Heeley ORANGES AND LEMONS, SAY THE BELLS OF ST. CLEMENT’S Eau de Parfum

The Bells of London

With ORANGES AND LEMONS, SAY THE BELLS OF ST. CLEMENT’S, James Heeley has created an Eau de Parfum that marries the freshness of a classic cologne with the depth of cultural memory. Its name comes from an old London nursery rhyme, evoking the chimes of St. Clement Danes and St. Martin-in-the-Fields – bells that once rang out tales of debt, survival, and fleeting hope. The fragrance is not only citrus-bright, but also steeped in history, resonating like the voice of a city that has long sung of both light and shadow. It is a homage to London: vibrant, layered, eternal.

Citrus, Earl Grey, and Green Refinement

The opening bursts with sparkle: orange, lemon, mandarin, and bergamot shine with dazzling brightness, like morning light cutting through narrow streets. These citrus notes create instant vitality, playful yet refined. At its heart, neroli and petitgrain – blossom and leaf of the bitter orange – bring elegance and balance, both tender and slightly bitter. A whisper of Earl Grey tea recalls the soul of London afternoons, while ylang-ylang adds an exotic warmth, weaving subtle sensuality into the freshness. In the base, vetiver grounds the composition with smoky, earthy depth, like the low resonance of a great bell echoing through stone walls.

The Elegance of James Heeley

Independent perfumer James Heeley, a British designer based in Paris, is renowned for crafting fragrances that tell stories beyond mere scent. With ORANGES AND LEMONS, SAY THE BELLS OF ST. CLEMENT’S, he reinvents the classic cologne with both lightness and gravitas. It is at once innocent and profound, playful and rooted, fresh yet resonant with history. This is a fragrance for those who seek brightness without superficiality, who wish to wear not just a perfume but a cultural narrative.
