Baylis & Harding Fuzzy Duck Collection

Bayliss & Harding Fuzzy Duck

Who knew! Set in the beautiful hamlet of Armscote in Warwickshire, The Fuzzy Duck is a boutique country retreat owned and restored by the family behind Baylis & Harding. So, it makes perfect sense that there’s a whole range of bath and body behind it.

However, although the retreat has the most beautiful, crisp and clean looking bedrooms that I want to move in right now, the Baylis & Harding Fuzzy Duck Collection isn’t quite living up to the contemporary luxury that it should. I’m burning the Hollyhock & Thyme candle right now and cannot smell a thing! It’s a lovely looking candle (label a bit wonky though), but there’s not enough scent for it to live up to its label of a ‘luxury scented candle’.

I’ve fared better with the Black Pepper & Sage Hand Wash, above, that gives a lovely, crisp scent to hands, but again, the label has creases. One of Bayliss & Harding’s major selling points is that it knocks brands like Molton Brown out of the equation on price, and usually, I’d say it’s a fabulous budget option – very similar in looks to MB (whose hand washes are £16 a time) – but this time, the candle is a fail. The hand wash, however, at £4, is great as long as you aren’t looking for a big, overwhelming whack of sage and black pepper.

    Both me and my husband can’t believe the amount of money we wasted on Baylis and Harding Candles, smell of nothing but plain wax! I am so angry! Glad you’re not the only one!

  2. I bought a few things from this range as Christmas presents this year – from BHS. I thought the packaging looked really expensive and I was tempted to keep a few things for myself. You have convinced me to go back & get a candle or two

    I love The Fuzzy Duck pub but totally agree on the candles. I have the cosy evenings by the fire one and it gives off zero scent

    I hate to be negative about a brand but I have to say from my experience Bayliss & Harding products are terrible (I’ve received a few as gifts from relatives who clearly think they’ve found a good option at an affordable price point – love the gift-givers, and the sentiment behind the gifts, sadly this brand takes the mickey out of both)
    In my opinion they knowingly and very cynically offer products designed to look like higher end brands such as Molton Brown, which wouldn’t be so bad if the contents were even halfway decent, but sadly they’re not, they’re absolutely awful.
    This brand actually makes me quite angry, the products are uniformly so bad that it must be a deliberate decision to go for the cheapest possible formulations and ingredients but try to pass them off as “like high end” with the rip-off packaging. Profit margins in decent-quality options are still notoriously high so I honestly believe there’s no excuse for peddling such trash, Jo
    P.S. Sorry for rant, I really hate such shifty conning of consumers… 🙁

      I must say that this is my first experience that hasn’t been good. I burned the candle for a whole day and there was virtually no scent at all. However, the handwashes are perfectly good in my book – especially when there can only be marginal differences between theirs at £4 and Molton Brown, for example, at £16. But, this will be good for them to know I think. Sometimes you have to see it said out loud.
