Behind the Fragrance

Until the 19th century, the collection and cultivation of exotic citrus plants in light-flooded and heated winter gardens was an absolute luxury and reserved only for the wealthiest nobles. Rare and valuable "Hesperides" were also kept in the Habsburg orangeries - from the Boboli Gardens of the Palazzo Pitti in Florence to the Schönbrunn Imperial Residence. Hesperia is a revived fragrance from the turn of the century, and at the same time a sensory journey through the morning palace park, in whose cool air a hint of mandarin, orange blossom and box leaves floats. One of the New York Times' top 10.

Wienerblut

Wienerblut was founded in 2008 in Vienna by Alexander Lauber. Lauber spent much time in antique shops, at flea markets and in the archives of the Hofburg to find and collect information about perfume from Vienna at the time of K.u.K. Reich and also acquired, among other things, old cosmetics sets owned by the Habsburg family. WienerBlut believes that great fragrances are like treasured secrets, giving the most pleasure to those who carry them. The formulas are built to whisper, not to shout. Listen carefully to the stories they tell. They love the complexity of natural raw materials and use them generously. The high amount of natural raw materials causes the fragrances to develop dynamically for hours. This is intended and a quality characteristic. The fragrances do not become "less", they change and become one with the wearer. They believe luxury is a result of seasoned craftsmanship, fine materials and timeless design. The bottles are made especially for us in a small European manufactory. Because of the hand finishing, each bottle will charm you with individual irregularities. The caps are made of ivory bakelite, a material most notably used in the early nineteen hundreds. Because the production is costly and takes time, bakelite has become a rare good. WienerBlut love its smooth, warm touch and organic surface feel.
