See What People Think

Part of the prestigious Serpent Collection, The Queen and the Viper draws inspiration from the legendary story of Cleopatra. Ancient tales whisper of the Egyptian queen's final moments - whether through the bite of a viper or a deliberately consumed venom potion. This oriental woody masterpiece by Stéphane Humbert Lucas and Karine Chevallier captures that intoxicating blend of danger and seduction, opening with an electrifying fusion of bergamot, incense, and spearmint before revealing a heart of osmanthus and jasmine sambac. The base unfolds into a mesmerizing tapestry of tobacco, dates, and labdanum - a scent as powerful and enigmatic as Cleopatra herself.
