The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Rock Princess 2023 by Vera Wang was launched in 2023, created by perfumers Calice Becker and Stephen Nilsen. The fragrance opens with a bright and fruity peach note, followed by the floral complexity of ylang-ylang and lily of the valley. As it settles into its base notes of sandalwood, damask rose, night-blooming jasmine, amber, musk, and vanilla, it transforms into a warm and powdery embrace that feels both modern and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply Rock Princess 2023 with two sprays on pulse points. The fruity top notes are fleeting, so it's important to let the rich base notes develop over time. This fragrance is best suited for evening wear when its warm and powdery heart can fully unfold.

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.”
