I've sampled countless luxury perfumes—nothing compares to this £28 scent in terms of timelessness.

      I don't wish to come off as a snob, but I have tested thousands of high-end fragrances throughout the years. As a beauty editor, I've received some of the finest perfumes from renowned brands like Chanel, Dior, Guerlain, and others. While it's true that these scents justify their luxury price, there is one more budget-friendly fragrance that I believe possesses equal timeless charm: Elizabeth Arden's White Tea perfume.

      **Elizabeth Arden White Tea Eau de Parfum**

      **Key notes:** Rose, mate leaves, tonka bean, amberwood, musk

      This fragrance is somewhat of a hidden gem—once you experience it, you won't want to go back. It has an unmistakable creamy freshness that prompts compliments on how great you smell, and the best part? It's priced at just £28. Currently on sale at Amazon, now is the perfect time to try it if you've been considering it. I’ve outlined everything I adore about this scent to show you why it’s a favorite among beauty editors.

      **The Scent**

      One of the reasons this fragrance stands out as timeless is its versatility for year-round wear. The musky, skin-like quality makes it suitable for daytime, yet it transitions effortlessly into an evening scent. It starts with powdery rose notes, followed by the green, tea-like aroma of mate leaves. It feels fresh and gentle on the skin, reminiscent of a soft cashmere sweater just out of the wash. This gentle nature is soon complemented by tonka bean, amberwood, and musk. Together, these notes create a warm, comforting, and somewhat sensual fragrance that makes you want to keep inhaling it. In fact, I'm wearing it right now and can’t resist smelling my clothes. While this scent may not make a bold statement, it does whisper of elegance each time I spritz it.

      **The Bottle**

      For £28, I'm continually impressed by how elegant this perfume appears. Encased in a sleek white bottle with a rich gold lid, it blends seamlessly with my pricier fragrances. Available in 30ml, 50ml, and 100ml sizes, my favorite is the 50ml because it has lasting power while still being compact enough to fit in my handbag for on-the-go use.

      **The Verdict**

      It's clear that I’m quite fond of this perfume. If you prefer bold fragrances, this might not be for you, but if you enjoy fresh, clean, skin-like aromas, I highly suggest giving it a try immediately. Not only does it evoke a sense of luxury, but it also looks stylish, is reasonably priced, and caters to various occasions. Indeed, Elizabeth Arden truly excels.
