The origin of the Woods of Windsor luxury bath, body & homes brand comes from a small apothecary located in the shadow of Windsor as far back as 1770. This local apothecary served not only the townsfolk of Windsor, but also the Royal family and its distinguished visitors.

In 1970 Roger and Kathleen Knowles acquired the run-down pharmacy, then known as the Woods pharmacy. Whilst clearing out two centuries of debris, which had been allowed to accumulate by previous managements, they discovered a treasure trove of old recipe and prescription books and medical artefacts which dated all the way back to the founding of the business. Many of the books contained recipes for perfumery products, which had been associated with the business and sold to the residents of Windsor over the years. This very special revelation motivated Roger and Kathleen to create a range of perfumery and toiletry products using these original formularies.

In spring 2013 Woods of Windsor re-launches its range of bath, body and home fragrance products with brand new eye-catching packaging that captures the essence of the brand; new larger sizes offering greater value and savings to consumers; and three new, contemporary and on-trend scents to sit alongside their current portfolio of core floral fragrances.
