The Story
Description
Queening is a creamy cotton-and-vanilla gourmand built to feel like a soft, cocooning hug — clean, comforting, and quietly regal.
Created by perfumer Christelle Laprade for Mind Games (USA, 2023), it opens bright and powdery before melting into a skin-soft vanilla, coconut, and musk drydown. Reviewers describe it as “a photo-realistic soft vanilla that is lovely and sophisticated, never overly sweet or heavy” — a dependable compliment-getter for anyone who loves cozy, clean-laundry warmth.
Scent Character
- Woody — 33%
- Sweet — 22%
- Floral — 11%
- Fresh — 11%
- Spicy — 11%
- Resinous — 11%
Translation: a creamy, woody-sweet signature — blond woods and sandalwood give it backbone, vanilla and coconut keep it soft and gourmand, with a whisper of floral powder and warm spice on top.
Fragrance Pyramid
Top: Rose Milk, Bergamot, Cinnamon
Heart: Patchouli, Milk Coffee, Longoza
Base: Vanilla, Blond Woods, Sandalwood
Performance
Longevity: Good — expect roughly 6–9 hours on skin. Reviews are honest here: most get a solid half-day of wear, while a few report it settling close to the skin after about 3 hours, so results vary by chemistry.
Sillage: Moderate — noticeable projection in the first couple of hours, then it becomes a comforting, intimate skin scent.
Projection: Moderate early, soft and close later — a personal-space cozy fragrance rather than a room-filler.

Seasons: Fall and Spring.
Occasions: Business, Evening, Everyday, and Leisure.
Gender: Unisex — a soft, creamy gourmand that wears beautifully on anyone.
Concentration & Provenance
