The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

English Lavender by Atkinsons was launched in 1799 and is attributed to James Atkinson, who opened his soap and perfumes shop in London that same year. This fragrance opens with a bright, fresh lavender note, which interplays beautifully with aromatic herbs and spicy accents. The heart of the scent features woody notes that add depth and warmth, while amber and sweet undertones provide a subtle contrast. English Lavender is a classic chypre composition that exemplifies Atkinsons' legacy as a purveyor of lasting elegance.

How to wear it

Apply a light spritz to your pulse points and let it develop naturally. The aromatic top notes are bright but fleeting, while the warm base notes will linger through the day. Best suited for daytime or evening wear when you want a subtle yet classic fragrance.
