Floris founder Juan Famenias Floris and his wife Elizabeth began selling perfume, combs and shaving products in the elegant quarter of London's St James [in 1730]. The Floris shop they opened at 89 Jermyn Street remains the heart of the business and is still run by their descendants today. Tucked away at the back of the 89 Jermyn Street shop sits the Floris perfumery, where all the Floris fragrances have been created since 1730.
