Fairmont Hotel Riyadh hosts the tea with scones, sandwiches and scents.
Something sweet is brewing in Riyadh. The British fragrance brand Jo Malone London has teamed up with Fairmont Riyadh to create a scent-sational afternoon tea. Starting on Wednesday, 1 May, the experience blends luxurious scents and teas together.
Fairmont Riyadh’s Jo Malone London Afternoon Tea takes place in The Savoy Lounge. The menu includes Beef Bresaola with asparagus, mustard and cream cheese; Grilled Halloumi Cheese with pickled walnut and zucchini; and Salmon Éclair with cucumber and avocado. No afternoon tea is complete without scones, and this includes British-baked scones alongside Arabic delights.
Every visitor to the Jo Malone London Afternoon Tea in Riyadh will receive a gift set. This set includes sample-size fragrances and a gift voucher that can be redeemed in-store.
General Manager of Fairmont Riyadh, Rolf Lippuner, explained: “We are pleased to partner with Jo Malone London to offer our guests a truly unique and memorable experience. Combining the sophistication of Jo Malone London’s fragrances with the elegance of our newly renovated Savoy Lounge service creates a sensory experience unlike any other. We look forward to welcoming guests to indulge in this extraordinary collaboration.”
Jo Malone London was born in London, England. Created in 1990, it was founded by its namesake Joanne Lesley Malone. Despite having dyslexia and leaving school at 13 years old, she started her own business. The brand is famous for its candles, and also sells bath, body, cologne and home products. In 1999, the company was sold to Estee Lauder Companies, and Joanne went on to create a new line, Jo Loves.
The Jo Malone Afternoon Tea experience is available from 1 May to 31 July from 1pm to 7pm. The experience starts from SAR 250 per person.
