English Lavender

It was under the name “Yardley & Statham” that the house presented its products at the Great Exhibition of 1851. At first, Yardley only produced lavender soaps. It was at the beginning of the twentieth century that the house of Yardley ventured into perfumery. In 1913, the brand proudly presented English Lavender, an extraordinary fragrance.

English lavender takes center stage

English Lavender is far more than a simple essence. It can easily be said that it represents the soul of the English, a part of their history. Through its classicism, English Lavender showcases the house's ancestral know-how. English Lavender resembles a walk through lavender fields on a beautiful sunny day. Like the rest of the house's beauty product line, Yardley's fragrances are built around Angustifolia lavender, a quintessentially English lavender. The notes of this lavender are fine and elegant, its freshness particularly striking. In 2011, Yardley readjusted the composition of English Lavender, allowing it to align with the tastes of the 2000s, without taking anything away from its pure lavender soul.

The choice ingredients of English Lavender

Naturally, the composition of English Lavender is built around English lavender. However, other quality ingredients come to enhance and elevate this lavender. English Lavender opens with a fresh blend of citrus, featuring a citrus and orange accord. These notes are picked up by aromatic notes such as rosemary and sage. The heart is rich with English lavender, blended with the luminosity of orange blossom, as well as geranium, bringing a lovely touch of femininity. The base of English Lavender is woody and sensual, brimming with musks, sandalwood and tonka bean. The bottle is both classic and modern, mirroring the composition. It is harmonious, slender in shape, yet also clean-lined, while letting its pale violet-colored juice show through. Its silver-toned cap adds one final touch of elegance.

The house of Yardley celebrates English lavender in an original fragrance, English Lavender. The house's expertise delivers an original and extraordinary fragrance. Fresh and subtle, English lavender here represents part of England's treasures.
