 100ml you can afford to go crazy with the spraying.
short_address – :
A gift from a family friend. Not really my kind although I like it, but it has a suprprisingly good lasting power and sillage.

Very interesting, at first spitz I thought I had grabbed Midnight Heat by mistake almost to the point of a double take, currently the best plum/Patch bomb I’ve found. I was “um, I smell Midnight eat big time”..lol I was initially concerned about this prior to its arrival. I had previously gotten Purr for my son’s mother and although it’s nice, It wasn’t quite for my chemistry. This however is totally different and works very well with my skin. The dry down is a bit sweeter than Midnight Heat, where-as it stays quite dark, this one did bring out some praline sweetness. But it stays very sultry and does not turn into candy. It does work well for men as is mentioned in some other reviews but is clearly workable on either. I mostly got Plum and Patch for the first hour and then a settled berry, plum, patch and praline for the rest of it’s stay. All around I’m very glad I got this and wasn’t scared off by the usual celebrity snobbery. I’m not a fan of Katy (nor do I dislike her, she’s just another person to me) but I do love this fragrance.
djchera218555 – :
Killer Queen is a lot of fun, very reminiscent of a Britney Spears fragrance.. and I love the name and the beautiful bottle! Red is a great color for this perfume, it is a bright and cheery cherry with a hint of patchouli for depth. The praline does make it sweet but it doesn’t become toothache-y or cloying, just youthful and fun.
You can’t beat the price either. I found a brand new 0.5 oz on eBay for $7…definitely not going to break your wallet to try it out 🙂 I’m not necessarily a fan of Katy Perry so I appreciate this perfume on its own merit and don’t take it too seriously. It’s a great casual cheapie and a light, fresh, pretty way to enjoy the fruitchouli trend.
avagynartem – :
I wear this during cold months only as it is too heavy otherwise. When I do wear it, I make sure I spray at least 30 mins before I leave the house because I don’t like the top notes, they’re fruity but too strong and unusual for me. But I love the dry down. Chocolate caramel warm deliciousness.
Zorik – :
A lady at work was wearing this perfume she smelled similar to Beckham signature so I thought id try it.
On me it doesn’t smell anything like Beckham signature it has almost a masculine scent not fruity at all . Still nice but different so will probably still wear to use up the bottle
alekseyfil – :
I get SOOOO many compliments when I wear this, I love the smell which is why I made it my signature for the last couple of years. it mixes really well with my skin. HOWEVER when my friend borrows it, it creates a different kind of smell, I guess it just really matches my natural scent.
I get a very smooth vanilla scent even though it doesn’t seem to have any in it, could have fooled me. strong cashmeran effect too.
it lasts forever on me, I put it on about 5 hours before I went to bed, slept in it, woke up and its midday the next day and I can still smell it on my skin but not overpowering sillage like when I first spritz it on.
I could wear this forever, it compliments me without trying too hard. I don’t care if it’s not an expensive designer fragrance, for me it’s still an essential pick.
rozgonoleg – :
Really yummy and a bit Naughty!
On me smells like Jasmine and Patchouli with an extra added sweetness.
Not typically a fan of the cheap celeb scents other than Jessica Simpsons Fancy. This one is cheap and typical of celebrity fragrances but none the less the scent is pleasurable. Worth the $12 you will probably pay.
abakanli – :
This is very similar to Vampire by Body Fantasies. A little darker but this is a very good facsimile. I love Vampire and this is right up my alley.
assaupmus – :
This doesn’t remind me of Flowerbomb or LVEB at all. It smells like a sweet fruity body spray you’d get from Bath and Bodyworks and it’s gone just as fast. If I didn’t get this on clearance, I’d be REALLY disappointed. Don’t waste your money.
glinshikov – :
LOVE this!!! It reminds me a lot of Flowerbomb, but with less patchouli and it’s fresher, so I actually greatly prefer it to FB, and I already love FB as it is 🙂 It doesn’t smell like LVEB at all to me though, I don’t get those comparisons, it’s way lighter and fresher and not quite as sweet. Although, I could see it being like a summer version of LVEB. The bottle is super cute and actually looks high quality, not cheap (even though it is!) and the performance is pretty awesome for the price-it projects well and lasts several hours on my perfume eating skin. I’m super impressed, I have the .5 oz bottle but when I run out I’ll get the biggest one I can, and it’ll replace Flowerbomb in my wardrobe. I don’t listen to pop music and don’t really have an opinion of Katy Perry as an artist either way, but she’s killing it in the perfume department! I’ve been impressed with every one of her perfumes that I’ve tried, keep it up Katy!
HDFRShark – :
Mine is Batch code: 5128 looked up on Checkfresh, manufactured 2015-05-08.
I would have liked this to be stronger and to last longer, but I love the look of the bottle, it’s interesting, but does not stand up or fit in with other bottles so that is a little annoying. With no stand it falls over and sits on the side.
Praline is there, I can smell it toned down with a ton of alcohol, the whole scent experience is fleeting. A fun fragrance to not take seriously.
cathappaw – :
First five minutes of this is amazing! It’s a deep warm berry patchouli type scent that fades fastly into a softer La Vie Est Belle with berries….. Disappointing for me but if you love La Vie Est Belle you’d love this.

