About

Poise opens with a sparkling fusion of bergamot and cherry - a bright citrus-fruit combination that gives an alluring, slightly spiced-sweet first impression distinct from Yardley's more straightforwardly fresh openings. The heart intertwines orange blossom, rose and jasmine into a radiant white-floral bouquet, giving the fragrance genuine floral richness and a sense of refined elegance in keeping with the 'Poise' name. The base is the most structured element: patchouli, cedarwood and vetiver combine for a sophisticated, earthy-woody finish that lends the composition an oriental-floral character with real depth, a step up in complexity from Yardley's simpler single-note florals. Described by the brand as capturing 'the essence of joy' and suited to women who appreciate 'refined elegance and glamour,' Poise is positioned as one of the more grown-up, oriental-leaning entries in Yardley's current EDP lineup, alongside its darker sibling Poise Noire.
