Grossmith is one of the oldest English Perfume Houses, founded in 1835. Betrothal was originally created in 1893 in honour of the royal engagement between Queen Mary and King George. This modern Betrothal was made in honor of the engagement between HRH Prince William and Catherine Middleton.
Betrothal opens with a burst of lively citrus notes, dressed with an exquisite floral bouquet combining Rose de Mai and Jasmine from Grasse. The dry down is a rich sensual base.
Betrothal is a magical, resolutely modern scent with elegance and sophistication. The fragrance – made with the finest materials – is perfectly matched for a contemporary royal love story.

Floral
Floral fragrances celebrate the delicious scent of flowers, being the richest source of inspiration for perfumers. The use of flowers in perfumes have been used since antiquity; from soft delicate flowers like freesia, muguet and blossoms, to narcotic flowers like jasmine, tuberose and gardenia... Enjoy, and smell the roses!
