White Rose

Crafted in the early 1800s by Mr John Floris, White Rose became a favourite of Florence Nightingale, who had bottles shipped out to her while nursing in the Crimea war. In our Jermyn Street boutique, you can read a treasured letter from Florence in which she expresses her gratitude to Mr Floris and her favourite fragrance. Discover a bouquet of velvet roses, sparkling with an unexpected splash of cool iris, wrapped in warm amber and rich, earthy musk. Uncover a story of contrasts –the old world and the new, the perfect with the imperfect, drama and poise, town and country. Drawing on the creative home of the Floris family, White Rose has its heart in London’s Mayfair. Surrounded by beauty and art, fashion and architecture, the scene forms a natural backdrop for the scent’s timeless vibrancy.
