Pure White Linen Pink Coral Estée Lauder for women

I am a romantic at heart, and this is one of the most romantic fragrances I know. It smells "pink" without just smelling like roses. It is not "provoking", but that does not mean it cannot stir up emotions! For me, it reminds me of the romantic I am inside, the side I rarely show to people.

I find PWLPC quite similar in feeling to Elizabeth Arden's Pretty and Ralph Lauren's Romance, and I guess one of those will have to be the replacement when my bottle is emptied, if it is true that it has already been discontinued.

Very young, fresh and feminine

I wanted to love the whole (Pure) White Linen serie, or at least one of them. Maybe my nose has not yet grown enough to appreciate them... maybe it never will, as they smell to me like plastic doll from a previous generation of toys, the ones that seldom little girls had and would hold on to for dear life while running away and hiding from the bombs. Same goes for Splendor by Elizabeth Arden and Forever by Alfred Sung. Which common note (or combination of notes) is it that triggers those painful images in my mind?
I am having a lot of trouble with these and stay away from them, even though something really attracts me to them...

cool, fresh and soft.
perfect for summer.

similar with CK enternity Moment

Pure White Linen Pink Coral is very soft, if I could touch it, it would feel like cotton. But the pink pepper gives it a nice sharpness. It's slightly fresh but it's not the freshness you usually get from blue fragrances. This is pink freshness, it's like a morning in a garden full of flowers.
On my skin the flowers tend to be more on the sour side and not sweet. This is nice and light perfume. And what a lovely bottle!

It's one of my favourite for summer!!! I love it...

fresh fresh fresh . like a summerwind thrue the garden , the flowers . linger in the air. tha Pink pepper gives it a little kick .. very nice and easy to wear.
I can not smell anything of the Vanilla.

Being simple and clean, Pink Coral is a very nice summer fragrance. It's wearable, I can't imagine anyone being offended by it. It's not groundbreaking, if you're looking for a unique fragrance, be warned, this is not. But it nice and safe, appropriately fresh and flowery.

The opening is a spicy, floral mess I can't understand. The pepper makes it smell as if there was cilantro somewhere in there... but I think that is the flowers & pepper combo.

The middle turns soapy and holds that thought for a while...

The drydown is powdery florals. I wish I got some vanilla, but I'm just not able to find it.

I'm glad I got to try it first. I almost bought this blind because it's found inexpensively. I was looking for a simple, elegant, not-in-the-mood-for-perfume type of fragrance. One that isn't so bold, like most of my wardrobe tends to be. But I guess I should stick to what is "me" because settling for boring isn't "me" either.

Thanks to guusje who recomended this to me ( and she really has good taste) I went into the store and tried this one..I did not like the opening much, but in the next 10-15 mins, OMG...just wonderfull..the first feeling I had was that it is so youthfull..happy, warm and cozy..in a word, just wonderful! I had to go back the second day and buy myself a bottle:))

The little seahorse on the bottle is sooo cute i do love this quare puristic bottle and the frosted glass!!! so i had to purchase it unsiffed.
well, to me it didn t smell mutch vanilla. more clean crisp and fresh, flowery and little powdery, not sweet, even maybe a little bit sour... though!?

finally i gave it to my mother in law because i didn t liked it that mutch to use it for me for some lack of a special 'attitude'.

to me it smells very mature somehow and i'm in my 40's... don t get me wrong, i don t speak about outdated stuff. it is a nice scent, well done, but it's just 'nice' and something remembered me to the smell of elder ladies than me such as those who do love to wear White Linen and Pleasures... scents of openminded middle-aged lady with good taste in sportiv-elegant clothes, always well dressed and styled.

well my mother in law loves it and it suits her very well indeed! so she kept my bottle.

i m happy now with my cute little mini of it :)

How fast perfumes come and go. On the market in '09 and it is already discontinued this year.

Anyway, about the perfume. This is a sweety floral scent that is fairly noticable. Not too strong, but as you move about your day, you get a nice line of sweetness here and there.

I really like this. After all this time, I am still a floral person. This is floral, a bright and sweet floral at that.

One thing that strikes me is how sanitized these types of perfumes are. There is not a hint of layer or depth here, there is nothing hiding in the composition that will challenge or even--gasp-offend anyone. I guess most like to smell scrubbed and sanitized. I suppose most perfumes today are going to be like this. It is just a sweet floral that will make you smell pretty.

It's casusal and in the same time elegant, romantic - that's a good word to describe it. It smells of a beautiful bouquet of flowers - very floral and very delicate.

I wear the original and I can say that it's the best from all the collecton!

It's hard for me to understand why anyone might hate EL PURE WHITE LINEN PINK CORAL, for it is an eminently unobtrusive shampoo/conditioner floral frag. This could be safely "gifted"--say, in a workplace "secret Santa" scheme designed to bring the staff together--to basically any acquaintance who washes her hair. And then re-gifted, should the recipient find it too nondescript.

Why, oh why, is this a WHITE LINEN flanker? is the only real question that this composition generates in my mind. The notes are all blended together to form an inoffensive, if banal, blob. So perhaps it does not matter that on the manufacturer-produced card accompanying my sample vial the components are listed as these:

"sea-kissed apple blossoms"
"waterfruits"
sweet peas
"camelias blushed with honeysuckle and sandalwood"

Say what?

