About

A special opportunity to visit the Floris Perfumery and Museum, located through the back of the flagship boutique and former family home. The space is furnished with Spanish Mahogany showcases acquired from the Great Exhibition, organised by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in 1851.

On display is an original handwritten letter to Mr Floris from Florence Nightingale from 1867, as well as records from past customers such as Sir Winston Churchill, Noel Coward, Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier, to name just a few.

Take time to view the fragrant family archives spanning almost 300 years of perfume making before experiencing a perfume-blending demonstration. Learn more about the magical world of perfumery from the Floris perfumer, as you smell some of the accords and raw materials that were selected and carefully hand-blended in the creation of ‘Lily’, Floris’s newest release into the collection, launched on 1 May this year.

Includes a selection of fragrance samples to take away and try later.
