From a small, family business to an international luxury brand. Crabtree & Evelyn was founded in 1972 by Cyrus Harvey. The name was inspired by John Evelyn, a 17th century botanist, and the English Crabapple tree, known for its beauty and medicinal properties.
The first store he opened specialized in soaps, from all over the world. That's where it all started. One man's passion for travel combined with an innate desire for natural products, lays the groundwork for the creation of a famous brand in perfumes, skin care products and more.
Cyrus collects soaps and lotions from small producers from all over the world. From a small store selling an eclectic collection of fine soaps, Crabtree & Evelyn has grown into a strong retail presence in over 65 countries and over 200 retail stores.
Crabtree & Evelyn's motto “explore everything, keep the best” remains at the heart of the brand today.
Meal Soaps were the first products to be launched by the brand and these have evolved over the years into a range of soaps that are also available during the day. These soaps feature a unique Crabapple & Mulberry Black Sea Mud & Seaweed fragrance. The survey expanded to include English floral waters, colognes, shower gels and men's colognes. The use of natural ingredients continued with the introduction of gourmet products, confectionery, biscuits, tea the brand extends into gastronomy with great appeal.
The company continues to draw inspiration from the rich heritage and knowledge of plants and plant products while simultaneously pioneering new discoveries.
Today the Crabtree & Evelyn range consists of perfumes, shower products, soaps, lotions, spa products, creams and more.
The ethos of the company is to look for the most beneficial ingredients inspired by nature to create a range of products that make a difference. A blend of the best of nature and science, combined with tradition and innovation.
