Eau de Bordure – Essence testing

Stephen Turner requests the pleasure of your company to test Eau de Bordure a new sense of the fringelands distilled from distinctive local flora.  Many aromatic plants from the urban edges have been sampled to formulate the essence of the fringe. Local rose, mugwort and golden samphire (not populous in Britain except on the Isle of Sheppey) and many other scents await assessment prior to the formulation of a unique eau de toilette; a rescue remedy for the misunderstood and sometimes forlorn landscapes around the edges of Sittingbourne and the Medway Towns. Stephen has been guided by Faith, Hope and Charity, three fly tipped dolls from Sittingbourne who will make a guest appearance.
