   Very light, fresh and nice. It smells like of freshly picked flowers. I have no idea what english bluebells smells like IRL, so unfortunately I can’t tell if this EdT smells right or not. To me, Yardley English Bluebell is a well blended floral, maybe a bit too light – it disappears very fast even for an EdT. But it’s a very nice freshener and I like it. I don’t smell the hyacinth, or the jasmine etc – I smell a mix of all the flowers. I could buy another bottle, yes.

   To those who want a bluebell type of fragrance with lasting power, may I recommend Vera Wang’s Periwinkle and Iris? It lacks the aquatic/melon note here and instead takes a powdery approach to blue heaven. Delightful!

   To people asking “where is the bluebell in this?” – from what I’ve read, English bluebells are meant to be very difficult to extract fragrance from and so their scent has to be approximated by combining other accords – whether these are other flowers, or sweet or green notes. I’ve never smelled real English bluebells (we tend to get the scentless Spanish bluebells near me) so I have tried bluebell fragrances, including Penhaligon’s and Jo Malone. These tend to have a fresh, almost melony scent.
   I found this similar and very pleasant in its fresh-floral-sweet scent, but it is very light and doesn’t last long. For me this is intriguing and elusive, rather than a marker of the perfume’s pissweakness. None of the Yardleys last long in my experience – they are eaux de toilette that I use for a quick burst of light fragrance.

   So Classique and Vintage…of the antiquated days of Olde England. Hyacinth and Blêubelle{Bellefleur/Bellfower} are the same genus. Blëubelle is a soft subtly dustier cousin of Hyacinth. Though there may not be any actual Bellefleür in Yardley Blêubelle. The scent is spot on. Now remember this isn’t just a Blêubelle fragrance. It’s not supposed to smell soley of Blêubelle It’s a perfüme/Toilette Spray. Which means it’s a fragrance that is multi-layer but stars Blëubelle. It smells like dried wild bluebells that my Grandmother would pick from the field by her farm. Would then bring them inside, bind them with some other small field flowers hang them upside down to dry. While they were drying out they gave off this floral, earthy smell. She would make sachetés for the drawers and linen closet. When she washed the sheets and hung them on the clothes line they would pick up the scent from the bluebells field. Her little farmhouse always smelled of dry bluebelles. Even the sheets smelled so good, cool, crisp and bluebelle-esque when she was tucking me in. This perfüme reminds me so much of that scent and my beloved Grandmom and her cozy little farmhouse. Old Fashioned dried bluebelle sachetés and potpourri, or even a Bluebelle Tea. That’s what Yardley Blêubelle Smells like. Not something I’d wear everyday. When I’m in a Nostalgic mood or spritzing the freshly washed and air dried sheets, bed clothes & lingerié.

   This is so lovely and perfect for spring. Romantic scent of spring flowers, but so weak. Maybe is nice for an interview, when one have to be descretely perfumed. I might purchase the perfumed body spray.

   This is shockingly weak, I spray it, get a quick smell of it and within minutes it’s gone and I can’t smell anything, not a hint of whatever it’s supposed to smell like, it disappears so quickly that it doesn’t give me a chance to describe it, really not happy with this 🙁

   Does anyone else find it weird that a scent called English Bluebells doesn’t actually have any notes of Bluebell in? Am I missing something here? I know Bluebells are in the same family as Hyacinths but that doesn’t make them the same thing. Ah well, I’m sure it smells lovely I just find it a little odd they would go and call it Bluebell and not Hyacinth if that’s the predominant flower scent.

   I find this a disappointment; a vaguely pleasant but unoriginal fruity floral which smells like a dozen other scents, but absolutely nothing like English bluebells. For me its only redeeming feature is reasonable longevity; I could still smell it over an hour later, which is a long time on me.

    Maybe I am an ignoramus, but where is the Bluebell? Hyacinths are Hyacinths,… not bluebells. (I remember bluebells from my childhood, growing wild in the woods)
    Sorry, rambling on. That said, this sounds like something worth trying.
