TEA ROSE
Luxury Bath, Body & Home Collection

CHELSEA GREEN, LONDON, MADE IN THE UK

‘The mere chink of cups and saucers tunes the mind to happy repose.’
George Gissing (English novelist)

Tea Rose, the Luxury Bath, Body & Home Collection is a refreshing twist on the usual scent of the tender rose.

In the British Isles, the cup of tea could not truthfully be called a mere beverage. It is a pause, a pleasure, a punctuation mark in the day’s affairs. The grand London hotels have taken the ritual of afternoon tea and elevated it to the point of poetry. In a carefully polished tradition dating back to the middle of the 19th century, loose-leaf black tea from chests is ceremonially poured into finest bone china amid the lustre of cut-glass chandeliers, the genteel rattle of cup on saucer, and the delicate scent of roses. In the pursuit of perfection on the palate, tiers of precision-cut finger sandwiches and the daintiest of sweet treats are served alongside.

Black tea, the dried leaves of the evergreen tea plant, has been traditionally applied for its soothing and protective properties, owing to a richness in tannins and polyphenols. The queen of the English garden, the rose contains precious natural oils that help lock in the skin’s moisture and promote smooth skin. The scent of rose is also much prized in aromatherapy for its calming and uplifting effects.

How did you come up with the idea for Tea Rose?

When I first started to work in London, one of my favourite past times was having a aperitives in the grand Art Deco Hotels in the West end – The Savoy, Claridge’s, The Berkeley. Occasionally, we would treat ourselves to afternoon tea for the “full works” of finger cut sandwiches, scones and clotted cream and a dainty cup of English breakfast tea served in a fine bone china tea cup. There was something so glamorous and elegant about these grand hotels and their stylish interior decoration that made you want to stay forever. These iconic London hotels have taken the ritual of afternoon tea and elevated it to the point of pure poetry and has been the inspiration behind the fragrance of Tea Rose.
