Carter and Bond launch Notting Hill Store

by Grant Osborne, 30 September 2008

Men's fragrance and grooming retailer, Carter and Bond have transformed their online website into an offline store in London's Notting Hill. The store official opened in the summer and held a launch party earlier this month.

The website, carterandbond.com, was launched in 2001 and quickly found success with its mix of men's grooming essentials from brands such as Trumpers, Proraso, Baxter of California and Truefitt & Hill.

As well as stocking men's fragrance and grooming products, the store also carries men's gifts. Company founder, Joe Cotton said, "With the opening of our shop we have expanded beyond just grooming – now you will also find a carefully edited selection of hand-made wooden model planes and boats, solid pewter vintage racing cars, clockwork and battery-powered tin toys and robots, cufflinks and cufflink boxes, leather goods, prints, books, magazines and greetings cards… in short every non-essential a man simply must have!".
