Bespoke amenities at Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane
When the team at the soon-to-open Four Seasons Hotel London started to think about developing an exclusive range of guestroom amenities, they knew it would have to be something very special to mark the opening of the new hotel on Park Lane.
They wanted an original collection that would match the chic, contemporary style of the guestrooms and suites created by interior designer Pierre-Yves Rochon. It would have to represent the understated elegance of Four Seasons spirit and above all, it would have to be something that Hotel guests might have chosen for themselves and would want to return to time and again. Recognising what a tall order this was going to be, they turned to Roja Dove, the industry’s most respected bespoke parfumier, and asked him to create a signature scent that would satisfy these demanding, yet crucial criteria.

For me, that is the embodiment of the Hotel.” Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane.
