Royal Apothic is a brand that was not created as much as it was discovered. Creative Director Sean O'Mara spent his career in the beauty industry working with some of the world's top beauty brands. On a sabbatical in London, he came upon a book tucked high on a shelf in a forgotten Notting Hill antique stall. This hidden treasure revealed itself to be an apothecary manual from the eighteenth century. Listed within its pages were the formulas of concoctions created for many of the great monarchies of Europe.

Knowing he could tie his own expertise into the formulas, he returned to the U.S. and began duplicating the fragrances listed within the manual. Royal Apothic began with a simple book and is now one of the fastest growing lifestyle brands in the modern era.
