"This Perfume is very sweet, and good for the time."
Recipe discovered in A Queens Delight, published in London in 1662. This book directly attributes it as a perfume for Queen Elizabeth I, and given the date of printing, we believer it is a genuine recipe that the author perhaps learned from perfumers to the royal court. We have adapted it with further details from Delights for Ladies, published 1644.
A sweet. herbal, and utterly unique fragrance from the Elizabethan era!
