Worth a try

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Worth a try. That is where Gone Swimming lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Afternoon Swim.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Afternoon Swim's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: mandarin orange, sicilian orange and bergamot up top, ginger in the middle, ambergris underneath — the shape of Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim.

Top

  • mandarin orange
  • sicilian orange
  • bergamot

Heart

  • ginger

Base

  • ambergris
Orange and ginger over salt-slick ambergris, fizzing and cold, a pool at four in the afternoon.
