Story 

An important London locale, a small distance west of St James’s, inspired the creation of our Apsley cologne in 2016. The great and the good of the British aristocracy have long beaten a path to our doors, and Arthur Wellesley – 1st Duke of Wellington, victor at the Battle of Waterloo and former Prime Minister – was no different. The Apsley cologne was created in his honour, its name taken from his Apsley House neoclassical abode on Hyde Park Corner. Rumour has it that if one were to post a letter to its historic address “Apsley House, 1 London”, that it would still arrive. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the house was the “first” home after the Knightsbridge toll gates from the countryside, marking it the “start” of the capital, hence the address.

Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Sophia ★★★★★

The grapefruit note is the first thing that hits me, and it's so crisp and fresh before the pepper adds a little bite. The vetiver keeps it grounded on my skin for hours, even through a workday, which is exactly what I wanted.

Hazel S. ★★★★★

The pepper note really stands out on the dry-down, cutting through the grapefruit in a way that feels sharp but never harsh. I wore it to the office and caught myself sniffing my wrist all afternoon, which never happens with my usual colognes.

Penelope ★★★★★

Opened the box and sprayed it once on my wrist before work—that grapefruit and pepper combo hits bright, then settles into a woody vetiver that's still going strong five hours later. It's the kind of scent that gets you asked "what are you wearing" by a coworker, which is a nice ego boost.
