Nantucket Briar by Crabtree & Evelyn Highly Recommended by Whom You Know-A Wonderful Fragrance that Spells Summer Says Peachy!

Surely if it is noon in New York and you're reading us, you're at lunch escaping the perils of your day occupation, just dying to escape and get away to sunnier shores. We can't promise a ticket to a beach, but we can linguistically attempt to get you in a beachy state of mind! We are very into seasonal products during the four seasons we enjoy (or in the case of winter, not enjoy) in the Northeast, and today's feature is a classic by Crabtree & Evelyn: Nantucket Briar! A nostalgic blend of briar roses, bergamot, fresh greens, amber and vanilla, Nantucket Briar evokes the sweet smell of a Northeastern seaside village at the peak of its season. It is potently fragrant without being overwhelming. Its versatility make it equally pleasing for a day at work (and we suggest a bottle in your desk hidden from superiors for that occasional spray to perk up your day!). The triple-milled soap unwrapped in your drawers adds a terrific scent to your clothes, and when you lather up with it layering with the perfume it is a winning combination. Whom You Know Highly Recommends Nantucket Briar! We can't get you to Nantucket during your lunch hour, but we can get you to a website where you can capture the spirit and bring it to New York:

Crabtree & Evelyn

Founded in 1972 by Cyrus Harvey, Crabtree & Evelyn has evolved from a small, family-run business – specializing in fine soaps from around the world – to an international company, well known and respected for its original fragrances, luxurious toiletries, gourmet foods - and gifts for those who enjoy a sophisticated lifestyle.Everyday Luxury, Beautiful Gifts®

Long before the natural and wellness movement became popular, Crabtree & Evelyn was wholeheartedly embracing the riches of the natural world, introducing product ranges made with fruit, flower and plant essences. We are dedicated to creating products and gifts that transform the ordinary rituals of daily life into extraordinary pleasurable experiences, and deliver upon our goal of Preserving A Fine Tradition ®.John Evelyn

Crabtree & Evelyn is inspired by John Evelyn, a 17th Century Englishman who was a visionary of his time. One of the first naturalists and conservationists, Evelyn traveled Europe experiencing the wonderful cultures and natural environments which he shared with his friends in British society. His great estate, Sayes Court, was planted with large expanses of elm trees, and the magnificent gardens Evelyn created were a wonder of the age. The diary of John Evelyn is a remarkable picture of 17th life, both in England and on the continent. Evelyn’s personal motto “Explore everything. Keep the best.” has provided inspiration from our founding to this day.The Crab Apple Tree Symbol

Our icon, the Crab Apple Tree (Pyrus malus), is native to Britain and the ancestor of all cultivated apple trees. Prized for its lovely form and its usefulness in the home apothecary, the Crab Apple Tree represents beauty and the natural goodness inherent in our brand.The Still Room

Our inspirational model is the early home apothecary, or ‘still room’ as it was called in England. Still rooms existed at a time when the garden played an integral role in daily life – a time when fresh flowers, herbs and fruits from the gardens and orchards were distilled to make fragrant waters for the bath and soothing essences for the skin. Fruit preserves were also created to brighten the winter larder. From the magic of the still room came the little luxuries and necessities that enhanced the quality of everyday life. This innovative spirit, built on the foundation of Crabtree & Evelyn’s rich heritage and relationship to the garden, inspires us today.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
