A Bramley Bouquet with Moutan

At Bramley, we’ve always believed in the power of nature to bring a little more happiness into our everyday lives. That’s why our long-standing partnership with Moutan, the Hampshire-based florists led by the wonderfully creative Julie Allen, feels so special.

Stepping into Moutan’s beautiful stores in Odiham, Farnham and Hartley Wintney is like entering a serene botanical haven. Each space is thoughtfully curated with seasonal blooms, natural textures, and the quiet beauty of the countryside brought indoors. There’s a sense of calm and care in every corner, a celebration of the restorative power of nature.

It’s this same philosophy that lies at the heart of Bramley. Just like Moutan’s floral arrangements, our products are inspired by the British countryside, blending essential oils and botanicals to bring calm, balance and joy to everyday rituals. Together, we aim to create moments where nature’s beauty and wellbeing meet.

To mark our ongoing collaboration, Julie has created the Bramley Bouquet, a seasonal arrangement inspired by some of our favourite botanicals: yarrow, chamomile and spearmint.

We sat down with Julie to learn more about the story behind the bouquet, her journey as a florist, and her longstanding connection with Bramley.

Julie, how did you first discover Bramley?

"I first came across Bramley during a lovely weekend stay at The Pig in the New Forest, around 12 years ago. I remember using the hand wash and hand cream and being struck by their beautiful fragrance and richness, it felt so different from anything I’d used in hotels before. The natural botanical ingredients, the thoughtful recycled packaging, the whole ethos really captured me. We’ve been proudly stocking Bramley at Moutan ever since." – Julie Allen, Founder of Moutan

The Bramley Bouquet: A Seasonal Celebration

Each botanical in the Bramley Bouquet has been chosen not only for its beauty, but also for its natural benefits:

•    Yarrow and chamomile are known for their calming, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties.
•    Palmarosa brings a light, floral freshness that lifts the senses.
•    Spearmint adds an invigorating, refreshing note, a gentle wake-up call from nature.
Whether you're arranging your own flowers at home or simply pausing to enjoy their scent, we hope the Bramley Bouquet brings you a little of the same joy that inspired it.
