If you love gin and tonic, this is something really fun: Amsterdam-based perfume label Abel Odor and gin brand Tanqueray are launching a home fragrance today with the subtle scent of the iconic London Dry Gin: the Elevating Room Scent.

Here at the editorial office, we’ve had a major crush on gin and tonic for years. Baking with gin and tonic, why not? (Tip: try this gin and tonic cake). A gin and tonic at a party? Yes, please! Sleeping in a gin hotel? YES! A living room fragrance that smells like gin? YES!

Juniper and liquorice

Master perfumer Isaac Sinclair used the finest essential oils to develop a fragrance featuring the four main ingredients of Tanqueray’s London Dry Gin: juniper, angelica root, coriander and liquorice. The result is a fresh and invigorating perfume.

Close your eyes and think of the first sip

‘The Elevating Room Scent is vibrant and fresh. A bit like the first sip of a perfectly mixed gin and tonic at sunset, on a terrace near the woods,’ says the master perfumer. It costs a little, but it is a unique fragrance. The Elevating Room Scent costs 100 euros and is available exclusively via DeBijenkorf.nl and AbelOdor.com.

And don’t accidentally drink your home fragrance after a few too many cocktails, okay?
