FRAGRANCE STORIES
We have been capturing the delicate fragrance of flowers for 250 years, inspired by their incredible beauty and strength, just like the generations of women who have been wearing them. In celebration of what has been at the heart of Yardley London, we bring you the story behind some of our inspirational florals.
English Lavender
Lavender is well renowned for its relaxing effects, symbolising healing and rejuvenation. Yardley London's English Lavender fragrance evokes these same soothing properties by combining citrusy bergamot and warming clary sage with calming English Lavender, containing the highest quality Lavandula Angustifolia, harvested from the fields of Southern England.

English Rose
The pink rose is a flower and fragrance that is loved by women the world over, with Rose Oil being one of the most widely-used oils used in perfumery.
