In honor of the 200th anniversary of Charles Dickens’ birth, which was yesterday, we decided to highlight another native of the UK, one of our new lines of product called Pecksniff’s. The UK isn’t the only thing these two have in common, Pecksniff is actually the last name of several characters in Charles Dickens’ 1843 novel Martin Chuzzlewit.

Pecksniff’s, situated in the heart of the Old Lanes area of Brighton, is one of the last independent British Fragrance and Cosmetic House. Their fragrances “embody a passion for quality and exclusivity.”

The perfect gift to give your Valentine, our Pecksniff’s products are renowned for their “quality, sophistication and creativity and are made from the purest ingredients and finest quality oils, sourced from all over the world.” You don’t  have to travel all the way to Brighton to enjoy these imported scents. Stop by The Mercantile today to see our selection or you can visit our online store at taigan.com/shops/themercantile.
