Queen

This Queen perfume is unbelievable you beautiful! It was a blind buy on Amazon with good reviews so I bought it. Received this perfume this morning and tested it immediately! Wow did this perfume surprise me! The opening with pear and black currant is pretty then the powdery iris kicks in fading into a stunning Praline, vanilla, and tonka bean at the drydown. I never smelled orange, jasmine, or patchouli on my skin which I prefer. This scent is feminine, soft and pretty! I live in Arizona desert with temperatures over 120 degrees in summer but today was only 108 when I tested this perfume. It lasts all day in the heat and once it is skin scent it stays strong for hours on me! That rarely ever happens! Projection is 6 feet with a trail. This was a great purchase and I highly recommend it if you live in the heat. It never was overpowering. I have no problem wearing it with asthma. I love it!

A DIVINE concoction!!! I truly love it! The patchouli is so good in it, and the delicious sweets, (smooth and chocolatey!!!! mmmmmm....) and gorgeous fruits and fabulous flowers, particularly the jasmine and orange blossom, and the tonka bean is superb. A totally gorgeous mix, which lasts strongly all day, and the dry-down.....dreamy!!! And the bottle is co cute; gorgeous superb colour too!!!! LOVE!!!!

Beautiful sweet thick long lasting. I love it! Def could be a LVAB flanker but I like this better. So pretty!

thought i'd like it because of the sweeter notes but i do not. smells like something my grandmother would wear so i let her smell it and sure enough she loved it. read between those lines.

This is La Vie Est Belle. Exactly. I received a sample of this with my purchase of Noora and as soon as I read the notes on the card I thought "Hmm these are awfully similar to LVEB.." and then I popped the top off the sample and sniffed the atomizer.. and yep! LVEB through and through. I may be judging it unfairly though. I will give Queen a proper wear and report back :) Edit: So, I did judge this one unfairly. And now I have to have a full bottle! This could very well be a LVEB flanker.. one that is heavier on the fruit and light on the praline. This is a far more luxe rendition of LVEB. The sweetness is there but it is oh so classy and refined.. I love sweet scents, don't get me wrong, and I love LVEB but the praline can be cloying at times. I would highly recommend this perfume to those of you who enjoy LVEB but want a fruitier, deeper version. The black currant is strong and gives a blueberry vibe akin to Midnight Fantasy, but like I said--much less sweet but far more luxurious. Dare I say, I might actually like this *more* than La Vie Est Belle EDP. It certainly lasts longer and has more sillage. Arabian fragrances tend to be so very long lasting and well-performing.. I think they make them heavy duty for the hot, dry climate of the Middle East, and this suits me well as I live in a hot, dry climate as well. Swiss Arabian fragrances are always so high quality and gorgeous.. I don't think I've found one yet that I've disliked. I've mainly dabbled in the CPOs (oils) but now I am exploring their EDPs much to the chagrin of my wallet and am finding that even their spray perfumes are extremely worthwhile!

Bit the bullet after the great reviews for this fragrance and the Swiss Arabian House. I've used it 3 days in a row. I find it a very pretty fragrance, and yes very similar to LVEB, but it it's not exactly alike, and it's not as sweet- that's a good thing. Love pear notes :) at first spray and it is a strong floral, but I find that it starts mellowing very quickly, too quickly (within the hr). At about 3 hrs it's a close to the skin fragrance, with a non existing dry down -dsappearing completely at about 4-5 hrs, sadly it lasts longer on clothing than it does on the skin. I even tried using it with lotion to give it something to cling to with no luck. Yes it's more affordable than LVEB, but you get what you pay for, LVEB has more projection and sillage and the dry down is absolutely lovely, and with Queen you'd have to lug the bottle around with you or you'll end up with no fragrance in less than half way through your day. My hubs loved the fragrance the first day I tried it, he smelled it about 15 mns after I'd sprayed. The next day, I had worn it for about 3 hrs and asked if he liked what I was wearing, he said he didn't smell anything :/ It's been a little cool, spring and all, so I'll try it again in the middle of summer and see if it works better then. Keeping my fingers crossed! This is my first Swiss Arabian fragrance, and I have to say, I am not impressed. Update: Ok, gave it another chance and this time I like it :) it does smell pretty and it lasts longer than I first thought. A season changes everything. It does have a LVEB vibe but it's not the same.

Sweet, gourmand, luscious and sassy with an incredible projection and longevity. I would rather wear it in the evening than in the daytime, but it is only my opinion. It reminds me of La Vie Est Belle but I wear it not as a clone of the previously mentioned perfume, yet as a unique scent with a particular beauty and spledour.

This is beauty in a bottle. It opens with pear and black currant, and the dry down is a soft and delicious patchouli & pear. I love it. Longevity & projection are excellent, at least on my skin. Top notes: pear,black currant. Middle notes: orange blossom,jasmine,iris. Base notes: patchouli,tonka bean,vanilla,praline.
