Elizabeth Arden Pretty is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Claude Dir. Pretty opens with Mandarin, Orange Blossom, and Peach, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Iris, Peony, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, and Amber. Elizabeth Arden's Pretty carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This one's a safe bet for a reason. Elizabeth Arden's 'Pretty' is exactly what it says on the tin: a universally pleasing, fresh floral that hits the sweet spot between gentle and noticeable. It's not groundbreaking, but it's genuinely lovely and affordable.

About

Opening with a sweet, bright burst of mandarin and peach, this fragrance quickly blossoms into a beautiful heart of white florals. Peony and jasmine take centre stage, joined by soft iris and lily, creating a delicate bouquet that's fresh and clean. The dry down introduces subtle woody notes, a hint of amber warmth, and a comforting musk that lingers softly on the skin.
