Pommade Divine was created in 1800 by London chemists Butler and Co., who would become the official chemists to the royal family. It was based on a traditional recipe for a cure-all salve that dates back to the first century A.D. Its popularity spread throughout the 19th century and by 1910 it was said that there was a “pot of Butler’s Pommade Divine with every nanny in every nursery.” Today, it retains its original recipe formulated with 97% natural ingredients.
