The Story Behind Trumpers Famous Pink Label It has been asked so often, "why does Trumpers Extract of Limes have a pink label?" During the Great War (1914-1918) supplies of the correct paper dried up and the only alternative available to Trumpers was pink, so pink it became and it has remained so ever since. The story does help to explain the Trumper Tradition, where a product such as Extract of Limes can be of such excellent quality that it has remained virtually unchanged since the famous pink label was first introduced. A Trumper original. Zesty, refreshing and always a best seller at The Gentleman's Groom Room. 1) Limes Eau de Toilette - Floris Part of The Floris Classics range which maps the perfumed pathways of English perfumery as explored by generations of the Floris family since the company's inception in 1730. Each fragrance within the classics range was created before 1900 and the scents are held up as exemplary within the Floris repertoire for truly standing the test of time. Limes the original Floris classic was created by Juan Floris in the late 18th century to combat the oppressive heat of the City in summer. A vibrant burst of the zest of lemon accompanied by petitgrain introduces the refreshing heart of lime blossom, neroli and lily of the valley sustained by a musky base. Floris Limes was highly commended by GQ Magazine at their recent Mens Gooming Awards and was shortlisted for Classic Fragrance of the Year in the 2009 UK Beauty Awards.
