Who we are

We are a small company based near Sherborne Dorset.

When I say small I mean me… & my cat Booga!

I’m a packaging designer with a soft spot for greeting cards, and somewhere along the way, the two worlds collided—one of the delightful results? Salty Notes.

Friends and family can’t get enough of sending and receiving Salty Notes, so I figured it was time to introduce them to the great, big world. Be kind to me, world…

I handcraft the shower salts and candles in my cozy little studio, where my home is constantly filled with their wonderful aromas. Out of the MANY creations I’ve whipped up, I’ve narrowed it down to just three for the big website launch:

Un-plugged – Soft, herbal lavender meets the zesty clarity of lemon in this refreshing, restorative blend. It’s the scent of switching off and slowing down. Clean, calm, and effortlessly uplifting. Step in the shower, breathe deep, and let the noise fade away.

Sanctuary – Wrap yourself in warmth with this soul-soothing blend of spiced cinnamon sticks and comforting cloves, gently brightened by sweet bursts of juicy orange. Like a hug in scent form, it’s nostalgic, calming, and endlessly cosy. Your personal retreat from the world, one shower at a time.

Restoration – A scent that feels like sinking into a vintage leather armchair after a long day. Rich tobacco leaf, warm cedarwood, and smooth leather create a luxurious yet rugged base, while a whisper of grapefruit lifts the mood with a subtle, modern twist. It’s grounding, refined, and quietly powerful, like hitting reset in the most stylish way.

So, what’s the deal with the shower bags?

WELL… while developing Salty Notes, I stumbled upon a surprising fact: less than 50% of people take baths (shocking, I know), and most prefer showers. My grand bath-salt plans were momentarily dashed—until I had a lightbulb moment. Why not use the salts in the shower? Turns out, you can still enjoy all the benefits of the salts (including those heavenly scents, just saying...) in a shower!

But how? Enter: Shower Bags. These biodegradable bags hold the salts and work as a gentle exfoliator as you rub the bag all over your body under a steamy, relaxing shower. Yes, I know—genius!

Now you can turn your everyday shower into a spa experience. You’re welcome.
