From Molton Brown, a limited edition holiday hand wash: Marvellous Mandarin & Spice.

Speaking of toothpaste, new from Marvis: the Garden Collection, with three flavors, all with fluoride. "Sinuous Lily [shown above left] won’t purify your soul. But thanks to its perfect fusion of a white bouquet of lilies and the freshness of peppermint, for sure it will purify your mouth", "Don’t be fooled by the fine-fragrances-inspired look. Kissing Rose [shown above center] is a delicate bomb. Enjoy the floral encounter between the notes of Bulgarian Rose and a fresh hint of mint", and Dreamy Osmanthus [shown above right], "If mouth-perfume existed, this would be your favorite fragrance. Discover how the essence of Osmanthus flower intertwines with waves of classic Italian emerald peppermint and sweet spearmint." In 75 ml each. I have not seen these in the US as of yet, but you can find them in the UK at John Bell & Croyden for £7.50 a pop. Also, if you shop around, you can still find the Tea Collection in the US, and there's a Sweet & Sour Rhubarb [not shown; "Infused with a sweet, sour & delicious rhubarb flavour plus classic mint"] that I did not even know about, currently about $9 at Fragrancenet.
