We first made a limited edition of Sonnet No. 1 for the Barnes Fragrance Fair, and the aim was to blend the aroma of Shakespeare's flowers. Shakespeare's first sonnet mentions "beauty's rose" hence the name. To rose - both the absolute and essential oil - we added lavender, beeswax, narcissus and hay absolutes, and evoke the aromas of lily and violet. It floats on a bed of white musks. This is the most expensive fragrance we've ever made, even topping The Waft From The Loft, although that was a lot more complicated to make. For batch number one we only made 500mls, but we loved it so much we decided to add it to the collection in 2024.

INGREDIENTS: Alcohol (denat), Parfum, Alpha isomethylionone, Citronellol, Geraniol, Linalool, Eugenol, Coumarin, Farnesol
