✨SPONSOR REVEAL ✨

Floris is the oldest British family-run perfumery, opening on 89 Jermyn Street in 1730—where it remains to this day.

Floris has built a legacy of crafting timeless fragrances that transcend fleeting trends, attracting icons throughout history. Elite was a favorite of David Bowie, while No. 89 was famously written into Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels. Winston Churchill was known to wear Special No. 127, and remarkable women such as Eva Perón, Florence Nightingale, and Marilyn Monroe have also been among its distinguished patrons.

The fragrances and soaps have become the staples of royal households as well as being classified as ‘essential items’ on Sir Ranulph Fiennes famous trip to the South Pole. Floris’ Cefiro handwash which will be used at Magdalene May Ball 2025 is also used at Buckingham Palace.
