... You'll discover Aesop's new 'punnet-sized' (as they put it) store.
We've always bought into Aesop's philosophy. As they put it, 'We advocate the use of our formulas as part of a balanced ife that includes exercise, stimulating literature and good food and wine.' (And so say all of us.)
This Australian aromatherapy-powered skincare range (which we've been fans of since they very first launched, oh, aeons ago) also has a reputation for creating funky spaces. And this is entirely in keeping, with its haberdasher's counter, reclaimed wood floor - and basins, so you can try the products before you buy.
Afterwards, as Aesop points out, you can revive yourself with a short black from Monmouth Coffee across the road, and/or nibble on a wedge of aged Cheddar from Neal's Yard Dairy.
Appropriate setting for their latest store, then, for a range that's almost good enough to eat.
Aesop Borough Market, 5 Park Street, London SE1 9AB
