Wedding Scents

We’re delighted to unveil our partnership with London’s premier blow dry destination, Duck & Dry. An indulgent treat for the festive season. This collaboration celebrates the launch of our Hair Mist fragrances, now infused into Duck & Dry’s signature blow dry experience – available through December. To mark the collaboration, we sat down with Yulia Rorstrom, Founder & CEO of Duck & Dry, to learn more about her scent and style rituals, in business and at home. Happy Holidays! What are your go-to pre-party season rituals? Is there any routine you get up to before the true party season arrives? For me, the lead-up to party season is about resetting — healthy hair, glowing skin, and a touch of indulgence. I like to book in for a nourishing treatment and a fresh blow dry to bring life back into my hair. It’s the calm before the festive storm — I clear my schedule for a few hours of self-care, whether that’s a long walk, a silk pillowcase, or a hair mask with a candle burning in the background. Beautiful styling starts with healthy, happy hair. Duck & Dry is known for creating signature blow-dries that look effortlessly polished. What’s the secret behind achieving that undone-yet-refined look? It’s all about balance. The Duck & Dry signature blow dry is polished but never stiff — it has movement, softness, and a lived-in finish that feels natural. The secret lies in technique and prep: the right products, the perfect brush tension, and an eye for shape. We design every blow dry to enhance the client’s natural texture and personality — so even when it looks effortless, it’s been executed with intention. Hairstyling and scent both have a transformative power. How do you think a great blow-dry can make someone feel, much like wearing a signature scent? A great blow dry has the same emotional power as a beautiful fragrance — it lifts your mood, changes your posture, and makes you feel instantly put-together. Both are invisible luxuries that transform how you move through the world. There’s something magical about walking out with freshly styled hair — it’s confidence in motion, just as scent is confidence in the air. With party season approaching, what are your go-to tips for choosing and maintaining a flawless style that lasts from daytime engagements to evening celebrations? Start with a good foundation — clean, well-prepped hair and a long-lasting blow dry. Choose a style that transitions easily: soft waves or a smooth, voluminous finish that can be restyled into an updo later in the day. A few clever tricks — a silk scarf to tame frizz, a dry texturising spray in your clutch, and a touch of shine serum — can refresh your look effortlessly.This season, I’m loving finishing touches with Duck & Dry’s very own silk accessories — a twilly or headband instantly transforms a blow dry into something special. They not only add polish but also help protect and maintain the style, taking you seamlessly from desk to dance floor. Every woman has her signature style, just as she might have her signature scent. How do you and your team help clients discover “their” perfect hairstyle? We always start with conversation. Understanding lifestyle, personality, and preferences helps us guide clients toward a look that feels authentic. The perfect style isn’t just about what suits your face shape — it’s about how it makes you feel. Some women love that glossy, red-carpet bounce; others want something sleek and understated. Our role is to translate who they are into a hairstyle they can own every day. The Duck & Dry experience is sensorial — from the look and feel of the salon to the final spritz of finishing spray. How intentional are those sensory details in shaping the overall guest experience? Completely intentional. I’ve always believed that beauty should be a mood-lifting ritual, not just a service. From the lighting and music to the scent in the air, everything at Duck & Dry is designed to feel joyful and elevated. We want every guest to step in and immediately feel lighter, more inspired. The sound of blow dryers, the touch of silk, the scent of products — they’re all part of a multisensory moment that stays with you. The partnership with Miller Harris introduces fragrance into the styling ritual. How do you imagine scent complementing or enhancing the art of hairstyling? It’s a natural pairing. Both hair and fragrance are deeply personal forms of self-expression. Incorporating scent into the styling ritual elevates it from a routine to a ritual — it lingers as you move, creating a trail that’s both intimate and empowering. A beautifully scented mist through freshly styled hair feels luxurious, completing the look in the most subtle yet memorable way. As someone deeply immersed in beauty and style, what current hair trends excite you most this season? I’m loving the return of refined glamour — glossy, sculpted blow dries and silk accessories that feel timeless yet modern. After years of undone texture, we’re embracing polish again: shiny, healthy hair with bounce and purpose. Our Silk Edit collection perfectly captures this shift — luxurious silk twillies and headbands that complement the blow dry while adding a fashion-forward edge. It’s understated sophistication with a nod to retro femininity. How do you see Tea Tonique and Scherzo fitting into different moods of the season, and which one would you personally gift to someone you love? Tea Tonique captures that bright, effortless freshness we often crave in the cooler months — it’s crisp, uplifting, and brings an instant sense of clarity, like a brisk morning walk wrapped in a soft scarf. Scherzo, on the other hand, is deeper and more expressive — it’s warm, floral, and indulgent, perfect for evenings or when you want something that feels cocooning and a little bit glamorous.Personally, I would gift Scherzo to someone I love — it feels like a fragrance with presence and emotion, something that lingers beautifully and tells a story long after you’ve left the room. When you’re getting ready for a festive night out, what kind of fragrance notes do you find yourself reaching for, and what feeling are you hoping it brings? For a festive evening, I’m drawn to rich, sensual notes — amber, soft woods, and subtle florals that feel both elegant and confident. I love a fragrance that makes you feel instantly “ready” — like the final touch that transforms your mood. It’s about that balance between sophistication and joy, a scent that carries you through the evening with ease and a touch of allure. When you finish a blow dry with a touch of fragrance, what do you hope your clients feel as they walk out of the studio? I want every client to feel like the best version of themselves — polished, confident, and radiant. That final spritz of fragrance is more than just a scent; it’s the finishing note to their experience. It should evoke lightness and luxury, a little everyday indulgence that makes them carry that “fresh from the studio” feeling long after they’ve stepped out. Finally, how do you personally get “wrapped in scent and style” when you want to feel your most confident and radiant? For me, confidence comes from ritual. I start with a beautifully styled blow dry — smooth roots, soft volume, and one of our silk twillies woven through — and finish with a delicate spritz of fragrance through my hair. I love how scent catches movement; it’s subtle but powerful. Add a great outfit, a touch of red lipstick, and you’re ready to take on anything — wrapped in scent and style, quite literally.
