I’m back to blending and am getting very close on the floral musk I’d been working on before my break. I know I should get back to Amber Incense too, but I’m so close on this other scent that I need to try to finish. It would be great to get one of these nearly finished scents out before the end of the year, but we’ll see.
I have not forgotten about the interview series I started. I’ll have the next interview on Monday or Tuesday with someone I think you’ll find very interesting.
A new issue of Sniffapalooza Magazine is out today, and I like this quote by Andy Tauer about what it means to be a niche perfumer: “True niche is niche because of the quality of the fragrances, the creative energy that resides in it, the scents’ storylines and because of the love and passion of…
Wishing you a wonderful Easter weekend! My brother and his family are visiting for the weekend, so I’m looking forward to spending some time with them. We have rain, unfortunately, but I’m sure my nieces will still have an egg hunt tomorrow one way or another. I wanted a spring flower photo for this post…
Wishing everyone a very happy holiday. I posted this picture last year but thought it was cute and wanted to share it again this year (it’s a Christmas card we received last year from some relatives in Sweden). Hope you have a great time with family and have a chance to visit and reconnect after…

Thought I’d check in briefly. I’ve not been able to work on business things the last few days (which sure feels weird), but all orders have shipped. We’ve been having a heat wave — it was well over 100 degrees over the weekend, but back into the 90s today. I should be able to post…
Good news! I hope you feel much better.
Do you plan to bring back a shopping cart?
Thanks, Undina! Yes! I’d really like to do that in a few weeks. I’m hoping to find a new assistant first. 🙂 And I’m trying to make some quick headway on this blend too before opening up again. If anyone needs something in the meantime though, I’m taking a few orders via email request.
Hi, hope you are feeling better these days. Looking forward to the new perfume and the interviews. Take care!
Thank you!
Hi Laurie,

Happy to hear you’re feeling better Laurie! I can’t wait for the floral musk to be ready!

Glad things are improving for you! Looking forward to the new scents. 🙂
Thanks, Tara! Me too! 🙂
