Yardley London April Violets Body Spray 75ml is a softly perfumed daily mist built around the brand's heritage April Violets fragrance — one of Yardley's oldest signatures, originally launched in 1913. The body spray opens with green violet leaves and a sparkle of citrus, drifts into a heart of orris, mimosa, rose and white peach, and settles onto a powdery base of sandalwood and vanilla. A traditional English floral, refreshed in a modern, easy-to-wear format.
