Celebrity Flowerbomb
Like countless other reviewers around the web, I get strong Flowerbomb vibes from this, too. Killer Queen uses the same kind of patchouli mixed with sweet jasmine, subtle bergamot and cookie-ish gourmand notes. There are two main differences though. One is the intense dark fruitiness of this, the plum and forest fruit are very noticeable, especially in the opening. The other is a kind of oily, creamy texture in the base coming from the frangipani and cashmeran. It smells like tropical suntan oil underneath the rest of the fragrance. At first I didn't notice it, but it's there, and I think they could have left it out. It doesn't fit in with the Flowerbomb DNA and dark berry notes in my opinion.

All in all, I think this is a typical celebrity scent. Sweet, pleasant and very wearable, maybe a good choice if you like Flowerbomb and berry/plum combos and don't want to spend a fortune. But not groundbreaking and not the most impressive interpretation of the fruitchouli concept.

Worth the purchase
At first I wasn't sure about whether this perfume is worth it or not but after wearing it a few times, it's so worth it. I saw somewhere online that it smells similar to Viktor&Rolf's Flowerbomb and honestly that's what made me get it. I wore it and it's absolutely phenomenal. It's sweet and feminine and lasts for a good 4-6 hours. A lot of people thought that the packaging is tacky but it doesn't feel cheap when you hold it. My friend thought it was a perfume by Guerlain when she saw the bottle so there are different opinions about it. I realised after a few wears that the opening scent is a bit similar to Black Opium. So in the end, you get a perfume that's somewhere between Flowerbomb and Black Opium.

Lovely oriental, it reminds me alot of Maria Carey's "M" and Rihana's Rebel Fleur. It is rather sweet a little spicy and earthy. Pretty lond lasting 4-5 hrs. The bottle is a true gem though the packaging is rather cheap. I am happy with my choise.

I absolutely Love this one! It’s been my signature scent for years. It’s sweet, but not a teen-girl scent either.
