Perfume / Cosmetics, St. James's
Fodor's Review:
One of the most beautiful shops in London, Floris boasts gleaming glass and Spanish mahogany showcases (acquired from the Great Exhibition of 1851). As well as beautifully packaged soaps, bath essences, perfumes, and its famous rose-scented mouthwash, gift possibilities include goose-down powder puffs and cut-glass atomizers. Queen Victoria used to dab her favorite Floris fragrance on her lace handkerchief. True to its origins as a barbershop, Floris makes scent for both men and women as well as shaving products.
