Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Cotswolds, the charming village of Burton-on-the-Water is renowned for its honey-colored stone cottages and the serene River Windrush, which meanders gently through its center. Amidst this quintessential English landscape lies a hidden gem of olfactory artistry—the Cotswolds Perfumery. Established in 1966 and nestled on a tranquil street just steps from the river, this family-run perfumery has cultivated a legacy of artisanal excellence for over half a century. Housed in a beautifully preserved Grade II listed building that dates back 300 years, the perfumery seamlessly blends heritage and modernity, operating a state-of-the-art compounding and manufacturing facility that meets the highest standards of quality and hygiene.

At the core of its innovation is a world-class laboratory where science and scent converge. Here, master perfumer Insar meticulously crafts each fragrance, drawing inspiration from the surrounding countryside and his deep understanding of aromatic chemistry. Visitors may be fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of him at work, perfecting the next limited-edition collection with precision and passion. Each scent produced at Cotswolds Perfumery is a testament to tradition, craftsmanship, and sustainability—capturing the essence of the region in every drop.

More than just a perfumery, it is a sensory destination where visitors can explore the art of fine fragrance, from bespoke blending experiences to curated signature lines. With its roots firmly in Cotswold heritage and its vision set on the future of perfumery.
