New British Perfumery

From Drag Queens to Sea Lords ......

Modern British perfumers are using Britain's rich and diverse history as inspiration for a new wave of sophisticated and elegant scents.

Latest addition to Roullier White's extensive collection of rare fragrances is Handsome London, modern scents that we know will delight and resonate with discerning fragrance fans.

Each Handsome London fragrance is lovingly hand blended and bottled in London in a process that takes 90 days.
Handsome London Master JoJo
Recalling the heady and hedonistic days of the sadly now defunct, but forever remembered, Madame JoJo's, Handsome London's Master JoJo explores modern masculinity. Earthy corpulent notes of rich, dark patchouli are stirred with slightly sweet sandalwood, working together as one in this dual-faceted scent.

Master JoJo is constructed outside the confines of traditional perfumery and eschews the standard top, middle and base notes. A sophisticated yet subtly and understatedly edgy scent, a must for every collection.

Handsome London Redchurch
Created to reflect a very special and unique part of London, the part of London that Handsome London founders Jason Leonard and Richard Holmes call home,Handsome London's Redchurchis as diverse as the street.

Exotic blends of spices and fresh, almost floral green tea are bound with the Britishness of bright green apple on a bed of musky, sweet cedarwood tinged with twist of resin.

This is one of the most wearable scents, perfect for a spring day, that we have come across in recent months.

Tonnerre 1805
Named both for the year in which Nelson won the Battle of Trafalgar and Sir Francis Beaufort created the wind force scale that bears his name, BeauFort London's 1805 Tonnerre is a powerful fragrance with commanding notes of smoke and spice.


Spiked with hints of lime, sea brine, and rich brandy, it captures moments of humanity through the gun smoke and fire of Nelson's fateful battle. Rich and enveloping, the scent cocoons the wearer in the experience, permeating the senses with its powerful and evocative aroma.

The Holy Trinity: Perfumes Made by Monks

The rarefied aura that surrounds fragrance dates back to the remotest times of antiquity, when incense and fragrant oils would be offered up to the gods and deities of the ancient world. The Arab world is credited with introducing modern perfumery to the West, having preserved the ancient arts of distillation, evaporation, and filtration that had been lost to Christian society, and in turn heralding great advancements not only in the field of fragrance but of chemistry and science too. In passing this tradition on, Christian monks began to adopt the practice of creating fragrances as an expression of faith, before eventually the art form became available to the wider public, for a price. Today, most perfume is manufactured on a grand commercial scale; a far cry from the artisanal monastic traditions that gave birth to modern fragrance! However, some perfume houses still survive from this bygone age and serve to remind us of our industry’s history while continui...

Bâtard Folding Picnic Knife by Lamson & Goodnow

As author of The Best Bread Ever; Charles Van Over is expected to show everywhere up with an armful of bread. Whilst Charles enjoys breaking bread with friends; he does insist that the bread is properly sliced with a breadknife, not just ripped apart. The problem here is that bread knives are very long and with their serrated edges they are not the easiest of things to carry around. Charles wondered why a folding bread knife could not be produced and took his idea for a pocket bread knife to Lamson & Goodnow, American manufacturers of the LamsonSharp range. The Bâtard Folding Picnic knife is the result of this collaboration. At Roullier White we believe this may possibly be the best picnic knife ever made. The French word bâtard – and yes it does translate how you think it does – is a shorter and thicker type of baguette. The knife, of course, will cut everything including cheese, fruit, vegetables and as you cannot have a picnic without wine it also has an integral corkscrew. Rou...
