English Rose

English Rose, a Classic Soft Rose

English Rose is a classic, gentle rose. Our version keeps that feel, opening with a lift of lemon before a soft rose heart settles over patchouli and musk.

The Story Behind the Scent

Yardley built English Rose around the timeless beauty of the English garden rose, soft and pretty rather than heavy. The idea was classic, gentle femininity.

That soft prettiness is its appeal. The lemon keeps it fresh, the rose stays gentle, and the patchouli and musk give it warmth. Our interpretation keeps that same classic character, with more staying power.
