Every July, milkweed blooms across Adirondack meadows and roadsides — dusky pink clusters humming with bees and monarch butterflies, scenting the warm air with something close to honey and clover.
We capture that moment in a milkweed tincture made in-house, soften it with ylang ylang and rosewood, then finish it with a creamy thread of vanilla. The result is a gentle, sun-warmed floral that wears close to the skin, like a meadow in full bloom.
Ingredient lists may change from time to time. Please refer to the list on the package you receive for the most up-to-date ingredients.
Spray or roll onto pulse points: wrists, inner elbows, the base of the throat and behind the ears.
Let it dry naturally. Rubbing your wrists together dulls the opening notes.
Botanical perfume sits close to the skin, so refresh every few hours or mist a scarf for longer wear.
Patch-test on a small area first. Avoid the eyes and broken or irritated skin.
Contains alcohol. Keep away from open flame.
Store capped, away from heat and direct sunlight.
I really love this perfume! Herbaceous at first, this scent dries down to a sweet, lemony fragrance that reminds me of lemon poundcake while maintaining its natural aroma. Great longevity too! I’ve had the full sized bottle for nearly a year and I’m not even a quarter of the way through, despite using it fairly often. One of my favorite perfumes ever :)
Bought a bottle of this beautiful perfume in blue mountain lake. Its soft, sensuous, lasts and people remark how pleasant it smells! Love having something special to wear.
Beautiful fragrance, I can really smell the quality in the Love that was put into this bottle.
Fresh, citrusy, with a kiss of vanilla and a dash herbal.
Customer service is top notch. Thank you so much!
I can't tell you how much my husband and I love your company.
I get feminine perfumes and he gets masculine. You have amazing quality and such care for your product. Thank you for sending free lilac lotion and a bar of soap previous to this recent purchase.
We are originally from NY and it knowing these products come from upstate make them even more special.
Love this perfume, this is my second bottle. This second batch has a little more of a “spicy” scent to it than the first one, but matches the notes of milkweed well.
I thought I already shared my delight in this fragrance already but just in case that review didn't get through, I adore how subtle and gentle this scent is on my skin. If I happen to pass my wrist near my face after applying it to my wrists, I catch the scent. As I act with others, making payments at the register or handing someone something, that scent follows my wrists and gives the other person a perfect dose of my mysteriously natural scent. I really do love this scent.
Im wearing it right now and it is heavenly. I didnt realize something called Milkweed could smell so good. Its very subtle and i put it it on my wrists. I talk with my hands, gesture really so the aroma ever so gently swaths through the air. Highly recommend to those who love natural fragrance that is not yelling out loud but whispers.
This is a lovely, delicate fragrance, reminds me of hiking on a beautiful trail during spring and summer. Starts out bright and citrus smelling and mellows out into a fresh, creamy, floral smell. This has quickly become a staple for me!
Unfortunately the cap was broken, though there was no damage to packaging. I put the remainder in another roller ball bottle. Really like the scent, had a sample before purchasing the roller ball.
I'm planning on wearing this perfume for my wedding day! Monarch butterflies are my favorite (I first found out about this perfume from Monarch Joint Venture's marketplace) and I'm getting married at a Botanical Garden, so our wedding theme is flowers and butterflies, so I wanted a unique, floral, feminine perfume for the day- and this is absolutely perfect!! It also smells amazing and totally unique compared to other perfumes I've tried! So excited to wear this for our special day, and it's all the more special to me for being a milkweed perfume. :)
LOVELY fragrance, I ordered it because indeed, the milkweed scent is one of my favorites! it is VERY lovely- and the fact that it is a roll-on oil? Even MUCH better than regular perfumes. I do not think I want to go without it now
Ok so this definitely needs time to mature and macerate. I love the scent and I think it smells wonderful, but my daughter immediately pointed out that she thinks it smells like fruit cereal, mostly fruity pebbles. A week later that smell is starting to dissipate, although I liked it from the start and told her to ignore it if she didn't love the smell of fruit cereal. Very pretty, lasted a few hours, definitely needs to rest after transit.
Besides the Sweetgrass, Milkweed is my new favorite! I tried the Discovery set and am slowly buying full size bottles. These are the best natural perfumes on the market!

FAQs
Everything you need to know about Milkweed Flower Artisan Perfume.
What does milkweed smell like?
Real milkweed blossom is light, honey-sweet and delicate in high summer. Our perfume opens on that note, then settles into vanilla and soft white florals. Most people describe the finished scent as warm and vanilla-forward.
Does milkweed perfume smell like the real flower?
It's an interpretation rather than a literal capture of the flower. The vanilla base is what most people notice first, and those who know the wild bloom often find it sweeter than expected. Try the Discovery Set or the roller before buying the spray.
What is a botanical perfume?
It's built from plant material rather than synthetics. Ours starts with a milkweed tincture, hand-picked botanicals steeped in alcohol for weeks, then blended with essential oils. Vegan, paraben-free and made in the Adirondacks.
How long does the perfume last?
The spray lasts roughly 3–8 hours and the roller 4–6. It sits close to the skin rather than projecting across a room. Applying to well-moisturised skin extends the wear.
What's the difference between the roller and the spray?
The 0.33oz roller gives 450+ applications and lasts 3–8 months. The 1oz spray gives about 300 sprays and suits daily wear. Same blend in both, so the roller is the safer first buy.
