Elizabeth Bennet
£35.00
“Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can.”
— Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
I carefully crafted this light citrus fragrance from the vibrant notes of lemon and mandarin, and hid the headier, lush and grassy undertones of basil and aniseed underneath. Elizabeth Bennet from the famous “Pride and Prejudice” by Jane Austen is one of my all-time favorite characters, and I wanted to dedicate this lively and joyful fragrance to her.
“Elizabeth Bennet” makes a lovely gift for someone who likes classic Victorian and Edwardian-era literature and is a fan of fresh scents of botanical origin. It is 100% natural and based on the highest quality fractionated coconut oil. It is light, non-greasy and will quickly absorb into your skin leaving the trace of essential oils to work their aromatic magic. The perfume comes in glass bottles of 10 ml and is extremely shelf-stable, but please keep away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
“Elizabeth Bennet” arrives in a beautiful box, illustrated and adorned with a classic black Ravenscourt Apothecary seal, ready to be worn or (self-) gifted.
For best results dab a little onto your pulse points, such as your wrists, elbow creases, neck or decollete and experience this luxuriously green and fresh scent.
Handmade in the UK. 100% natural and botanical. Vegan and cruelty-free. Contains no alcohol or artificial ingredients.

My second favourite, I found it hard to decide which one i love more so i just orderd both of them. Perfect scent for the winter time and also very long lasting. Thought the lemon and mandarin would make it a fresh summer scent but the basil and aniseed make it a very warm lovely scent which i love in the autumn winter time. Best botanical perfumes <3

Ordered this for a friend, but was dying to smell it before giving it away! Lovely box, very original. The scent is very fresh and breezy, which suits Miss Eliza Bennett so well, I think!
I am planning on buying the ‘Anne of Avonlea’ perfume; again, for another “kindred spirit” and for myself.

I love this scent! Quite powerful for this little container. One drop is all it takes.

This is one of my favourite! It is powerful indeed, but don’t let that scare you, because it will turn into a subtle fragrance once applied onto your skin. Not overpowering!

This is lovely. It opens with the citrus scents mixed with the aniseed, and the aniseed is what sticks around, which gives it that hint of spice that evokes Lizzy Bennett. Just like with Alice, I wish that the citrus scents would be slightly more obvious, but they are not entirely gone after it dries.

I know the notes say “lemon and mandarin” but to my nose this starts as 100% fresh kumquat note. It quickly mellows as the herbal tones come out and stays close to the skin. It smells like standing in a garden in Sevilla, with the orange trees behind you, fresh grass at your feet, and basket of aniseed bread ready for lunch. This reads like a surprisingly mediterranean scent for miss Bennet, but it is absolutely lovely.
