OMG, I used to LOVE this. It had Sooty on the box didn't it?

The Body Shop of the 80s. Stubby opaque bottles with basic green labels and a black lid, in three or four different sizes, an excellent range of henna powders, plus the perfumed oil stand (dewberry, cinnamon and vanilla oils for me, plus occasional white musk and fuzzy peach). I used to make special trips up to York to shop in the Coppergate branch before Orchard Square opened. Such a shame that its products are now almost indistinguishable from most other mid-price toiletry ranges.

 

 

I used to go here. Do you remember when the York branch was in a tiny little shop on Petergate, I think it was about here on the corner:

It was Japanese Musk for me.

 

They've recently brought back some perfume oils, but they've not got the "floor 'em from 20 paces pungency" that they used to have!

Fry's Five Boys chocolate bars.

 

Was that the one with different flavours of fondant in each bar? (like lime, raspberry)?

There used to be a peppermint one too in a green wrapper, not seen that for a while.
