15 June, 2016

Floris x Turnbull & Asser 71/72 Eau de Parfum

Both Floris and Turnbull & Asser have a strong connection with James Bond.

Floris and James Bond
The brand Floris is mentioned by author Ian Fleming in some of his Bond novels and Fleming himself was a fan of the Floris 89 fragrance.

In the novel Dr. No, James Bond and Honeychile Rider use Floris Lime bath essence and Guerlain bathcubes to improve their bathing experience. They find these bath essences in their luxurious prison room in Doctor No's lair.

In the novel Moonraker: "Floris provides the soaps and lotions in the lavatories and bedrooms". In Diamonds Are Forever, Floris bath essence is mentioned: "He would have to send a cable to May to get things fixed. Let’s see - flowers, bath essence from Floris, air the sheets...".

Turnbull & Asser and James Bond
Turnbull & Asser made dress shirts with the famous turnback cuff for Sean Connery in his Bond films, and Pierce Brosnan as James Bond wears several Turnbull & Asser ties. The last Turnbull & Asser items seen in a Bond film are the tuxedo shirt and bow tie worn by Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.

Both companies are based on Jermyn Street, in the heart of London: Turnbull & Asser's flagship store is located on 71/72 Jermyn Street since the year 1903 - relatively recent compared to the incredible 286 years since the Floris store was opened (in 1730!) on 89 Jermyn Street.

The history and Britishness of the brands are a perfect match in the newly developed fragrance 71/72 (named after Turnbull & Asser's flagship location at 71/72 Jermyn Street). The fresh, woody and aromatic fragrance has been created to evoke the elegance of the rich wood furniture of both the Floris and Turnbull & Asser store interiors. For more details about the scent, visit the Floris website or the Turnbull & Asser website.
