Gallant je vůně stvořená pro moderního muže, který si cení elegance, síly a sebejistoty. Její svěží a energický úvod otevírají ovocné tóny s nádechem šťavnatého bergamotu a citronu, doplněné lehkým mořským akcentem, který dodává vůni čistotu a jiskru. V srdci se rozvíjí mužná harmonie levandule, pelargonie a rozmarýnu, obohacená o jemné akordy kosatce, které přinášejí sofistikovanou hloubku. Základ vůně tvoří ambroxan, pačuli a smyslné dřevité tóny s dotekem tonkových bobů a pižma. Díky tomu působí Gallant moderně, charismaticky a zanechává dlouhotrvající stopu, která podtrhne přirozený šarm nositele. Gallant je ideální volbou pro každodenní nošení i speciální příležitosti – vůně, která nikdy nezůstane bez povšimnutí.

In stories of astonishing compression and insight, Mavis Gallant wrote of characters severed from their home, exiles disconnected from each other and from themselves. Tracing the fault lines of the post-war world in the intimate lives of her characters, she could conjure an entire worldview in a telling gesture or passing comment. This new volume, selected and introduced by Tessa Hadley, collects the finest work from across Gallant's career. Here are stories of young men returning from wartime internment to changed families, snobbish social climbers haunted by the words of their downtrodden colleagues, and children peering through glass at the secrets and infidelities of their parents. Complex, moving and painfully true, they secure her position among the world's great short story writers.

This is a story of physical bravery, moral courage, and the power of redemption from the man who led the charge in stopping the terrorist attack at Fishmongers' Hall in November 2019. From cell fires to violent feuds and gang battles on prison wings, after being sentenced to life imprisonment for murder, what Steve witnessed at HMP Frankland made him change his life forever. After losing everything, he vowed to never use violence again. In November 2019, Steve's redemptive journey led him to a Learning Together event at Fishmongers' Hall, hosted by his mentor, Jack Merritt, and attended by Saskia Jones. It was here, on his first day out of prison on day release, that Steve was forced to break his vow as he bravely confronted and fought armed-terrorist Usman Khan on London Bridge. Armed just with a narwhal tusk, Steve wrestled and held Khan to the ground while he waited for the police to arrive. In October 2020 Steve was granted a royal prerogative of mercy in recognition of his actions at London Bridge. In August 2021 he was released from prison. This is Steve Gallant's powerful and inspiring story of redemption told in full for the first time.
