Blazing Lily Alexander McQueen, launched in 2018, is marketed as a feminine fragrance, rooted in the aromatic and floral families. Perfumer Nicolas Beaulieu is the author behind this composition. The fragrance belongs to the floral, spicy, and whiteflower groups. The fragrance belongs to the McQueen collection. The fragrance concentration is eau de parfum.
The sillage is moderate — present, but never overpowering. Apply 1-2 sprays whether on skin or fabric — it works equally well either way. A couple of sprays will carry you through the whole day — longevity is firmly high. Behind this fragrance stands the United Kingdom and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The composition of Blazing Lily unfolds as a layered story, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The signature of Alexander McQueen comes through in the way notes appear and fade. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum sets the depth and body this composition needs.
In a unified mixed pyramid the opening appears as one connected movement with a inspiring floral mood: Floral Notes, Hot pepper, Lily and Powder.
The middle and base stages are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The olfactory framework is driven by these accords: Floral, Spicy and Mineral without random overlap. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which clarifies the composition character. In longevity terms High suggests confident staying power.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Floral, Spicy, Whiteflower and Fairy. It also reaches into Aromatic.
Overall Blazing Lily reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best judged on skin.
