For each royal wedding, the British perfume house Floris London – official perfumer to the Crown – has created a personalized fragrance for the brides. In 1947, Elizabeth II said “oui” to Prince Philip wearing the house’s White Rose. In April 2011, Kate Middleton married Prince William wearing the fragrance White Gardenia Petals and Illuminaum. And in 2018, Bergamotto di Positano eau de toilette was invented especially for Meghan Markle to put a ring on Prince Harry’s finger.
A venerable house with refined perfumes
Founded in 1730 in St James’s, one of London’s most exclusive districts, Floris London has become THE trusted perfumer in Great Britain. Official supplier to the Royal Court, the family business still has a boutique at 89 Jermyn Street, London.
But if you want to treat yourself to the perfume that Meghan Markle wore during her wedding to Prince Harry, you don’t have to go that far. We had a hard time finding it, but the perfume is available on the perfumery’s official website (with complicated delivery conditions due to Brexit) as well as on the Parfum Dreams website.

A fragrance with the sweet scent of sea breeze and sun, perfect for summer
Bergamotto di Positano eau de parfum is a unisex perfume “which evokes the warmth of a Mediterranean sea breeze, sunshine and clear, sparkling water”. Fresh bergamot blended with mandarin and warm marine notes provides instant refreshment. Orange blossom and a hint of vanilla give a soft and creamy character. While the base notes of wood, amber, ambrette and ginger give the fragrance a gentle warmth reminiscent of a Mediterranean evening.
There’s no doubt that the lovely Meghan Markle must have loved her fragrance. Especially since the mother of Archie and Lilibeth couldn’t do without a few drops of perfume every day. “Perfume is my favorite thing. So much so that if I leave the house and don’t wear any, I’ll turn around and put some on.”she confided to the English tabloids a few years ago.
Meghan Markle’s Other Favorite Perfumes
Since her marriage to Prince Harry, Meghan Markle has adopted several other perfumes. Among her favorite scents of late is Joe Malone’s Wood Sage & Sea salt cologne. From the same house, she also wears Wild Bluebell, which offers a real bouquet of bellflowers, lily of the valley, wild rose and a tasty touch of persimmon. Captivating.
