Alisios Canarios

OK, so you KNOW how much we love Teror, hidden away in the mountains (OK, VOLCANO) of Gran Canaria, a village that is on the verge of being a town! You also know we love the Cathedral (El Señora Nuestra de Pino there is another review!). And now, there is the splendid little store of Alisios Canarias, which sells natural, organic, local perfumes, aftershaves, eaux de toilette, soaps, locally produced arts and crafts and some nice touristy stuff (OK, fridge magnets get over it!). We first found the store a few years back, and then, like Brigadoon, couldn’t find it again. But we did a few weeks back and gleefully purchased some splendid new aftershaves. There is one that is based on Poinsettia, and one called Lava containing you guessed, tiny little bits of lava, as well as the actual aftershave! The store is WELL worth a visit and the staff are charming too!
