I Am The Queen
by Ard Al Zaafaran
I Am The Queen by Ard Al Zaafaran is a light, feminine musky floral with prominent cherry and citrus notes, creating a sweet yet airy impression. The scent opens with a fresh, fruity burst of cherry and bergamot, evolving into a delicate bouquet of white flowers, rose, and orange blossom, all wrapped in a soft, powdery musk. It carries a clean, refined character that is both wearable and non-aggressive, making it ideal for day use in spring and summer. Longevity is moderate to strong, especially on clothing, and sillage is notably strong—more than average—though it never feels overwhelming. Several users highlight its strong initial projection, which acquaints the wearer with a powdery, textured aura reminiscent of both Erba Pura and Ana Abiyedh, but with a more accessible price point.
