A cocktail of lemon, black pepper and pine, fresh and fragrant as British wit.
Back to the Beginning
A dab-handed barber to London’s elite with an eye (or rather, nose) for unique scent. William introduces his first fragrance, the Hammam Bouquet, and by Jove is it a hit! Fragrant with heady lavender, rose and sandalwood, a bygone era is bottled for all eternity.
A Family Affair
William’s son proves that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. The young entrepreneur takes inspiration from the Royal Court with his first fragrant invention, the iconic Blenheim Bouquet. Created for the first Duke of Marlborough, this Eau de Toilette is as dry and fresh as the best gin – or the best of British humour.
