A milky green fig oozing sweet musk.

PERFUMER
FLORIAN GALLO

The wild and free spirit of a lost island captured in a fruity and sweet perfume with notes of icy pear, soft iris and creamy vanilla. Happy and juicy, Isla Bohemia slows its roll into a mellow base of sandalwood and musk.

An Eau de Parfum with floral amber notes, Mulberry Fig, is a warm creamy scent combined with bittersweet, green, and powdery orris notes to an incredible effect.

Created by the in-house perfumery team at 89 Jermyn Street.
Inspired by St James's Park, a quick promenade away from our Jermyn Street shop, one of London’s oldest Royal Parks, surrounded by some of the country’s most famous landmarks and lush greenery.
Creamy sweet and bitter green aromas encompass the shoreline of the blissful lake towered by an abundance of fig trees, immense in scale with elongated deciduous leaves flaunting their architectural foliage, believed to be the largest in Britain.

Mulberry Fig is a scent that evokes a floral amber fragrance combining the soft powdery character of orris with hints of fruit and spice. The perfume opens with a sparkle of fig and cardamom supported from the heart with fragrant green tones of vetiver and cypress. Amyris, cedarwood and sandalwood emphasise the overall woody character that permeates through the perfume.

Glorious sunsets, black sand beaches, whitewashed buildings, blue-domed churches, volcanic cliffs — the Greek island of Santorini is supernaturally beautiful. This namesake fig and sandalwood fragrance conjures its escapist allure with earthy green coconut, luxury orris and sensual musk.

Juicy bergamot against dark oud, innocence against corruption. Figlia di Eva is a rich citrusy-woody fragrance balancing the bright theme with occult woods. A green fruitiness sparks the border of these two elements. The oud in the formula is the Indian blue oud variety.

The sun stands still. The air shimmers. Time dissolves. You are alone — but not lonely. Skin. Silence. Isleta is the echo of an island within you — a moment without direction, carried by light and warmth. A daydream in summer. Hold onto nothing. Just be.

Isleta is an extraordinary fragrance that shines with the generosity of summer. This bright green floral weaves a delicate dance between fresh grass and sultry jasmine sambac, savory fig and aromatic white tea.

The dirt road is bumpy, glowing red in the fiery sunset. The truck lumbers through Mediterranean farmland, kicking up dust at every turn. You put your hand out the passenger window, experiencing the dry heat of summer and the rich smell of figs. Pulling into the grove, you fill your mouth with sticky figs. The driver takes you by the hand and you start running towards the sounds of laughter and music. There are flamenco guitars, dancing, milky cocktails. You spin around and around until the colours of the crowd swirl into infinity.

Perfumer: Joëlle Lerioux Patris

Inspired by Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own —the practice of taking space for yourself to think or create. Succulent pear and cozifying ambrette notes form a bright pool of sunlight around carrot seed, orris and warm cashmere. A melting embrace.

Hélène Napoleone was the daughter of Napoleon’s last lover, Albine de Montholon, and although it was never confirmed if the now-exiled Emperor was indeed her father, he did give her his name, so…? Her namesake fragrance is a vivacious bouquet of fruits and florals, headlined by sparkling pear and creamy magnolia. The charm deepens with the amber base, warmed by sandalwood and patchouli.

The never-ending war between what you “should” do and what you want to do. Where being loyal to your dreams and desires clashes with societal expectations. Well, here’s where the conflict ends. Inner War is an amber carnival of too-muchness, a stop at the candy floss stand, a ravenous kiss on the big wheel. This extrait is a billowing cloud of talcum powder and almond, suggesting delicate heliotrope. Curling like tendrils into the air is a phantom, licorice-like anise, adding freshness and subtle weirdness. Rose supplies the syrupy “mmmmm” that glues together ambroxan, vanilla and patchouli.
