Warm, rich, exotic, intense, spicy dramatic notes, often based on amber, vanilla, incense with florid floral top notes. Fresh, floral, sometimes herbal/mossy scents dominated by leafy, grassy, crisp notes. Lemon, bergamot, neroli, petitgrain, tangerine, grapefruit, cedar, syringe and lime. Reviving and refreshing. Rich, dark, smoky, deep, spicy notes usually intensified or contrasted with green, floral or animalic oils. Bouquets of flowers - tuberose, roses, lily, jasmine, lilac, muguet, ylang-ylang, violets, orange blossom etc. Fresh, sweet, feminine. Mostly florals and greens enlivened with notes of soft sweet fruits - peach, apricot, plum, pineapple, prune, and raspberry. Literally "from Cyprus". Longlasting, warm, mossy, soft dark scents. Very sophisticated, urban, couture and elegant. Usually chypres feature sharp, green top notes which soften to bases of oakmoss, amber, leather, vetiver, patchouli and sandalwood. Full-bodied, green, dark, aromatic notes of cedar, sandal, juniper, birchwood, rosewood, ebony, patchouli, oak-moss, lavender, clary sage. Entirely synthetic and quirky modern sub-group which uses a variety of chemicals (e.g. calene) to  introduce a suggestion of the sea, lakes, rivers and streams to the top and middle notes of a perfume. As innovative and ingenious as the introduction of aldehydes in the early 1920's.

Grossmith Parfums   What a Romance! Imagine a legendary British perfume company which enthralled the nation for over 100 years but which fell in desuetude in the lean years after the Second World War; 40 years later, Simon Brooke, traced his ancestry and discovered that he was a great great grandson of the Founder. Fired with enthusiasm, he determined to restore the House to its former glory boosted by the tremendous discovery of the company’s original formulae books with their priceless and detailed descriptions.

The finest natural oils and expertise have recreated 3 almost mythical scents known to Lilie Langtry and Queen Alexandra (who awarded Grossmith the Royal Warrant); the company created a perfume specially for the wedding of the future George V and Queen Mary in 1893. The re-launch features the house’s most famous and exotic creations.
