In 2019, Nacho launched a range of six different perfumes inspired by his travels around the world – including one called ‘Windsor’. The professional polo player presented his products on December 11, 2019 at Bergdorf Goodman in New York
At the members-only sports club, Prince Harry competed with Nacho in a charity polo match in August.

Neiman Marcus VIP tickets also include entry to a star-studded polo match, which the buyer can watch from their own tent while being served champagne and canapés.

In 2019, Nacho launched a range of six different perfumes inspired by his travels around the world – including one called ‘Windsor’ which he hoped would evoke “paradise feelings of every kind”.
The box for the ‘Windsor’ perfume also seems to hint at the importance of his relationship with Prince Harry, bearing the words: ‘The Brotherhood of Kindred Spirits’.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the fragrances went to Prince Harry’s charity Sentebale.
The father-of-four attended the royal wedding in 2018 and continued to play alongside Harry in the US for their Santa Barbara-based team Los Padres.
Over the years, the 45-year-old has been a vocal supporter of the couple amid reports of a rift within the royal family.
Speaking of his friendship with the king, Nacho told Town and Country magazine in 2019: “What I like most about him is how real he is and how serious he is about improving the lives of children who aren’t the had blessings that we have had.’
That same year, Nacho appeared on The Ellen Show hosted by Ellen DeGeneres and announced that he would “defend his friends with his life.”
During the interview, he also described Meghan as “amazing” and revealed how she “gave up everything for the man she loves”.
