We moved to our Hammersmith studio in September 2019, and Sarah wanted to honour the London Borough which became our new home. She made four fragrances, of which Hammersmith Tea & Biscuits is the first. Hammersmith is on the River Thames, home to the Apollo, two tube stations with the same name, and a wide and varied range of people and eating places and we all muddle along together. She made Tea & Biscuits as a symbol of the British way of making friends and getting through a crisis which Hammersmith seems to epitomise. The biscuits featured are wholemeal lemon and ginger with toasted hazelnuts. The tea is black, with oat milk.
It was almost finished when our friend, philosopher/perfumer/walking-perfumery-encyclopedia Harry Sherwood came to visit bringing some brilliant biscuit accords of his own. He suggested adding our bran absolute to give it more fibre, and so it was complete.
