Fragrance Butlers Bring you The Perfume Menu on a Silver Tray {Fragrance News}

rosewood_perfume_butler.jpgRosewood Hotels are going against the grain of the trend set by some public perfume phobes. They have created a new service meant to associate perfume and luxury even more explicitly than usual by offering to cater to the traveler's essence whims. Fragrance butlers will now bring you a silver perfume tray to your door covered with an assortment of fragrances for you to choose from, if you so desire...

 

"Within five minutes of receiving a call to the concierge to request the service, a fragrance butler arrives at a room, carrying a silver tray of perfumes and colognes. Guests spritz themselves with a scent from the fragrance menu, which is tailored to each hotel.  (The Carlyle, for example, has an elegant, old-world feel, and the choices include Chanel Chance and Hermès Eau des Merveilles for women and Ralph Lauren Polo Black for men.) There is no limit to the number of times that the fragrance butler can be summoned."
