The Southbank is a London area steeped in history and was in Imperial days the centre of the capital's spice trade. Now home to Tate Modern, the NFT and National Theatre SE1 evokes the atmospheric scents of the old riverside wharfs on which the treasures of the world were unloaded.
A wonderful amalgam of aniseed, orange and lemon which deepen into rich notes of pimento, jasmine, cadramom and nutmeg. The subtle base catches the smells of water and pierheads: drift wood, vetiver, salty sea moss and amber.
