Queen of Silk

Creed's Queen of Silk, released in 2024, is a woody floral with a sweet, ambery depth: about two thirds of those who describe it call it gourmand and amber as well, and a third find it spicy or resinous. It is positioned as a feminine fragrance.

The opening pairs osmanthus and magnolia, apricot-like and softly floral, with a thread of saffron. The heart is richer: tuberose brings a creamy white-flower intensity, passionfruit adds a tart, juicy contrast, and oud with patchouli gives it darkness and earth. The base is where the warmth gathers, with myrrh and incense for a resinous, slightly smoky glow, Madagascar vanilla for sweetness and cedar, musk and ambroxan for a long, smooth trail.

About half of wearers report it as long lasting and a quarter as eternal, with strong sillage for about half. It is voted for autumn and winter and clearly for night, about two to one over day. That suggests an evening and special-occasion fragrance for cold weather rather than a daily office scent.