I am so sorry but Killer Queen is horrible scent. Very synthetic, plastic ,,fragrance” with stinky peach. Big DISLIKE for this one.
SahenTr – :
I just ordered this fragrance on amazon and I was a little disappointed when I received it because it smells just like tease from Victoria’s secret it took me a while to warm up to this scent but I love it now, its really sexy and has a slight masculine undertone. <3
Sportfreundchen – :
Strong dislike, very plastic sweet glue..wouldn’t be on my shelf. I must say whoever created this flrag for her probably dislike her and masterfully transposed this in the cheap creation (cheap in the sense – vulgar)..
aregon – :
I smelled this on a friend and its VERY VERY girly and sweet. Its about what you’d expect from a pop star like Katy perry. It smells amazing and delicious, and not cheap even though it is.
VAF – :
First, I want to say I’m SOOOOOOO biased about celeb scents. I realize these frags are created by some of the worlds best perfumers. My problem is I don’t want to give a portion of my income to a celeb. Pls realize this is just my opinion. I was told about this frag from a friend. It was a nice suggestion. For a long while I never gave it a thought. The only celeb scents I’ve ever tried that I felt had any real zest and quality to them were/are Sarah Jessica Parker, and Sofia Vergara, and even Elizabeth Taylor. One day I was browsing through Zulily, and in the Frag section they had Killer Queen by Katy Perry. I was reminded again of my friend telling me that I would like this scent based on my loves. I then decided to reread the notes, and even took the time to go read some reviews. I still was hesitant. This time my problem was still giving money to a celeb, but also that I am really NO fan of Katy Perrys in any way shape or form. Seriously, not a fan. Well, I agonized for awhile about taking the plunge and buying this scent. Then I realized it was only 14.99. So I told myself, look if I hate it, I could give it to my daughter. No big deal, right? Soooo, I put in in my cart and processed the order. This was huge for me lol.
NOW, on to my review. First, still not a fan of Katy Perry, but I very much indeed like this fragrance. It’s very lovely, and sophisticated. One would think with all the gourmand goodness in this, it would be very juvenile. Nothing child like to this fragrance at all. It has a very nice balance to it. It’s not a heavy sweetness, it’s not cloying, or syrupy. I don’t find it very synthetic either. It’s a very deep mysterious scent, with a warm spice to it. I would not compare it to some of the fragrances others have mentioned in reviews on this page. It seems many like to compare sweet scents to LVEB just because it’s sweet? I dunno. Gourmands have been around long before LVEB. This scent is mature and alluring, you get the berries from the start with the beautiful plum. The cashmere is very present along with the patchouli. The praline is noticeable but it’s not over powering. The dry down is very beautiful and romantic, a very sexy vide. It really screams IM A WOMAN. Maybe the name does say something for it a QUEEN. If I had to compare the DNA of this fragrance to something, then that would be Tom Ford. The essence is Tom Ford-ish. The quality is average, by that I mean, projection is average, but the longevity is lacking a bit. Could be better, but don’t let that shy you away. The scent alone is worth the purchase. My opinion is you get a breath taking scent for a small price tag. It’s elegant, opulent, and exudes anything I could had imagined. It made me realize, that I should give celeb scents more of a chance, and to be more opened minded in the future when a celeb scent is in question. I may still not like supporting a celeb, but I may be passing up a very lovely fragrance. I’m thankful to my friend who suggested I give it a try. Xox
experking – :
this is so classy and amazing. when i first spray it’s kinda fruity in a dark way, and as it dries it becomes very chocolate-ish and almond-ish. i could smell it all day.
neursiori – :
My 18 month old loves this one me…he snuggles into my neck and says ” more more” which he normally says when he’s asking for fruit! This is an inexpensive bottle of fun that shouldn’t be taken too seriously. I don’t get the praline notes on me at all, which is a shame. That being said, I love the berry, fruity goodness…kinda reminds me of the old Dewberry from The Body Shop that I drowned myself in during my teen years!
aleks261979 – :
This one totally reminds me of Amarige de Givenchy or Chloe Narcisse. I sprayed this on my hand in the shop then forgot about it but kept on sniffing it throughout the day and struggled to remember which one it was as I definitely remembered I had not tried the Amarige. It lasted a few hours on my hand so I think I may give it a try.
vitya325 – :
This fragrance is for a more mature or sophisticated crowd in my opinion. The opening is not as strong as I expected but the silage is good. I do get that LVEB vibe as others has mentioned and bit kind of reminds of a more powerful version of Between us by One direction which is a hidden gem that many people overlook which is good because it’ll always be available and affordable.
alexzav – :
This is a powerful perfume. I drift into a powerful dream state when I wear it, and it is truly Queenly.
I would describe it as balsamic, patchouli, and ethereal with an almost woody undertone, yet sweet in a striking sort of way. It seems a scent for all of the ages of time, and the crystal bottle is truly an amulet.
God Bless!
dianajbj – :
My wife loved Vampire by Body Fantasies for years and it was her signature scent. She was so sad when it was discontinued. Imagine her delight when we bought a small bottle of this perfume and it is almost a dead ringer for the fragrance. Both are warm, seductive, and spicy. While Vampire has dark chocolate notes Killer Queen has praline and both are heavy on the citrus. This is a mature and lovely fragrance.
paradokc – :
This is one of those ones where I’m not really sure what’s going on, but I know I like it. Lots of patchouli and sweetness, I have a hard time picking out anything else. My nose likes it, that’s all that matters to me!
Anarxist14 – :
This one really surprised me!! I had smelled this in the store and thought ‘too fruity’, then got a used bottle in a lot that was of assorted used fragrances. The bottle itself is a ‘cool’ jewel and ‘playful’ as ,mine did not come with a ‘stand’. The sexy caramel and the dry down is just delicious with out being too sweet. The initial berry blast becomes addictive. All in all a very nice gourmand that does not give you a headache or cavities from the usual teen directed fragrances. I may have to find a full bottle and won;t have to break the bank to do it. Highly recommend.
Джага-джага – :
I’ve already reviewed this, but does anyone else find it slightly masculine?
Anatoliy Tomilov – :
I’ve loved this fragrance for years, mixed berries sweetness. I still rebuy often as it can be found ridiculously cheap in discount shops in the UK, as low as £10 for 100ml. It’s one that’s easy to wear any day in any season for me.
sashunchick – :
Sweet, fruity, pleasant stuff with mediocre projection and longevity, perfect for young teens. I enjoy some perfumes like that, but this just doesn’t stand out in any way. Not bad, but not worthwhile if you have a collection that’s already too big to ever use up entirely.
isakov93 – :
I was so surprised when I smelled this scent. I sprayed it on a tester strip and people asked: “what’s that!”. Contrary to what people have said, this is neither straight up girly nor masculine. It’s a sweet and charming scent with a dark and sophisticated twist; I can imagine a good girl with a powerful dark side wearing this! Lovely scent and the patchouli isn’t overpowering which is a big problem with perfumes like this. Silage is a lot better than the other Killer Queens. Overall, it’s sexy and pretty.

