Planting trees is just another form of green washing, in my opinion. I need a lot more information to decide if it's good or not. Where do you plant the trees? In what part of the world? What kind of trees do you plant? Native/non-native? How valuable is the biotope you're creating for local biodiversity? What is currently growing where you plant the trees? How will the trees affect local communities? Because trees are not always good for the environment. In temperate and boreal regions, grassland is in many ways better, both for biodiversity and climate.

yeah that's my issue with 99% of "sustainable" brands, sustainable really is just a word people use these days to sound good, the vast majority of brands that use it don't actually consider all the environmental challenges, nor come up with good plans to help the environment.

It does look like a load of knock off gear on a market stall. £100 plus for this. No thanks. Many women would think it was the cost price of £20-30

Every single clip I see with Steven Bartlett he ALWAYS interrupts touka whenever he speaks. Its really off putting to the point its obvious from watching multiple clips back to back. I'm unsure of the behind the scenes drama but it comes across unprofessional and very cliquey to the detriment of the show.

Why is the brand name Potion Paris? They were talking about inspiration from the Middle East so they just tried to seem fancy with the Paris thing? What connection does this have with Paris? Also Is tv shopping still a thing? I haven't watched tv for many years and I think most people hate that stuff.

The layering of fragrance isn’t unique to them either and I’m shocked none of the dragons challenged them on that. Layering fragrance with a body wash, body crème and multiple colognes is typical Jo Malone and not new

It’s funny how I got ad of Steven advertising huel

This is something you buy from Kmart or Target...hardly "luxury".

So happy for them. ✨💛🥰

Wrong choice. It was no luxury product and was fit for the shopping

Cheap products are suitable for cheap TV shopping. And this was perfect

Even I plant a tree, and i sell posters on ETSY, it cost me like max 50cents. So it's not a huge thing nowadays. Edit : I don't plant them myself, but there is company that does it.

The reason they're crappy is bc the vials are pre made bootlegs of the Christian Louboutin vials

He’s right …. Usually luxury products do have weight to them however if this is meant to be worn on the neck you wouldn’t want it to be mega heavy. Steven is awesome ! And I liked the personalisation idea - good luck to them ☺️

I just saw "Steven Smells" in one of the thumbnails and clicked through... :)

I would never buy anything from any company that Bartlet promotes or is involved with.

Love all the environmental words but where is the environment side. They lost me with Paris and sustainable. Its perfume, why not just say its perfume

I actually like Sara and I'm kinda disappointed when they turned down her offer. The boys stitched her up and that's disappointing. And what's with saying someone's product is rubbish and then offering them a deal to take a quarter of their business? Thats pure hypocrisy

Over-packaged consumer garbage is never environmentally friendly in anyway.

I like the concept BUT I can't get past how these vial 'vessels' look like cheap Christmas decorations from the dollar store. I LIKE heavy - I'd rather have smaller real metal vials filled with fragrant oils. Anodized titanium or niobium would offer pretty colour options.

lol Sarah sometimes give the best offers but still lose out to the others
