‘This niche fragrance gets me more compliments than any other - and it's £25!'
Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more As a beauty journalist, I've tried more perfumes than I care to admit. My shelves are stacked with plenty of bottles from big-name designer scents to buzzy celeb launches and yet, this little-known niche perfume is the one I keep coming back to. But after years of spritzing and sniffing, I'd finally found a fragrance that stands out and funnily enough, almost no one's heard of it – which is, what I think, makes it so special. From Diem, a London-based fragrance house that's changed how we shop for scent by offering gender-neutral, sustainable scents in small batches and 10ml bottles, comes Love Tangle Eau de Parfum. This surprising fragrance is described by Diem as a scent for the wild at heart. It smells like fragrant honeysuckle and roses winding through overgrown countryside hedgerows, like blackcurrants ripening in the sun, and its warm, musky base really clings to your skin. It starts off bright and juicy, but dries down into something warmer and more grounded. It's the kind of scent that people will ask about – trust me. Featuring notes of cassis, peony, musk and sandalwood make Diem's Love Tangle Eau de Parfum a fruity, feminine scent that lingers on the skin for hours. It's a fresh, youthful scent but sophisticated at the same time. BUY NOW FOR £25 After spritzing it on pulse points and setting foot outside, someone actually stopped me in the street to ask what fragrance I was wearing and, if you're based in London, you'll know this to be a very rare event! If you're thinking that niche fragrance brands don't have a lot to offer in comparison to the likes of say, Dior or YSL, you'd be sadly mistaken. Diem is quietly gaining fans among fragrance lovers and beauty editors alike. As a British fragrance house, it's all about telling stories and conveying emotion through scent. Who hasn't had a memory evoked by a certain fragrance before? More Trending What's so great is that shoppers can purchase the brand's smaller 10ml bottles so you're never wasting product or tossing out a half-used, gone-off bottle. The brand's heart is in sustainability too. Ingredients are all sourced from ethical, environmentally-conscious suppliers, and they've cut back on excess packaging wherever possible. Scent is such a personal thing but, (maybe this is just me) I'm finding more often than not, we're all wearing the same ones. Baccarat Rouge 540, Santal 33, and Black Opium, are all gorgeous and smell amazing, but they just don't feel unique anymore. That's why I'm going to stick to my Diem Love Tangle Eau de Parfum vehemently, and continue to share my love for niche fragrance houses and their incredible scents.

Poundland sale ‘to be confirmed' in just HOURS as hundreds of high street stores and jobs at risk
THE sale of discount chain Poundland is reportedly set to be confirmed in a matter of hours. The deal will put thousands of high street jobs at risk with the parent firm planning a major restructure, according to Sky News. Pepco Group has owned the 818-strong retail chain since 2016. It is understood that a number of investment firms and private equity groups are among those to have tabled proposals to buy the business since it was put on the market earlier this year. Laura Ashley owner Gordon Brothers is reportedly among the favourites to strike a deal. The Telegraph previously reported that up to 200 Poundland stores could face closure as part of a rescue sale. Pepco said it is looking to offload the brand amid a wider shift away from food and drinks with a deal expected before the end of its financial year in September. It came as the group reported weak Poundland sales over the past half-year cutting the brand's trading guidance for the year as a result. Stephan Borchert, chief executive of Pepco, said: "At Poundland, trading remains challenging, which is reflected in a profit outturn below expectations for H1 and a weaker outlook for the full year. "Barry Williams, who was reappointed as Poundland managing director in March 2025, and his team are actively driving a recovery plan to help turn around the business by refocusing on its traditional core strengths." Poundland revenues dropped by 6.5 per cent to €985million (£830million) for the six months to March compared with a year earlier. The brand suffered "challenges across all categories" and had 18 net store closures over the period. Walkthrough Poundland's first £1million store Poundland is now due to deliver earnings of between €0 and €20million (£16.9million) compared with previous guidance of €50million and €70million. The wider Poland-based Pepco Group saw total revenues grow by 4.3 per cent to €3.34billion (£2.82billion) for the half-year. However, like-for-like sales were marginally lower as growth in its Pepco brand was offset by the struggling Poundland operation.

Can former Rangers boss revive Scottish firm Sterling?
