Alfa Monte has done an excellent job creating a unique fragrance that is just the right amount of feminine with Velvet Queen for women. The top notes of mandarin orange and bergamot combine perfectly with rose, patchouli and amber for a scent that is powerful and alluring. This long-lasting fragrance is great for a mature date night. It is a perfect choice to wear to a gala, art museum or formal event.

Velvet Queen opens with a veritable roar of patchouli. It is that very clean patchouli that is in everything lately, and that only vaguely recalls the patchouli oil that once perfumed your local head shop. It stays on the scene for the duration, but the original burst does quiet, gradually revealing the citrus (juicy and mildly sweet) and a sheer floral blend dominated by rose. The base is what is left of the patchouli, plus some musky woods and a touch of amber. It is subtly sweetened by the vanilla, and as the florals fade, the slightest tinge of something fruity, but it stays more dry than not. In fact, it is surprisingly dry for something apparently geared towards the youth market.
