A highly praised designer perfume with a 'beautiful' scent and thousands of five-star reviews has been heavily discounted ahead of Amazon Prime Day. The Vera Wang Princess Eau de Toilette, usually retailing at £66 for a 100ml bottle, is now available for just £18.72 on Amazon, marking a saving of over 70%. This price undercuts other retailers such as Boots, where it is £20, and The Perfume Shop, priced at £23.99.
Fragrance Notes and Profile
The fruity floral perfume opens with bright top notes of lady apple, waterlily, and apricot, giving an initial fresh and crisp impression. The heart reveals pink guava and Tahitian tiare flower, evoking a tropical, holiday-inspired aroma. The base notes of wild tuberose, dark chocolate, and vanilla chiffon provide a sweet, floral finish that many reviewers find highly compliment-worthy.
Alternative Scents
For those who prefer a more pronounced apple note, Kayali Eden Juicy Apple offers a similar profile starting at £28 for a 10ml bottle, with notes of juicy red apple, vanilla flower, and floral jasmine. Another classic in the fruity floral category is DKNY Be Delicious, which blends fresh apple with crisp cucumber and a heart of magnolia and rose. It is currently £40 at Boots for a 50ml bottle.
Customer Reviews
The Vera Wang Princess perfume has earned an average rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars from over 57,283 global ratings on Amazon, with 79% being perfect five-star reviews. One delighted shopper commented, 'Smells gorgeous. I can't believe how low the price is for such a nice perfume! Always get complimented and asked what I'm wearing when I use this.' Another buyer who purchased it as a gift wrote, 'I bought this perfume as a gift for my daughter. For the price, this is a great buy! The scent is fresh, warming and my daughter truly loved it! Over 53K buyers cannot all be wrong.'
Mixed Feedback
However, not all reviews are entirely positive. One shopper noted that the scent could be faint, stating, 'It's a nice perfume but the smell is a bit faint, it's a bit too subtle and doesn't last very long. Really need to sniff to figure out the notes.' Another found it long-lasting but not floral enough, saying, 'It certainly does not smell flowery, it smells like something a woman in her 60s would wear - a very deep and heavy vanilla like smell. It does last long, put it on in the morning and could smell it all day.'
Overall Impression
Despite some mixed opinions, the majority of reviews are glowing. One reviewer provided an in-depth analysis, writing, 'This is the perfect everyday perfume! I've loved this perfume for years and honestly it never gets old. It's such a pretty, youthful scent. Sweet without being sickly, and just the right balance of fruity and floral. You get that first note of apple and guava (which is fresh and juicy) and then it settles into a softer, slightly warmer vanilla base that lingers on the skin. Honestly, I think this is one of those perfumes you can wear at any age if you like a sweet but classy scent. For me it's just an easy, feel-good fragrance that always gets compliments. Love it!'
