London's Meadham Kirchhoff’s catwalks have been scented by Penhaligon’s for the past nine seasons. The designers themselves have chosen a diverse selection of scents to represent their collections, including Hammam Bouquet, Bluebell, Castile, English Fern and Cornubia. Now Penhaligon's is joining forces with Edward Meadham and Benjamin Kirchoff for the duo's first fragrance. Master perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour immersed himself in the fashionable world of the designers' East London studio to create Tralala , an opulent perfume that evokes the glamour and whimsy favoured by Meadham Kirchhoff.

From Meadham Kirchoff's Spring/ Summer 2013 Fashion show
I love this bottle, it really captures the eccentric girly quirkiness of Meadham and Kirchoff, although I suspect others will find it a bit out of Penhaligon's brand image. I am trying to picture Bertrand Duchaufour in the world of London Fashion, surrounded by a bevy a models and that delights me.
