Swans

so the notes listed here are inaccurate, or at least incomplete. not sure why fragrantica can’t get that right, i know for a fact there’s a fantasy feather note. this fragrance is floating, aquatic, ethereal, dreamy. it lasted for daysss on a test strip and i’m excited to wear it on my skin

I paid an exorbitant amount of money for a 1ml and now I can't have it. WHYYYYYYYY... Needless to say, DM me if you're looking to sell.

Sweet floral musk. Delicate and smoothly blended. Not groundbreaking but very pleasant to wear. Office safe.

A much more sophisticated and better executed Glossier You. If Glossier you is warm, then Swans leans on the cooler side. The musk is nose-tingling fuzzy and the iris extremely powdery, while the muget gives it some much-needed airyness in the opening. High quality materials and excellent blending. I definitely understand the vision - I can envision Swans delicately floating on sun-sparkling waters when I close my eyes and smell this. While I really do enjoy it, I don't think it justifies the price unfortunately. It's very light and a second-skin type scent. If they ever released this in their 75ML format, I'd absolutely consider it then. Rating: 7/10

Starchy, powdery musk. I don’t find it at all aquatic, fruity, or fresh. If it’s floral, then the flowers are made out of frosted glass and smell like nothing. I actually feel that Swans is a fairly stiff fragrance. Less of the white t-shirt described in the marketing, and more a white button-up tailored to perfection. I’m too much of a messy eater to wear the shirt as well as Swans, tho I revere and adore the individual who would find themselves in this stoic, translucent, and charmingly uptight perfume. Very similar to Musc K, but less sweet and less paper-y.
