A Royal Beginning
The story of ATKINSONS begins with a daring young man named James Atkinson, who arrived in London from Cumberland carrying a suitcase full of handmade fragrances and pomades—and a bear, his faithful companion and symbol of strength. By 1826, his perfumes had gained such acclaim that ATKINSONS was appointed official perfumer to the Royal Court of England, earning a reputation for excellence that would echo across Europe.
From aristocrats to artists, the finest names in history—from Napoleon’s wife Josephine to the Duke of Wellington—sought out ATKINSONS for bespoke fragrances that reflected individuality and sophistication.
British Craftsmanship, Timeless Scents
At the heart of every ATKINSONS creation is the finest British craftsmanship. Each fragrance is meticulously composed using rare ingredients and complex formulas to ensure a luxurious, memorable experience. ATKINSONS fragrances are not just scents—they are stories bottled in glass, designed to transport you to historic London ballrooms, lush English gardens, and windswept countryside estates.
With names like Her Majesty The Oud, The Odd Fellow’s Bouquet, and Tulipe Noire, ATKINSONS masterfully blends tradition with eccentricity, elegance with boldness. These are not just perfumes—they are declarations of style, attitude, and taste.
