Yardley April Violets Eau de Toilette 50ml is a quintessentially English violet-led floral, originally launched by the historic London perfumery in 1913 and continuously produced since. Built around the soft sweet-green character of violet, it's one of the most beloved single-flower fragrances in British perfumery — feminine, classical and timelessly polite.
About Yardley

Who it's for
Best for those who love quintessentially English floral perfumery — natural territory for fans of Penhaligon's Bluebell, Floris Stephanotis, or anyone who appreciates classic single-flower fragrances. The vanilla-and-musk drydown gives it a soft, slightly powdery character; the violet at the heart is the unmistakable signature. A thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates British perfumery heritage.
How to wear it
Spray onto pulse points — wrists, behind the ears, the base of the throat — from around 15 cm away. As an Eau de Toilette, expect moderate projection in the first hour and a soft floral skin scent for around four to six hours total.
