The Seasonal Box

  • Free, and commits you to nothing
  • A note from us the day you can join
  • £95 a box, against £110 for a bottle bought on its own

It opens with our first pre-orders. The first hundred to register also take a numbered founding place.

We will confirm your place, and write once more when pre-orders open; nothing else unless you tick the box above. Every email has a link to remove your details.

  • Complimentary UK delivery on every box
  • A full refund until 14 days after your first box arrives
The box

We would rather know you for years than sell to you once. So the Seasonal Box is a year with the House, and it costs less than buying bottles one at a time: £95 a box, against £110 for a bottle on its own.

At every turn of the season, early in March, June, September and December, a green box arrives with a letter from the House written for that season, a full 50 ml eau de parfum chosen for you, and a little something to welcome the season in.

Choose your first bottle here, or leave it to us. After that we choose each season’s bottle from your Consultation and what you already have, and name it in a letter a week ahead, so you may always ask for another.

Membership is for a year: four boxes, £380 in all, the first paid when you join. You may cancel for a full refund until your first box arrives, and for fourteen days after. After that, asking to stop during the first year means it ends with your fourth box. Once the year is complete, it carries on box by box, and you may stop at any time.

The terms in full
  • £95 a box, once a season (four boxes a year), each with a full 50 ml bottle, against £110 for a bottle bought on its own. Your price is kept for as long as you remain a member.
  • Your first box is paid for today and comes with our first bottles. We will confirm when it is sent before you pay.
  • Membership is for a year: four boxes, £380 in all, today’s included. Each later box is charged as the season turns, early in March, June, September and December.
  • When each later box falls due, we send you a secure link to pay for it.
  • We write at least seven days before every charge, with the amount, the date and the bottle we have chosen for you. If you would like another, choose it in your account.
  • You may cancel for a full refund until your first box arrives, and for fourteen days after it arrives (please send it back unopened). After that, you may ask to stop at any time during your first year: your membership then ends with your fourth box, and nothing more is charged.
  • Once your first year is complete, it continues box by box at the same price. You may then cancel free of charge at any time, from your account or the link in any letter, skip one box a year, and have a full refund within 14 days of a charge if that box has not yet left us. We write to tell you when your year is complete.
Delivery

Complimentary UK delivery on every box, by tracked courier. Box one travels with your first order; when pre-orders open, we will give you the dispatch date before you pay.

About the Seasonal Box

The Seasonal Box, a perfume subscription of a full 50 ml eau de parfum chosen for you each season, is a year with the House. At every turn of the season, early in March, June, September and December, a green box arrives with three things in it: a letter from the House written for that season, a full bottle of one of our eaux de parfum, and a little something to welcome the season in.

It is a full bottle, not a sample. Many perfume subscriptions send a few millilitres a month to try; this sends a whole 50 ml four times a year, and the bottle is chosen for you rather than picked from a list.

The choosing is the point. You may pick your first bottle, or leave it to us. After that, we choose each season’s bottle from your Consultation and from what you already have, and we name it in a letter a week ahead, so you may always ask for another. A green chypre for a cold spring, perhaps, or something lighter for the river in June: it depends on you, and on the season.

It also costs less than buying bottles one at a time: £95 a box, against £110 for a bottle bought on its own. We would rather know you for years than sell to you once, and we price it that way.

Delivery is complimentary on every box, within the UK. The membership runs for a year, four boxes, £380 in all, and after that it carries on box by box for as long as you would like it to.

How the year runs

A box goes out at the turn of each season: early in March, June, September and December.

A week before each one, a letter names the bottle we have chosen for you and why. If you would rather have another, say so, and we will send that instead.

Membership is for a year: four boxes, £380 in all, the first paid when you join. You may cancel for a full refund until your first box arrives, and for fourteen days after. After that, asking to stop during the first year means it ends with your fourth box. Once the year is complete, it carries on box by box, and you may stop at any time. The terms are set out in full above.
