Peak poncetastic

There was a funny thread a while ago about poncy toiletries and assorted bathroom fripperies. Looking for a 'fancy' candle for a friend and I think I've found the winner. Each one is worth a read. Enjoy. [santa]

How sad am I to find that quite a turn on Confused - the hint of a riding crop, the rip of a corset strings....

DH, where are you.....?????

Wow, all of that from some wax with fragrance oils in. Incredible.

IKR? It is fabulous. They all have their own Cartlandesque narrative, do have a look. I'm totally buying 'Touche Bois' btw. Grin

Bumping this cos it's very funny. (disclaimer, I do not work for poncetastic candles).

I think they MIGHT have been written by someone with a native language other than English

BringMeTea · 03/12/2018 19:20

Yeah I thought that but it appears to be a London company so, why? I mean I'm so glad they did. I think 'Julia' is becoming a favourite.

Cripes. Did Barbara Cartland write that?

LonnyVonnyWilsonFrickett · 03/12/2018 19:32

That's so poncetastic but also intriguing. It's been written in English but with no grammar, yet it's reasonably sophisticated. I wonder if she's just sent an audio file of words to someone for typing and hasn't had it edited?

GraceMarks · 03/12/2018 19:45

Does Touche Bois mean "a touch of wood" btw? That would add a whole other layer of wrongness wouldn't it.

Wow there’s a lot of “rumpled sheets” and barefoot lovers going on! I’ll take a Touche Bois and a Cuir Sacre please!Blush
