In a marketplace awash with sameness, Saardé stands apart with a strong, coherent point of view. There’s a quiet confidence to their offering—a refined minimalism that doesn’t tip into sterility. I purchased two bags, a pair of olive wood spoons, and a bar of soap. Each item feels thoughtfully made. The materials and finishes suggest durability, though only time will confirm that promise. The olive wood utensils are, admittedly, an indulgence—I already own more than I reasonably need. And yet, the tactile pleasure and rustic elegance of Saardé’s craftsmanship made resistance futile.

THIS is how you run a business where people will return to time and time again. As someone who used to lead a Consumer Care team and specialised in this space, I was beyond impressed and look forward to using your products after we have renovated our home. Thank...
Read moreSaarde has been one of my favourite shopping experiences! Not only do they have such beautiful items ranging from soaps, homewares such as cushions and throws and/or blankets, they also sell the best perfumes and hand creams. Their oils are to die for, the fragrances are out of this world, I cannot recommend them enough, you won’t be disappointed. Try Saint Raphael room spray, perfume and hand cream and soaps!! I’ve been seated in back seats of cars and had the driver ask “what gorgeous smell is that?” It was Saint Raphael hand cream! I can’t recommend them high enough, one of the best shopping...
