What I say:
I have loved the previous Killer Queen fragrance releases from Katy Perry and this Spring Reign is no exception. It was launched just over a month ago, in the lead up to Valentine’s Day – which really, going by the Australian seasons, is closer to autumn. But such is the joy, spring is coming to Europe, and hence we also see the releases here, although slightly out of season. But at least it is being launched now, and not just until it is next spring in Australia!!
Being called Spring Reign, naturally means that the fragrance is a fresh and light fragrance – which is just how I prefer my fragrances – but some may find that it is too light and fresh as we head towards autumn and winter. Personally I will enjoy using it during autumn, and will then when winter hits probably store it away until spring.
Unlike the other Killer Queen fragrances, this one is very light – ok, the last one, Oh So Sheer, launched during summer was naturally a light one to. And out of the four in the range, Oh So Sheer and Spring Reign are definitely my favourites.
The fragrance contains;
- Top Notes: Pink Freesia, Violet Petals, Cassis Buds
- Middle Notes: Natural Davana, Gardenia, May Flower Rose
- Base Notes: Benzoin Resinoid, Cedarwood Oil, Cashmeran
And especially the freesia, violet and the gardenia stands out to me as making it a light floral scent, while the cassis buds gives it a slightly fruity touch as well, without making it too sweet. It is a very feminine.
Because the fragrance is so light, it is the perfect scent for daytime casual wear, and for those who don’t like too strong fragrances.
Being light, I find that it naturally doesn’t last quite as long as the stronger and spicier scented Killer Queen’s, but still it does last quite a few hours on the skin. If I go out again at night, I do find that I need to reapply again to freshen up.
The Spring Reign comes in a cute pink box with a floral pattern, while the bottle has the same jewel-shaped shape as the previous Killer Queen fragrances. Only the colour is different, this one has a very feminine soft pink shade.
Overall this is a lovely fresh fruity scent that I’ll enjoy for months to come. And at just $69 for a large 100ml bottle, it is very reasonable priced too. If you enjoy fresh fruity and floral scents, then I’m sure you will enjoy Katy Perry’s Killer Queen’s Spring Reign too!
