Like a Queen

5.5

Playboy · 2021

Sweet · Synthetic · Gourmand

Playboy Like a Queen is a sweet, creamy women's fragrance built on jasmine, almond milk and tonka bean. Longevity is rated weak by those who voted, so it may need topping up through the day. It is offered as a women's fragrance, and its sweet, gourmand character leans towards a relaxed, everyday style. The notes read as one whole: jasmine adds a floral brightness, almond milk keeps the scent soft and creamy, and tonka bean deepens the sweetness. There is a synthetic edge among the accords, but the gourmand and creamy side carries most of the weight. Nature Blossom Milky Almond and Summer Fridays Vanilla have a close profile.
