Fragrance information:

In 1982, Yardley introduced Pure Silk — a fragrance that's hard to forget. A feminine fragrance rooted in the east and floral families.

The longevity is genuinely phenomenal: firmly in the very high range. Country of origin — the United Kingdom: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.

Some fragrances simply live on the skin — this one becomes part of it. The official website of Yardley — http://www.foersterandjohnsen.com.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Pure Silk unfolds as a layered story, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Yardley is clear in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction.

In the top tier you sense airy floral opening notes: Orange blossom and ylang-ylang. Exactly these 2 notes shape light sensuality that is impossible to miss.

When the opening settles you sense Jasmine and Rose holding a silky white floral direction. In the final layer the line is anchored through Oak moss, Patchouli and Vetiver, extending a earthy woody-resinous trail.

The accord profile is built around these accords: Floral and Wood without random overlap. The gender direction is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In wear duration Very high suggests confident staying power.

At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Whiteflower, Floral, Earthy / Mossy and Wood. It also reaches into Gourmet. At family level the scent maps to East and Floral.

Taken together Pure Silk holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best judged on skin.
