Our Story

Some years back, on assignment in Morocco, Q founder Quentin Bacon pulled from his camera bag a bottle of hotel moisturizer to use on his hands — and was promptly chided by a local villager.

“Would you eat that?” the man asked. “Then why would you put it on your skin?”

In a country where argan oil has been enjoyed in food long before it was exported for beauty, this simple, yet profound principle somehow caught Quentin by surprise.

A renowned photographer, who had traveled the world documenting the best in beauty, food, fashion, and lifestyle for VOGUE Entertaining, VOGUE Australia, VOGUE Living, Harper’s Bazaar, and Gourmet Magazine, among others… arrived at the realization — in a village between Casablanca and Marrakech — that sometimes, the truest luxuries are provided by Mother Nature.

For the past ten years, following the man’s philosophy, Quentin has developed his product. Natural luxury is at the heart of Q, and the romance of exploration its soul, with precious organic ingredients that reflect the richness of the diverse lands where they are sourced.

Handmade in small batches in the Berkshires, Q’s luxuries for body and home represent premium quality, offering a nourishing sensory experience for your whole self.

The finest organic oils, beeswax, and lanolin.
