Celebrity fragrance collaborations and own-brand offerings aren’t always a big hit with experts and perfume lovers. Some miss the mark with over-the-top branding and unwearably sweet scents. However, one perfume by an A-lister we’ve all heard of is winning surprising amounts of praise from shoppers who say it delivers a nostalgic, ultra-wearable scent.

Katy Perry’s Killer Queen EDP can be snapped up for an affordable £13.99 on Amazon at the moment, and it’s received thousands of five-star reviews thanks to its scent profile. Launched in 2013, marking the I Kissed a Girl singer’s 5th fragrance under her brand name, the top notes are forest fruits, plum and bergamot; the middle notes are frangipani and jasmine; and the base notes are praline, patchouli and cashmere.

Together, they blend to make a fruity floral scent with creamy hints. One happy shopper pens their thoughts on Killer Queen EDP : “Love this on my wife, the scent is amazing and lasts a full day. She has had lots of perfume but I will always love this particular scent as memories are triggered.

If you want a long-lasting fruity, floral scent then buy this.” “This perfume has a long-lasting lovely smell. I use it when I go out and it lasts a long time because the scent stays all day.

I would recommend it for yourself or as a present. Much cheaper than other places,” writes a second. READ MORE : Perfume fans can get Burberry's 'best of the best' floral scent for almost half price A third chimes in w.
