I put Velvet Rose and Vintage Rose on the menu in honor of Valentine’s Day. And of course, Rose Musc continues to be available in the Boutique group.
Also, I should clarify that the Lieu de Reves on the site now is the original. I’m working on a take off from Reves, but it will have a new name when it comes out and it will be in the Boutique group. The original Reves will remain Exclusive.
I was able to do some work on the amber and the incense this weekend between orders. I have the amber tester ready (it’s a half-way cross between the two approaches I’d been working on), and I made good progress on the Encens Tranquille tester. It wasn’t hard to tweak the ET a little bit…
I realized I hadn’t mentioned that Sonoma Scent Studio tied for 4 bronze medals in the SF Fragrance Salon in July (Top All Round Product Line, Best Gift Set, Most Seductive Scent, and Best New Product).

I worked on Encens Tranquille today; I added a light orris note that softens the sandal/incense/labdanum and I like it this way. The new labdanum is drier than the old so it feels less heavy, and I wanted to add a few other things to the base to offset that effect and stand up to…
I’ve been working on a summer scent that I had to put on hold a year ago after spending months on it, and I’m very pleased with how it is coming along. I want it to be a more natural take on a beachy summer floral, and I think I’m getting there. Almost time to…
I’m still catching up on lots of things and not quite ready to put the cart up, but I’m getting closer. My back is improving but is not ready yet. It feels like spring here with sunny weather and the first daffodils blooming — always makes me happy to see the first signs of spring….
Yin & Ylang is reviewed today on Now Smell This. Thanks so much, Jessica! Also, Tabac Aurea was enthusiastically reviewed by robes08 on Youtube. The Tabac Aurea part comes in at 23:09 but the video has a lot of fun reviews in it. Thank you, Marc-André! Samples and 5 ml of Yin & Ylang have…
Hello Laurie,
Oh man that’s good to know! I almost got LdR thinking it was like what you sent me and if that particular version isn’t what your selling at the moment then thank you for making that clear! I’ll wait patiently for the newest one then.
I hope all is well and that this winter is calm, happy and productive.
Truly,Tamara
Hi Tamara, glad that helped. The new one will be clear because it’ll have a new name; I’ve picked the name but will wait to post the name when I release it. Hope your winter is going well too! Mine is not calm but I’m shooting for productive, lol. Looking forward to spring.
