    Postwar Paris in a bottle, aldehydic sparkle giving way to spiced carnation and powdery warmth. Either the opening pulls you into its vintage embrace or you wait for the roses to arrive.L'Air du Temps
    This is the lily of the valley for people who find lily of the valley too much. Yardley stripped it down to the cool, clean, green core, no drama, no shouting.Lily Of The Valley Yardley
