DIVORCED
CATHERINE OF ARAGON
Catherine of Aragon, Spanish Princess and Henry VIII’s first wife, was a queen of fierce strength and dignity. Rich pomegranate, her emblem, bleeds into the air—bold, unwavering. Sacred frankincense whispers of her Catholic devotion, while smoldering clove recalls the steel of a queen who led England to victory at Flodden and became the first known female ambassador in European history. A scent of power, faith, and majesty.
BEHEADED
ANNE BOLEYN
Anne Boleyn, Henry’s second wife and reason for England’s split from the Catholic Church brought to the court irresistible French style and charisma. Despite every effort for her likeness, reputation and honour to be destroyed she has become more famous and recognisable than Henry himself. Zesty lemon intertwines with the delicate Tudor rose, grounded by the warmth of amber creating a scent that embodies the captivating allure and tragic beauty of her legacy.
DIED
JANE SEYMOUR
Delicate lily of the valley and wistful violet intertwine in a scent inspired by Jane Seymour—Queen, consort, and quiet strategist. Once a lady to Catherine of Aragon, she learned the cost of defiance through Anne Boleyn’s fall. Though remembered as meek, her measured grace masked a wise resolve. Dying young at the height of favor, this fragrance captures her fleeting bloom and enduring legacy—a gentle presence with a will of steel, gone too soon.
DIVORCED
ANNE OF CLEVES
A bold blend of carnation, rose, and clove evokes Anne of Cleves—briefly queen, eternally clever. The carnation, symbol of betrothal, blooms as in her portrait, marking a union born of politics, not passion. Dismissed by Henry as unlearned and plain, she was neither—cultured, pragmatic, and dignified. Queen for six months, yet outliving them all, she secured her freedom and favour as the ‘King’s Sister’—a title of wit, survival, and quiet triumph.
BEHEADED
CATHERINE HOWARD
A provocative blend of rose, jasmine, and musk captures the tragic allure of Catherine Howard—the so-called teenage temptress. Groomed by predatory men from childhood, she was ill-prepared for the treacherous court she would briefly enchant. Rushed into queenship, then swiftly condemned, even her family turned away in haste. Beneath the perfume of scandal lies a girl lost, forgotten, her innocence stolen long before the crown—her memory lingering like a scent too heady to forget.
SURVIVED
KATHERINE PARR
A commanding blend of rose, geranium, patchouli, and oud honours Katherine Parr—scholar, survivor, and England’s first published female writer. As Queen, she ruled as Regent in Henry’s absence, restored Mary and Elizabeth to the succession, and escaped arrest for heresy through wit and grace. Learned and devout, she authored three religious texts, shaping England’s spiritual discourse. Outliving Henry, she carved a legacy of intellect and quiet strength—her scent both refined and resilient, a tribute to a queen who endured and enlightened.
Light carefully... history burns.
