Soapy Lily
I actually wanted to test Crabtree & Evelyn's Lily of the Valley, but it looks to have been replaced in 2011 with this fragrance. The sales lady in the store tried to convince me that Lily was very similar to the old Lily of the Valley. I can't draw any conclusions until I sample them both, however I can say that Lily is a very pleasant white floral.
It's quite a lush, green floral scent on the skin. Absolutely perfect for the Spring weather, especially when paired with a pretty sundress. I think a lot of women will fall in love with Crabtree & Evelyn's Lily. It's undoubtedly feminine and clean.
Whenever I wear Lily it makes me feel refreshed and carefree. It's a good fragrance to turn to when you can't decide what else to wear. To my nose, it smells rather soapy, which isn't such a bad thing. It makes me think of those luxurious, creamy soaps that are often too expensive to buy. The ones that lather well, and leave the skin lightly scented after a bath or shower. Crabtree & Evelyn's Lily is kind of like those exclusive soaps. There's a certain element of luxury to be enjoyed.
The composition can be a little linear at times. Lily of the valley is the most dominant accord, followed by some green notes, white musk and ylang ylang. Like I mentioned before, the entire blend is quite floral and soapy.
Despite the fact that Lily is as light as a feather on the skin, the longevity isn't half bad, however it does struggle to last over eight hours. I rather enjoy spending time in Crabtree & Evelyn stores, and I love the country atmosphere that the brand has created. Their line of soliflores are well worth exploring.
