Waitrose Hot Curry and hand wash Gel at The White Company Shop's cooling Perfumed Hand Wash in Marylebone High Street

The White Shop sells aromatic soaps (£6) and shower gels and room refreshers. 

My favourites include Seychelles. It's rather expensive for every day but if you are looking for a birthday, wedding anniversary, or Christmas present and want something small enough to go in a Christmas stocking, here's one answer.

The household items include a spray or an infuser with what looks like incense sticks. Very good if you've had somebody smoking or causing another unpleasant smell (a dog, a person, mould, an empty house, for house owners, parents, morning after the party before. Also useful for a landlord freshening up for house viewings when renting looking for a new tenant - or a letting agent. A cheaper version is from IKEA.) The White Shops's rose and lavender are good.

An assistant will locate the tester for the aroma you want and spray onto your hand or hers or a piece of paper.

Waitrose Hot Food
Across the road from the White Company is a Waitrose supermarket. This branch does not have a cafe. (If you want a cafe, there's on in the Waitrose almost opposite South Harrrow station - about 500 metres from that station.). However, the Marylebone branch has a counter serving takeaway hot Indian food, rice and curries, at reasonable prices.

If you want to sit down for coffee between Marylebone High Street and Baker Street station, see my next post about Moxon street, a few paces further, offering meat and pies at The Ginger Pig, fresh fruit, cheeses, and cake and coffee at La Fromagerie, and chocolates at Rococo.
