BRAND ANALYSIS
A T K I N S O N S C L A S S I C S
Freshness, a vital requirement of everyday toilette, is always reflected in the
character of English Lavender. Highly valued since the XIX century,
English Lavender has learnt how to retain its charm over time.
Its bouquet is still very modern: fresh, bold and natural.
Its secret is locked away in its original English recipe still an inspiration today
and in the precise choice of its lavender.
The base offers the preciousness of lavender essence and warm exotic woods.
Its naturally vibrant and fresh top notes are characterized by a high content of lavender essence, rounded off by the soft touch of rosewood.
Lavender and geranium provide its middle notes with the typical robust, bold and forceful middle “English lavender” notes.

Medallion label
From the packaging angle, the key and most typical element is its elegant and precise square bottle, chiming well with Atkinsons’s core values
In 1878, on occasion of the Paris World’s Fair, the eau de cologne, with its
extraordinarily well-balanced recipe, was presented with the most sought-after
award: the gold medal.
From then on, it went down in history with the name Gold Medal.
Today Gold Medal reproduces the original recipe created at the end of the XVII
century. This fresh extract of citrus fruits boasts one of the highest percentages of
natural components (80% over 25-30% for other prestigious perfumes).
A classic cologne that has kept its natural and sought-after freshness intact over the years
Its top notes are an explosion of citrus fruits: Calabrian bergamot, Sicilian lemon, sweet orange
Lush and lively, it fuses with the virile character of rosemary mixed with the blooming notes of Moroccan Rose and Sicilian neroli
Petitgrain Bigarade, precious luminosity that envelops the citrus fruit and flower notes
