Molton Brown Heritage

17.09.20

Our heritage

Since 1971

A journey through the history of how we became the pioneers of beauty: discover our roots in a hair salon in Mayfair until the creation of a house that bears royal approval.

Pioneering Botanical Beginnings


Pioneers in Botany

Our story begins on South Molton Street, as small-scale craftsmen, making natural hair care products by hand in the basement of our salon. These herbal recommendations and seductive aromas formed the basis of our philosophy.

The Icon

The Emblem

It was released as Britain's first luxury hand soap, 'Bubbling Orange Grove' as it was known at the time, and was recognized for its unforgettable citrus smell. Today, known as the beloved Orange & Bergamot, this first collection of ours is still our iconic bestseller.

A Lifestyle Destination

A Life Destination

Guiding the path of culture and style, our store on South Molton Street became much more than just a salon. Inside the vegetarian café with flowers blooming on the window, the atmosphere in the hairdresser's shop approached the crème de la crème de la crème of the music industry, the cinema and the most elite in fashion.

Molton Brown showed the way, and really devoted herself to man. Each one was unique..

A strong interest in the wonders of the journey. Each creation is made with rare ingredients from all over the world. Our body products are located in some of the best hotels in the world.

Fragrance in Focus

Focus on Perfume

We work with the most enthusiastic perfumers, giving them the opportunity to create truly unique aromas. Working with Master Perfumer, Jacques Chabert since 1993, whose expressive approach gave us the award-winning Re-charge Black Pepper.


Today & in the Future

Growing up from a small production unit in today's international luxury house, our heart remains in London with our iconic store on Regent Street. Our carefully studied and prepared product collections proudly carry the Royal Warrant by appointment to Her Majesty the Queen, the honorary distinction of the Queen of Great Britain, as they are the official supplier of the palace in personal care items.
