Queen of Silk

Sometimes perfumes are strange. Something made me curious to visit my sample again and the cloying part has totally disappeared. Now it's very smooth as well, still (luckily) tuberose doesn't stand out. It's still strong though and I think that it can easily cause headache but not for me anymore. So, if you try it and don't like it, wait a couple of weeks even more. You may be as surprised as I am now! In this case I'm very happy that my sample was leaking a little bit since I got a sniff of it from time to time when I was just moving my sample. And today the magic happened and now I sprayed this heavily in my arms. MY FINAL REVIEW: Absolutely stunning blend where all the notes merges perfectly. Seductive, captivating, full-bodied, rich scent is a combination of fruity aroma, warm spicy touch of precious Saffron, creamy, silky white florals and dark tones from Patchouli, Myrrh and Ambery nuances. Tuberose is made beautifully since it differs a lot of the style nowadays. It’s not heady nor stands out so clearly which I’m used to but it’s glorious and impressive regardless. Vanilla and Passionfruit gives it fruity sweetness and musky base makes it classy, seductive, yet cozy. It really adds a sensual vibe to the dry down. I’m not a fan of ambroxan, but here it doesn’t bother me after the initial difficulty, even though a hint of syntheticity does come through every now and then. The oud is not particularly noticeable, but it certainly adds depth to the overall composition. The texture is almost sticky first like bold as well but it evolves into the silky smooth, soft and pampering. This is a fragrance for festive moments as well as occasions when you want to be noticed. It’s a confidence booster. It makes you feel like a queen. 👑 I don't have any idea how my thoughts can change this much during around 5-6 weeks. Now I smell all the beautiful little things in the notes in it but still I can't find Oud in it. Is this "Oud perfume"? No, it's not noticeable. Is this "Tuberose scent"? I would say no because there is so much other thing going on as well but for sure it's one of the notes which makes this quite heady and easily dominate the concoction if you don't like it. Is this fruity? No and first I was disappointed not to even get a gentle whiff of Passionfruit. Now it’s pushing through all that complexity and the fruity flavor is just perfect. What about the comparisons below? Alien, Aura or even Angel by Mugler: I don't find any similarities and I love so much all of them. Alien has been mentioned many times but it's heady amazing Jasmine. Blonde Amber: nothing same but the headache from both. NR Musk Noir Rose: No, not even close and even if changing that into mature grandma scent (whatever that means), no. Unisex? Absolutely I think this is either love or hate fragrance. This is very complex and there is a quality but please sample first. This is not a safe blind buy. THIS BELOW IS BASED ON A RANDOM SAMPLE when I really tried to give it a full wear multiple times but I couldn’t. Now after many testings I would love to wear it nonstop. I don't know exactly what is bothering me here the most but the blend is cloying and it gives me a headache. If I'm checking the notes there is nothing which I don't like even if I haven't been wearing so much Tuberose dominant scents lately (love it though). This is blended very well and it's difficult to detect some individual notes. This is very potent as well which may be partly because I don't like this one but I think it's quite strong anyway and with this scent the less is more. Thank you for reading, I hope my review was helpful. I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG and/or YouTube (English subtitles): @ninamariahperfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more. 🤗

I’m addicted to this fragrance, absolutely in Love. I received a sample & at first spray I wasn’t quite sure if I loved or hated it. Wore it for several hours then decided to go in for another spray. The second spray is where I picked up the finer more subtle notes and it was instant True Love, I’m obsessed. I guess my nose needed to adjust to this fragrance. The first spray it smelled potent, almost too chemically, and I kept telling myself it was too masculine smelling for me. The second spray is where I noticed the sweetness of the vanilla, the soft lovely tuberose, saffron & yes oud but its a good oud. It smells absolutely divine on my skin. My sample bottle broke after I only got to test it for two days (dropped it on floor and glass broke 😢). I immediately went into withdrawals & purchased the small bottle. The same thing happened when it was delivered to my house a few days later: at first spray I was hesitant & unsure if I really did like it. Honestly, the first 30 minutes is not my favorite part. What it transforms into over the next several hours is where it’s at for me. When I went back for the second spray a few hours later, that’s when I knew what heaven smelled like. This is beautifully blended, soft & gentle, sweet yet bold. Queen of Silk is a sexy scent for sure, I feel like a goddess wearing it. It seems counterintuitive but I think this is a summer scent. I feel like it gets better in the heat. I live in Florida and when I go outside in the summer heat I want to keep my wrist at my nose bc it just smells amazing. It has impressive projection & lasts all day, especially if you spray it on clothes. I work from home, I don’t think I’d recommend wearing it to the office bc it’s pretty strong - but in such a lovely way! Longevity on skin is 6+ hours min, on clothes or on paper lasts for days & days. Sprayed it on a piece of paper and it still smells good almost a week later.

She needs no introduction—because she introduces herself. Creed’s Queen of Silk is not a whisper, she’s a declaration. The moment she enters the room, she arrives—bold, unmistakable, and unforgettable. This is a scent that carries itself with the kind of confidence that doesn’t wait to be acknowledged. Opening with a flash of juicy passionfruit, there’s an immediate spark—unexpected, bright, and flirtatiously tart. But don’t be fooled: this is only the first layer of her complexity. Soon, saffron threads weave into the mix, luxurious and spiced, setting the stage for what’s to come. The heart is rich with oud, smooth yet commanding, grounding the fragrance in an opulent depth. And just when you think you’ve unraveled her, the Bourbon vanilla slides in—warm, intoxicating, and utterly sensual. This is no casual fragrance. Queen of Silk is for the night—the kind where velvet dresses, candlelit dinners, and whispered intrigue unfold. It’s a statement piece in olfactory form: elegant, daring, and utterly unapologetic. Spray with caution. One or two is power. More is peril. Not for the faint of heart. But for those who wear it well? She reigns.

Just a huge WOW! I heard about Creed "Queen of Silk" and absorbed multiple social media reviews about the fragrance. But I never considered sampling, or purchasing it mainly due to 1) the passion fruit note, and 2) the Creed price-point. I received a sizable decant of Queen of Silk (from a reputable e-commerce seller) with a recent full bottle purchase of Amouage "Love Tuberose." So, the passion fruit note (not at all a favorite note of mine) and the apricot Osmanthus are definitely present in the bright citrus opening. There's some saffron spiciness, which I love. The perfume immediately morphs into a creamy, warm melange of florals-definitely tuberose, osmanthus, magnolia. Oud wood rises a bit but is never super-prominent. The dry-down is to die for with more florals, resinous woods, creamy vanilla, a smidge of patchouli and a bunch of other things that perfectly anchor the fragrance. The ingredients are high quality; the blending is impeccable. Had to purchase a 75ml bottle. Just buy this. I LOVE this fragrance!!

Absolutely love love love this one. It was love instantly, and so addicted to it i keep sniffing the bottle with the cap off. I dont analyze scent as important as the how it effects my mood. It makes me feel beautiful, feminine, confident, full of women power, and it takes me to a place where I fear nothing. I dont know if I ever caused people around me headache because it supposed to be too strong for some, I found it last longer than most, and so far no one told me its too strong when I wear it. I finally looked at the notes of this amazing fragrance, i understood why I love it so much because all the notes are my favorites. When they are blended masterfully of course I am crazy for it. Thank you Creed for making this one, couldn't be more personal for me this one. I like many different type of scents, but there are always something missing. This one i can say to me it is a fully satisfying scent. It doesn't need anything more or has anything too much. Just my favorite perfume. Enjoying it much.
