Killer Queen

by Laurent Le Guernec

Katy Perry Killer Queen is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Laurent Le Guernec. The fragrance opens with Plum, Red Fruits, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Celosia, Jasmine, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Praline, Patchouli, and Cashmeran.

Our verdict on Killer Queen: Statement

Killer Queen is a divisive celebrity frag - some find it a gorgeous, budget-friendly 'Flowerbomb' alternative, while others dismiss it as a generic, sickly sweet fruitchouli. Approach with caution, but it might just slay for you.

Best Seasons

Best For:

Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and sometimes intense nature, coupled with moderate to strong sillage, makes it less ideal for the office. However, the 'sexy' and 'sultry' vibe mentioned by reviewers, along with the woody-gourmand base, fits perfectly for dates and evening casual outings.

About

This scent opens with a bold, tart burst of red fruits and juicy plum, quickly moving into a rich, sweet heart with prominent praline and a hint of warm, abstract florals. The dry down introduces a soft, woody cashmeran alongside a sometimes-challenging patchouli, giving it a deeper, more mature edge than many celebrity offerings.
