Millbry Hill catches up with Steph from Brace of Rounton ...
.
Here at Millbry Hill, we are really excited to be stocking our first ever Perfume and Aftershave range and its from the fantastic Brace of Rounton. When we first got to test these fragrances, we knew straight away that it was something we had to have in our product range. The fragrances are so unique and the scent lasts all day long. They are the type of fragrance that will have people stopping you in the street or shops and asking you what you are wearing.
We wanted to know more about this fantastic brand, so we had a catch up with Steph to find out how the brand started ...

Steph set out creating Brace fragrances to create a bespoke fragrance for Jonny, her husband and herself as they could never find anything they absolutely loved, and that lasted! As they love the countryside and being outside, they decided to go with fresh but musky scents to remind them of the outdoors. Steph worked alongside a fragrance house to come up with the notes and it was when after years of samples they finally got the finished products, they decided they wanted to share it with everyone!

In order to create a difference from the market Steph decided to not dilute any of their fragrances with water, hence them being classed as a ‘parfum’ as opposed to an ‘eau de parfum’ which you would more commonly come across. This means you really do only need the tiniest amount and it is guaranteed to last you all day!

When it came to choosing names, again due to their love of shooting they came up with Brace, and then Calibre for the men's fragrance. Naming the women’s was slightly more difficult, as it turns out there are very few feminine related words to do with shooting!! Steph and her sister were sat one evening having a glass of Blush wine, and decided everyone loves Blush rose so why not go with that! And that is what they went with.
.
.
Steph's currently looking at lots of new exciting prospects which will hopefully be available soon, including Baby Brace and also a unisex fragrance, as she enjoys wearing Calibre as much as Blush!
