Salty-Sweet Gourmand Fragrances

Queens Caramel by Ellis Brooklyn Plays with Caramel & Pink Salt

Queens Caramel may be Ellis Brooklyn’s most decadent fragrance to date and the bottle's gradient finish hints at two of its most prominent notes, caramel and pink salt. This salty-sweet scent is the answer to founder Bee Shapiro asking, "How do you make gourmand feel elevated and expensive?"

This perfume opens with rich, indulgent sweetness from caramel, honey, and maple, melting together with a hint of salt that adds unexpected depth. As Queens Caramel settles, creamy white chocolate and coconut unfold over soft floral notes, creating a warm, dessert-like heart. The dry-down is smooth and sensual, anchored by tonka bean, amber, and musk for a lingering, cozy finish. Even in the heat of summer, people find themselves anticipating the comforting embrace of wearing this fragrance in the fall.
