ROCK PRINCESS








Once upon a time there was a princess...

Well, so continues the saga of our beloved Princess...
Her beauty and fairness spanned far and wide. Her fairy godmother, Vera Wang, had already created a magic potion for her called  'Princess'. This potion was fruity and whimsical with water lily, guava and chocolate and other magical secret ingredients.

 It was well received by all, and the princess became the
most loved in all the lands. Wherever she went this mystical scent followed her and it made the people swoon with delight especially the visiting Prince’s from the neighbouring Kingdoms. It was all’ sugar and spice and everything nice’ but the princess became bored, after all she was still young and free and wanted something more challenging.

 She wanted to experience the wild side of life, have a little fun, and get into a bit of mischief.


Rock music, short skirts with silver chains, black platform shoes, untamed  hair with black eye-liner and pouty lips. She wanted a scent that would express her inner wild child, her free spiritedness and girliness. After all she was still all ‘sugar and spice' but just a little less nice.





Vera Wang famed godmother, created ‘Rock Princess’. 
This elixir is still sweet with top notes of raspberry, peach and bergamot blended together with heliotrope, rose, jasmine and lily and warmed by the cashmerwood, musk, iris and coconut. All this goodness was poured into a black heart sprinkled with diamond dust and was crowned with silver.




Never judge a book by its cover. Rock Princess may look a little wilder, darker with its alternative attitude but on the inside it’s still sweet and innocent. A total contradiction in terms.




But isn't that what youth is all about?
