Review is for my own future reference - I LOVED the first time I smelled it. It's a very sweet warm yummy vanilla. However, it's a sickly sweet fragrance that I'd likely get sick of wearing every day. It also had very very weak longevity when I bought it (~2015). I bought and returned this perfume b/c I was a student at the time and didn't want to waste money on a perfume that didn't last long. If gifted to me now I would keep it and I've thought about repurchasing it before. Overall, a very yummy scent for high school/uni aged, but it doesn't last long.Edit: I just bought a 100ml bottle. The first spray has a strong alcohol scent. the dry down is still a beautiful yummy warm sweet vanilla. However, the silage is still VERY weak. Lasting power is okay. I agree like ... MoreReview is for my own future reference - I LOVED the first time I smelled it. It's a very sweet warm yummy vanilla.

I agree like some others have said, that you could probably buy a cheaper body spray that smells the same. I still LOVE this though. I wish the sillage and longevity were better though bc it is SERIOUSLY lacking! I'm surprised that so many people dislike it!

Katy Perry Mad Potion 30Ml Eau De Parfum EDP Spray

Killer Queen opens with a rich plum note. I can also make out what I think is raspberry. The plum note is long and distinctive, so carries down to the heart of the perfume, along with the patchouli. This mixture of plum and patchouli is very similar to Midnight Heat by Beyonce another Coty release. Im not familiar with celosia, and except for the jasmine I am not able to separate any floral notes from the sweetly powdered floral jumble heart of the fragrance, as the praline develops and mixes with the patchouli, lasting for the duration of the perfume. I think that the powdered floral mix is very similar to Taylor by Taylor Swift Elizabeth Arden overall, so maybe there is magnolia in Killer Queen There is no strong indication between the heart notes and the base, ... MoreKiller Queen opens with a rich plum note.

I think that the powdered floral mix is very similar to Taylor by Taylor Swift Elizabeth Arden overall, so maybe there is magnolia in Killer Queen There is no strong indication between the heart notes and the base, thanks to the constant presence of the powdery floral mix and patchouli. The soft, creamy praline adds a slight nuttiness so it is a warm, comforting mix, which does lend a bit of a different air to Killer Queen as it dries down. The final drydown reminds me of Lancmes La Vie Est Belle, so theres nothing new here either. Official scent notes wild berries, dark plum, bergamot, velvety red flower Celosia, Sambac jasmine, rainbow plumeria, cashmere, patchouli and liquid praline. Killer Queen is pleasant and easy to wear for autumnwinter, but not anything to get excited about. I love perfumes with praline andor vanilla in, but this is meh for me it reminds me of other perfumes all the way through. I will happily use my bottle as its here, but I wouldnt choose to buy it for myself. With a new company now in charge of the Katy Perry fragrances Coty, Katy promising a new mature image, the meaning behind the perfumes name, and the marketing campaign for this, I was expecting Killer Queen to be adult, a bit more unique and confidently commanding. However the result is still young and unoriginal. Killer Queen doesnt have a unique stamp of its own to make it stand out from the crowd, and it is not something that Id imagine Katy herself actually wearing.
