Crabtree & Evelyn is a British-heritage beauty brand founded in 1971, its name a tribute to John Evelyn, the 17th-century English diarist and passionate gardener. Inspired by time-honoured herbal remedies and the natural world, the brand brought together luxury skincare, fragrant bath products, and fine food under one botanically minded roof. Their range covered everything from gift sets and colognes to organic preserves, making it a popular choice for treating yourself or finding a thoughtful present.
At the heart of the Crabtree & Evelyn range was a commitment to natural ingredients drawn from flowers, herbs, and botanical extracts. Products for her included moisturisers, bath soaks, and body lotions designed to leave skin soft and lightly scented. For him, the range offered colognes and grooming products built around masculine natural fragrances. Collections were frequently refreshed with seasonal scents and limited-edition formulas, giving regular customers new reasons to explore.
Crabtree & Evelyn became well known for beautifully presented gift sets, making their products a go-to choice for birthdays, Christmas, and other occasions. Alongside the skincare and fragrance lines, the brand also offered a curated selection of fine food — jams, biscuits, teas, and other teatime classics that reflected the same appreciation for natural, quality ingredients found throughout the rest of their range.
Despite their luxury positioning, Crabtree & Evelyn regularly featured sales and promotional offers that made the range accessible to a wider audience.
