I have been honoured to attend a fabulous launch of Grossmith new Black Label Collection of perfumes, consisting of 4 unisex fragrances: Floral Veil, Amelia, Golden Chypre and Saffron Rose.
Each very different to the others, my favourite has to be the Floral Veil - a vibrant fragrance opening with citrus notes, providing an attractive contrast to the rich floral heart of Geranium, Rose, Ylan, Tuberose and Vanilla orchid. The composition of Floral Veil rests on a warm, smooth base of Casmeran, Amber and Musk.
Golden Chypre has much more spice to it, with the notes of Cardamom and Nutmeg and a base in Woods, Amber and Musk, while Saffron Rose is the spiciest and most manly of all four with notes of exotic Myrrh, Oud Wood and Tabacco - very oriental.
Amelia is the most feminine of the bunch, with Rose, Jasmine and Amber, which create an elegant and soft fragrance, dedicated to Amelia Brooke (born Grossmith), daughter of the founder of the Grossmith house.
The Black Label Collection is available in Harrods, Fortnum & Mason, Les Senteurs and Bloom Perfumery in London. A truly amazing collection just in time for Christmas shopping. Hint: Search for their Christmas Black Label box of 3.
