Our verdict on Royal Desire: Statement

Christina Aguilera's Royal Desire is a controversial little number. Half the crowd think it's a sweet, powdery marshmallow dream, while the other half find it too floral, or even worse, disappointingly weak. Definitely not a safe blind buy, as it seems to react very differently on different skins.

Its generally light projection and intimate sillage make it suitable for casual wear and close encounters on a date, without being overpowering. However, reports of weak longevity mean it's unlikely to make an impact in formal settings or last through strenuous activities.

About

Opens with a sweet and tangy burst of blackcurrant and yuzu, quickly ushering in a delicate powdery marshmallow heart. White florals like lily and honeysuckle weave through the composition, softened by powdery iris and a subtle rose. The base settles into a warm, creamy blend of sandalwood, musk, and cedar, providing a gentle woody foundation that keeps the sweetness from becoming cloying.
