Atkinsons 24 Old Bond Street takes the crown at The Fragrance Foundation Awards

The Fifi’s are the perfume equivalent to the BAFTA Awards, as hosted by the Fragrance Foundation, and what a wonderful turn out it was! From Richard E Grant to Alesha Dixon, everyone was there to hail this fabulous industry and pay homage to some of the greatest successes over the past year.

As an extra little bit of excitement, one of The Perfume Society’s own chosen fragrances for our subscriber welcome gift, were crowned Perfume Extraordinaire– and quite right too! Atkinsons 24 Old Bond Street really is the best of British, and we adore this fresh, aromatic scent. Here’s what the brand says about it…

‘A devastatingly aromatic cocktail of juniper, rose and black tea deepened with a gorgeously eccentric note of smoky, oak-casked whisky. Bracingly fresh yet warmly embracing, it is the definitive last word in English elegance.’

And this very special award was granted with no bias – it was blind tested by people who really know their fragrance – the journalists shortlisted for the Jasmine awards.

Congratulations Atkinsons!….and if you want to sample this star in scent and others like it, take a look at our subscription benefits here.
