One of the first fragrances created by Dr. Walter Langer for his new brand in 1943, White Shoulders is a floral ode to a beloved wife. This bright fragrance opens with gentle notes of aldehydes and orange blossom with hints of peach and bergamot. The middle blossoms with expressive notes of lilac, gardenia, tuberose, jasmine, and lily with tickles of lily of the valley and iris. As it dries down, the gentle base of civetta, oakmoss, musk, and benzoin combine with the piquant scents of sandalwood and amber to create a complex thrill of breathtaking fragrance.
