Prosody London

Prosody London is a British fragrance brand launched in early 2018 by Kershen Teo and Paul Vinogradoff, following preparation during 2017. Its official launch took place at Fortnum & Mason in February 2018. Teo is the brand’s founder and perfumer; born in Singapore, he turned to natural perfume after discovering a severe allergy to synthetic ingredients. Nature informs the brand’s creative direction, with the beauty of nature and English cottage-garden planting identified as influences on its approach. The name “Prosody” refers to the structure and rhythm of poetry, a connection linked to the changing character of natural materials. The opening collection comprised six perfumes, spanning Neroli Nuance to Oud Octavo. In 2019, Lantern Reed added an experimental fragrance inspired by summer nights in the countryside of East Asia.
