THE SWAN’S ETERNAL VOW: A MEDIEVAL TALE OF LOVE AND PURITY

In the misty landscapes of Medieval folklore, few symbols carry as much poetic weight as the Swan. A creature of dual worlds—water and air—the swan has long been the herald of “Fin’amor” (Courtly Love). It represents a love that is transcendental, fiercely loyal, and breathtakingly pure. Today, we invite you to explore our latest fragrance collection: “The Swan’s Vow“, where the ethereal beauty of the white feathers meets the deep, enduring passion of medieval romance.

The Legend of the Swan Knight

During the 12th century, the legend of the Knight of the Swan (Chevalier au Cygne) captivated the royal courts of Europe. It told the story of a mysterious hero who appeared in a boat drawn by a silver swan to rescue a lady in distress. This tale cemented the swan as a symbol of protection and chivalrous love.

In medieval heraldry, the swan was a “noble bird,” often reserved for those of royal blood. To wear the scent of the swan is to evoke the atmosphere of a silent, moonlit lake outside a stone castle, where vows were whispered in secret and love was considered the highest form of alchemy.

The Olfactory Journey: White Feathers and Ancient Woods

Creating a perfume that embodies both “Love” and “The Swan” required a delicate balance of airy lightness and grounded depth. This collection is designed to capture the “vibe” of a medieval garden at dawn.

• The Top Notes (The Flight): To mimic the cool air of a lakeside morning, we utilize White Aldehydes and Water Lily. It is crisp, clean, and ethereal, evoking the sight of white wings unfolding against a gray sky.
• The Heart Notes (The Romance): At the core lies White Rose and Iris. In the Middle Ages, the white rose symbolized spiritual love and secrecy (Sub Rosa). The powdery elegance of Iris adds a “velvet” texture, reminiscent of the soft down feathers of a swan’s neck.
• The Base Notes (The Vow): Love in the medieval sense was meant to be eternal. Therefore, we use White Musk, Ambergris, and Sandalwood. These ingredients provide a warm, skin-like finish that lingers for hours, representing the lasting bond between two souls.

A Unisex Masterpiece of Grace

While the swan is often associated with feminine grace, our collection is strictly Unisex. In medieval times, beauty was not gendered. A knight’s grace was as celebrated as a lady’s elegance. “The Swan’s Vow“ is for anyone who seeks a fragrance that is both “Cold” (majestic and distant) and “Warm” (intimate and loving). It is a scent for the dreamers, the poets, and those who believe that true romance never fades—it only evolves.

Why “The Swan’s Vow” Belongs in Your Collection

In an era of fast-paced trends, this collection is an anchor to the past. It is a reminder to slow down, to love deeply, and to carry oneself with the silent dignity of a swan. Whether you are walking through a modern city or a quiet park, this fragrance surrounds you with an aura of mystery and nobility.
