Natural lemons & herbs create a refined British blend, elegantly enveloped by classic flowers, woods & mosses.

It's definitely very unique. The older version, Lords, was so strong that you could easily scent an entire subway car just by getting in and out quickly.

I find the labdanum here quite special, as it is noticeably present in this classic theme.

I had it briefly under my nose, but I couldn't test it properly.

The artificial portraits from the house are a joke compared to this:
British understatement at its finest!
Lavender, lemon, and basil are all there in the top notes-really delicious and classic like an aromatic foug猫re.
The lily of the valley and sandalwood are also great underneath and hit the right spot for me.
The metallic geranium and resinous labdanum give the fresh notes an interesting edge. The neroli isn鈥檛 too 4711 either.
A bit of soapy moss and musk at the base, not too creamy.
Overall, it鈥檚 a success, and as many have already said, very British indeed!
Thanks to Yatagan for the testing opportunity.
