Ancient Scents Of Time

A maverick fragrance-master David Pybus has traveled the globe and conducted some powerful research to bring you some truly unique scents that have until now been lost in time for centuries!

Imagine anointing yourself with the mystical, ancient and until now forgotten fragrances used by the elite during the glory days of Egypt, Pompeii and Mesoamerica. Well now you can! Painstaking Indiana Jones style tomb scouring, hieroglyphics deciphering and spore examining has culminated in the production of these beautifully packaged, re-created intoxicating fragrances from the long lost past. A booklet accompanies each scent detailing how the scent disappeared, was found and then cleverly re-created.

Don't just take our word for it, the famous Dragons Den investor Theo Paphitis was so taken with these fragrances he's gone and invested a small fortune in them! 4 perfumes are available - Phyxis, Nenufar, Ankh and Maya.

Solar Powered Plant Pot

As its name suggests, this stylish designer pot soaks up the sun's rays in order to charge an internal battery that powers several built-in LED's. As night falls the entire pot begins to glow, adding an enchanting touch of magic to your garden/patio. You can even choose between a pot that glows constant white or one that gently phases through a kaleidoscope of gorgeous colours.

But what if the pot is shaded by trees, walls or fences, we hear you ask? No problem because its solar cell is on a separate spike connected to the pot via a 3m cable. Simply stick it in the ground and hide the cable. Genius, and no mains wiring required. What's more the whole shebang is splashproof to protect against the gorgeous British summer!

Strawberry Shopper

Nowadays everyone is trying to be more environmentally conscious. We are recycling and trying to take reusable bags with us to the supermarket. But usually it’s a hassle to do that, reusable bags are large and generally ugly, they either don’t fit your handbag or if they do they take up all the space.

The solution is here however! One moment it’s a little strawberry fitting perfectly your handbag but by rolling it out you can reveal a shopping bag whenever you need one.

Extremely convenient and pretty!

Deal with your Arachnophobia at arms length with the Spider Catcher.

The Spider Catcher is basically a long pole with a handle and spiny bristles at the end. Pull the trigger and the bristles open, release the trigger and the bristles close allowing you to capture any wee beasties in your range without damaging them (though we can't be certain that it won't create any long-lasting psychological damage). Take the critter outside and you can release your prey without having to touch it with your hands.

Fantastic for wasps, bees and other stinging insects!

Joseph Joseph Chopping Board Index

In a neat ABS storage case that has a non-slip base, the four colour coded chopping boards have illustrated tabs labeling which board should be used for which food type (vegetables, fish, raw meat and cooked food).

Food hygiene is imperative in the kitchen as we all know. The problem is, when we are busy chopping away concentrating on our timing its not so easy to remember which board you chopped the steak on, which you diced your carrots on and which you left your raw prawns on... The results can be lets say... explosive!

The Index Chopping boards are a stylish solution.

Wild Hibiscus Flowers

There are several ways to enliven a glass of champagne but popping in a Wild Hibiscus Flower makes your average Kir Royale seem about as exciting as a pint of flat shandy. And that's because these amazing edible buds actually bloom into flowers when dropped in anything bubbly. Amazing!

As billions of bubbles stream off the bud it gradually opens up into a spectacular, crown-shaped flower. And when you've quaffed your champagne you can eat the booze-soaked bloom. No, really! It has a delicious raspberry and rhubarb flavour that complements champagne to perfection.
