The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2003 by Laurent Le Guernec for Bond No 9, Chelsea Flowers captures the essence of New York's iconic Chelsea district. This floral fragrance opens with a fresh and green top note that immediately transports you to a lush garden in full bloom. The heart is dominated by rose, providing a warm and comforting presence, while the musky base notes ground the composition with a subtle earthiness. Laurent Le Guernec’s creation marries the freshness of a spring day with the warmth of New York's vibrant neighborhoods.

How to wear it

Chelsea Flowers is best applied in light layers to allow the rose heart to unfold naturally. The fragrance leans slightly warm, making it ideal for daytime wear when paired with a light jacket or cardigan.
