Posh & Brats

UK fans might already be cognizant of this, but I thought I’d natter on a bit for the rest of you.

So not too long ago I designed a couple of fragrances for Posh Brats. Between their fabulously scandalous logo and similar vision for bringing incredible bath stuff to The Universe, they’re a joy to work with. I didn’t have to scrounge very hard for inspiration.

First, Posh! “The pinnacle of sophistication. A rich heart of dragon’s blood resin, white peach, and crushed pomegranate washed with sheer plumeria and lightly spiced with sarsparilla.”

This is my new personal favourite. What the official description doesn’t tell you, is that laced between the resins and spice and dripping peaches is the tiniest touch of our sweat single note. So once the pom and plumeria and their effervescence has left the building, you’re left w/ a subtle sort of warm skin scent. I’ve been stashing this one - dipping into the lotion, dabbing the perfume, soaking in an entire tub of Posh bubbles. And the soap!

Yes - you’re right. That’s a ridiculous shade of violet smothered in gilt. Luscious, yeah?

Predictably then, there’s Brats! “Ribbon candy spliced with butterscotch, salted caramels and a resinous melange of sticky sweets.” When I say “spliced” there, I mean it. Lemme show you the soap first:

This one is just yummy and indulgent and the sort of thing that would tug the fillings out of your teeth with its stickiness while simultaneously creating new cavities with its sweetness. I had a ton of fun creating this stripey soap and the Smooch! for this one features something like 4 different sugars PLUS pink sugar sparkles. Definitely one of our better concoctions.

Enjoy! Find them only at Posh Brats!

Oh, how I wish these soaps were available in the US. The scent description for Posh sounds absolutely divine (a little like my beloved Trauma) and I love the gilt and glitter. Very cool design with Brats - it must have been so time consuming!

Hello!!!

Brittany here…owner of Posh Brats. I wanted to add my two cents in here. We are THRILLED with these new scents. They are amazing and already flying off the shelves!!

Every peson that has walked into our shop since we put them out three days ago has left with a slab of soap or some other goodie with the new scents!

That’s no huge surprise really because Villainess is the TOP seller in our boutique over every product we have.

We do ship worldwide and right now the dollar to pound ratio is quite good for you US shoppers.

Thanks, Brooke!! This is just thrilling!
