Founded in South Africa in 2000 the Charlotte Rhys luxury bath, body and home fragrance brand covers everything from candles to diffusers, aftershave gels to travel sets and has grown to become a beautifully scented force to be reckoned with.
With its market leading position in South Africa and a firm favourite with many Brits who become familiar with the brand through their travels the brand has now become available to purchase here in the UK.
The company says it prides itself on its green policy, being organic and selling luxury products with a conscience; it is a Beauty Without Cruelty (BWC) accredited brand and strong believes in the protection of natural resources and sustainable development, along with reducing negative impacts on the planet.
The products are packaged using eco-friendly and biodegradable materials which are 70 per cent recycled and free from harmful chemicals and dyes. It is partly down to these reasons that the brand has become so popular with some of the leading hotels around the world.
There are currently five different fragrances available in the UK, all inspired by the company’s birthplace: South Africa and more widely, Africa. There is a fragrance for all personalities and occasions and many of the product lines are available in each one.
