Sparkles - Our Shop

This is the twinkling diamante scent from our House of Burlesque collection.

Imagine the aroma of twinkling diamante, lustrous pearls and sparkling sequins. If they had a fragrance, this would be it. A flash of shining aldehydes, neroli and bergamot illuminates a refreshing spring scent of mock orange blossom. A perfume to put you centre stage and place you in the spotlight.

A clean, clear and bright eau de parfum for added shine and brilliance. Dancing on its tiptoes.

We have placed tassels on these beautiful new bottles to add an extra bit of dazzle – and fun, since we’re yet to meet anyone who can pick up the bottle without trying a little tasseltwirl. Sarah has become pretty good at it.

• Notes: Citrus, aldehydes, neroli, bergamot, mock orange blossom and spotlight.
• Ingredients: Alcohol (denat), Parfum, Linalool, Limonene, Geraniol, Citral.

Skin is suitable for vegans

"Christ in a handbasket. Each time I smell this I feel like my day has been made. Like life does not get better than when I am sniffing this. Mock Orange Blossom does not sound super amazing, and yet... here we are. 
It is bright, pearlescent, feels exquisitely simple, a little clean (which does not usually happen with orange blossom) and bloody stunning. Getting a bottle is going to ruin me, but it's worth it. Someone I know has a sister who is visiting Scotland and so she is bringing a bottle back. 10/10" - Clare Presser

“It definitely SPARKLES ✨✨✨✨✨” - Pat Waddington

The story behind the House of Burlesque collection

In 2023, Sarah was accepted on a wonderful business course for small creative companies, run by the British Library Business and IP Centre. There she met the inspiring Tempest Rose, founder of House of Burlesque, and this is from her manifesto:

"We believe that beauty and brains can be celebrated together and we reject the notion that beauty only comes in one size, colour or shape. We believe everyone can find their unique power, and should be free to style it how they wish, cover it in crystals, and shine without fear or judgement."

House of Burlesque is supported by the UK Arts Council, runs regular shows and classes for everyone who wants to discover their own unique power. 

So naturally Sarah and Tempest Rose decided to capture this feeling in a fragrance collection.

We asked our wonderful community to get involved by running a crowdfunding campaign. It was a huge success and today we have the House of Burlesque collection. Thank you to everyone who supported us and helped to bring confidence, empowerment, and pure entertainment into a collection of fragrances.

“Loving Sparkles. It makes me think of those fizzy waters like DASH that mostly taste of carbonated water, where the added 'flavour' is less a taste and experienced more as a scent.” - Charlie Emma

“I love Sparkles so much - sweet and effervescent and slightly tart but with an almost bakery smell, like a raspberry and lemon tart sprinkled in sugar” - Helen Louise

“Fresh, clean, citrus, perhaps a bit of aldehydes. Reminiscent of the fresh DNA in Freeway and Hammersmith Tea & Biscuits, the more purified version. Also gives a bit of a fragrance enhancer on its own vibe, but quite excellent on its own” -  Eric Riviello
