About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Launched in 2005, McQueen by Alexander McQueen is a powdery oriental floral that opens with Parma violet and sweet almond, immediately setting a soft, nostalgic tone. The heart weaves heliotrope, white musk, white flowers, and orange blossom into a creamy, slightly sweet bouquet. The base of iris, vanilla, patchouli, cedar, and vetiver adds earthy depth and a dry, woody finish that lingers close to the skin. This is a fragrance for collectors who appreciate vintage-style powdery compositions with a modern edge. It suits those who enjoy violet and almond accords, and works well for evening wear or cooler months when its warmth and complexity can be fully appreciated.
中文簡介

Price ranges are compiled from our own recorded transactions, not from asking prices.
A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
