Laura Ashley

This house is built around floral, green and white floral accords. Jasmine appears throughout the range, often lifted by peach and softened by musk. Sandalwood brings a woody base to many of the compositions, while powdery and aromatic facets turn up alongside the central florals.

Wearing something from this house tends to feel light and composed. The green freshness keeps the jasmine from becoming heavy, and the peach adds a gentle softness that sits close to the skin. Sandalwood grounds the blend so the florals do not drift, and the powdery finish gives the overall impression a smooth, settled character. Dilys shows how these elements come together in a single composition.
