The (almost) daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 25 August 2020 6 Comments

Violet tea from the new Pantry Collection at Perfumer H (the brand Lyn Harris started after she sold Miller Harris), made in collaboration with Postcard Teas ("Tim carefully selected a First Flush (Spring) Darjeeling 2020, a Second Flush (Summer) Darjeeling 2019 and a Miaoli White Tip Oolong to complete this beautiful green fusion of fruits of blackcurrant, mandarin and bergamot fused with a floral heart of violet leaf and a hint of vanilla bourbon"). The 30g tin is £30 at Perfumer H.

    Nice! I so enjoyed my visit to the Perfumer H shop a few years ago. Excellent service there.

    I often pop into Postcard Teas, just off Oxford street, as they have a great range & very knowledgable staff. Similarly I often walk past Perfumer H on my way home & keep on walking as I know my bank manager would kill me if I ever went in !

    Still have quite a bit left of my tiny Rose Green sample picked up a few years ago at Perfumer H – you only need a couple of dabs & its staying power is excellent. Granted my fragrance use has been minimal since March & then the reimposed local lockdown here in Aberdeen, Scotland for the past 3 weeks which has just been lifted! Also familiar with Postcard Teas – remember seeking it out with my friend Marion, a complete tea fiend, on a London trip a very long time ago – she made more than a few “I’ve been on a trip so here’s a small gift for you” type purchases in that shop!
