Vera Wang Glam Princess is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009, created by Ilias Ermenidis and Harry Frémont. Glam Princess opens with Red Currant, Pear, and Guava, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Orchid, and Honey, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood and Marshmallow. Vera Wang's Glam Princess carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Glam Princess is a divisive one. Many find its woody-fruity blend charmingly mature and versatile, but for others, it's a muddled, fleeting disappointment that can lean a bit 'rotting fruit' or 'old lady'. Don't expect a gourmand marshmallow bomb, this is woods first.

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.

Office

Its moderate sillage and lack of strong longevity make it suitable for office wear, as it won't overwhelm. The casual fruity-woody profile is perfect for everyday use, but it lacks the gravitas or projection for formal events or dates.

About

Opens with a juicy, tangy burst of red currant, guava, and pear, giving a vibrant, almost tropical kick. This fresh fruitiness then melts into a heart of delicate orchid blossoms and a subtle honeyed warmth. As it settles, fluffy marshmallow and soft cashmere wood form a cosy, musky base, though the sweetness is far less prominent than the 'gourmand' label suggests. It's a sweet, woody fragrance with a surprisingly muted marshmallow note.
