Everything you need to know about NEW SC.05 Columbia Road

The news is finally out! Say hello to our newest addition to the Cast… SC.05 Columbia Road. Our founders, Ed & Andy sat down to discuss the most asked questions by you. We’ve put their answers together if you prefer a good read; however, we’ve added the video at the bottom of the blog too!

What was the inspiration behind SC.05 Columbia Road?

Ed: "So some of the main inspirations behind the fragrance were from our experiences at Columbia Road flower market in London. We would go there really early, usually on a crisp morning when it was quite cold. We saw the sunlight peeking over the terrace houses. There was the smell of fresh coffee because people were, it's all lined with coffee shops down the street and then the smell of cut stems with tulips was always so prominent."

Andy: "That was the main thing we liked the most because it wasn't just flowers and floral, it was the stems and the greenery that you could smell too."

Describe the fragrance of SC.05 Columbia Road?

Andy: "So the main top notes of the fragrance are Amber, Violet and Tonka Bean. But on our packaging you can read the scent as..."

Scent description
Early Sunday morning. Lemon sunlight peeks sleepily over the terraces of the bustling flower market. Street sellers call; their stalls a riot of violet and amber blooms. The scent of freshly cut stems and good coffee. With a smile you melt into the crowd.

AT FIRST
ZESTY LEMON, CUT STEMS, COLD SKIES
AND THEN
IRIS, VIOLET LEAF, WARM HANDS ON A COFFEE CUP
FINALLY
AMBER, TONKA BEAN. A PERFECT SUNDAY

Is this scent just for women?

Andy: "Just like all of our other fragrances. Scene five is also for all genders, don't be put off by the lilac. It is not just for women, it is floral, but it still has a lot of depth to it. We know any gender would love this scent in their collection."
