Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

White Satin is a feminine Eau de Toilette from Yardley London, launched in 1984. Bergamot, lemon and orange open it with a fresh citrus lift. The heart is a classic white floral bouquet of rose, jasmine and lily of the valley. Sandalwood, amber and musk form a soft, warm, slightly powdery base. The style is traditional and gentle rather than modern or loud, and it suits daytime wear, special occasions and anyone who likes a nostalgic floral.
