In 1995, Saskia Havekes had the vision to establish a charming flower boutique, Grandiflora, located in Sydney’s Pott’s Point. Over the years, her humble shop has not only thrived, but she, herself, has garnered an international reputation as a distinguished florist, accomplished author, and now, a visionary fragrance creator. The Grandiflora brand, with its distinctive aesthetic, has had a profound impact on various aspects of design, including interior styling, hospitality, fashion, editorial publications, and the contemporary customs associated with bestowing and showcasing flowers.

Saskia Havekes approaches her craft with a unique perspective; she doesn’t merely arrange flowers, but rather curates them. Her expertise lies in her ability to infuse drama and grandeur into her floral compositions. Whether crafting an artful posy or orchestrating a magnificent installation, Saskia ceaselessly explores opportunities to sculpt beauty by harnessing the abundance of nature and the ever-changing seasons.

In 2013, Saskia Havekes took her artistic endeavors to new heights by introducing her inaugural fragrance line during an illustrious launch event in Paris, France. This marked the inception of Grandiflora’s foray into the world of perfumery. Since then, the brand has expanded its olfactory portfolio and continues to captivate fragrance enthusiasts with its innovative creations.

Currently, Grandiflora boasts an impressive array of six distinct perfumes in its fragrance base. These exquisite scents have been brought to life through collaborations with renowned perfumers such as Bertrand Duchaufour, Michel Roudnitska, Sandrine Videault, and Christophe Laudamiel. Each fragrance is meticulously crafted to showcase the brand’s commitment to quality and to encapsulate the essence of nature’s splendor.

As a new and aspiring fragrance brand, Grandiflora has been steadfast in pushing the boundaries of olfactory artistry. Their journey began in 2013 with the launch of their very first fragrance, and since then, they have released fresh creations, with the latest addition debuting in 2020. With each new scent, Grandiflora’s dedication to innovation and excellence remains unwavering, promising to leave an indelible mark in the fragrance industry.
