The women's fragrance Estee Lauder White Linen has become an example of naturalness, which surprises with its discreet, delicate, and fresh scent. Bearing in mind the business-style of women from a large metropolis, each of its notes is selected with taste. This eau de parfum does not try to come to the fore, it perfectly copes with its complementing role, emphasizing the good taste of a woman.
The floral-aldehydic composition reveals on the skin a scent of summer aromatic apricot and a fragrant garden plum; a juicy peach with green splashes provide special summer freshness. Jasmine, lily of the valley, and rose in the "heart" deliver sweetish coolness, velvety tenderness, light moisture, and softness. All the femininity of the fragrance is concentrated here. Musk and amber give a light, heady white wine and slightly dryish balsamic notes, and ensure persistence of the sillage. In addition, earthy vetiver, tart white cedar, and osmanthus are revealed here, which somewhat resembles the aroma of prunes.

Heart note: carnation, iris, jasmine, hyacinth, ylang-ylang, rose, lily of the valley, violet, lilac, orchid, iris
Base note: vetiver, sandalwood, white cedar, amber, benzoin, tonka beans, honey, oakmoss

It's a good thing I didn't read the comments before purchasing))) It has an incredible scent... kind of a retro feel (to my nose), but so pleasant. For me, the dominant note here is Lily, which for some reason smelled like lilacs from the beginning of application. I never liked Lily in fragrances, but thanks to this scent, I fell in love.
Very cheap scent. Smells like a Soviet men's hair salon.
During the first test, I was completely amazed. How can something be worn like this? It gave me a couple of weeks of peace with its scent... And then the magic happened... I closed my eyes, took a breath... And found myself in snowy mountains... The freezing, pure air. A small wooden house... The hostess takes off a freshly washed linen tablecloth from the clothesline, brings it inside, and places it on the wooden table. The aroma of damp, clean fabric mixed with field herbs... The beauty is indescribable.
I purchased this product accidentally, without testing it beforehand, and I do not regret it. I love such fragrances that make you feel like you are holding a strand of wild field grass in your fingers. It reminds me a lot of Chanel 19. The longevity is incredible. Thank you Makeup for the very decent gift with this purchase.
Favorite perfume...forever.
Great classic fragrance as it is, fresh and crystal-clear, in our reality, perfectly unisex. It is appropriate always and everywhere, whether you like it or, on the contrary, don't like Chanel No. 5 - try White Linen. It unfolds slowly, in the beginning I can smell lemon and a little unripe peach-apricot, then my nose catches the solo of hyacinth. And if you disregard all of this, you won't be able to figure out what it smells like, you have to try it!! It's a kind of a collective image of spring flowers, vibrant and clean. I like it!
I am disappointed with the scent, it is completely different from the White Linen freight scent. I will no longer be ordering perfumes from make up.
I would like to add to the previous comment that the perfume has settled and sounds different now. It lasts for 5-6 hours. The only thing is that the scent is very intense, so you need to apply it sparingly. I recommend, once again, that you should test it out.
As always, I bought it based on the description. Overall, it's not bad, but the lasting power is average. I'm not entirely sure about the scent, there's a note that doesn't sound pleasant to me from beginning to end. I'll put it aside for now, maybe it will grow on me. I recommend testing it out.
Excellent vintage scent. I don't understand why it's not chypre, there is oakmoss, there is soapiness, there is development. If you immediately evaluate the fragrance, it will be "triple cologne," you need to wait for a couple of days for it to settle and breathe. I currently have vintage White Linen in miniature and I bought it here. So there are few differences, vintage sits closer to the skin and slightly more matured, but it seems less synthetic, more natural. Well, that's psychology, in my opinion. All these are chemical molecules, extracts, and so on, there is nothing scary here. I like the new version of the fragrance much more. At first, it's like expensive soap, opening with cloves and white floral notes. Pleasant lily of the valley, it sounds vintage, but this is one of the most beautiful ones I've heard. Hyacinth is laid for a long time. Mood: aristocratic perfume, walking in a linen dress in your Park Avenue apartment, watering your houseplants)) I like it, it's in its own style, you definitely need to love vintage.
I bought this perfume as a gift for my mom, and the price was quite high for a fragrance. Nevertheless, I decided to purchase it so that my mom could have her favorite fragrance from the 90s again. However, she found them to be completely different and didn't like them at all. She said that the scent vaguely reminded her of the original, but it wasn't the same.
I tried using it myself. Well, I must say that the first impression was like a cheap cologne, but then the base notes were actually quite nice and expensive-smelling, and it lasted a long time. However, it seemed like only the base notes were present, and I wanted to enjoy the fragrance at all stages. On the other hand, my aunt really liked it, and it lasted a long time on her clothing. Overall, I would give it 3 stars because we were expecting something else and the gift didn't turn out as expected.
This fragrance is unique and unlike anything else. I can detect the scent of incense, even though it's not actually present.
I bought these perfume as a gift for my mom, as a repeat of her favorite fragrance from the 90s. In the end, my mom said they were completely different and didn't resemble her beloved scent in her subjective perception. Surprisingly, the initial notes are very heavy and reminiscent of triple cologne. I offered them to my grandmother (she liked it) and discovered that after using half the bottle, it became softer. The base of this perfume is very long-lasting and quite delicate, while the top notes are heavy and sharp. The scent lingers on clothes for up to a week and is actually pleasant due to this base.
The scent does not match the original from the 20th century!!! It doesn't last at all.
The smell is terrible.
In my opinion, the fragrance is terrible and heavy, with a sharp scent. I'm not sure who it's intended for, honestly... I couldn't detect any herbal notes in it. And it definitely doesn't seem suitable for spring or summer, despite what the reviews say. I've heard of a completely different White Linen fragrance. It's not at all what I was expecting. I am extremely disappointed with this purchase. It's a waste of money.
отзыв о продукте. В нем присутствуют ароматы трав, липких молодых почек деревьев и ветивера, однако я совсем не ощущаю запах цветов. Этот продукт - очень необычный.
