Burnt Cedar Rainbow Doves 100ml Eau de Parfum

A limited edition of 20 bottles, made for London Craft Week 2019, using materials which were all available in the 1930s.

Inspired by composer, writer and talented British eccentric, Gerald Hugh Tyrwhitt-Wilson, 14th Baron Berners. An aroma of cedar bonfires, wild rose and mock orange, geranium, moss, musk, civet and sugared almonds. He dyed his doves the colour of sugared almonds to amuse his guests at Easter time, and his dogs wore Woolworths pearls.

Elsa Schiaparelli encouraged Lord Berners to make a fragrance with civet, but Nancy Mitford talked him out of it. Here it is.

INGREDIENTS: Alcohol (denat), Parfum, Coumarin, Citronellol, Geraniol, Evernia Prunastri (Oak Moss) Extract, Linalool, Eugenol, Citral.
