The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2009 by Vera Wang, Rock Princess was crafted by perfumer Calice Becker to embody the essence of a confident and modern woman. The fragrance opens with vibrant raspberry and peach, creating an initial burst of fruity sweetness that is both playful and inviting. This freshness gives way to a heart of heliotrope, lily, and rose, where soft florals mingle with a touch of cashmere wood for warmth and depth. A musky base anchors the composition, adding a subtle sensuality that makes Rock Princess feel both intimate and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers, as it builds beautifully on the skin. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, while the powdery and musky base notes develop gradually over time. It’s best suited for daytime wear when you want a scent that feels fresh yet sophisticated.

Flowers inside a bottle of eau de cologne

Calice Becker (Asancheyev-Becker) is a French master perfumer and director of the Givaudan Perfumery School, whose fascination with perfume began as a child asking how flowers get inside a bottle of eau de cologne.

“I like to add a dose of intrigue because nothing catches the attention of a touch of something unexpected.”
