About this deal

Maybe it's because this still smells quite sweet for a fairly long amount of time after applying and that's why people aren't noticing. I wore the new version recently and it was lovely for a couple of hours, it then becomes VERY strong on the floral (bitter floral, Maybe too much tuberose added) and again afterwards it fortunately gets slightly sweeter right at the base notes.

Initial impression: The scent is light and refreshing, reminiscent of the year 2009. However, it took multiple sprays for the fragrance to become noticeable on my skin. I don't really like guava, and definitely don't want to smell like it, but if you do, this is the perfume for you. Opening: You are definitely met with the guava and Lilly notes. It smells floral, but now quite… because immediately after you are met with the chocolate MIDDLE notes which makes it sweet and not too powdery which tends to happen with notes like lilly. I'm embarrassed to admit how many bottles of this I've got through over the years. In fact, I still have two unopened bottles in my wardrobe. Whenever I see it on sale I have to buy it. This perfume was given to me on my birthday, some years ago and it was a fully guaranteed compliment-getter. Seriously, everywhere I went there would always be someone who complimented me on the smell...and here's the deal, when I was asked what I was wearing I felt somewhat sheepish saying 'Princess' because it sounds quite childish and also because the bottle looks marginally immature. However, the bottle has grown on me and I quite enjoy it now. The pretty purple liquid in the crystal-looking heart-shaped bottle is just quintessentially feminine and quite fairy-tale-like, and although the lid is fiddly and often gets lost, even that has grown on me. I got a rollerball of this perfume for my eighth birthday, and have loved it ever since. It is soft, delicate, and beautiful, on top of being very nostalgic. I can't say it smells very sophisticated, or has any kind of niche leanings, but I still think that it is an excellent addition to any collection. It's a watery floral, sweetened by light fruity notes and a chocolatey base. It's casual but effortlessly feminine and I can see this working all year round. Even in high heat, the fruity notes keeps the sweetness effervescent, rather than suffocating.

Good GRIEF. I can only think that the name of this scent (and it's a pretty silly name, but so what? most perfume names are goofy: see Opium, Polo, Cabotine) is responsible for a big percentage of the flak it attracts. It's a scent that people love to hate. I gave it a few test runs, and every single time I thought it was underwhelming. I thought both the sillage and the longevity were poor. To me, it basically dried down to nothing and thought it was undetectable after maybe an hour or two. I thought the scent itself was basic and underwhelming, getting just some dated sweet florals and not much more.

I own over 50 bottles of perfume, many of them niche or high end, and yet my 100ml bottle of Princess is already half empty. That says something. She's sweet, but not cloying, thanks to a generous underpinning of aquatic notes. Be warned though, the chocolate might not come through on you. It definitely doesn't on me. Instead, I get pleasant, but generic honeydew-and-vanilla kind of sweetness. Floral/ fruity/ sweet perfume, but not as juvenile as some. I really like this one, and get compliments often wearing it. You cant moan for the price, its super cheap, i just wish it had more longevity! Closing: after the dry down you are left with the vanilla and amber notes which makes this a pretty scent that is not overpowering but still strong enough to be complimented. Anyone here that is a fragrance wiz can help point out the possible notes that may be the trigger? Though it’s not in the same realm .. when I was younger- my mom put on Red Door every morning and I would get seriously nauseas with a migraine that lasted through the school day. I believe I was able to narrow that problem being the ANISE in it. Because I’m my early 20s.. my at the time Bfs parents got me (I may be butchering this name) Lempitica .. the purple apple shape bottle.. and I had to pretend to love it for the rest of the day as my bf drenched me in it.. and years later - I realized it was the same common ingredient .. retched ANISE. A beautiful combination of a soft scent of vanilla mixed with dark chocolate with a hint of soft white flowers, followed by a delicate creamy musk.

