White Linen Breeze Estée Lauder for women

I like this Breeze version better than the original White Linen.

One summer in a bottle. When I first saw its advertisment I imagined how it smells. I was sure it would be like it. I bought it without even testing it. And yes, it smelled exactly as I imagined. Airy, salty, sea-like. Feminine, yet strong and descent. Clean and clear. A summer in the city, long walks alone by the sea in the sunrise...I wore it with love, having won a great battle, the achievement of making peace with myself and getting self-confidence. A summer with a new, good friend, me...That's why I love it so much. Always in my heart...

Musty, cloying, sweet and weird. It smells like attic dust, rose water that's off and garden dirt. Perhaps my sample is off? It's not a bad smell actually, but it's darn odd and not very nice as a perfume.

I loved this scent. I never had a full bottle, always just the samples Estee Lauder gives with their gift packages at department stores.
It doesn't remind me of linen but it's still something that has a light fresh powdery scent. There is a sweetness to it and it's a little old school smelling, something for a more mature audience, that was part of the appeal when I liked this scent as a teen, it's sophisticated.

This fragrance is quite refreshing with some fruity accords. I like to wear it sometimes, switching between the more heavy type of fragrances like YSL Opium and many others in my collection.The opening is unmistakably synthetic, but an interesting one. This fragrance does evolve. Within a few minutes of spraying the initially synthetic note starts to make way for the floral-aquatic notes. Can't pinpoint what they are but it's light refreshing. You really have to understand this fragrance in order to like it. Give it a try and give it some time and you'll love it. However, this fragrance is not easy to find nowadays just like Estee Lauder Beautiful Love.

I hate this twist on White Linen. It's completely different from the original White Linen, which I continue to love to this day & remains a top favorite.

Years ago a former boyfriend asked me what I wanted for my birthday. I said White Linen. Since it was new on the market, he wanted to impress me with White Linen Breeze. Boy was I mad when I smelled it. I now not only had a fragrance I hated, but I still didn't have the fragrance I loved which I asked for. Unhappy birthday, haha.

While the original is refreshing, crisp, clean, & bright, the Breeze version (contrary to its name) has a very dry, choking quality. Blech.

It's no wonder most people dislike this fragrance.

One floral aldehyde leads to another and each successfully marketed perfume leads to its flankers, and at last I am getting around to testing a bottle of WHITE LINEN BREEZE edp which for inscrutable reasons I acquired scent unsniffed some time ago.

The opening is loudly chemical à la CHEAP AND CHIC, but once the composition settles down, WLB reminds me very much of the smell of aerosol-canned starch on a slightly over-ironed shirt. I haven’t actually seen a can of that product in aeons (we had some in our laundry room when I was a child), and I don’t believe that I’ve even thought about it in many years. Suddenly, however, aerosol-spray starch that has been slightly tinged by too much heat is what comes to my mind on donning WHITE LINEN BREEZE, clearly providing yet more confirmation of the oppressed middle-class suburban housewife theory of EL perfumes, or so it would seem.

Obviously connected to its namesake, WHITE LINEN BREEZE comes closest to the mid-stage of WHITE LINEN edp. Unfortunately, that’s my least favorite stage (Désolée). Perhaps I should wear WHITE LINEN BREEZE when I want people to think that I’ve ironed my clothes?

it lasts VERY much! its very fresh.. i did not like it at first but then the few times i wear it everyone said oh nice perfume and i give it a try.. i cannot smell the rose .. only the pergamont!

Well, I would not go out and buy a bottle of this because it is not my signature scent but I think it is pretty. It smells exactly as the name implies-linen. It smells just like clean linen out of the dryer!

I loved this circa 1997. It was the perfume of summertime and teenage romance.

tried it a long time ago and I thought was very nice for summer time.

While I like the original White Linen on my grandmother, I cannot stand White Linen Breeze. It is very, very strong and very, very long lasting. It is a fresh and heady floral with a strange osmanthus note in the base. Not for me.