Smells like something a hip grandma would wear. Just seems like it was aimed for the older crowd. Smells very good though and lasts pretty long. Hip grandmas rock by the way.

What i love most about Killer Queen is how luxurious it smells…it smells very expensive…to my nose it is like a combination of berries,,,caramel and Jasmine. I wuld call it exquisite even. Very very nice. I do not normally like patchouli scents but i actually really like this one alot. Maybe patchouli isnt so bad if it is used right in a perfume

Killer Queen is not the lethal fragrance I thought it would be with such a name as Killer Queen. It’s not a toxic, dark floral or Gothic woodsy-patchouli chypre or incense. I wish. This is not a Goth fragrance. It smells like something on Katy Perry while performing in a purple wig on stage wearing a princess dress. This is a sweet fruity floral. Perry took the easy route and it is a typical sweet celebrity fragrance. Nevertheless the inclusion of patchouli makes it stand out. It’s got just enough of it to make it enjoyable for patchouli fans. It’s a light but strong scent appropriate for winter time and the holidays. The packaging reminds me of Christmas and that praline note smells like Christmas fruit cake with a praline.
A delicious combination of berries, fruits (plum) and citrus opens the fragrance. They are calling it forest fruit but it’s berry. The orange flavor is light and it’s mainly berries on me as it begins. Smells great when it starts. Tart, sweet, and unmistakably feminine. Smells a bit like hair shampoo with a fruit or berry scent. The body lotion plays up the fruitiness. Sweet and delectable. A few florals in this: jasmine or jasmine sambac, vanilla flower (not listed) tiare or gardenia as frangipani (a white flower or white floral) and celosia. The celosia flower is not strong but then again I’m not familiar
