White Shoulders

White Shoulders by Elizabeth Arden is a timeless floral aldehyde fragrance that has enchanted wearers for decades. Originally crafted in 1945 by Evyan, this iconic scent has been lovingly preserved and reimagined under Elizabeth Arden's stewardship. The fragrance opens with a fresh and sparkling blend of aldehydes, African orange flower, green notes, peach, and bergamot, creating a light and uplifting introduction. At its heart lies a lush bouquet of white florals, including gardenia, lilac, tuberose, jasmine, lily, and lily-of-the-valley, which come together to evoke the image of a blooming spring garden. The addition of iris adds a soft, powdery elegance, while a hint of spices lends depth and intrigue.

The base notes of civet, oakmoss, musk, benzoin, sandalwood, and amber provide a warm and sensual foundation, balancing the floral brightness with a creamy, earthy richness. This combination creates a fragrance that feels both nostalgic and enduringly sophisticated. White Shoulders is celebrated for its clean, soapy floral character, with a touch of sweetness that makes it perfect for spring and summer occasions. Whether worn during the day or for an evening event, it wraps the wearer in an aura of grace and femininity.

A true classic, White Shoulders is more than just a perfume—it’s a piece of history that continues to captivate with its vintage charm and timeless elegance. It’s a fragrance that evokes memories of a bygone era while remaining relevant for modern wearers who appreciate the beauty of a well-crafted floral scent.
