ORMONDE JAYNE

Ormonde Jayne is a company devoted to the pursuit of beauty and elegance, imbued with the highest quality of materials and presentation. The aim is pure and simple – the production of beautiful and sophisticated scents using the finest materials available, including some that are rarely smelled in today’s perfume industry. Their avowed aim is ‘to be at the cutting edge of creativity, defying convention in the world of scent’, something that they have certainly achieved.

The company was founded by Linda Pilkington, who is a hands-on creator and very much involved in the selection process of the raw materials. She first became involved in perfume by making scented candles, and her creative impulses soon found a fuller rein. It is Linda’s tireless commitment to producing flawless quality that has seen her travel widely; researching and sourcing ingredients from locations as disparate as the Horn of Africa to the Laos border in Thailand. Linda has always expressed her desire to combine elements that she feels can epitomise true elegance. She combines the wonders of English craftsmanship and the art of French perfumery with natural oriental blends.

No job is too small – be it the development of packaging, spending time with customers looking for their signature scent in her flagship boutique in the Royal Arcade on Old Bond Street; or masterminding the company’s expansion into the Middle East. Her innovative online store has also allowed perfume lovers worldwide to dip into her world and reward her with their loyalty. Some of the most respected and admired actors, artists and perfume experts in the world proudly swear allegiance to her fragrances. Her painstaking attention to detail includes beautifully engraved bottles and gorgeous gold-flecked solid perfumes. Every experience and aspect of her creations is designed to appeal to even the most demanding perfumer lover.

Perhaps most refreshing, however, is Linda’s modesty and generosity which is reflected in her fragrances. Her eponymous first scent, Ormonde Woman, swiftly moved into the best selling lists for alternative perfumery with its lusciously bitter notes of black hemlock absolute – a note seldom used to such glorious effect. Other highlights include: Tolu, which is perfect for men and women – a sensual oriental perfume with wonderfully dry juniper berry, orchid and Moroccan rose; Isfarkand – a vibrant fragrance suffused with mandarin and bergamot oil, and the signature fragrance, Ormonde Man a beautiful oud based scent. It was no surprise that Luca Turin, a leading perfume scientist and biophysicist, awarded her five stars in his seminal book: Perfumes: The A-Z Guide, an endorsement of her work and career.

Ormonde Jayne’s distinguishing features are the ability to create balance between refinement, delicacy of touch and constant innovation. There can be little doubt that Linda’s endless inspiration and her striving for perfection is inextricably linked to the beauty and success of her brand and a British perfume Renaissance.