I just bought this perfume today. And like it very much. I have sampled this a few times to make sure I wanted it.
Its a floral perfume with a spicy kick to it. That comes from the pink pepper. it ends in a sweet smell that lasts all day.

One of my fav summer scents

I agree that this one is the best of the collection. I think it's a lovely fragrance, quite interesting, but it's too sweet for me. Anyway, if you like clean and sweet fragrances, this could be the right one.

The best of the White Linens in my opinion. I find the majority of them sterile, this is more a floral fruity. Nice, not exceptional and a good day fragrance.

Totally boring flanker. Pure White Linen is the only one to bother with.

Went to go and test it today and I LOVE IT! Can't stop smelling my wrist. Very light and just delicious. Nothing there to offend anyone. Would love to buy it RIGHT NOW, but 30ml will set me back approximately $64.00 (converted from SA Rand.) A little too much 2 days before payday :-) A must for floral junkies like me.

It is a month later and I've gone to "test" this several times since my original review. As much as I love this fragrance I must now confess that it doesn't suit my body chemistry. I detect a slightly sour note. As sad as this makes me I'm going to have to let this one go.

I love this perfume! It smells so soft and clean.

Beautiful, light,youthful,elusive,pure,fresh with sweet note, clean, I adore this perfume.

It makes me happy!!! I always get compliments from a lot of people.

It is just gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!

soft and balanced ! it suits my style and freshens the mood ! love the tones and use it regularly since whole last year :)

im usually not a fan of pink'ish perfumes but gotta say: love it! its like fresh linnen blanket hangin outside of a window on a sunny day next to a floral bouquet! totally great lasting power as well! i can still smell it on my wrist
definatly worth my money.. im seriously thinkin about getting it already ^.^
it's one of the best from lauder i smelled :-)

This fragrance seems to be either a love it or hate it scent.

I personally like it, which is strange because I'm rarely a fan of Estee Lauder scents. Pink Coral is refreshing and delicate. A soapy floral to say the least.

I'm often bothered by Estee Lauder scents being too strong and too synthetic, but Pink Coral is quite light and although not completely natural smelling, it is bearable.

This is a relatively linear fragrance, I didn't notice much of a change between the opening and the drydown. I find it to be a nice and rather pleasant blend of subdued flowers and a hint of watery freshness. The beachy and Summery aspect conveyed in the advertisement is very true to the fragrance itself.

Not a particularly mind-blowing scent, but pretty none-the-less.

Eeep! Peaches and lemons!

Sharp and light, great for a washing powder scent, and gone within half an hour. Tempting at the first sniff, a disappointment all the way home!

The pink pepper notes are very strong at the begging and carry on after the dry down till the very end, just dominate the whole scent....it is like the smell of dry flowers which is pretty annoying.

Love it so much...very long lasting staying power even under the sun whole day..I will give a credit to it.

NO NO NO!
I feel only some annoying powder.i'm totaly disapointed:-(

didn't like it at all. just another too strong, sweet&vanilla-based, i-can't-get-it-off-my-wrist smell. can't find anything "airy" about it. uggh!

Yes I found a good priced shop! After a long search on the internet I finaly found Pink Coral... Just orderd at www.parfumwebshop.nl ...can t wait till I get this perfume and spray it on in the weekend when I go out whit friends :)

gave it a try last weekend and didn't like it. i don't know if it's because i don'd like estee lauder perfumes in general or if this perfume is way to strong... in a cheap way...

I tried it in the city last weekend and I loved it! Have always used Estee Lauder.... I am looking for a (internet)shop where I can get a discount in the Netherlands. Didn't found one yet... Adiction to parfum can be expensive, so have to watch the prices.....

A perfect fresh floral for spring and summer. I can also smell a fruity trace within an hour of application. Red, juicy apples. Very long lasting on my skin. Wonderful, clean and crispy.

this is already out? I still haven't seen this here! :(

i love it very much..immediately bought it when i first tried the perfume at Estee Lauder counter!
AAA++

I totally agree with alicektn. I tried it yesterday and I can't remember how it smelled anymore because it wasn't unique at all. Somwhow fresh, fruity, airy and very usual. My expectations were very high since I really appreciate Pure White Linen Light Breeze, but this one is a bit of a disappointment.

I tried it this weekend and I was quite surprised by it. Its a nice smell, somewhat safe and non offensive, perfect for office use.

Its seems to have great syllage and staying power for such a fragrance, a deceptive innocent scent.

I loved the combination of the pink peper and apple blosson on my skin, warmed up by the vanilla and sandalwood.

Perfect gift for Valentine's day when in doubt...

I had quite an agony to try this scent, since I like Pure white linen a lot. It has been brought somewhat early in my country,so I was able to smell the content of this pretty, classy bottle.

It's a peaceful scent, from start to finish. I couldn't detect it's seperate notes, but I think it's better described as "Floral fruity". Not at all similar to Pure white linen.

Anyway, in my opinion it is not a very unique perfume.And certainly not a memorable one. Someone would easily confuse it with something else. It also contains a chemical "note" that annoys my nostrils a little bit. I was rather dissapointed...I don't want to be a hoodoo, but I believe this is a fragrance that will soon be discontinued.

Of course women who like simple, airy, "clean", and above all acceptable fragrances, will appreciate it. It's easy to wear, and non offensive for sure.
