What does Swan smell like?

Swan is a light scent: both its longevity and its sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is worn mainly for leisure, daytime and the office. Voters mostly read it as feminine.

Bergamot brings a citrus and green freshness, while rose attar and iris give it a floral, powdery side. Sandalwood and vanilla settle it onto a woody, softly sweet base, with spicy and oriental touches in the background. Rania J. Musc Moschus and Nicolas de Barry Sissi Imperatrice have a close profile.
