Which Should You Buy?
This Yardley Lily of the Valley is a proper love-it-or-hate-it scent. Some swear it's the real deal, a natural, clean lily of the valley for a great price. Others reckon it's a weak, synthetic mess that doesn't smell like the flower at all. Tread carefully.
No. 799 is a self-described House blend rather than a dupe of a single named original - it plays a soft peony-violet-berry floral against a clean white musk, delivering an easy, everyday soft-floral rather than chasing any specific designer scent.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and subtle nature makes it ideal for casual wear or the office, where it won't overpower. The generally weak longevity, which many reviewers note, reduces its suitability for longer events like dates or formal occasions, while its green freshness could work for light activity.
Seasons
The soft floral-fruity profile suits spring and summer daytime wear best; too light and delicate to register in colder months.
Occasions
Its gentle, unobtrusive character fits office and casual settings well; lacks the presence for date nights or formal events.