On the hunt I was for a bargain priced Princess (hopefully in gift set form) to add to my ever growing collection. You can never have too many oriental gourmands, right? Finally I found the set I was looking for, it came with a 1.7 oz/50 ml EDT and 2.5 oz lotion and shower exfolliant gel. Oh how sweetly divine this scent is layered, very long lasting (8 hrs), silage heavy (oh yes, there's silage) sweet, vanilla, chocolate-y indulgence. Now the image that comes to mind when I think of Princess is a large pastel pink vanilla butter cream flavored cake with rich, dark chocolate shavings sprinkled on top. And of course the dessert is complimented with a side of guava flavored sherbet. I dunno. This is a nice, polite, sweet generic unidentifiable floral, slightly cotton candy musk. Reminds me of aquolina pink sugar - minus the synthetic cotton candy note- just the vanilla musk part. Princess also reminds me of Intimate fantasy and the dry down of Prada Candy. Basically sweet musk, lol. Girly, rich, sugary, soft, clean, musky, powdery, creamy, light, crisp, sweet, innocent, cotton candy, dreamy cloud-like fragrance!

I really enjoyed this perfume when it first came out. I loved the cute bottle and crown top. It was pretty, sweet n girly, but not cheap-looking. I would get compliments from women even hours later after I was off of work. One thing I did notice is that men didn't really compliment me very often on this scent. Only men with whom I already had established relationships. Which to me was interesting. I think it has to do with that powder and amber softness that is just comforting to them. Not so much intriguing or attention-getting. The fragrance itself is so feminine, a perfect blend of fruity and floral notes with a creamy depth that comes from the chocolate and the vanilla. Honestly, Princess is something I wore every day and never got tired of but lately every bottle I've had has felt like it's been watered down and barely lasts half an hour on me. I can hardly smell it at all after 10 minutes or so - this is not the Princess I have known and loved. I've been pining for the original princess and can only think that this scent must have been reformulated???? I keep spraying to try to rekindle the memories of the original but it really isn't the same anymore. Has it got a new formula??? Or is it me who has changed???? It is comical to me that with every perfume I’ve ever worn and loved, this is literally the only one I have ever been complimented on. Every time I wear this someone compliments me. It is so reminiscent of the late 2000s. I mostly interpret this as a white floral. The other notes are present, but none of them are identifiable on an individual level. This is extremely well-blended. I actually wondered if the lady at the perfume counter was showing me the floral flanker, since I was expecting chocolate and guava, but she showed me the box and it was indeed original Princess.I'm on my second bottle of this fragrance. To me, the chocolate note is the most recognizable. Although it has vanilla in the notes, I can hardly detect it or it's been combined nicely with chocolate. Otherwise, I'd stay away from it. I have never detected any fruity scent at all. On the other hand, I don't how the florals here actually smell like but there's a scent of maturity mixed in with the chocolate so I guess that's the floral aspect. It's not overly sweet and it's quite a compliment getter. Longevity on me tends to change from time to time so I've rated it as moderate. Many people categorize this scent for teenagers but I think adult women can still wear this too. The biggest con I can say is that its alcohol scent overpowers the other scents as time goes by. This wears as an ethereal/airy/fuzzy white floral forward scent then softens with some fruitiness — never really comes off as being warm though. It’s quite neutral and almost veiled, really hard to distinguish between individual notes. So I had this when it came out in 2006 and had nothing but fond memories of semi-formals, going out with friends, and some of my first dates.

Today i tried this and i am loving it. Now i appreciate its beauty on its own. This smells so warm and cozy. The chocolate note blends well with the fruits and florals. It has that feel good and comfortable factor which is perfect for lounging around the house while watching netflix and drinking hot cocoa. It smells so soft, feminine and dainty and i think this can generally please a lot of people. This is a very elegant, soft, feminine, and beautiful scent. It smells like what you would imagine a princess would smell like if you were younger. My mother used to wear this in 2006 and gave it to me when I was a teenager. It makes me very nostalgic. I even have an extra bottle sealed in the box for when it runs out.
