Yardley London Royal Diamond is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Royal Diamond opens with Bergamot and Pear, settles into a heart of Rose, Lily Of The Valley, Peony, and Honey, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Benzoin. Yardley London's Royal Diamond carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

A properly lovely, fresh floral that punches well above its weight for the price. Just a shame about the fleeting performance, which is its one major drawback.

About

Royal Diamond opens with a bright and juicy sparkle of pear and bergamot, a fresh and inviting start. It swiftly transitions to a heart of delicate rose and lily of the valley, tempered by the honeyed sweetness of peony. This floral core is soft and well-rounded, never cloying. The base provides a gentle warmth with creamy sandalwood, grounding cedar, and a whisper of vanilla, ensuring a smooth and elegant finish that evokes walking through a blooming garden.
