Brocard The Queen of Spades Classic is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Sylvie Fischer. The Queen of Spades Classic opens with Citrus, Magnolia, and Melon, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, and Orchid. Brocard's The Queen of Spades Classic carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

A pretty, unobtrusive floral that's a bit of a wallflower despite its dramatic name. It's a safe bet for those who like their florals bright and easygoing, though don't expect it to last all day.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a juicy, bright burst of melon and citrus, quickly joined by the lush, creamy scent of magnolia. The heart blossoms into a clean, dewy garden of lily of the valley, jasmine, and a touch of powdery violet. It settles into a soft, woody musk with a whisper of orchid, retaining a fresh and airy feel throughout.
