London’s Hotel Café Royal today launches ten botanical mocktails inspired by the L’Atelier de Givenchy collection of perfumes.
All ten L’Atelier de Givenchy creations are exclusive to Harrods, and the hotel's mocktail collection will be available at its famous Green Bar, debuting from today to September 30.
Developed by Bar Manager Derren King, the mocktails have been designed to reflect the creations within the fragrance collection in keeping with the Green Bar’s celebration of botanicals.
Marrying the world of scents and flavours, Derren has worked closely with Givenchy using their detailed perfume notes to create a collection of drinks that range from fresh, floral and summery concoctions, to headier, full-bodied mocktails, all paired with a selection of distinctive garnishes and glassware.
For this new collaboration, each mocktail will have its own distinct colour, personality and taste, reflecting the key perfume notes which are unique to the renowned perfumer.
Highlighting the link between scent and taste, the new fragrances will be kept behind the bar for guests to experience before choosing their preferred mocktail from the list. The bartenders will talk through the fragrances within each mocktail, and will serve each alongside scented buttons created by Givenchy for this collaboration.
Mocktails include the summery Chypre Caresse, a delicious mix of exotic aromas of freshly squeezed grapefruit, agave syrup; Oud Flamboyant, impressively displayed with light smoke and honeycomb, with woody nuances, coconut noir iced tea, Manuka honey and flash flamed cinnamon. The latest fragrance in the collection, Iris Harmonique, is embodied by a mocktail of the same name which incorporates key elements of the perfume notes.
