I am a Swifty, some things you don't think you'll ever type and yet here we are. I call out anyone who says they don't find at least one of her songs catchy. I'm calling you out bro, loud and clear. As much as I enjoy listing to Taylor Swift I truthfully never imagined I'd like nor wear one of her fragrance offerings. In fairness I am not a huge fan of celebrity eau de anything - they tend to be very samey and overly sweet, well not Taylor Swift Incredible Things Eau de Parfum.
First of all can we talk about the bottle? A pretty, watercolour splashed design that is bright, cheerful yet not gaudy - at least that is my opinion. Yes it is most likely targeted at teens but it somewhat reminds me (in terms of design) of the limited edition Clinique Happy in Bloom bottles?
Taylor Swift Incredible Things Eau de Parfum may surprise you, it is not a sugary sweet scent nor is it overly floral - it almost and I say almost, rings a little masculine. It is unexpected and dare I say it more grown up than her previous launches. Creamy with hints of vanilla and musk yet mellowed out with woody accords and hints of white amber and pink pepper. It is clean, sharp yet not at all overwhelming. I am really struggling to think of a comparison fragrance that is how different this is. If you are looking for a scent that is a break from the norm then I would highly recommend checking this out.

I really expected this to be a super sweet offering but I'm quite glad to hear that it's not! Despite loving a sweet perfume I'm trying to move away from those so will have to give this a sniff if I spot it in store. The bottle is just beautiful too, I kind of want to buy it just so I can tell people that I can show them incredible things...

I'm a massive Taylor Swift fan and I absolutely loved her Wonderstruck scent but this just sounds amazing! I'll definitely be checking this out :) xx
ReplyDeleteThis sounds wonderful and I just love her and her music too. I still haven't picked up a perfume but I just can't decide from all her fragrances but this one sounds amazing.

As much as I don't like celebrity perfumes usually, her Taylor by Taylor Swift perfume is so lovely. I'm going to have to check this one out- plus the packaging is lovely!

It sounds wonderful. The bottle is so pretty. Whilst I'm here I may as well, also, admit to being a swifty. In fact, I was rocking out to one of her tunes with my 3 year old a couple of hours ago. She's just so bloody gorgeous, and I love her style xx

I did not know that Taylor has a perfume out :p Looks so pretty but the fact that the scent is masculine and more on the strong side definitely screams Taylor :) She seems super sweet but I can sense that she has a fierce side. :)

I quite like the sound of this scent! The bottle is much nicer than her other ones, a bit more classy. Will have to see if I can find a tester in my local Boots xx

I completely expected this to be overly sweet and girly like the Wonderstruck perfume, but your description makes me really want to give this a try. The bottle is beautiful, much more 'grown up' than her previous scents.
