Perfume is one thing I wear everyday. I love the vast diversity of available perfumes, and they are all unique to each other. If you remember a few months back, I reviewed the Vera Wang Princess perfume, and since then, I received the Vera Wang Rock Princess for my birthday. To say the least, I was looking forward to putting it to the test to compare it to the original.
Firstly, the bottles are similar; they are of the same, elegant, heart-shape which is made of glass, with the cap consisting of two rings, which I think makes the bottle appear cute. It has the standard "Vera Wang" wrote across the front, followed by the name of the perfume. With this perfume, the bottle has a theme that co-operates with the name. It is "edgy", essentially "rocky" and "mysterious". The black bottle with white markings makes it unique to my other perfumes on my shelf.
If you are familiar with the original Princess, you will know that it has a distinct, sweet scent. However, this perfume is not nearly half as sweet. Instead, it is empowering, darker and different too. Although, I do notice that there is a noticeable sweetness, but has been toned down a lot. I couldn't say I preferred one over the other because they differ so much.
The opening notes include white peach and raspberry which is mixed with floral Jasmine, lily and rose. The base notes include cashmere, musk and coconut. Looking at the notes, they're all unique to each other, yet they blend beautifully to create a stunning scent.
I highly recommend checking out this perfume. It may only be my second perfume in the Vera Wang Princess range, but I would most certainly expand upon that, and would love to own them all one day.
Have you tried this perfume? What's your opinion on it?
I love this perfume! :)

ReplyDeleteNot smelt either of these perfumes but I am a sucker for a cool, quirky perfume bottle...sometimes more than the perfume itself!! =)
