I love Estée Lauder but I was gifted this perfume and in all honesty I found it a little dry and a little too strong for me.
It’s long lasting so if your after a long lasting perfume this could be a go to for you.
But apart from that this perfume didn’t suite me.
It’s a very strong floral scent where the rose comes across quite well. Only for me it just seemed to have this musk undertone which played havoc with my senses.
I gave the bottle to my mother in law and she loves it and it smells ok on her. I can smell when she’s wearing it and it lingers so if your after a nice long lasting perfume try this.
My kids find it a little strong also so I try and wear lighter scents around them.
It’s a nice bottle. With a variety of sizes available if your unsure perhaps try the travel set with a few other EL fragrances included so you get a variety.
I purchased a 5 pack of mini Estee Lauder perfumes and Clean Linen was one of the scents. It comes in a cute bottle which is a replica of the larger bottle.
I am a bit fussy with perfumes, I dislike anything overpowering and can get headaches quite easily. This is definitely on the stronger side, you only need a small amount and the wear time on this is awesome. It doesn't have the horrible alcohol overtones like some other perfumes do which make me want to gag. I get subtle whiffs of it all day long.
To me it smells very fresh and clean. It is really floral, especially when first sprayed but then it settles down into a light summery, airy scent. To me I think it is definitely a more grown up fragrance, something perhaps my mum would wear. However as I only had a small bottle I did use it up. I wouldn't repurchase it as I just prefer others to this.
