The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015 by Parfums de Marly and crafted by Nathalie Lorson, Sedbury is a chypre floral fragrance that weaves together the vibrant freshness of citrus with the rich warmth of amber and tuberose. The opening notes of clary sage and lavender introduce an aromatic clarity, while bergamot and tangerine add a luminous brightness. As it settles into its heart, jasmine and iris bring an opulent floral bouquet, softened by the creamy sweetness of vanilla and benzoin. The base notes of ambergris and patchouli lend Sedbury an enveloping warmth that is both comforting and alluring.

How to wear it

Apply Sedbury lightly to pulse points — its rich base notes take time to bloom. The aromatic top notes are fleeting but impactful, so allow them to settle before adding more layers. This fragrance is best worn in the evening when its depth can truly shine.
