Memorial Art
Some legacies outlast a ceremony. A scent, a portrait, a film, a piece of art, something that holds a person's presence long after they are gone.
Cafe Mortel commissions bespoke memorial works for those who have been lost, and for those who want to define their own legacy while they are still here.
Become a Book
Cafe Mortel designs and produces bespoke commemorative books built from the archive of a life. Photographs, writing, artwork, collections, correspondence. Anything that captures who someone was, bound into something that can be kept, shared and passed down.
A book can be made for someone you have lost, or commissioned while you are still here. Recipes, travels, poems, jokes, sayings, advice. Everything that makes our life documenting.
Book Design — from £3,500

Become a Scent
In collaboration with master perfumer Azzi Glasser, we offer an intimate exploration of olfactory legacy. As the architect behind The Perfumer's Story and creator of signature scents for Helena Bonham Carter and Orlando Bloom, Glasser's artistry transcends traditional perfumery, her bespoke creations have graced the silver screen and the world's most private collections.
Through Cafe Mortel, your scent becomes more than fragrance. It transforms into a living artifact that persists beyond your presence, a fragrance DNA print, built from rare ingredients sourced across the world, that captures your character, personality and style in a form that endures.
Bespoke scent – from £18,000
