A note from a recent order from a customer DI. When you include these notes, it makes my day!
Jill, I just got your package! It's just so beautiful it's beautifully packed and you've got a label on the box so you know who it's from, which I love! And opening it up and that wonderful lavender mint bath salt, Wow! The beaufiful bag it's in is such a gift in its self. I want to share your wonderful products with everyone. Signed, DI

Learning about scents and fragrance notes is something you could spend an entire lifetime studying and still never completely understand. And honestly, that’s part of the magic.

Why? Because each of us has a different body chemistry. A fragrance that smells wonderful on Jill may smell completely different on Jack.

Here’s an inside tip I’ve learned in my thirty years of designing personal fragrance:

If your nose loves a scent, there’s a very good chance your chemistry will love it too.

I can’t tell you exactly why it works that way, but after three decades of creating and blending fragrance, I’ve learned to trust your nose.

Sometimes, your nose knows. Trust it. 🌿

What do I do when I run out of something I love. For example, Our Dry Oil. I make more. More for me, and more for you!

We have one Bon Fire Embers + Harvest Moon Beeswax Candle left. This was a limited edition that we introduced last week, so we're pleased as pudding with the response. You're going to love these clean burn candles! I mentioned that I've been burning Pumpkin Caramel Latte and how it throws the amazing fall scent throughout my main floor. Lovely, just lovely!

I can honestly say that this season’s fall and winter soaps are some of the best we’ve made in thirty years.

And I have to admit, I love being able to say “thirty years.”

Thirty years of making, creating, learning, changing, growing—and countless moments in between. Each bar carries a little piece of that journey.

Thirty years. A milestone made up of moments. 🤎

It's time to re-fresh. The word fresh is a powerful word when it comes to skincare!
