{"title":"Ortir Apothecari","description":"\u003cp\u003eOrtir Apothecari is an award-winning independent Welsh niche perfume house founded in May 2022 by artisan grower and perfumer Lisa Howarth. Its name comes from the Welsh \u003cem\u003eo'r tir\u003c\/em\u003e - \"of the land\" - and that is the whole proposition: classical fine fragrance technique built on raw botanicals grown and distilled on Howarth's own West Wales farm, including more than two acres of lavender and camphorous lavandin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowarth spent roughly a decade learning the local terrain through horticulture before turning to small-batch extraction and distillation, and she remains the nose and the hands behind every bottle - farming, distilling, blending and bottling herself. The result is what the house calls slow perfumery and purposeful luxury: place-led compositions that weave home-distilled rosemary, peppermint, rose and lemon geranium into the atmospheric realism of the Welsh countryside rather than reaching for globally sourced shortcuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Stillroom Apothecaries, we stock Ortir Apothecary because it is independent perfumery at its most grounded - one maker, one landscape, no compromise.
