A savant of the perfume market in Bahrain, Nancy says she notices even the male customers are drawn to the scent of Hasu-no-Hana, Golden Chypre, which is part of the Black Label collection, and even the Saffron Rose as it has hints of oud in it, a truly precious scent for those within the region. Having being placed in 32 countries, Nancy and the Brooke family note that it is interesting to see how certain regions react more to certain scents compared to others, such as in Bahrain where customers prefer the powdery scents of Shem-el-Nessim and Amelia. The perfumes, which are retailed exclusively at Trousseau in Bahrain, have quick found a loyal customer base who understand the importance of having a novelty scent they can call their own.”Both parties have the same values of handpicking the products and have a beautiful story to tell, as they are both family owned businesses. I don’t work with anything that I have not tried myself or believe in, and Grossmith perfumes are what I look for when I seek a scent for myself”, Nancy says of their close relationship. Much like the Grossmith perfumes, the elegant aesthetic of Trousseau is also carefully curated by Nancy herself, where she personally selects the items to be placed in her plush boutique. “Trousseau” itself meaning the presents a bride takes with her before she gets married, defines the precious nature of the items that are retailed at the shop, and it comes as no surprise that Grossmith perfumes are part of that beautiful gesture and tradition that has been carried on for centuries.
