Czech & Speake Oxford & Cambridge is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by John Stephen. Oxford & Cambridge opens with Bergamot, Rosemary, and Mint, settles into a heart of Lavender, and dries down to a base of Oakmoss. Czech & Speake's Oxford & Cambridge carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a clean, natural lavender done right, polarising only on performance rather than the scent itself. It's a proper aromatic breath of fresh air that's been begging for a full-throttle EDP since day one.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its soft projection and calming lavender-mint profile make it perfectly suited for office wear, not to mention a great casual go-to. While elegant enough, its laid-back nature and green-herbal freshness might not fit the most formal events, but it's sporty and versatile enough for most other settings.

About

Oxford & Cambridge opens with a bracing, cool blast of peppermint and rosemary, zinged by a hint of bergamot to keep it sharp and clean. This invigorating freshness soon mellows into a beautifully blended, herbal lavender heart, smelling wonderfully natural and refined. The dry-down gently introduces a soft, earthy oakmoss, providing a grounded, subtly woody finish that lingers close to the skin.
