This was NOT created in 1978, but in 2006/07 (see the commercila with Gwyneth Paltrow). Nice and clean fragrance, won't offend anybody, yet I prefer the original White Linen.

Pure White linen is such clean and feminine, yet it seems common and safe too. I could imagine everyone wearing this at every time, occasions. There is also something like in Pleasures I tried, but can't figure out what. At very first moment it delighted with a fruity blast - an average composition and then flowers and I did smell tulip and rose in this. That was my favorite part- it was very natural and I imagined country as well.
Now after hours I smell cedar and faded floral notes.
Choose this if you want safe perfume for work or going to vacation. It's lasting power is great and sillage as well.

I loved the fresh, clean smell of this when I picked up the tester, but I really didn't like it when I tried it on my skin. It smelled a bit sour and there was just this note I couldn't stand (patchouli?) It definitely didn't seem fresh on me!

I made the mistake of buying this scent. Too strong and sour for my chemistry.

You'd rather put it aside till summer.
I've never had a better summer scent, but I stop wearing it with the first autumn chills. Its cooling, refreshing aroma is ideal for summer heat, but just out of place in winter.
I'm sure you'll like it better in a couple of months.

I tried Pure white linen in the mall, and immediately liked it`s musky crispiness.The honeysuckle, the grapefruit, the heart of the tulip - mmm, so fresh without being overbearingly fresh - just what the doctor prescribed! I thought it would be a perfect scent for this coming spring, so I ordered a bottle.Well - I think that may be I overreacted. It is very strong in the beginning, very sharp and flowery, and it made my nose tingle.When the first notes softened, it revealed a neutral,flowery heart that had the only one unique note - tulip, hidden among transparent jasmine cloud.Otherwise, it showed itself pretty ordinary and I am a bit disappointed.It feels like it lacks something - more cedar in the base? more honeysuckle? less jasmine?
It would be a nice scent for work, though. I guess I`ll have to put it aside till I get a job!

I wanted to like this but it's too much of a white floral for me. Kind of soapy. It'd be nice for someone who likes clean scents.

Today I smelled Pure White linen, and travelled many miles, back home...
Oh, my lovely Greek island...
The sun, the sea, the honeysuckle in the yard.. The morning dew on the flowers and the fresh smell of grass and earth... They all sinked in my skin and became one of the most intimate smells in the world..

i didn't smell any of the fruityness that was supposed to be in the top layer. it kindof smells like laundry detergent? or mountain air. in any case, it does do it's job of creating the "clean" feeling or "fresh" feeling.

Some time ago when visiting a perfume shop I took a couple of perfume samples home- I never buy anything straight away, I first need to see how the fragrances evolve. Normally I write names on sample papers, not to get confused. However, that day there was one I haven't written anything upon, and this was the fragrance I found absolutely beautiful. I had to go back to the store and try to find out which perfume it was...
Pure White Linen is a delicate, sweet, floral fragrance. Very feminine. It made me think of green fields and blooming flowers, shining sun and romantic walks in the forest.
I am almost sure I will get in in March or April, as it seems perfect for that season of the year, it is a bit too subtle for autumn and upcoming winter.

i sampled this one and liked it alot. I wouldn't mine owning this!

It's a perfume I'm always going to have around. It smells crispy clean, like freshly loundered underwear, and it's super refreshing in summer, without being too citrusy or ever getting sweet on my sweetness prone skin.
I really appreciate the apple note in summer fragrances.

The honeysuckle and iris really come through on my skin.
I don't really care for this one. To me it is average.

I like this perfume very much, it is so romantic, green with tiny flowers, for a woman who loves nature, long walks in the fields... Countryside romance ;o)

I like where this fragrance wants to go, but it doesn't really get there for me due to a sour note.
It also seems dated and not in the classic sense. It smells like a good bottle of perfume gone bad.
