Gold on the hillside.

Bright golden gorse is one of Ireland's most recognisable wild plants. Its vivid flowers light up hillsides, coastlines, and rugged landscapes throughout much of the year, often blooming when little else will.

An old Irish saying claims that when gorse is out of bloom, kissing is out of fashion, reflecting its remarkable ability to flower almost continuously. Despite thriving in harsh conditions, gorse produces blossoms with a delicate coconut fragrance: a surprising softness hidden within its tough exterior.

The Gorse Collection celebrates the resilience that allows us to keep shining through life's storms, while remaining gentle at heart.
