The art of traveling is about soaking up a city and all its distinct flavors, sights and sounds. Now Rosewood Hotels & Resorts is bringing a luxury twist to taking in its scents as well – one that doesn’t require leaving your room. At nine Rosewood properties, simply ring for the fragrance butler and a white-gloved attendant will arrive with a silver tray holding ten fragrances specifically chosen to suit the city and its guests. Try one, or as many as you like. You can even change from day to dinner.
The Carlyle in New York showcases scents reflective of its “elegant, old-world feel,” such as Hérmes Eau des Merveilles and Tom Ford for Men. At the Mansion on Turtle Creek, the feminine Givenchy Dahlia Noir and Prada Candy express Dallas’s Southern charm. And by the San Francisco Bay, Rosewood Sand Hill has partnered with the organic fragrance company Anje to create California woods, an exclusive scent with base notes of the area’s native rose and oak moss.
“Rosewood has always prided itself on offering special signature services that make a guest’s stay more like a journey and less like travel,” says Rosewood VP Ralph Aruzza. The fragrance butler gives guests “what they need before they even recognize the need for it.” And, we might add, leaves one less thing to pack.
