Diplomat by day, Conqueror by night. This one-of-a- kind fragrance glimpses the extravagant and mysterious life of the legendary Empress of Russia – Catherine the Great. Catherine the Great remains one of the most important and truly fascinating rulers of the Russian Empire. Her diplomatic pursuits, intelligence and determination are well documented, no more so than her boudoir conquests. As with any great leader, her legacy is punctuated by fact and fiction. Most accounts are indeed true, but many are simply hearsay, murmuring in hallways, now urban legend. It is widely accepted that Catherine the Great’s love of glory was equal only to her love of men. Catherine the Great led Russia into a period of great prosperity. The Empress’ reign is often referred to as the Golden Age of the Empire. Her sovereignty was adorned with great achievements whilst her daily political pursuits were in constant turmoil and her private life provoked endless scandal. The Empress’ accomplishments can be attributed to her enlightenment, perseverance and passion for life and conquest. She lived her life to the fullest, and her lifestyle was luxurious to the point of excess, indulging in extravagancies few could rival and living out her wildest fantasies. Senyokô’s La Tsarine portrays Catherine the Great’s most notable characteristics in equal measure – her power, intellect and diplomacy as a ruler and her intimacy, confidence and licentiousness as a lover. Both facets of her personality are beautifully balanced in this conceptually bold and shockingly divisive fragrance.’ – Senyoko
