Miller Harris has one of my favourite fragrance stores in London, as soon as the door opens you are greeted with some of the most amazing scents, including one of my favourites Secret Gardenia. I was very kindly sent two products from the new sustainable bath and body collection and my gosh are they just divine, I could smell them before I opened the box that they arrived in!
Never have I smelt a soap as amazing as this one. The Miller Harris Rhubarb and Peony Soap (£20) is literally just incredible. It is as you can see on a rope, so mine now hangs just above my sink, no one who enters my bathroom will miss seeing it or smelling it, infact my whole bathroom is now the Rhubarb and Peony scent, which is much more pungent than my expensive Reed Diffuser from a well known brand!
Inspired by LOST from the FORAGE collection, Rhubarb and Peony Soap on a Rope combines British rapeseed oil with coconut oil, organic Shea butter, glycerine and vitamin E to leave the skin cleansed and moisturised.
On the skin, it creates an amazing lather, which only works to intensify that scent of fresh Rhubarb and Peony and it leaves my skin feeling so soft and smooth. I have used this as an alternative to shaving gel as well as to wash my hands, but even if you don't use it, the scent is strong enough that you could just use it to scent the bathroom/W.C or even your kitchen!
The second product from the Miller Harris bath and body collection is the Rose Silence Body Cream (£35 for 175ml) and again, the scent is just beautiful.
I adore the scent of fresh roses, but I am quite picky about it. I don't like the manufactured rose scent, it is too sweet and sickly. This body cream is about as fresh rose scented as anything I have ever tried, it reminds me of that fragrance you get from rose buds as they have opened and with it comes the ripe freshness of blackcurrants which really intensify the fragrance.
For me, I have to really like a body cream to use it and this tub I can confirm is now almost empty because I have used it every single night after showering. This Rose Silence Body Cream nourishes the skin with shea butter, coconut oil and organic argan oil which work alongside vitamin E, vitamin B5 and white tea extract. Not only does my skin feel smooth and moisturised, the fresh scent lingers and in a morning you can still catch the scent, though it has almost disappeared. If you choose to use it during the daytime, then again, the scent lingers on the skin, paired with the Miller Harris Rose Silence fragrance, which I am lucky to also own, the pair together are quite the force, both complimenting one another.
If Miller Harris isn't a brand you are familiar with, then it is one you need to get to know. Founded by Lyn Harris in 2000, she is described as being a determined and self-possessed woman pursuing a passion for perfume. A storyteller in scent, Lyn was one of the first female master perfumers.
