Introducing the first ever home fragrance collection by Paul Smith. Designed to be reused, each two-tone vessel is filled with a scent that recalls some of Paul’s most cherished memories.
Formulated with raw natural ingredients, sourced from around the globe from some of the world’s finest suppliers, they are layered, complex and enticing scents created when Paul enlisted the help of some exceptionally talented perfumiers.
“The journey I’ve been on to create the fragrances for my first ever candle and diffuser collection has been a fascinating one, guided by some incredible perfumiers,” explains Paul. “It gave me the chance to reflect on some of my favourite memories, moments and places in a new way.”
A memory of the reclaimed iron railings at Paul Smith’s London shop. Smells like rain falling on wet pavements, cloudy mornings and soft suede.
The main inspiration behind Early Bird was the unique façade at No. 9 Albemarle Street, Paul Smith’s flagship shop in Mayfair, London. The natural patination of the cast iron, weathered by the English rain, but still beautiful, is an abstract reference for a particularly complex scent. Ultimately, it’s a tribute to the poeticism of the English rain, but stands a thoroughly modern scent with spicy, leathery notes.
Fragrance notes: rain, iris, suede, patchouli
