Yardley Kiri EDT in detail
Kiri EDT comes from Yardley. This one is the Eau de Toilette.
Kiri price and value
In Europe it costs about €17, depending on the bottle size and the shop. That makes it one of the more affordable picks. It costs less than Tom Ford Black Orchid and Jil Sander Sun.
Kiri for work or evenings
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its citrus side keeps it clean and easy. For evenings, Tom Ford Black Orchid has more depth.
How long it lasts
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. Tom Ford Black Orchid and Jil Sander Sun last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like sandalwood and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
