Patisserie De Bain is one of those brands that you didn't know you would love until you find them (run to Superdrug). Cute, kooky and a little bit quirky they are just a delight to have around with their sweet scents, nostalgic names and of course smelling good enough to eat.
This is what they say about themselves:
Sweet Scents from Patisserie de Bain Here at Patisserie de Bain we love to have a bit of fun. We inject a little of our quirky personality and retro style into every bath and body product and gift we create. Whether you need to rise and shine with the sweet burst of our Bath & Shower Crèmes, keep your skin silky soft with our glycerin-rich Patisserie de Bain Hand Creams or unwind with a handmade bath treat – you can be sure sweetness is always with you to brighten your mood and broaden your smile.
Bursting with happiness and nostalgia, our Patisserie de Bain sweet scents have a personality of their own. Will you fall head over heels for the free spirited Cranberries and Cream, the delightful Strawberry Cupcake, the classic Sugared Violet, the fresh-faced Lemon Bon Bon, the bold Sweet as Cherry Pie or the sunny outlook of Orange Crush? Or will our newest sweet scent Crème Patissière, our little romantic, capture your heart?
I am a huge fan of the brand and I love that they have scents that remind me of food and sweets and of course the packaging is simply delightful. There are little sets that make amazing gifts and then there are individual products which are an amazing treat or you can buy a few to make your own little gift set. Today I am sharing some of those with you.
The newest sweet scent, Crème Patissiere is inspired by traditional French confectionners creams and classic English vanilla custard. Sure to inject a little sweet luxury wherever your day may take you. In this package is a shower gel and body souffle along with a very handy to have shower puff.
You can never have too many handcreams and this little set, which has appeared on the blog before (here) is a delight to have around. They can also be purchased individually.
- Sweet as Cherry Pie is just stunning. It smell reminds me of fresh ripe cherries that have just been cooked in a pie as it happens and in the background is a slight sprinkling of vanilla to add to the sweetness.
- Cranberries and Cream is quite a sweet scent, much sweeter than I had anticipated and the fruity scent you associate with Cranberries is most definitely present with the cream part being much more dominant than in Sweet as Cherry Pie
- Sugar Rose is perhaps my favourite of the three, it combines rosehip, grapes and sugar cane which is just heavenly and for me the right sweetness to not be too vanilla based or too perfumed.
The final items to share with you are these two cute products which I think are my favourite from the collection so far.
The Strawberry Cupcake bath and shower cream is summer in a tube. The scent is a delicious blend of that British classic strawberries & cream and when it comes into contact with water and creates a lather, the scent is just divine. Sugared Violet hand and body lotion contains everything you need to keep hands and body moisturised. Using ingredients such as Beeswax, Shea and Cocoa Butter to hydrate and protect dry hands. I love the beautiful sweet scent of sugared violet which reminds me of those purple violet sweets you use to get in your 10p mix.
With prices for these products ranging from £2.99 right up to £9.99 you can buy some really nice products to create your own little gift hamper and it would make such a lovely treat that wouldn't break the bank.
