Vintage Chic for Mother’s Day



These are certainly a blast from the 80's and making an impact as are the clothes and music again.
The bottles and packaging very much up to date yet the fragrances still the same.
From Tweed that always seemed a favourite of the business woman, think shoulder pads and power dressing to the Papa Don't Preach lace ribbons in the hair and scent of Chique perfume, for me it seemed very T'Pauesque

I was too young for these sprays but used to always sneak a squirt of Panache from the Boots counter.


Who has fond or negative memories of the retro scents?

Classic fragrances are making a comeback. Sales of perfumes that evoke nostalgic memories have increased by up to 50%* in the past year and vintage hues have never been so chic. This Mother’s Day treat your mum to a timeless treat with these exclusive gift sets.


Originally launched in 1924 by Lentheric, Tweed is a sensuous woody fragrance with floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom that add an intoxicating feminine touch. An English Icon in perfumery, it has a distinct resinous quality that evokes earthy-woody mystique. Base notes of Patouchli and vetiver form an alluring oriental depth creating the perfect balance of natural essences.
