ROYAL SAPPHIRE

Royal Sapphire is a unisex extrait de parfum by Thameen London, the British house founded in London in 2013, whose name means “precious” in Arabic, led by artistic director Christopher Chong. Part of the Sovereign Collection, dedicated to the jewels of the British monarchy, it is a refined, bright and warm floral amber.

The Fragrance

Royal Sapphire is inspired by St Edward's Sapphire, the oldest jewel in the entire British Royal Collection, which according to tradition belonged to the ring of King Edward the Confessor and is now set in the Imperial State Crown. The fragrance interprets its deep blue and timeless nobility: a perfume that starts bright and changes colour on the skin, like a precious stone that lights up under the light.

How It Evolves on Skin

The opening is citrusy and sweet: bergamot and mandarin bring a soft light. In the heart, the fragrance turns floral and green with orange blossom and jasmine. Over time it warms into a woody, ambery base, where ambergris, patchouli, oakmoss, amber and dry wood leave an elegant, enveloping trail.

Who We Recommend Royal Sapphire To

We recommend Royal Sapphire to those who love refined floral perfumes with a warm, woody base, elegant yet easy to wear. It is perfect for everyday wear in every season, from the office to important occasions. Unisex, it suits him and her.

FAQ

Is Royal Sapphire fresh?
It opens fresh and bright with bergamot and mandarin, then moves to orange blossom and jasmine and warms into a base of ambergris, amber, patchouli, oakmoss and dry wood: more than fresh, it is a luminous floral amber.

What is ambergris?
In perfumery it is the note that evokes a rare material of marine origin, with a warm, salty and musky scent. In Royal Sapphire it leads the base together with patchouli, oakmoss, amber and dry wood.

What is the difference between Royal Sapphire and Peregrina?
Both are floral amber fragrances, but Royal Sapphire opens with bergamot and mandarin and moves through orange blossom and jasmine towards a woody base of patchouli, oakmoss and dry wood. Peregrina focuses on white flowers and Damask rose, sweetened by vanilla and caramel.
