Vera Wang Princess is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2006, created by Harry Frémont and Ilias Ermenidis. Princess opens with Water Lily, Mandarin, Apple, and Apricot, settles into a heart of Tiare Flower, Dark Chocolate, Tuberose, and Guava, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, and Vanilla. Vera Wang's Princess carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Princess is a nostalgic, powdery-sweet floral with a playful heart. Its blend of airy fruits, water lily, and a soft chocolate-vanilla drydown is inoffensive and comforting, but lacks depth or boldness. Perfect for those who want to feel pretty, gentle, and quietly charming.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall

Princess shines in spring and fall when its fresh fruity-floral opening and airy sweetness feel uplifting, but its gentle warmth and light gourmand facets can also suit mild summer or cozy autumn days. It can become too faint or lacking in depth for the coldest winter temperatures.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

With low projection and a soft, inoffensive profile, Princess is ideal for casual settings, daytime dates, and even the office. Its playful sweetness is less suited for formal events or active, sporty occasions where a more vibrant or crisp scent would fit better.

About

Vera Wang Princess Eau de Toilette opens with a fresh bouquet of water lily and crisp apple, brightened by apricot and a light touch of mandarin. The heart reveals an airy swirl of guava and creamy tiare flower, softened by tuberose and a gentle, powdery dark chocolate that never turns too gourmand. As it settles, vanilla and amber emerge, enveloping the skin in a translucent sweet cloud with hints of musk and woods. Ethereal and playful, Princess is a soft-focus floral gourmand that conjures images of lilac satin and sparkling tiaras, perfect for those seeking sweetness without heaviness.
