Launched in 2013. Killer Queen by Katy Perry is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance for women. The nose behind this fragrance is Laurent Le Guernec. Top note: Forest Fruits, Plum and Bergamot; Middle not: Jasmine Sambac, Frangipani and Celosia; Base notes: Praline, Patchouli and Cashmeran. Pop star Katy Perry launches her third fragrance and the first one done in cooperation with Coty. The scent is called Killer Queen by the song written by Freddie Mercury, and apparently it is totally different from its two predecessors. “Killer Queen has been in my vocabulary since I was 15, because of the song ‘Killer Queen’ by Queen,” said Perry to wwd. “Freddie Mercury painted the lyrics of this woman who I wanted to be. She seemed very powerful, and she captivated a room when she walked in. I named my company Killer Queen after those lyrics. I feel like, after all this time, it was appropriate to use that name in association with something I did. I feel like I’m falling, finally, into that woman Freddie painted.” Announced as a playful, sophisticated, powerful, edgy and delicious fragrance, it reflects the rebellious spirit of the singer. Its creation is signed by Laurent Le Guernec of IFF.
