The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2006 by Estée Lauder, Pure White Linen is a floral aldehyde fragrance that captures the essence of freshness and elegance. Created by perfumers Sophie Labbé and Yves Cassar, this composition opens with green notes and grapefruit, bringing an invigorating brightness to the senses. The heart of freesia, apple, pear, and jasmine provides a delicate floral bouquet, while the base notes of cedar, white heliotrope, and patchouli add warmth and depth. This fragrance is a proof of Estée Lauder's commitment to blending modernity with lasting elegance.
Apply one or two sprays to pulse points. The bright citrus notes are prominent initially but give way to the floral heart within an hour. This fragrance works best during cooler weather when its warmth can be fully appreciated.
