If I ever met Beyoncé, I'm pretty sure I would faint with excitement. But once I came to, I'd need to know one thing: What does she smell like? Unfortunately, I likely won't be meeting Beyoncé anytime soon. However, I have discovered her scent of choice, so I'm sure I'll get over it.

While in London for the Renaissance tour, Beyoncé was spotted at British luxury retailer Harrods. She visited the store's Kilian Paris boutique, where she stocked up on her favorite perfume—Kilian Paris Angels' Share.

It makes sense that Beyoncé would gravitate toward a scent like Kilian Paris Angels' Share. The warm and spicy scent pays homage to Kilian Hennessy's heritage. He hails from the famed cognac-producing family (yes, that Hennessy). The name of the perfume comes from a well-known term cognac producers use to refer to the liquor that evaporates during the aging process.

Angels' Share is infused with the essence of cognac, which gives it a natural caramel color. The nose of this perfume is heady cognac oil, and it opens up to reveal warm notes like oak, cinnamon, Tonka bean, sandalwood, praline, and vanilla. Leave it to Beyoncé to choose a perfume that smells good enough to eat. 

Opening with cognac oil, upon a blend of oak absolute, cinnamon essence, and Tonka bean absolute, the scent's long-lasting notes of sandalwood, praline, and vanilla make for a delicious finish, a rare concoction only angels should experience.
