Sniffing out a new and unique signature is nothing short of a challenge – especially when navigating the vast library of unsmellable scents that make up our online perfume department. Fortunately, our in-store fragrance specialist Stuart Williams has a nose to rely on – and here, he deconstructs six of his favourite scents. Consider this your insider’s guide to the heritage names and niche brands that sit at the heart of our iconic fragrance edit – and maybe even meet your new match…
1.
Nun
Laboratorio Olfattivo
“This beautifully delicate floral is perfect for those that don’t like an overpowering fragrance. Its stunning notes of lotus, jasmine and ylang ylang mixed with creamy amber and musk come together to create this dreamy lotus-floating-on-water-inspired perfume, which is also exclusive to Liberty.”

Vodka on the Rocks
Kilian
“I fell in love with this fragrance the minute I saw its name. This delightfully fresh creation of spices, bitter rhubarb, florals and aldehydes literally sparkles on the skin – it’s very much my must-have fragrance right now!”

Oud Rose
Les Sœrs de Noe
“This is by far my favourite oud-rose combination because the oud doesn’t overpower the rose and it retains its beautiful warm floral heart. This fragrance is very much an East-meets-West fusion, inspired by the love affair between Mark Anthony and Cleopatra. This beauty is also a Liberty exclusive.”

Jack
“Jack will always hold a very special place in my heart; not only because its creator, Richard E Grant, is one of the most amazing and inspiring individuals I’ve ever met – both as a perfumer and human being – but I also like to think we at Liberty played a tiny part in its evolution. The fragrance itself is unisex and is so complex and unique, with notes of marijuana, pepper, nutmeg, oud, vetiver and olibanum. It changes every time I wear it and it’s so addictive.”

La Route d’Emeraude
Isabey
“This truly magical floral is quite literally akin to a bouquet of white flowers with a heady mix of jasmine, orange blossom and tuberose, blended with amber and vanilla pod. This elegant 1920s fragrance is always a hit with brides-to-be, but is ideal for any floral lover.”

Iridium
Tom Daxon
“If you’re looking for something completely unique yet easy to wear, this one is for you. The combination of notes is so original: juniper, carrot seed, iris, cedarwood and Iso E Super – the ingredient which, I think, makes it so contemporary. I wear this day or night and always get a different response – but always a positive one.”
