About This Perfume

English Laundry Riviera smells like Bright lemon and lime breeze, herbal woods. It opens with bergamot, cedar and lemon, moves into black pepper, blackcurrant and coumarin and settles on amyris, gaiac wood and oakmoss. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

This eau de toilette is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days and the office. Released in 2012.

In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
  • Sample first if: citrus is new territory for you.

Around $79.

The Brand

English Laundry

English Laundry is a British-heritage designer fragrance line built around fresh-woody, aromatic and gourmand pillars at accessible designer prices. The 19 live pieces on Scendira average .00, run strongly masculine (13 of 19) with a small feminine tail, and skew heavily Fresh (10) with Gourmand (3) support. Prices span $24.03-$120 (average $80). Standout live pieces: Oxford Bleu ($85,.27, cool mint and lemon with powdery floral fruit), Pink Brilliance ($90,.27, sweet berry coconut pudding with soft rose powder), Royal Forest ($73.55,.20, crisp apple and citrus with woody honeyed air), Propper Poppy ($30,.12, sweet fruit candy with a soft rose haze) and Crown ($64.80,.10, fresh citrus breeze with green herbs and lavender). The masculine range trades on cool-fresh-woody signatures reminiscent of British sartorial tradition.
