EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the 1850s offers a rare glimpse into the intriguing world of perfume distillation, as practiced by A. Rowland & Son of Hatton Garden, London. The image showcases the meticulous process of extracting the essence of fragrant flowers, transforming them into precious perfume. The heart of the scene is occupied by a large copper still, its tubes and pipes gleaming with condensation. Surrounding the still are shelves filled with an array of glass jars, each one holding a different type of flower or botanical ingredient. The delicate petals of roses, jasmine, and orange blossoms are artfully arranged, waiting to be infused with water and heated to release their intoxicating aromas. The chemist, dressed in a white lab coat and goggles, carefully monitors the distillation process, ensuring that each step is executed with precision. The steam rises from the still, carrying the fragrant compounds upwards, where they are collected and condensed, forming the precious perfume. The Victorian era was a time of great innovation and progress in the perfume industry, and this photograph provides a fascinating window into the art and science of perfume production during that era. The distillation process, with its combination of artistry, chemistry, and tradition, continues to be an essential part of perfume making today.
