Lothair, a fragrance from the Trade Roads Collection, was inspired by the 1870 British Merchant Navy ships that reunited the ports of London, New York, Yokohama and Hong Kong. The exchange of raw materials from all over the world was at the heart of these crossings. Upon arrival at the harbor, the flavors of grapefruit, juniper berries and black tea accompany the sea foam that runs through the streets of the city. At the opening of the holds, the notes of fig milk and cedar emerge.

Penhaligon's
The founder of the brand, William Henry Penhaligon's, arrived in London in the 1860s to make a fortune and thus began his illustrious career. Creative and ambitious, William was inspired by the scents of the Turkish baths of the neighboring Jermyn street and created his first perfume, Hammam Bouquet, in 1874.
