Molton Brown

moltonbrown2.jpg

There was a Molton Brown craze in Kuwait a few years back, I dont know how it exactly it came about, but damn I love the smell of the Molton Brown soap. I remember the first time I tried it was on the British Airways flight and I know that helped spread the name of Molton Brown like wild fire.

The funny part is during that period they immediatly opened a store in Kuwait which closed after sometime, I wasnt aware how long it took, and I didnt know why it wasnt succesful here since lots of people really like it. I was in the states at the time and you had to order from the UK to get the product so I used to order the soap just to wash my hands with. It was clean and it smelt so damn nice. They also had a really nice aftershave cream, some people like Nivea and I like it too but the Molton Brown was a little different and felt good. I dont even know if they sell Molton Brown anywhere in Kuwait, but I will be asking someone to pick some up for me from London if they are stopping by anytime soon in London.

    1. You have very good taste.
    2. Where’s Va Va Voom?
    3. Just let me know what you want, if you can’t find it at VVV.

    How twisted is my mind that as soon as my eyes hit the title my mind hit booze related places?

    Don’t get me wrong, I don’t drink (for religious reasons obviously), the sight of the stuff in airport duty frees makes me twitchy, but I fell in love with the art of bartending over the course of several movies, most prominently pre-openly crazy Cruise’s Cocktail. I kept researching, making imaginary drinks for friends because what’s not cool about being a bartender (outside of the whole evils of alcohol business). Also I could always channel the knowledge into writing a character in that line of work, and hey presto, nothing wasted.

    Although, that whole Molton/Molson thing may have had something to do with my love of all things Canada. Because if you’re going to write a Canadian character *of course* they’re going to be all snooty and all ‘you Americans and your screwing in a canoe beer’.

    Umm.. as you can see I am overly obsessed with characterization. And I write comments that are way too long.

    P.S. moocherx Va Va Voom is in Marina Mall near the end, on the side across from The One.
