El Encanto

When El Encanto, a Belmond Hotel and one of California’s most indulgent hideaways, wanted a partner who truly understood their region, we were eager to drive up the coast. Gazing across the Pacific, exploring the property’s seven acres of lush, terraced gardens, and greeted with the sweet scents of neroli, roses, jasmine, and lavender, the inspiration for this collection bloomed.

The Strategy

Draw inspiration from Santa Barbara's natural beauty and the property’s distinct coastal grounds with the Citrus Garden collection, featuring natural formulations infused with oils such as California orange, lemon, lavender, and rosemary.

Deliver rich, luxurious natural formulations with botanical extracts like coriander, pomegranate, cucumber, and rosemary to echo the feeling of indulgence guests enjoy at this exclusive Pacific retreat.

Celebrate the property’s perfectly blended ethos of a rich legacy and modern luxury with packaging design that is at the same time classically elegant and sleek.

In the city that birthed the original Earth Day, reduce plastic and paper waste by more than 90% with refillable, recyclable bottles made from 30% post-consumer recycled materials.

The Results

Santa Barbara's Essence Captured: Inspired by the serene beauty of El Encanto, Citrus Garden’s ingredients and 100% natural oil scent blend provide a sensory connection to the region and a direct connection to the property’s extensive gardens.

“The scent of El Encanto” is an unforgettable one—the unique blend of beauty and fragrance found throughout the gardens of El Encanto will forever create an indelible memory.

Client Testimonials

“Prior to working with LATHER my one concern was could they produce a product that was luxurious enough whilst still maintain a chemical, paraben-free approach. Having tried a few sample products from the LATHER line I was very quickly reassured that this would not be the case with them!

The custom process was very easy. We have an amazing bathroom amenity program as a result of working with LATHER. We continue to receive requests from guests to purchase the product to use at home. There is no better indicator of a great product.”