Around this time last year, the Tillicoultry-based company was looking forward to what it hoped would be a brighter future following a difficult spell. After implementing 50 redundancies and closing stores in 2023 in response to a 'historic lack of action taken to address the cost base', the company's then chief executive, John Pattison, spoke boldly of awakening a 'sleeping giant' in an interview with The Herald in May 2024. 'I think Sterling has phenomenal potential to realise,' Mr Pattison declared at the time. 'It has been a solid business across five decades now but, given the foundations we have, the next decade could be really exciting [with] very interesting opportunities coming to us. 'With a new strategy in place, [there is] an opportunity for us to really grow into something quite special, something that both the family who own the business, the team, and indeed Scotland can be proud of.' As far as one is able to detect in interview situations, it was clear Mr Pattison – a veteran of the furniture industry – held a good deal of confidence in the potential of Sterling. But in business there are always events that are beyond the control of company chiefs, and so it seems to have proved for Sterling. Despite the hopes expressed by Mr Pattison, 2024 proved to be a tumultuous year for both Sterling and the wider retail sector. As consumer confidence was laid low by high interest rates and painful inflation, putting pressure on retail sales across the board, the company itself faced rising operational costs. The latest accounts for Sterling, which The Herald covered exclusively this week, highlighted 'legacy decisions and over-investment in anticipation of growth that did not materialise', as the company slumped to a loss of nearly £4 million for the year ended August 31, 2024. Read more: Mr Pattison left the company in November, and a new leadership team has been installed, led by chief executive Stewart Robertson and chairman Bernard Dunn. The new team quickly took action to further address costs at the retailer, with an unspecified number of redundancies – largely in operational roles – announced in February. This move came ahead of significant cost rises in April, when the increases in employer national insurance contributions and national living wage, announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves in the Autumn Budget, took effect. In an interview with The Herald this week, Mr Robertson, a former managing director of Rangers Football Club, gave a sober assessment of the difficult trading environment Sterling and the wider retail industry faced during the period covered by the accounts, and continue to encounter, as the outlook for the UK economy remains bleak. Mr Robertson, also a former secretary of Motherwell Football Club, signalled that the changes made since his arrival – his appointment as chief executive is now permanent after he initially joined on an interim basis – have solidified Sterling's foundations and put the company in a position to return to growth. Further investment is planned, including an overhaul of the company's flagship store where the launch of a new leather gallery later this summer will form part of plans to bring the 'magic dust' back to its Tillicoultry home. Mr Robertson also suggested that Sterling, which was founded by George Knowles in 1975 when he converted an old mill in Tillicoultry into a furniture showroom, could open further stores, and perhaps return to cities such as Inverness that it had previously exited. But he emphasised that the strategy would be anchored on 'careful growth'. Reflecting on the actions that he and Mr Dunn, a former head of insurance broker TL Dallas in Scotland, have taken since joining the company, Mr Robertson said: 'It has been a case of really looking at what the business has needed, and we have re-set the cost base [to] make sure we have got really strong foundations to take the business forward in a sustainable way, but also in a way that is going to grow the business as well. There are still opportunities there for us [but] it needs to be considered growth, it needs to be careful growth.' He added: 'There are areas where we are not located but maybe were in the past. Take Inverness, as an example, that is an area we would certainly look at going back into if a good site became available at the right cost. A number of the economics would need to stack up, but certainly there is a desire to do that and to look at continuing to grow the organisation, but doing it at the right time in the right places with the right level of investment.' That Mr Robertson sees an opportunity to grow one of Scotland's most venerable retailers is surely to be welcomed by those with the interests of the Scottish economy at heart, and not least because of the 440 people the company employs across its 10 stores and other operations. Read more: There are likely to be generations of Scots who wish Sterling well. Some of a certain vintage will fondly recall the long-running television adverts for the retailer voiced by sports presenter Dougie Donnelly in the 1980s (featuring the famous catchline 'Sterling, Tillicoultry, near Stirling'). Others will recall the days, as Mr Robertson noted, when people would go to visit the Tillicoultry store for a 'day out'. But powerful though nostalgia is, fond memories will not be enough to ensure success, as Mr Robertson will know only too well. At a time of subdued economic growth and continuing concern over the cost of living, and with competition tough on the high street, plotting Sterling's return to growth will not be easy. But at least Mr Robertson can go about his business without the glare and constant scrutiny that characterised his time at Rangers.
